Each week we interview the long-suffering partner of a keen Town fan. Watching and reading about football can consume a lot of time, which can be a frequent bone of contention between partners when one partner is a keen fan and the other is not.

If you or your partner would like to be considered for an interview with us, send an email to us. We need more Cod Widows soon so please contact us so that this feature can continue.

Here are our current and previous Cod Widows:

26 february: Dan Taylor		Dan's a Sutton United fan, and follows his team in the Ryman League, but his partner Sarah is a Mariner through and through.
17 january: Foxy Jayne		Steff does his best to inculcate the lure of the Mariners into Jayne, but she refuses to accept the Grimsby code into her Leicester Life.
08 january: Jenny Turnbull		Once upon a time Jenny had scarcely heard of Grimsby Town, now she hears all about them on an hourly basis now that she has met Tom Bollant.
05 october: Margie Baily		Margie, wife of Jeremy (Red Hat), has had to live with Grimsby Town for 23 years. The day she met Jeremy in Germany he was even wearing a Town shirt!
10 september: Chez Osborne		Chez, wife of Nicko, is a Town fan who sometimes gets annoyed with her husband's priorities.
03 september: Sue Osborne		Sue, wife of Billo, is generally supportive of her husband's many hours spent on the internet following the fortune of the Mariners from Australia.
