These plans look incredible. Would be huge for the area.

I regularly open water swim in the Docks and there's so much scope for it and water based activities to be a huge part of the local identify and economy.

Think small, get small.


I get your diehard reference now. Respect!

Sounds amazing. Look at places like Copenhagen where open water swimming is a big part of the culture, lots of people are bang into it.

Whatever happened  to Scartho "Scaffa" Baths
Back in the day when we were kids as for Cleethorpes Bathing Pool now the leisure centre ?
But credit to those that do swim in the dock
"Grimsby Water rats"  if still exist ? Swim at Christmas / Boxing day annual event always in the paper ...Not for me
So a proper pool heated like "Scaffa" before i chuck me "Speedo's" on.

If it comes off, I hope this new outdoor pool is a bloody sight warmer than the old Cleethorpes bathing pool. I gave a vague memory of going there one sunny day and being absolutely frozen for the whole trip!

Did anyone expect that we were going to build a new ground on the docks?

Seems like another thread to give posters the chance to moan about something a bit like transfer threads when we don’t sign someone we’ve probably never even spoken to!

Yes and the only time i remember too was in the
1970's heatwave summers 76/ 77  when it was warm
And one year covered in ladybirds.
As for talk of a new ground for me a serious investment
away from other people's projects.

Growing up in Mablethorpe there was an open water pool at Golden Sands (which was the biggest caravan park in Europe I think).  The pool was filled with spring water and always freezing.  You had to swim very fast to keep from shivering.  Surprised that Olympic swimmers were not produced.

The town that’s got nothing, wants nothing and will get exactly that. Nuff said.

Quoted from Yarborough Vaults


Yes, how weird that Town fans on a GTFC board point out that the stadium has suddenly gone missing from the plans. Not the sort of thing any of us should be bothered about really I suppose.


Can you refresh my (fading) memory by providing an official link to anything from the club/owners that included a new stadium on the Docks. Thanks in advance..


The aim of argument or discussion should not be victory but progress.

Same plans for the ice House, and nothings happened and probably won't, Shutes is full of shite with no money, he lives in cloud cuckoo land unfortunately.


Accusing him of being a tyre kicker?
