Wasn't going to bother tomorrow but the excitement of the Bradford game, along with nothing else to do, convinced me that a longish hop across the M62 might be worthwhile.

Obviously, the excitement in Wiltshire is mounting which is why this is the first post on the match. Done Grimsby before and used to deliver there and it wasn't the most exciting of places so will give Cleethorpes a try tomorrow.

Therefore, a 0-0 draw is on the cards with an attendance of 7,325, with 379 making the trip from all around the country.

Missing this one out. Went to Grimsby in the Lindsay season and got taken in by his badge slapping. He reminded me of it just a matter of weeks later when he did the same at Crawley. Dick

As for the game, Town were out in numbers given that it's about 4 and a half hours each way, gave plenty of noise for the boys to feed from and were rewarded with a win. 2-1 if memory serves.

As it's such a pain to get to I'm not sure we'll be going back any time soon - and depending on results over the next few weeks it might not be an option for a while!

Will be interesting to see if the Holloway factor has any impact on the atmosphere
