    Dunno, it seems quite 'exciting' over there...

    Burns is an utter clown and has been for years,he should never comment on any sporting issues as he knows nothing,but he sure likes to think he does... Stick to chatting to the old ladies burns on your "award winning mid morning show"

    Think going part time could also be a solution for Grimsby..

    My dad was a Mariners fan all all his life and I grew up supporting both City and Town. So mixed feelings this season, my dad passed away having seen Town get promoted back into the league and it's so sad to see that progress frittered away by Fenty and Holloway.

    They've been playing in that Errea kit for decades now

    Is Charles Ekberg still the radio reporter for them?

    Old **** sounded like he was pissed.

    John Tonker ain't it.
    Charles Ekberg. Makes Peter Swann sound like Enstein.

    I've lived and worked among Gy & Scunny fans for more than forty years - the majority of 'em are sound; I got lots of good natured piss taking and banter when they were both above us and a lot of ''well dones'' and ''you're gonna enjoy that'' from the same piss takers after Wembley '08 I hope their ownership gets sorted out and they can start rebuilding.

    Despite not going thru' the trapdoor things are looking a bit more ominous for Scunny - they owed c.£11 mill to their owner, he's sold the club and ground to another company that he owns for the £11 mill he's owed which now leaves Scunny with bugger all assets if/when/should he sell their ground to property developers who are very active in the Glanford Park area.

    I thought he was building a new ground round the corner? That was four or five years ago? Maybe more?

    He had a long chat with Burnsy the other morning. That no longer appears to be on the agenda. It all sounded complicated. I thought things sound iffy for them, some who phoned in thought things could be promising. To be fair he is upfront and didn't dodge any questions.

    They should merge with GY, play at Brigg, guaranteed 5K crowds.

    Like Barca says, the new ground is off the cards and has been for awhile - Swann, since his divorce, has been trying to flog the club and its assets to try and recoup his losses, this latest move is him recouping money. The Scunny lads I drink with are quite worried by his moves, they've gone from being a club with ****-all debt and owning a mortgage free stadium to being ''potentially'' homeless - they quote past acts of ****ishness which have certainly unsettled the fans. TWT as a wise man once said.

    Didn't the joker at massive fc do something similar, sold the ground to another one of his companies, sounds dodgy, though he (swann) may have done it the correct way, assuming there is one.

    A relatively general statement I'd say. Nothing special.
