I got this message from DAVID SUTHERAN:

Could you please post the following message on your board? I am writing a history of Hartlepool United Intermediates 1977 to 1986 & have drawn a lot of blanks on games played away to Grimsby Town. Does anyone on this forum have anything for Town v Hartlepool for this period? Newspaper clippings/photos/team line ups etc. I intend to publish a book and all contributors will be acknowledged no matter how much is sent. This history is like a smashed vase and am piecing it bit by bit, our local newspaper Hartlepool Mail was taken over by Johnson Press approx. 20 years ago and all admin was moved to Sheffield. As part of the closing our newspaper offices, they hired in skips and sent archives/old papers/negatives & photos to the tip (the full shooting match). Our local reference library has microfilm copies of paper reports for quite a few of the home games but very little on the Grimsby Town away matches. If anyone can help even with bits of info. it would be much appreciated Cheers, - Dave

Please reply if you can help him. I can provide email or mobile if required.

Dave, have you seen this site?

I don't have an account at the moment but the Grimsby paper is there, and the Hartlepool ones too. No need for microfiche! Although I can't testify to how complete it is.

They won, every game. Or at least it seems like that against them!
