Let's face it. No one goes to Grimsby to watch football. So what's important is cars

Football's a business these days and car parking is big business. I don't care where the stadium is (as long as it's not near undesirables who might nick it – so my preference is Scartho) as long as I can park my car.

I don't drive all the way to a Town match and not park my car. It's time people like you woke up to the realities of the modern age and the modern car and modern car parks. That's what gets my vote. A car park. That's what I go to the football for.

Whoever drew this, they've got the right idea.

Plan for new ground 

I say we build a car park at Freemo, Peaks Parkway, Great Coates and Garth Lane. Then knock down the stands at BP, place cameras around the pitch, and beam the match direct to giant screens in each of the car parks. Like a drive-in, but with enough space for people to drive away 10 minutes before the match has finished. Problem solved!

Now, where did I leave my car? It's in here somewhere. This place is fucking massive. They should knock it down and build something useful.
