We regularly need new Cod Heads, so would appreciate contributions from lifelong supporters of the Mariners. This week's Cod Head is Kyle Young.

Fishy:
When did you first start supporting the Mariners, and what was your first game?

Kyle:
I first started to support 'Town' when I was about 6, but I attended my first game a bit before then, and it was Millwall, and I believe we drew 1-1.

Fishy:
Who is the best player you ever saw wearing a Grimsby Town shirt?

Kyle:
Clive Mendonca, great striker, but Oster was a close second.

Fishy:
If there is one game you were allowed to go back in time and watch what would it be and why?

Kyle:
I would go to the Town v Northampton play-off final game, as I was unable to go after going to the Windscreens final against Bournemouth.

Fishy:
What are your favourite and least favourite away grounds?

Kyle:
Favourite is Molineux, I've been there twice, but the worst is by far Scunny.

Fishy:
What, in your opinion, are GTFC's best and worst seasons since you have been supporting them?

Kyle:
Best was 98, winning the play-offs and windscreen trophy, but worst was season before, finishing bottom of div 1.

Fishy:
What is the most eventful day you have ever had in the course of following the Mariners?

Kyle:
The Liverpool game last season, great atmosphere and great result. Lucky to go as well and I nearly crushed my mate I was with when Jevons scored. Unbelievable game.

Fishy:
Who is the greatest ever GTFC manager?

Kyle:
The greatest I've seen is Buckley, because of what he achieved with the club.

Fishy:
How many games a season do you get to now, and what do you do while Town are playing games that you can't get to?

Kyle:
I go to every home game in the Pontoon. and as many away games as I can attend. If I can't go, then I just sit and wait for the results on Sky Sports or on the radio.

Fishy:
Name your all-time starting eleven since you have been watching Town?

Kyle:
