Grimsby Town in Popular Culture
During April 2007 it was announced that Grimsby had struck a deal with Sky channel Propeller TV to show four 30 minute shows named "GTTV". The show mainly focused on player and staff interviews and match reviews. The project was eventually scrapped after the four shows aired.
Grimsby Town has popped up in two British films, being mentioned as one of Mike Bassett's former clubs in Mike Bassett: England Manager as well as the film ID.

Famous quotes containing the words town, popular and/or culture:
“Keep the town for occasions, but the habits should be formed in retirement.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“The best of us would rather be popular than right.”
—Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)
“A culture may be conceived as a network of beliefs and purposes in which any string in the net pulls and is pulled by the others, thus perpetually changing the configuration of the whole. If the cultural element called morals takes on a new shape, we must ask what other strings have pulled it out of line. It cannot be one solitary string, nor even the strings nearby, for the network is three-dimensional at least.”
—Jacques Barzun (b. 1907)
