mrbojangles Posted November 17, 2009 Author Share Posted November 17, 2009 How many times have we all felt like this. Apparently from a disgruntled Grimsby fan on the Grimsby fans site:- 'Dear Players of Grimsby Town FC 'I am writing with regard to my absolute astonishment and disbelief as to the sheer magnitude of your complete lack of talent and failure to carry out the job for which you are paid to do. I am not aware of any swear word or other derogatory phrase in my current vocabulary which comes close to a description of your 'performance' (and I use that term loosely) this afternoon, but let me just say that you have collectively reached a level of inadequacy and ineptitude that neither I nor modern science had previously considered possible. 'In fact I recall a time, in my youth, when I decided to call in sick at work and instead spent the entire day in my one bedroom flat wearing nothing but my underpants, eating toast and w***ing furiously over second-rate Scandinavian porn. Yet somehow, I still managed to contribute more to my employer in that one Andrex-filled day than you complete bunch of toss-baskets have contributed to this club in your entire time here. 'I would genuinely like to know how you pathetic little p***flaps sleep at night, knowing full well that you have taken my money and that of several thousand others and delivered precisely <deleted> all in return. I run a business myself, and I believe I could take any 4,000 of my customers at random; burn down their houses, impregnate their wives and then dismember their children before systematically sending them back in the post, limb-by-limb, and still ensure a level of customer satisfaction which exceeds that which I have experienced at Blundell Park at any time so far this season. 'You are a total disgrace, not only to your profession, not only to the human race, but to nature itself. This may sound like an exaggeration, but believe me when I say that I have passed kidney stones which have brought me a greater level of pleasure and entertainment than watching each of you worthless excuses for professional footballers attempt to play a game you are clearly incapable of playing, week-in, week-out. 'I considered, for a second, that I was perhaps being a little too harsh. But then I recalled that I have blindly given you all the benefit of the doubt for too long now. Yes, for too long you have failed to earn the air you've been breathing by offering any kind of tangible quality either as footballers or as people in general. As such, I feel it's only fair that your supply runs out forthwith. 'I trust, at this precise moment in time, that Mr Fenty is in his office tapping away on the Easyjet web site booking you all one-way flights to Zurich, complete with an overnight stay with our cheese eating friends at Dignitas. Don't bother packing your toothbrush - you won't need it. 'In the event that our beloved chairman can't afford the expense (understandable given that he's soon going to have to assemble a new squad from scratch), then I am prepared to sell my family (including my unborn child) to a dubious consortium of Middle Eastern businessmen in order to pay for the flights.

'Failing that, understanding that most dubious Middle Eastern businessmen are tied-up purchasing Premier League football clubs, I ask you to please take matters into your hands.

EastSaxCol Posted November 22, 2009 Share Posted November 22, 2009 (edited) Oldham 2 U's 2 U's were 1-0 up at half-time and laying in second place before I drove up to London for a London Jazz Festival gig at the South Bank Center. I couldn't really catch the final score until I got home in the early hours , but it was a bit disappointing to read of yet another draw which sees us slip into third place behind Huddersfield **on goal difference. Although that could be changed with a win on Tuesday if we beat Stockport at home -- my last match for a while before returning to the LOS -- so, Come On U's ! Also, it looks as though Norwich could be deducted points for poaching Lambert. ** Correction 1 Leeds United 392 Charlton 333 Huddersfield 304 Colchester 30 Edited November 22, 2009 by Happy Hammer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rijit Posted November 22, 2009 Share Posted November 22, 2009 3-1 win at stockport with 2 goals in jury time, may look a bit like a smash and grab but we were by a long way the best team and overall totally deserved the 3 points. Another great free kick for our first by Harley. But in all fairness their equaliser was also from a free kick and was actually better. Got to feel for stockport fans, seem nice people and a friendly club. Six months in admin, far, far to long. all their cash is going to the administrators, they apparently charging 300 per hour. Still its onwards and upwards for the mighty Grecians. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chavy Posted November 24, 2009 Share Posted November 24, 2009 1-1 away to Middlesborough isn't a bad point to get. I suspect they'll be in the mix come seasons end. Though by all accounts we could & should have nicked it at the end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EastSaxCol Posted November 24, 2009 Share Posted November 24, 2009 ColU 2 Stockport 0 Couldn't make this one (dicky tum) but first half goals by Lisbie and Platt saw the U's beat first from bottom Stockpot. Although according to the report on the official site the U's second-half showing had a lot to be desired as they failed to push home the advantage and dominate the game. Nevertheless, back up to third, so still on course ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thaimiller Posted November 25, 2009 Share Posted November 25, 2009 Adam Le Fondre scored both goals as Rotherham battled their way to a 2-0 victory over Lincoln at Don Valley. That puts us 3rd only a point behind the leaders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, I think so. Huddersfield are a pretty good side and I personally fancy them for a play-off place. But it's pretty tight at the top and that defeat saw them slip from 3rd on Saturday to 5th last night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How many goals has he scored this season? That puts him on 14 including cup games since we signed him from Rochdale, I don't think we'll be able to keep hold of him in the summer if he carrys on scoring(which I hope he does). Money is still tight and its a shame but I suppose thats how it is in the lower leagues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
