I and a couple of mates travel to away games by train wherever possible. When there are no cancellations or disruptions it is an easy way to travel. Enjoy the journey, but, hopefully, not the result

There was a period when Crewe seemed to beat Grimsby on a regular basis,whatever their respective league position. In last few fixtures Grimsby have done a little better I believe (?) Grimsby have started to get some form, starting Luker and Obikwu has certainly helped and the return to some...

I certainly think we are a long way off challenging for promotion despite being in 8th place. Personally I never expected to be in the top 10 but being up there has increased expectations, but feel that will only result in exaggerated disappointment. It will take at least two more windows to...

You clearly watch a lot of Grimsby. Seems a little odd

Ainley on the wing? What game you watching? The wide players were Luker on the right and Barrington on the left! Even after the substitution Ainley was never on the wing. You can’t be very old as in the past Blundell Park often won awards for the best pitch in whatever division . That won’t be...

I suspect, having drawn our first game of the season last Saturday, that having broken the seal, the floodgates will open and we see a plethora of draws for GTFC starting v Colchester. As an aside, it was only a few weeks ago that Chesterfield were heading for automatic promotion with the best...

Thompson back is a huge plus. Think it will be a few weeks until he is capable of 90 minutes but with Green out suspended next week he may start and McEachran pushing further forward. Luker looked good to me in the 2nd half although I thought he was dire and totally disinterested in midweek in...

Although I am considerably older than you, I think if it is of all time then you have to pay homage to the team of the 1930’s- two FA Cup semi finals and finishing In the top echelons of the Top tier. Pat Glover 180 league goals in 227 appearances, Hall, Betmead and Buck. George Tweedy etc In...

He looked very ‘chunky’. Must be on a decent wage? Good to see Grimsby fielding a string in teenagers, gives the kids an opportunity to play against seasoned pro’s

Longest trip of the season for Grimsby for our Europa League fixture at Newport. iirc it is something like 4 miles further than Gillingham! Disappointed to learn that the Tiny Rebel Tap room in the City centre has closed! Not the most exciting game for either set of fans but Grimsby will be...

My dog loves opera ( and is also partial to a bit of ballet )

Agree. Can’t see much business being done in January. It has become primarily a loan window

Can’t recall your ‘better chances’ tbh and a challenge on /jumping into the keeper,who has his arms above his head attempting to catch the ball, is always going to be given as a foul. It’s in the laws!. Anyway, I have to say I expected more from the home team but nevertheless are grateful for...

I think Grimsby are about the least shithousery team in League 2, certainly no over the top time wasting or feigning injury today

I thought it was a clear foul on Wright. Whistle went immediately and well before it was put in the net. Disappointed with AFCW, thought they would be far better than they were, more direct than I expected. Buigel and Stevens are highly rated but didn’t do a lot. Their best player was probably...

For last season’s midweek fixture we found a cracking craft beer place in Tooting Broadway Market, tiny but welcoming.

Often read about how many London based Mariners there are, but there were plenty of NELincs Town fans at Gillingham on a Tuesday night ( certainly the majority amongst the away fans). The same at Tranmere, the vast majority being Gy & Clee based

I am sure you will have more than enough to take the 3 points this weekend. I usually cringe when posters talk down their own team but I honestly believe Grimsby have more points than they deserve. We have been heavily beaten at home on a regular basis, and although, at first glance, our away...

That’s what we did a few weeks ago. There aren’t really any decent pubs in Gillingham, so we had a few beers in and around Kings Cross and St Pancras then got the train which took around 40 minutes iirc

What isn’t nice?????
