WHY do we all post on here?
Because whichever type of fan you are, you want to see Grimsby Town back playing in the Football league and the kudos at work wherever you are in the UK to defend your team.
Currently not much to shout about, over the last three seasons, improvement that has has the team knocking on the play offs door.
We have been found out on each playoff game to date - fact !
On paper, we now have the strongest team squad in the last three years, but three games in, we haven't played the strongest team as yet.... whatever that team evolves into ???
The next two months will define if Hurst is up to the selection job, and can motivate whoever he picks... that's what he's there for !
We are there to put the fans and supporters perspective of our expectations from paying money each home game and also the brillaint following away entourage that every club needs for their team.
The Forum - everyone is entitles to an opinion... how that isd expressed in print can be monitored by the Mods on here, so there is an acceptable standard to uphold.
Other than that, the banter on here can make my day, and I will sometimes throw something into a new thread to see what a reaction can be gained from those on here.I
If Fenty and the manager do come on here in reality or have people monitoring this site, then they should know that promotion at all costs is the prime requirement from everyone posting.
Crowds and cash flow will only improve if results and game play keep people interested - 23 x 1-0 wins would satisfy Arsene Wenger in his early days, but look at the style he has tried to put into his current teams, likewise with Brendan Rodgers - games to get the blood flowing, exciting to watch, terrifying if the results go wrong, but always worth talking about in regard to adventurous play and skill - should be at the wages given out.
We have to adopt a fifth tier expectation, but at the top of that tier for this season.
Hurst must produce a side that gives little away but can attack at speed when all of the squad is fit and available. we do still need to be somewhere around the top five places by lucky wins and grabbed points , assuming the style of play remains the same, but at Xmas, the judgement must be made if we are going to make the jump required to make the top spot our priority.

Jesus, what is it with grown men and tantrums on here..
I think it's perfectly reasonable for someone to say the Fishy has got too negative. Or are we now saying anyone who criticises anything is having a tantrum?

Just don't need to tell people that your not posting anymore because of people having "different opinions" That's what a forum is all about.

I don't post very often these days, but always enjoyed the banter on the fishy. Its now become very dull with the same all sh@t and so much negativity nowadays.
Whilst everybody is entitled to their opinions it seems that's only acceptable here if you agree with those that are shouting loudest and fail to see anything but the negative.
We're three matches in and after reading the posts here it seems the season is over. Its true to say we've not had a great start but we've not lost yet either. Its also true to say we've been unlucky with lots off injuries, suspensions and illness.
Anyway I'm really bored with the fishy now and so won't be wasting my time posting or even reading this now. I'm a s/t holder, and will continue to support my team home and away. If we all keep the faith and stick together in getting behind the team who knows the future of our beloved football club may actually be positive.
GONE!!!! For someone who is bored of the fishy and the current topics on board then using tabloid tactics of a dramatic enticing headline only to reveal a bland personal statement of you are leaving because you dont like the current content is pretty ironic. Regardless of content (well most of the time) or viewpoint i like reading other peoples opinions and i can remember there was this one time that someone actually made me think i may not be correct in my own view, on reflection i was right but it did make me think.

Don't worry John, I'll be in a position to buy the club out soon. I just can't believe all these long lost relatives I have living in Africa who have sadly died and all the random people who have recently chosen to trust me with their inheritance. Just added up the total of the money I'm due when I get a reply from my emails and I'm looking at inheriting over $150m. I'm sure we can come to some arrangement.
