Delivering around Flitwick today and saw a runner pounding the roads in his Town shirt. Think he was a bit surprised to find a random white van man bellowing 'Up the Mariners' & 'Come on Town' out of the cab!

Made me think that we must have one of the largest Exiled fanbases , given our size of following, of any Football League club
(I've never seen Lincoln or Scunts shirts outside of Lincs, for example)

When Leeds trainer Les Cocker was once told Norman Hunter had broken a leg, he asked: “Whose is it?”

Just off the M1 between Milton Keynes and Luton.

Also having not heard of Flitwick I had to look it up on Wiki. The shirt worn by the runner wasn't of the 2009-10 vintage was it?

They seek them here
They seek them there
They seek Mariner supports everywhere
Are they in heaven
Are they in hell ( No)

There all over the place

(Sorry the last bit didn't rhyme)


You can please some of the forumites some of the time but not all the forumites all of the time
