This is the club's fourth stadium. They originally played at Clee Park until 1879, they then moved to Lovett Street for a single season, before returning to Clee Park for a further nine years. The Mariners then moved to <a href="/wiki/Abbey_Park_(Grimsby)" title="Abbey Park (Grimsby)">Abbey Park</a> until 1899 before a move to Blundell Park, the club's current stadium.<a href="#cite_note-GTFC_Company_History-1">[1]</a> In 1953 the club introduced its first floodlights to the ground and with that enabling Grimsby Town to play night-time fixtures.<a href="#cite_note-Pitching_in_photo_ideas!-134">[134]</a> Tall floodlights were purchased second hand from <a href="/wiki/Wolverhampton_Wanderers_F.C." title="Wolverhampton Wanderers F.C.">Wolverhampton Wanderers</a> in 1958 and installed in 1960 at a cost of £9,000 which was raised by the supporters club, they have illuminated matches ever since when required. However, in 2019, these original lights were replaced with newer, brighter lights. Three of the four original pylons remain.<a href="#cite_note-MoG24–25-5">[5]</a><a href="#cite_note-Let_There_Be_Light-135">[135]</a> The stadium has had an all-seated capacity of just 8,777 in recent years, being in and around 27,000 before the stadium was made all seated in 1995. The club's demise from the second tier of English football, down to the fourth meant the expansion seating was removed. This brought the overall capacity down from around 12,000 to what it is today. Situated inside the Findus Stand at Blundell Park, is "McMenemy's Function Suite", named after former manager <a href="/wiki/Lawrie_McMenemy" title="Lawrie McMenemy">Lawrie McMenemy</a>. Since the late 1990s, there have been plans for a new 20,200-seat stadium at nearby <a href="/wiki/Great_Coates" title="Great Coates">Great Coates</a> – tentatively titled the Conoco Stadium after a naming rights deal with the American energy corporation <a href="/wiki/ConocoPhillips" title="ConocoPhillips">ConocoPhillips</a>.<a href="#cite_note-136">[136]</a> There have been numerous delays to the development of the new stadium. The plans have been met with resistance from many residents of the local area surrounding the proposed stadium site, but other factors have also slowed progress. One of the most notable difficulties for the club was in demonstrating how it planned to finance the scheme. As a result, they later amended their proposal to include a retail park on the site, which would help to fund the development. This raised other problems, due to a rival proposal by the property developer <a href="/wiki/Henry_Boot_plc" title="Henry Boot plc">Henry Boot</a>, who are continuing with plans for their own retail park, which will be in direct competition with the Grimsby Town site and which has also been approved by the local council. Henry Boot attempted to have the football team's development plan stopped, by asking for it to be sent for judicial review by the Government, however their attempt failed. Currently, the Grimsby Town stadium development proposal has satisfied all the conditions that were imposed by planning officials and consent for the project has been granted. Initial estimates had suggested that the club would be able to move to the new stadium for the start of the 2011–12 season. However, as a result of the ongoing global recession, the club has halted all progress on the new development and it is unlikely that any work will begin until an upturn in the economy. As of the 2012–13 season, the GTFC Supporters Trust known as the 'Mariners Trust' has taken over responsibility for the operation of most of the bars at the stadium, which hopefully will lead to refurbishment, and new ideas from fans as to how the bars operate. Plans were underway to relocate the club to land at the side of the <a href="/wiki/Peaks_Parkway" title="Peaks Parkway">Peaks Parkway</a> in Grimsby.<a href="#cite_note-137">[137]</a> As of 2020, new plans have been agreed with the council, Grimsby Town FC and The Freemen of Grimsby to build the stadium on recently cleared land off Freeman Street. <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Rivalries">Rivalries</h2>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Grimsby_Town_F.C.