    As a fully paid up member of the Dull Mens Club I obviously spend a lot of time on Wikipedia. Searches include just random link clicks but quite regularly articles on Reds related stuff.
    Find myself following a link for the superb Paul Futcher today and had to ask, given he played 230+ games for us ...... why so little mention of us on his page?

    Yes, I get that I could get off my ass and edit it.

    'So little'? There's absolutely nowt, mate! I reckon the lad who does Barnsley Stats on twitter should do, he's incredible with his knowledge.

    Aye, he was lauded by Grimsby fans so suspect that they have penned most of his entry.

    Gerry Taggart’s page - synonymous with Leicester City despite playing twice as many games for us - isn’t much better regarding his time here and I’m not sure the main fact on there is even correct (but might be)
