Diary - Thursday 15 March 2012

15 March 2012

Viewing the morning with alarm the Fishing Heritage Museum had lost its charm. How long, you wondered, can this Deviant Diary last when there ain't nothin' going on but us chickens?

Yes sir, you can boogie and it's a foggy day in Grimsby Town. After the Tuesday tumult, the York yo-yo, some have that feeling of self-pity. What to do? What to do? What to do? The air and outlook was decidedly blue but facts were clear, everyone with eyes could see the reality. Look and learn, don't jeer and gurn. Misery and moping is relative and our impish county cousins are alarmingly self-harming these days. They have got a bye in next year's Lincs Senior Cup though. Every cloud's got a silver lining and we'd like to hold those perennial six points close. Stay frosty Impies.

Thursday has been cancelled in Cheapside for legal reasons. And so the players get a day off to rest their weary heads on the sea bed as Shouty and Shorty are the star witnesses to be cross examined in the curious case of the Boston Strangling. Jaundice v Jarndice reaches its epic conclusion today with the Potato Boys demanding their £25,000 of fleshy compensation for the purely accidental and coincidental resignation/appointment hoe-down. Now, how much has all this cost in time and legal fees? Can Town really afford to let the kids in free for the Tamworth game, especially after the Fleetwood fiasco has cost another £500 in FA fines.

Oh yes, we forgot: John's comfortable now, so nothing can go wrong. Roll on deodorant, roll on Saturday.
