"The top and bottom is that Chesterfield think they have signed a decent striker in Jack Lester to replace Bosman departee Colin Larkin. But our Jack doesn't score that many (not from open play anyway) and his missus says his legs are really dodgy these days"

Bit sweeping to say our main success has been in the last 10 years! What about the period in the late 70's when we had a really strong "old Div 3 side" which under Cox only just failed to get into Div 2 and was afraid of nobody. Our Anglo-Scottish Cup exploits of which we are still the holders, lol, thumping the mighty Rangers. Our Milk-Cup battle with Liverpool in '92 certainly would deserve a mention as well as our local matches against our "peers" of Utd. Wednesday, Forest and Derby. Obviously read a lot of paper articles and little else in his research.

especially as during that era the games that stickout were the Grimsby games!

FA cup replay.. being two up at half time and losing three two.... hopin for revenge in the league game, and finding out John Turner was injured and Phil Tingay was in! Ah!

Think we went three down... Birchy missed a pen, and also lost that one three two.

In front of 13,727, with Grimsby going on to win the championship and us one point from promotion that would have been secured at the expense of Wednesday had the following seasons 3 points for a win change been implemented a year earlier.....

What, not as many as Larkin? I'd hardly call pop's departure a bosman, that makes him sound quite good.
