I support two teams, my home town team Grimsby Town (The Mariners) and my adopted team AFC Bournemouth.
I recently bought two souvenir tea mugs. A Mariner tea mug from Grimsby Town’s ground (Blundell Park) and a Cherries tea mug from Dean Court. Within a few days the handle had broken off my Mariners mug, whilst my Cherries mug remains intact.
This surely illustrates perfectly the difference in class between the 2nd and 5th tiers of English football. All it needs now is for the Mariners to play the Cherries in the cup.
