Season summary
[edit]In the 1995–96 season, Grimsby had a disappointing campaign and Laws' initially successful managerial reign deteriorated after he clashed with Grimsby player Ivano Bonetti. Laws reportedly threw a plate of chicken wings at the Italian following a 3–2 defeat at Luton Town in February 1996 and caused the popular player to leave the club at the end of the season.[1] Grimsby finished the season in 17th place and were in the battle to avoid relegation right up to the penultimate game of the season.
