I was looking at the distribution of tickets left earlier this week, where it was mostly singles apart from the southern end blocks of ESL and WSL. In these blocks the seats sold first were either towards the centre of the pitch, as you’d expect, but also columns of seats sold at the southern end of the block as if people were buying seats as close to the away fans as possible. It’s almost certain that these will have been bought by Grimsby fans unofficially extending the away end.

The stewards and police need to get stuck in and chuck every single one of them out. No exception.

I’d paint them green and spank them like a naughty avocado.

Being the first to complain when the two seats next to me are sold every week to away fans (I even know the persons name who is allegedly buying the tickets as the people sat in the seats are coached to say a friend let them use his tickets), anyway I would normally complain. But today, if they were sensible then I'd be OK with it.
That said, I was online at 8:50 and booked the two seats for my family so I'm OK this week.

Having slept on this and thought long and hard about it, I’d say nothing but come on here when I got home and write an outraged long winded version of everything they said and did demanding that the club should do something about it.

I wonder if they will be allowed to keep bottle tops on their vinegar?
