According to one of the English Sunday papers, a tannoy announcer created considerable mirth at Grimsby Town's Blundell Park on Saturday afternoon when he warned fans not to invade the pitch at the end of the team's final home match of the season. By then Grimsby were seconds away from losing to Tranmere, their 10th match without a win, and most of their fed-up supporters had left the ground. "The only reason we'd have run on to pitch would have been to tell the players how **** they were," said one of the few remaining souls in the stand.
