BRIGG BLOG'S BEST WISHES TO GRIMSBY TOWN AT WEMBLEY

Many Brigg people will be hoping Grimsby Town can win the Conference Play-off Final against Bristol Rovers at Wembley stadium, London, tomorrow (Sunday) and regain the place they lost in the Football League some five years ago.
Until the early 1980s there was a Brigg Branch of the Grimsby Town Supporters' Club which ran buses to all home games at Blundell Park, picking up in  Cary Lane and outside the Cemetery, on Wrawby Road.
Grimsby Town was one of the oldest clubs in the Football League when demoted, but is not as old as our own Brigg Town FC (founded 1864/5). 
There will be Brigg folk at Wembley tomorrow to cheer on The Mariners. So fingers crossed!
