Handsy Posted August 26, 2018 Share Posted August 26, 2018 Win our two home games and anything out of the Grimsby game is a bonus but if we win the 2 Home games I can see us getting a result at Grimsby so 7 or 9 points for me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Londonboy Posted August 26, 2018 Author Share Posted August 26, 2018 Yep, 5 or 6 points will keep us in the mix. None of these sides will be challenging for promotion or battling to stay up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

daniel Posted August 26, 2018 Share Posted August 26, 2018 Win both home games and we’ll take a good following to Grimsby. Think it’ll be a new ground for a lot of fans, I couldn’t make the boxing day 3-3 years ago, not sure when we’ve played them away before that.

The last time we played them away in the league before the 3-3 game was the last game of the season in 1998. We won 2-0 courtesy of a brace from Rocket Ronnie Jepson. Grimsby went up via the playoffs a few weeks later. Edited August 26, 2018 by johnafoafc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monty Burns Posted August 26, 2018 Share Posted August 26, 2018 2-0 Jepson in, like, 1996 or sumat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yarddog73 Posted August 26, 2018 Share Posted August 26, 2018 Win the next two and it will be 1000+ on the east coast, no reason why we can't win the next two homes which are very winnable games, I'd settle for 7 from 9 again though. I'd also be writing the Barnsley game off and getting away from the obsession Corney had for the piss pot cup. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

disjointed Posted August 26, 2018 Share Posted August 26, 2018 Anyone know what the situation is at Grimsby regarding away fan allocation. Wouldn't want to miss it as it is a new ground for me, and due to holidays I will struggle to get tickets, hope it is pay on the day.

latics22 Posted August 26, 2018 Share Posted August 26, 2018 I went Grimsby can’t remember when would have been in the championship I’d assume although we were in league 1 for soooo long it could have been in league 1. i think if we really have ambitions of going up, min 7 points! Newport are doing ok this year, but they are normally cannon fodder can’t imagine they have much of a budget. They would be god knows where by now if it wasn’t for super John! (Nice mention of my man) Grimsby only came up a season or go I believe ? And Crawley have hardly ever set the world alight, and fatty jumped ship. Like I said few weeks back there ain’t any massive teams in this league bit of luck and splash of cash and we should comfortably finish top 3.

Out of curiosity as I haven't been there on the train, what's the best station to alight for away fans Grimsby or Cleethorpes? It looks like it's between the two.

Cleethorpes was about a 15 min walk away (I think). Weird place. Went for the friendly a couple of years ago. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes I missed that one I was away on me jollies, went years ago on a minibus and it got a bit tasty getting away so I'd suspect given the probable decent away following it will have the police all over it.

I agree but we are slightly less gash and seem to be scoring goals and not conceding. We’re not playing great but winning games, hopefully we will become even less gash as time goes on.
