Description: Sports: Football / Sport Topic: Football Clubs & Teams

Newest Review: ... over wages led to the club being basically unable to sign players for more than nominal fees for at least 5 years. In that time ITV digital collapsed and we were consecutively relegated to the basement division. We then had a moment in the sun under the management of Russel Slade, the team played decent football and went within two minutes of promotion until a goal by Northampton stopped us ... more

 ... from it sutomatically and the loss of the play-off final to a poor Cheltenham side has sent the club into a downward spiral. Slade left saying that the board refused to fund additonal players and we have had three managers since but the slide down the ...more

Oh, Grimsby Town please improve!!!! I've been a Grimsby Town fan all my life, my grandfather played for them in the 1950's and is a honorary member of the club, in his days Grimsby were a team in the what is now called the Championship and more than held there own at that level. In his time he's seen the club beat nearly every major football side in England including Liverpool, Tottenham, Everton (when they were the champion of england and probably the best side in Europe), Newcastle, Man City, etc etc. You get my drift In fact I can remember going to the last game of the 1985 season when if we'd beat Chelsea by about 10-0 then we would have been ...  Read the complete review

From the greatest fish port in Europe, possibly the world hails a mighty football team. A team of skill, a team of endurance, a team of pure genius. I’m sure you will all now who I am talking about but in case you don’t know too much about the great sport itself I will tell. We are talking Grimsby Town. I thought now was the time to write an opinion about my local team close to my heart. I used to be a regular at Blundell Park watching Grimsby Town as often as I can. Today if you look they are top of Division One after beating Barnsley at home 1-0. I wish I believed myself when I say they will finish at the top at the end of the season. It’s ...  Read the complete review

I'm not a massive long - life supporter of Grimsby Town, because if you've read any of my other opinions you'll know I love Manchester United. However, living across the Humber from Britain's biggest Industrial Town, and Grimsby obviously being the best team in the Yorkshire/Lincolshire area, I sometimes spare a Saturday to see them play. Grimsby Town aren't the best of teams; I'll admit to that. However, I feel they deserve to be where they are, in the first division. The supporters have high hopes of seeing the Mariners in the Premiership, but they have to be realistic, Grimsby won't make it, unless they suddenly get better. As ...  Read the complete review

I have supported Grimsby Town ever since I was a boy, and I go and watch all their macthes when they are playing a London team. Lately, however, they have been playing very poorly, and they have had a disastrous start to this season, and are now in the bottom section of the First Division table. They are well reknowned as a selling club, and have now lost their manager who was brilliant and they are selling all their best players. We have to be realistic in saying that they are probably never going to get into the Premiership, because they simply do not have the funds with which to attact the best players, like Fulham and Watford do. They are ...  Read the complete review

Premium Review Grimsby FC: Lawrance- Town's saviour? (252 words)
by - written on 02/10/00 (9 readings)

I realise that i am very outspoken on this topic but i thought i may as well see if anyone is at least willing to humour me. For me the sacking of Alan Buckley was nothing more than a miracle. I personally never forgave him for running off to W.B.A and then comming back to us with his tail firmly placed inbetween his legs! However it would appear as thought for the first time ever the Grimsby Town Board of Directors has done somthing in the interests of the club. The sacking of Lawrance from Luton was to say the least a bit of a shock...but it was nothing in comparison to him declaring his intention for the vacant job at Grimsby town. Lawrance can only do as ...  Read the complete review
