Hi Lads, Grimsby fan in Peace! Just thought you might be interested in how Lee's doing with us. Made a big impact to say the least, scored 2 against Lincoln the other week and has now been made captain! The guys passion and enthusiasm is a breath of fresh air. It's easy to see how no Swindon fan had a bad word to say about him despite falling down the pecking order at your place. Here are a few more views of him from our fans, heading for cult hero status already it would seem? (that's not too difficult given the shite we've been dealt up the last few years though!!) http://thefishy.co.uk/cgi-bin/forum/Blah.pl?m-1267908626/s-0/Good look for the rest of the season lads.

Sounds awfully familiar to when he first came here, when we were also in the shit league-wise. Not a dig but he's a Conference player now.
Would never fault his commitment but frankly the least talented player we've had for some time. I always hated him a little bit cos of his City days anyway though tbh.
Best of luck for the season.

No disrespect to Lee, but League Two is his level. I think he was one of the players to make a difference in our season in that division.
Last night, I did wonder how he was getting on. You must have been chuffed with the result yesterday. Stelling was going mental on SS, like you'd won the lottery or similar.

It felt like winning the lottery it's been that long! I agree that league Two probably is his level now. He's lacking that yard of pace he probably had in his 20's. But it's obvious he's been a good player in his day; his positional sense is great and his placed header to set up our third was perfect. He looks like a natural leader as well and slated the rest of the team in the local paper midweek after the disappointing performance at Dagenham and they seemed to respond to that yesterday. I'm not doubting that he's not upto league 1 standard anymore and you've got better but he's doing a damn good job for us and I hope he keeps it up for the rest of the season and maybe we'll bridge the gap and stay up by the skin of our teeth. Got any others we could have?

Is he Shit? If he's a goalkeeper we'll give him a go. Ours is a decrepid pensioner

Glad he's doing well for.
Hope you beat the drop and Cheltenham go down.
DMR talking rubbish. Ricky Shakes, Trevor Benjamin, Patrick Collins, Matt Hewlett, Ben Martin, Lloyd Opara, Ben Stevenson, Matt Bulman. I'm sure there are more.
Oh yeah Tony Thorpe and Gareth '3 year contract' Whalley

Tony Thorpe played for us briefly a few years ago. He was very poor.

In that case we should loan you our young Polish U-21 keeper Jakub Jesionkowski. Supposed to be highly rated but I will admit to not seeing him play or knowing much about him.
Timlin is a bit shit, but good in league two. It's hard to forget things like that when we're talking up promotion from the league above and having better players etc. In fact, it makes me appreciate how much we've come on under Wilson.

Glad to hear he's doing well for you, he was a great servant to us and well-liked by fans. Ask him about the DellBoy coat!
And following on from DMR's assessment (which is, as Dave says, rubbish), I suspect we'll find out whether he's a Conference player next August, cos you lot look screwed

Hi Lads,
We have some lasses on here as well you know...it might be a shock to you as being norvern, a bird is something you probably beat after 10 pints of Tenants Old Cod Liver Oil lager. Many of our posters are very assiduous not to offend when it comes to such matters as political correctness.

Shouldnt you really be called Cleethorpes Town? Seriously Peacocks injuries held him back and always seemed to look unfit(to me) Glad he has made an impact for you....you need to beat the drop as for some there is no way back quickly...ie Oxford,Wrexham,Luton.........good luck and good fishing.

Andrew Fitton was on the radio yesterday saying that they have tried to get a few of the squad players out on loan but a couple of them would rather stay in the stiffs. He cited the example of Macklin has had 4 games for Torquay and that the other players are stupid not to go out on loan and get some games in and come back the better for it.

It's great that he's settled in up there and is becoming a fan's favourite already,a real gent and a player who wears his heart on his sleeve.
Good luck in avoiding relegation..
