If you are born n bred in Grimsby and fancy a day at the coast do you drive the minutes down the road to Cleethorpes or do you venture elsewhere due to it being so familiar? I've watched Notts play Grimsby but never visited the besch.bit,is it any good?

I was born n bred in Nottingham,my dna will probably say 100℅ Arnold,Nottingham with a trace of France around 1066  😎


Cleethorpes is a wonderful place IMO. A superb huge beach, lots of great restaurants and and bars. It's a large resort with lots to do, over 180k attended armed forces last but one weekend. Stay over next time we play you, best of luck for next season.

Born in Park Street. Thankfully on the Grimsby side! So close to being a Meggie.


I had an uncle that lived on Park Street, my Dad would park his car outside his house on matchdays, where we would have a cup of tea before walking up to Blundell Park.

I was born on the Nunny, so everyone from Cleethorpes is posh.


If the football is bad you can always watch the gulls.

Born in Nunsthorpe, grew up in Cleethorpes, moved away at 18 it will always be 'home' to me. It's quite a unique feature though isn't it, to have two mid-sized towns essentially considered one and the same. I now live in Leeds which is very much conjoined with Bradford, but they are absolutely two separate places.

Can't think of many other places like that.

Grimsby, and everyone down here knows where I’m from. Still get excited seeing the dock tower when we visit
Can’t deny that when I meet people for the first time, if they ask where I’m from I tell them “a picturesque fishing village on the east coast of England”.
