A lot of people who were absent for today's win who would have been absolutely delighted, not least Swin. It was a privilege to observe our season climax and glorious success. Just sad that they couldn't be there too.

There are many fallen Mariners, including my father, who will be looking down with a smile on their faces. Thank you all for your past support.


You can please some of the forumites some of the time but not all the forumites all of the time

My Grandad, a lifelong Mariner, died in January. However, his demise seemingly prompted our reversal of fortunes. We lost at Wrexham the Tuesday afterwards but then got into very good form and obviously won the playoffs. Thank you Grandad


I've wasted my life in black and white, a pathetic act for a worthless cause

My old man was a regular in the old barrett’s stand along with his brother. Both have unfortunately passed away but I’d like to think both were having a drop of the good stuff up there

My little sister taken in the pandemic would have been by my side yesterday,  i cried in happiness but also sadness knowing she wasn't there taking the urine out of me like she would have all day.

I miss her sooo much taken at 28 years old.  Yesterday was for her and all the fallen mariners.

Thanks paul, I love you amy and GTFC.

My uncle died in February. I met my cousins at half-time and they had brought with them his picture to bring us luck.

Thank you uncle we made you proud.

You sometimes drive me crazy

My wonderful, wonderful father in law of 20 years, again sadly taken too soon through covid.

Although not strictly a Town fan (he was West Ham), I dragged him to enough NL sh1te holes for us to be his second team.

He would have been there yesterday with the rest of us (his family).
