GRIMSBY Town supporters have launched an online petition in support of the club's plans to build a new stadium on land off Peaks Parkway.
As reported, at a meeting of North East Lincolnshire Council's Cabinet yesterday, Park Ward Councillor Andrew De Freitas presented a petition of 450 signatures in opposition to the Mariners' plans.
In response, this afternoon, a supporters group, under the name of 'GTFCsayYES' have launched a petition of their own to gather the signatures of those who are in support of the project.
After going live, the petition quickly received over 200 signatures, with the group also taking their campaign to social networking site Twitter.
And they appear to have the support of Mariners' midfielder Scott Kerr, who used his personal account to retweet the petition to his 2,805 followers.
