Next two games are must win!
Interesting... why are they must win??
Hyperbole and gross exaggeration I believe
Point at Gateshead and win v Alfreton and the bunting will be out in Cleethorpes.. trust me
Negative , going for a point at gateshead . That's what some people are trying to get across. I won't be happy for a point at gateshead and until that mentality changes this club will be down here for years to come For gods sake it's gateshead with 800 poxy fans in the ground |

I respect what you are trying to say The Singing Fisherman but people need to vent their frustrations and it is better that they do it on the fishy than at the game.
Not everyone who boos the players or complains at the match reads or posts on the fishy.

I understand it works both ways. But surely  we will get more of a true idea how the season is going to pan out once all our attacking players are back. Just think it's a little earlier to take the negative stance just yet. Hopefully a good wkd this one coming and things will feel a little different. Utm
Really admire your enthusiasm and optimistic view , I really hope you prove every doubter wrong .UTM |

I love my football club and want them to succeed and get back into the football league like I'm sure every town fan does. I understand the football in the first 3 games hasn't been brilliant but apart from 1 silly mistake in the middle of the park leading to our only goal against us. I think we have been solid at the back and hopefully with more of our attacking players coming back our fortunes and performances on the pitch will change soon. We are only 3 games in and still unbeaten. Go on a good run in the next few games and the first 3 will be a distant memory. How about backing the lads at every opportunity and try get more positive vibes back at the park. I sit in the upper and a bunch of old farts behind me just complain all game and it gets right on my mammaries. All I hear is "Rubbish and get him off" I'm sure it does the players confidence loads of good. Not! Anyone would think it was the end of the season and we had no chance of promotion. We have loads of games left to change it round and defo more chance now we have players coming back. I think the negativity coming from some fans is a little wrong and premature considering the recent luck with injury's etc. If you want your team to do well and succeed how ever you dislike the manager etc. Surly getting behind your team and trying to create a positive atmosphere around the place is going to help more with motivating the players than shouting negative comments all the time when things aren't going to plan so early in the season. So to all thous grumpy victor meldrews out there smile and try to be more positive for a change it's not all that bad!Positivity breeds success. Utm

A shame that any attempt at unifying fans and creating a bit of positivity on this board gets hijacked by the moaning brigade. If we'd won the first 3 games would this board be full of praise for the team and endless repetitive threads about how great we are? Not sure if it's human nature / football supporters nature or Grimsby nature but a lot of people prefer moaning than praising the team - if you need evidence look at how busy this board is after a defeat compared to after a win.

I don't often agree with 80s but I do believe he is right when he says that if Town "went for it" on Saturday and ended up getting beaten convincingly the Fishy on Saturday night would require an X certificate (one for the more mature in age amongst us). As for your last comment, when league positions are decided on the size of crowds I'll join your argument. Gateshead are a side who, despite some underhand tactics know how to play the game. With a better start to last season they could well have found themselves starting this campaign in the Football League... I would dearly love 3 points on Saturday but would accept a point if it were offered now... |

We could do with some underhand tactics. No, hold on, let's just start with tactics for now........ |

Don't tell me - you also go to the away games with Getyourfactsright, right? "Negativity a little premature" - weve been on the slide for 10 years! If you think our fans are bad you should have read the Luton fans sites till they eventually got it together. There are always a few moans and groans at every ground in the country from Old Trafford down, but I think the fans have been incredibly lenient towards the "board" and team considering the circumstances. I think that may change though unless there really is an upturn soon, which to be fair is probable when we get a full team out. |

I don't support those who moan at games for no apparent reason, but I do wish that the club (JF /PH etc.)would give a little more credit to the 90% of fans who attend in very decent numbers to support our beloved team, bearing in mind the standard of entertainment on offer lately.
Sure I'd like to see 5000 in the ground, but 3500+ paying £18 per game is no mean feat
