What amazed me was Grimsby's history in the top flight for many years, looks at the 1930's Division One table. (For you young kids the Premier League)
Grimsby (8 Viewers)
- Thread starter Liquid Gold

Was thinking of dragging someone along. Mind you who wants to go to Grimsby!
You don't have to go to Grimsby. We play in Cleethorpes.

I take your point, but I meant the overall experience of league 2 football against Grimsby is a hard one to sell.
This comment will probably end up on the codalmighty website.

Not for me. It was one of the games I pinpointed going to at the beginning of the season.
Give me that over a day out at a sterile out of town (admittedly it's Cleethorpes but that is a place) identikit stadium

Still think there will be a good 1,500 there. More looking forward to the Notts County and Mansfield trips were we should take a decent crowd.

I will be there - have sat in that away end before and it's a bit grim, especially compared to other grounds nowadays since the standard of football grounds has improved so much. It will be a proper old school blast from the past though especially if it's sunny and if it's a good game.
Chips, beers on the seafront, the SBA in full force, first away of the season - one not to be missed!!

Not going to sell 1800 though which is a bit disappointing.

I'm going and I can't wait, but to convince fans of Villa, United etc to come is a bit tricky!

But you have to go through a bit of Grimsby to get there from the direction of Coventry.

Im looking forward to this game, a traditional stadium with a atmosphere, how football should be and thankfully it's in August so should be nice, rather than a chilly winter game.
Both sets of fans will be hopeful of a win after good opening day wins and they've a good vocal support, but so have we on the road. All in all a good first away game of the season, but it won't be a easy one.

When I was about 7 I decided to support a team from every one of the other three divisions. I chose Blackpool, Grimsby and Workington Town. God knows what has happened to Workington, but I still occasionally look out for Grimsby and Blackpool's results. Hope it's a good game.

Workington sounds like a place from kids TV.

I think of Grimsby and am always reminded of the film 30 Days of Night.
