All Town Aren't We

"All Town Aren't We" is a film about Grimsby Town FC's dramatic 21/22 season in the National League - England's fifth division of professional football. Directed by Jack Spring this compelling documentary captures the highs and lows of the season, the essence of the football club and its passionate fans, blending dramatic pitchside camera work with interviews and official in game footage. It is an engaging and emotional journey for both football enthusiasts and those new to the sport.

But ultimately this film is more than a sports documentary; it's a celebration of resilience, community, and the enduring love affair between a town and its football club. "All Town Aren't We" stands as a testament to the profound impact football can have on a community.

A film close to my heart, about a northern town with a football club that means so much to the Town. Grimsby Towns amazing supporters who turn up week in week out to watch our amazing football team. It's a heart warming story about about GTFC "come back" - it cannot fail to hook you into the GTFC story. You don't have to be a football fan to appreciate the importance of this season to Grimsby Town. The big screen truly captured the events - I even clapped when we scored and I knew the ending!

We don't have a lot in Grimsby but we are going places and the people in Grimsby are some of the best you will meet.

Thank you to everyone who put this superb film together, for capturing, the fabulous efforts of our team, our super supporters , the Town and Club that we are immensely proud of.

A proper Northern football club. A rundown Town and mismanaged for 20 years. Once so close to the heavy heights of reaching the Premiership and now harbouring between the lower end of the league and closer to the non league scene yet again.

This doc shows exactly what a football club means to it's supporters. The same as all other lower league clubs. It's not just 1 it's all of us! Weather you're Rochdale, Bristol Rovers or Macclesfield. We've ALL been there and every real football fan that travels home and away to what some may call a waste of time, we cant help it. It's part of our lives. It defines our whole week and from ' never going again', you always come back a few days later because it's in your DNA.

You often hear supporters og higher league clubs moaning because theyre only 8th in the Championship. Well count your lucky stars because in the blink of an eye youre looking back thinking ' God i wish we were still in that position'!

Youve gotta experience the lows to appreciate the highs and this movie will make even the hardened top flight fan realise that.

The first viewing brought tears to my eyes, the 2nd did as well. This incredibly well put together documentary really showcases every emotion in life.

A stand out performance by Dan Maasdam and Ryan Reynolds, a partnership I for one hope to see more of in the coming years of Hollywood.

This isn't a film just for Grimsby Town fans. Nor fans of Football nor sports. But for fans of Cinema and the arts.

I was walking down Grimsby Road when a little man with a magic lamp came out of Fuller Street and asked me to rub his lamp which granted me 3 wishes. My First wish (which came before world peace and the end of poverty by the way) was to reset my life back to January the 4th so I have the chance to experience this masterpiece for the first time all over again.

10/10.

A simply wonderful celebration of hope, belief & community. This film tells the impossible to believe story of how Grimsby Town FC's players, club but most importantly fans at their lowest point found optimism that "this too will pass" & that they'd be back where they belonged, in the English Football League. I know the outcome of those National League 21/22 playoff and final games, I was there for 2:3 of them, but I felt nervous all over again watching again! This is a film for any true footie fan not only GTFC fans. It captures the very central place that a club can play in the hope & pride of a community. Special mention to both Liam Emerson for his immense contribution & to the work of Kristine Green & the Mariners Trust and the fans that raised >£40k to take fans who otherwise couldn't attend to the final #UTM #GTFC.
