Grimsby Town Football Club

About Us

Grimsby Town Football Club is an English football club based in the seaside town of Cleethorpes, North East Lincolnshire.

Founded in 1878 as Grimsby Pelham, the Club was renamed Grimsby Town a year later and went on to become Lincolnshire’s leading football club, spending many years in the top two divisions and twice reaching the semi-final of the FA Cup.

The Club is owned by 1878 Partners Ltd, and since their takeover in 2021, they have made it their mission for there to be a real tangible connection between fans and the Club.

Along with a long-established Men’s First Team who play in the EFL Sky Bet League Two, the Club also has an academy known for developing talent, a Women’s First Team who compete in Division One North and the Grimsby Town Foundation, which last year delivered a charitable spend of over £4m.

The next chapter of Grimsby Town Football Club is in our hands. Together, we can achieve greater things. And to achieve greater things we need a great team.
