Grimsby Borough FC, Grimsby, Lincolnshire
Grimsby Borough FC, based in Bradley, are members of the Northern Counties East League (NCEL) and play in Division One.
The club was established on 21 July 2003 by a group meeting at the Lord Tennyson pub in Louth and joined the Lincolnshire League for the start of the 2003–04 season, earning promotion to the Premier Division of the Central Midlands League.
Although they finished second in the division in 2004–05, the club were unable to take promotion as their ground did not meet the required standard. In 2006–07 they finished runners-up again, and were able to take promotion to the Supreme Division, having agreed to groundshare at Brigg Town.
Despite only finishing twelfth in 2007–08, Borough were invited to join Division One of the NCEL. They also won the Lincolnshire Junior Cup, beating Skegness Town on penalties after a 3–3 draw.
On Wednesday 11 July 2012 the first ever Grimsby derby was played between Borough and their professional cross town neighbours, Grimsby Town, who won the pre-season friendly 12-3.
The club currently play at the Bradley Football Development Centre.
