Cheap and cheerless: players talk to each other, and one of the things they talk about is the shabby way
#gtfc
under John Fenty treats its players and staff.
@LloydGriffith
lifts the lid
Why don't we just try and have the same class as Jolley and instead of dwelling on Rose's less effective games, say thanks and all the best to the lad - he always tried his hardest, and when it came to penalties he had bollocks like cannonballs. Cheers Mitch, good lad.

We are Town: creating the future we deserve. As the new chair of Grimsby Town,
@jstockwood
is coming home in the most meaningful way. In a new article for CA, he makes a request and a commitment to his fellow
#gtfc
fans.

Yep, we're never coming to terms this. Last eight consists of
⚽️Four of the top eight in the PL
⚽️First, second and fourth in the Championship
⚽️Sixteenth in League Two

bedtime story about a company called Hampton Capital Ltd? In July 2012, a man representing Hampton named Alick Mayweather approached Tolent Construction with a proposal to assist in the purchase and development of land in Durham
We're playing a team 3 divisions higher and we've got no central defenders. There's every chance of a big old tonking. But today is about reminding them we're here.
#GTFC
aren't just the last 15 years. Whatever happens, be proud of who we are. We are Town.
So where's the chippy?
If someone burned down your house 20 years ago, it was wrong. It's still wrong now. There's nothing alright about the franchise. Fuck MK Dons and everything about them.
Zen like station announcer at Faringdon Station yesterday.
" Welcome to the brand new Elizabeth line. I promise I will stop calling it the brand new Elizabeth line soon."
Sleepwalking into a relegation battle. Shambles of window and now this, should be beating likes of Crewe by at least 6 or 7, not 3. Unacceptable. Questions need to be asked, forum should be interesting, blah blah effing blah

New feature: The remarkable story of the
#gtfc
badge competition and its winning designer, George Palejowski, should be celebrated, yet is not widely known.
@pganderson
spoke to George's son Jan about the iconic design and its creator:
Fans of Premier League clubs: stfu about players from your 'rival' club supposedly letting down the England side, nobody outside your overhyped bubble of self-regard gives a shit, please keep your contrived partisan bollocks away from the national team altogether, cheers, ta xx
Don't want a "scotch egg doesn't get you three points" row but this sort of post pops up repeatedly on social media. Food at
#gtfc
becoming a benchmark for football grounds everywhere is something to be proud of. Great work

@MarinersTrust
, and of course the vendors
As well as all the disturbing
#gtfc
events of yesterday, did a Scunny caller on RH really reckon it was going to be tough in Division Six(N) because opponents would "want to claim a Championship club scalp"? Mate, we had a week in Skiathos in 1996 but we're not Greek
@officialgtfc
Hard to see any of the list go but special word for
@MaxWright1998
. A pleasure watching him progress through the
#gtfc
ranks, just so sad that injury got in the way. Many special moments but the third V Wrexham will live long in the memory. All the best mate.

There's been a positive culture change among
#GTFC
fans. We're now seeing patient encouragement for the young players coming through. Still the odd dickhead, but we've come a long way since the bad old days. It feels really good.
Player breaks record for goals scored in one league division since that division was renamed 104 years after being formed to reflect a newly uneven distribution of broadcasting revenue, during time period that has no relation or relevance to football season
If you go on a public forum and ask "how many games do you give" to a manager who's been in charge for about ten minutes, you're not just asking a question. You're part of the problem.
#gtfc
Scunny, your plight looks like ours last season. Look on the bright side:
✅Swann might sling his hook
✅Lincoln followed us down in 2011, look at them now
✅You might visit
#gtfc
to try our foie gras infused Bovril
✅FA Trophy, a Champions League version of the Lincs Senior Cup
Handled well by
@officialgtfc
here. There are issues, not unique to
#gtfc
or football, and we'll be damned if we'll let a Tory mouthpiece rag pretend to be the moral voice on the broken society they're enabling
We're delighted to be sponsoring
@MullarkeyToby
's kit this season. Our thanks go to CA's Tony & Sue for setting it up and Matthew at
@officialgtfc
for arranging.
#gtfc
There are thousands who would not be so devoted to
#gtfc
if they, their parents or grandparents, had not had Matt Tees help them fall in love with the game. Our thoughts are with the family and friends of the great man. A tribute from two years ago:
#gtfc
Anything up to and including a 17-0 defeat today for
#gtfc
is acceptable. Any moaners will be sentenced to one year at HMP Glanford with no parole and only a copy of the 2010 Season VHS for company.
Pissed off. But well played
#GTFC
and good luck
#CPFC
. Good hosts, top fans, go on and win the cup. Genuinely great to visit you again after so long. Pissed off though. Really pissed off.
25th February 1984 - Dave Booth wins manager of the month as Grimsby make it 16 without defeat in Division Two, winning 1-0 at Crystal Palace through a goal from Tony Ford.

Batch, Cumming, Crombie, Waters, Nicholl, K Moore, Ford, Wilkinson, Drinkell, Bonnyman, Emson

Tony's FT: 5-4! Town’s greatest victory ever over hubris and Hollywood. And what a delicious irony - we won with a Big Luke header from a long chuck. C’est magnifique. C’est Grimsby. My head hurts
#gtfc
Since when did a Head of Recruitment get you three year deals for highly rated prospects on a Saturday, etc. Nice mention and insight for Joe and the gaffer here

Number Crunching:
In the 2007 accounts alone, £573,796 was squandered by JF on his Great Coates white elephant. He wants every penny back.
A similar amount in non-refundable season ticket sales was given by fans to the club in 2020/21 who might not attend a single game
Thanks
@ColinMurray
for asking the
#gtfc
question. You'll have gathered from his reaction that he was struggling with the truth. Drop us a note if you'd like to hear a proper explanation. Thanks also
@QuestTV
for tagging us, the replies have taught us several new swear words
An early call is necessary for today's Thunderdiary because you'll want to read it at least twice. The idiosyncrasies, the anticipation, the roaring and screaming, the joy. Keep the faith
#gtfc
, they'll come again
Grateful to make my full EFL debut for my boyhood club. A proud day for me & my family! Bitter sweet in that we never got the win we deserved but things will turn if we keep believing and working hard. Thanks for all the messages, overwhelmed with the amount of support!🙌⚫️⚪️
Could go bonkers thinking/talking about the mess the National League have made. Might be time to draw a line. Sod 'em. We are going to make this a brilliant occasion, no matter what. It could be a day that we cherish forever, and we can't bloody wait. Come on Town

@jstockwood
You cocked it up,
#gtfc
should have signed Conteh, Mullarkey, Rose, Rodgerseses etc yesterday at 10.59pm. Window fans would be toasting the greatest window since double glazing was invented.