&action=edit&section=16" title="Edit section: Rivalries">edit</a>]</div> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1236090951"><div role="note" class="hatnote navigation-not-searchable">Main articles: <a href="/wiki/Humber_derby" title="Humber derby">Humber derby</a> and <a href="/wiki/Lincolnshire_derby" title="Lincolnshire derby">Lincolnshire derby</a></div> <table class="wikitable" style="float:right; font-size: 90%; text-align: left;"> <tbody><tr> <th style="background:#000000; color:#FFFFFF;">Club </th> <th style="background:#000000; color:#FFFFFF;">Last Match </th> <th style="background:#000000; color:#FFFFFF;">Season </th></tr> <tr> <td><a href="/wiki/Scunthorpe_United_F.C." title="Scunthorpe United F.C.">Scunthorpe United</a></td> <td>L 3–0</td> <td>2020–21 </td></tr> <tr> <td><a href="/wiki/Hull_City_A.F.C." title="Hull City A.F.C.">Hull City</a></td> <td>L 3–0</td> <td>2020–21 </td></tr> <tr> <td><a href="/wiki/Doncaster_Rovers_F.C." title="Doncaster Rovers F.C.">Doncaster Rovers</a></td> <td>L 5–1</td> <td>2023–24 </td></tr> <tr> <td><a href="/wiki/Lincoln_City_F.C." title="Lincoln City F.C.">Lincoln City</a></td> <td>L 1–2</td> <td>2024–25 </td></tr> <tr> <td><a href="/wiki/Boston_United_F.C." title="Boston United F.C.">Boston United</a></td> <td>W 6–0</td> <td>2006–07 </td></tr> <tr> <td><a href="/wiki/Barnsley_F.C." title="Barnsley F.C.">Barnsley</a></td> <td>W 6–1</td> <td>2003–04 </td></tr> <tr> <td><a href="/wiki/Rotherham_United_F.C." title="Rotherham United F.C.">Rotherham United</a></td> <td>L 2–1</td> <td>2009–10 </td></tr> <tr> <td><a href="/wiki/Sheffield_Wednesday_F.C." title="Sheffield Wednesday F.C.">Sheffield Wednesday</a></td> <td>W 2–0</td> <td>2003–04 </td></tr> <tr> <td><a href="/wiki/Sheffield_United_F.C." title="Sheffield United F.C.">Sheffield United</a></td> <td>L 4–2</td> <td>2016–17 </td></tr></tbody></table> Grimsby Town's geographical region pits them against three main professional rivals, two of which like Grimsby are from the former county of <a href="/wiki/Humberside" title="Humberside">Humberside</a>. <a href="/wiki/Hull_City_A.F.C." title="Hull City A.F.C.">Hull City</a>, on the north bank of the <a href="/wiki/Humber_Estuary" class="mw-redirect" title="Humber Estuary">Humber Estuary</a> have traditionally been viewed as Grimsby's main rival but a contrast in their recent fortunes has meant that the two clubs have not met in the League since 1987, prior to a 2020 <a href="/wiki/EFL_Trophy" title="EFL Trophy">EFL Trophy</a> victory for Hull the clubs had last met in 1997 when The Mariners won 1–0 in the same competition. The closest football club to <a href="/wiki/Grimsby" title="Grimsby">Grimsby</a> are <a href="/wiki/Scunthorpe_United_F.C." title="Scunthorpe United F.C.">Scunthorpe United</a>, The Iron are mainly regarded as Town's biggest rival although historically Scunthorpe have played most of their football in divisions below The Mariners. In the mid-2000s Grimsby's fall from the second tier to the fourth was followed closely with Scunthorpe earning several promotions, with the 2004–05 season being the only campaign both sides met in the same division before being reunited once more in 2019. Games involving any of the former Humberside clubs are known as the <a href="/wiki/Humber_derby" title="Humber derby">Humber derby</a>. In more recent times games against <a href="/wiki/Lincoln_City_F.C." title="Lincoln City F.C.">Lincoln City</a> (a <a href="/wiki/Lincolnshire_derby" title="Lincolnshire derby">Lincolnshire derby</a>) has been Grimsby's primary derby game, although historically Lincoln are another local side who have predominantly spent a lot of time in lower divisions to the ones Grimsby have regularly featured in, Town's relegation to <a href="/wiki/EFL_League_Two" title="EFL League Two">League Two</a> in 2004 renewed this rivalry with notable games being the play-off semi-final in 2006 in which Grimsby ran out 3–1 winners on aggregate. In a contrast to Mariners fans regarding Scunthorpe as their main rival, supporters of Lincoln City would regard Grimsby as theirs. A slight rivalry with <a href="/wiki/Sheffield_Wednesday_F.C." title="Sheffield Wednesday F.C.">Sheffield Wednesday</a> intensified between 2000 and 2004, with the two clubs competing with each other in relegation battles over four seasons in both the <a href="/wiki/Football_League_First_Division" title="Football League First Division">First</a> and <a href="/wiki/Football_League_Second_Division" title="Football League Second Division">Second Division</a> but the clubs have not met since this period. <a href="/wiki/Barnsley_F.C." title="Barnsley F.C.">Barnsley</a>, <a href="/wiki/Doncaster_Rovers_F.C." title="Doncaster Rovers F.C.">Doncaster Rovers</a> and <a href="/wiki/Boston_United_F.C." title="Boston United F.C.">Boston United</a> are three other examples of clubs who have shared some kind of rivalry with Grimsby in past seasons, whilst they were in the second and fourth tiers respectively.
