“The FA have no idea, totally clueless. They move from one blunder to another, appointing useless referees and defending their poor and inadequate displays and handing out bans and fines that are not necessary. A power trip driven organisation with people who know little about football. I wouldn't appeal, probably end up with a 5 game ban for having the audacity to question the mighty power of the FA.”

“Well the thing is Elding was out of order for doing what he did ..... and the Lincoln fans who complained to the FA were just gutted by our big win and fantastic support at BP..... the only way to get there own back on Grimsby was Eldings actions...... but are we bothered Grimsby fans ...... noooooooooooooooooooo ...... do we care ........ nooooooooooooo...... because we are Grimsby Town!!! He Who Dares Wins!! Up The Mighty Mariners!!”

“This is a very harsh punishment. Football is going mad. Oh dear lincoln are bitter that we are a better side then them arnt they. Well du*** has been in form and to be fair deseves a few starts so lets not let it rock our play off push and cup run.... bet Lincoln wished they could say that!”

“He didn't swear though did he........If he had done what he did in Peoples park with the kids about, he would probably be signing the register now and folks would be daubing unpleasant remarks on the side of his house. Anthony's best bet is to accept the light punishment he has got, keep his manhood in his shortsd in future when palying footy, and thank his lucky stars it was the football authorities investigating.”

“I can recall Simon Yeo giving ****** signs to the pontoon a few years back when he came here with Lincoln. Nothing was said though, because it's not a big deal is it. So what if he did though? No point crying to the police because someone swore at you! Duffy's better than Elding anyway. UTM”

“Perhaps he will keep it in his shorts in future where it belomgs!”

“lee_GTFC1....If you want to pay Eldings fine, go ahead but he earns more than me a week. you must be an idiot if you think fans will pay this”

“Well at least Duffy gets a start now, Elding has been awful for the last 6 games......decent player works hard and gets the odd goal, but it's not the end of the world given his current form and Duffys! Oh and why are we surprised Lincoln complained, small minded village tinpot clubs, have the same petty, thick fans to match. Typical F.A, typical Lincoln, UTFM”

“Another thing i would like to add and that is i think the F.A have got it in for us mighty mariners even though its just plain pettyness that elding was charged and punished for such a minor breach.


UTM”

“after watching york city play gateshead i think eldings 2 match ban will not effect towns match against york city on saturday, it just means we need to work harder and score goals.

reed is one to watch for for city as they scored 1 against gateshead, but gateshead beat york by 2 goals to 1. so heads up this maybe a doddle for town without elding.

UTM

keep the faith lads”
