Suddenly everything is ‘on the up’ over the bridge and I for one am pleased. Molby was bound to go sooner or later and no matter who the new manager was the team was bound to find some form when he came in. Teams always perk up whenever a new man comes in, presumably hoping to impress the new boss. My worry was that the not so great Dane would last a few more weeks and we would find Hull in mid revival on November 2nd. Normal service should have been resumed by the time we get there.
Surely this is Grimsby’s year? For as long as anyone can remember Grimsby have been not so much flirting with relegation as lying naked on the bed begging relegation to get on with it.
I read in the Evening Telegraph the other
|
night a protest about some new housing
estate being built. No doubt the protests
will be patiently listened to and then ignored
and the new development will go ahead.
So what has that got to do with the mighty Iron?
Simply this. Whenever a new estate is built in the
Scunthorpe area the chronic lack of imagination
in the architecture is also evident when the roads
are named.
Surely a new road should have some link to the
town (there's a road in Bottesford named after
my family - ed) and what could be better than
to honour everyone’s favourite Spaniard? Why
name a road after some lame sounding flower
when you could call it Garcia Way? In fact why not commemorate that great day at Wembley throughout the estate? The main road through would obviously be Wembley Way and all the roads off would pay tribute to our heroes. Who wouldn’t want to live down Laws Lane or Sheldon Grove? To continue the play off final victory theme you could have Harsley Court and Dawson Drive and not forgetting of course Straight Back Down Street.
