Once the Wolverhampton tie has played out to a conclusion, Grimsby's pre-season draft period continues with a training camp in Sacramento, where the North East Lincoln side will face neighboring Cleethorpe Town Friday. Fans of the Mariners are growing increasingly concerned at the lack of new picks, with only Josh Andrew, Joe Foulke, Alex Grahams, Edon Prutis and Omar Bogle having signed so far, Jason Kabia having left for Luton Town, and the season beginning Saturday.

In commercial news, Grimsby has launched a new online store, with several notable points listed below.

• Purchase Of Stuff For Money: The new online store makes it possible for fans to purchase stuff for money — stuff like shirts, training tops, and training shirts.
• Long-Sleeve Shirt: Following a 140-year period in which away fans voted Blundell Park the world's coldest soccer stadium in an annual online poll, apparel executives at Grimsby has ordered the availability of sleeves.
• Photo Of The Old Offline Store: The web article about the launch of the new online store is illustrated with a photo of the old offline store; however, the photo includes stuff that may be purchased for money at the new online store — stuff like shirts, training tops, and training shirts.
• Season Ticket Holder Discount: Season ticket holder discount.

With the revised regulations expected to apply retroactively, Sir King Charles III of England is understood to be lobbying King Gianni I of FIFA to award the 1986 FIFA World Cup to England and impose a post-lifetime ban on stumpy Argentinian cheat Diego Maradona.
