Joshing about on shaggers bank

23 April 2015

Hello – London Diary here, still sweating over when we're going to be playing in the next few weeks. Now, as per the Diary yesterday, I'm not going to use the word 'tinpot' to describe the league we're in because I'm a respectful lad from the Nunny, but the communication from their Twitter account is bloody ridiculous. It's essentially a middle-aged man wearing a shirt and tie, who's not used to using the internet, having a breakdown. And I don't mean this guy for once.

The Conference is citing various people for the delay in fixtures, including police in both Bristol and 'Humberside' (us, obviously), but they're not blaming the TV company. God, no. They're the good guys, remember?

Not much news to report on apart from the fluctuating price in travel that will only go up each hour and bugger over the fans yet again – oh, and a big congrats to the two Joshes who have earned themselves professional contracts with the club. I can only imagine the excitement of being told that you're being given a contract by your boyhood team (assuming they're both Grimsby lads). So well done the both of you and let's hope we see some of you next season. It'd be nice to see some fresh young GY blood at BP. Hey, that also takes our player tally for next season up to three!

I know that we at Cod Almighty have to remain neutral, because we were told to by someone on Facebook. (Apparently we're not allowed to tell people not to vote UKIP or Cuntservative. But I mean, if you're reading this and you're voting UKIP you're probably more confused than a 46-year-old man on his own at a One Direction gig.) Since then we've all signed up to a course on 'Media Impartiality' which is being put on by those kind people at The Sun, so hopefully soon we'll be completely neutral and neutered.

But, your London Diary is going to go out on a limb and ask you to:

1. Vote in the Grimsby Town Player of The Year awards
2. Pop down to the awards – it's only £2 and I'm going to be there with Thomas Turgoose dishing out awards or something
3. Get behind the boys on Saturday
4. Don't vote UKIP or Conservative

I think supporting the Conservatives or UKIP is essentially like supporting a Premiership football team. They don't give a shit about you. To them, you're money and nothing else. They're the elite 1% and you're the 99% turning up each week getting TERRY printed on your blue shirt paying money into the pockets of the fat cats. But hey, we're a democracy and we all have an opinion.

Thanks all – have a great week and UTM!
