Who are you?

There's more than 23 in the photo you'll see later, I'm sure someone counted 28 or 29 in the away end. One of those was an old school mate, Mike Luke, from his RAF base 3 hours south of Grimsby.

There's some they won't have counted like me, quinny, shrimpsscene and shrimper.

Lance! So that's who looks like Freddie Mercury in one of the photos :lol: :lol:

Presumably they announced 23 as that is how many paid in?
Either that or the gate man is an accountant and has written some people off aginst expenses!! :)

Adult one and two went to the turnstile to pay £16 each but tried to get in as concessions. This failed but adult one took his false teeth out and got in for half price with adult two as his "carer". They both ended up paying £8 each! :lol: :lol: As a clue adult one was with us at Aldershot so you could say 2 1/2 of us paid :lol:

The 23 have their own thread on the Fishy message board. This is so funny particularly as they want us to be excluded from the League for not having enough fans :lol: :lol:

Note that Mr. Posh has replied suitably 8-)

The best bit of the fishy thread is the Grimsby fan that saw the name Posh and went off on one about Peterborough :lol: :lol:

Just browsed that thread, quite funny. Especially liked the part about contacting Sepp Blatter about imposing a one point deduction for sides that bring less than 100 fans to away games.

Well done to the 23, though on the photographs I count 27! :lol:
