Grimsby Town - Sat 18th Jan

[Legohead]

Most on the Codheads fishy forum are predicting we'll take between 50 - 100 fans to BP. Can see about 250 myself. Anyone else think the Mariners fans are doing us a disservice?

Can't see it being 250, I'd guess around 150-ish.

"Official" Exiles contingent of 7 travelling up from Kings X tomorrow morning.

I doff my cap to all Grecians making the trek to Humberside in mid-January. It's a long way from virtually everywhere.
Wishing you all 3 points and more importantly, safe journeys

Humberside hasn't existed since 1996. It's North East Lincolnshire if you don't mind.

 

[Billy The Fish]

So we're clear about this. Grimsby is in Cleethorpes and Humberside is in Lincolnshire ....got that everyone ?

What's the connection between Grimsby Town and the school in Tiverton?

Loved it in there.
A old gas fire on.A Valor Dream(fitted loads of them in the late 1980s) to warm my hands up.
Around 1pm a local old boy was refused service “because you have had enough”
Don’t hear that in a Weatherspoons !

In Wetherspoons in Barnstaple about 11am last Saturday before catching the Train to SJP for the Cambridge game and a Bloke was asked to leave cos he was asleep at a table ,The pub was quite busy so he must've been tired to sleep through all the noise .

Cracking day out although the rail works meant the journey was very long indeed (particularly on the way back - well over three hours from Doncaster to Kings X).

As usual stopped in at the Number 2 at Cleethorpes station pre-match, but having picked up a flier for it in the micro pub at Donny on the way up we decided to trek Grimsby-ward after the match to take in a swift one at Dock's Beer (not to be confused with the excellent Beer Dock in Crewe) before another trek to Grimsby Town station just in time to make our train.
