Town 7 - Scunny 1

I wasn't there, in fact I wasn't even born but that'll do for me.


You fill up my senses,
Like a barrel of Tetley's,
Like a packet of Woodbine,
Like a good pinch of snuff,
Like a night out in Cleethorpes,
Like a greasy chip butty,
O, Super Black and Whites,
Come fill me again
Na na naa naa naa naaaa TOWN!!
Na na naa naa na na naaaa
Na na naa naa na naaa naaa
Na na naa naa naa naaaaaaa!!!!!

Quoted from Martz86
My first game 3-0 win over Ipswich, I'm sure that game was just ment to lure me in as it's been down hill from there!


That's one I'll always remember too. Super Clive's comeback game after what felt like an eternity out injured. 90 minutes later....boom...Mendonca hattrick... and you'd have never known he'd been away.

Grimsby Town 4     Sheffield Utd 0

1979/80 Third Division championship season and Town had to win to be champions. Stood in the Barratt and witnessed a sublime display topped off with a Kevin Drinkell hat-trick............. happy (very happy) days.


me too, wish there was footage

More recently, the 3-2 win against Bournemouth two seasons ago seemed to have a lot. Colgan clangers, hand of cod, red card after half a minute and a last minute winner from an on-loan super sub. That's probably my favourite home match for bloody years.

Some great games mentioned but my all-time favourite is Grimsby 3 Barnsley 2. Good Friday in 1982. Barnsley were going for promotion. They went 2-0 up but then Town inspired by Trevor Whymark (easily the most skilful player I've seen in the Black and White stripes) started to play.....
The faces of the Barnsley fans at the end were a mixture of pure shock and rage


This one, was it boxing day ? maybe not. Remember Batch sprinting 100 yards to "commiserate" with their fans at the end. Pure old style town.

3-1 v Notts County in the League Cup.  Not sure when it was exactly - probably 70s - but I seem to recall 14000+ spectators and a memorable evening's entertainment.
OR 2-1 over Everton in the same competition when Mike Brolly ran the Merseysiders ragged.

Sigone already mentioned it, but the 'total football' destruction of Huddersfield should be shown on a loop to anyone who ever has a bad word for Alan Buckley.
The Barnsley 3.2 sticks out, as does the Sheff Utd 4.0. Burnley 6.5 was mad, and even getting hammered by the Hammers was interesting. West Brom 1.0 and 5.1 were special (Anyone remember how hard Grovesy hit that pen?). So few of these games have been in recent years, but the wheel of fortune may be turing around again....We shall soon see.


Batch, Crombie, Moore K, Wiggington, Cumming, Waters, Bonnyman, Ford, Emson, Drinkell, Whymark. Love you all, You are the reason I'm on here. You've had help from Todd, Handyside, Futcher P, Groves, Mendonca, Macca etc etc etc. Up The Mariners!!!!!!!!!
