It’s almost as if it’s not a neutral polling sample. 
Most other teams are far more average and usually a lot less biased towards their own team I have found as I do this for every team in the division, the only other teams that have been comparable for bias towards their own teams have been Exeter, Plymouth, Port Vale and Cambridge, the rest have been quite realistic when playing the team who are top of the table.

Loads of confidence on the Grimsby forum.

Only 14 predicting a Swindon win even though we are top of the table and without a home defeat since September on a run of 8 wins and 2 draws scoring 20 goals and conceding just 5 in the games.

16 Grims predict a draw, but a large 23 predict a Grimsby win.

Theres optimism for you.
They do seem to get carried away, at the start of the season the majority of their fans thought they were dead certs for the playoffs and would be pushing for autos and that was seemingly off the back of signing Hanson. So I’d take anything they say with a pinch of salt.

Can someone confirm if the Kerry Mucklowe statue by the club shop is real? That’s genius.

It’s also a form of community engagement that not everyone will get.

Holloway will have them right up for this, so they’ll be dangerous. Vernam, in particular, seems to have found a bit of form since a loan spell at Chorley. Would be foolish to underestimate them.

Please win Town.

First I have heard of it TBH but the club do have posters at the club.

Think you're wrong there OST. This will be a tough game, we haven't won against a side ending in -by in late Feb since 1928, thanks to the Tories, and Wellens has done nothing to show that he can teach algebra to year 8s in these circumstances. It's all downhill from here.

Not as simple as that is it. You missed out Thatcher, the miners strike, illegal occupation of Gibraltar and the Falklands, more recently the floods amongst other worrying deficiencies.

The wind tunnel turbine will be on full power today. Just have to remember to turn it off when Grimsby are attacking the Stratton Bank.

Is that statue real, or computer generated ?
Hope it's the former !
