Walking outside the ground afterwards, loads of people were debating the double subs.

1) Some were pleased as it showed that S&H were prepared to make an early change.

2) Others were suggesting that S&H got their tactics and preparation wrong.

What do you think?


I remember being pelted with ice by the Norwich fans during the Milk Cup match, do you?

Do H&S have any tactics?  Unless their masterplan is to let Kempson hoof it aimlessly forward, I fear we are fooked.

I wouldn't suggest a 4-2-2 formation as above. What worries me is we don't actually pass the ball forward to players. At least it appears that way, we hit areas. I've never seen an area score a goal or whip a cross in. Is it a tactic or are the players that bad they can't pass the ball ten yards?

Well Kempson certainly can't.

No 2, pretty much all season.  N0 1 shows they are able to see it at least?


I was there, the day Bradley Wood scored a 35 yarder!

From the black and white striped shirts
To the fish in the sea
You'll hear us singing
Coz we are Grimsby.

You won't hear us crying
But you'll hear us shout
Coz we are the Grimsby
And this is our chant.......... Grimsby! Grimsby! Grimsby!

No other alternative than 4-4-2 too congested in midfield with no outlet hence all the lumping forward so that the big guy at the back could tussle with Duffy.

Sort of both for me.... I can see why they were tempted to stick with 433 after the Port Vale performance, but as someone else pointed out it clearly didn't work on the smaller blundell park pitch, but I'am happy they had the balls to admit their mistake and make the necessary changes when many managers would have stuck with it.

Has anybody ever seen 2 subs that early in a game for tactical reasons???? I know I haven't!

I am pleased that they were willing to make the subs early to change the game, however they must surely have had some information on this team before they chose their tactics? They must have known that Newport were more than likely going lump the ball forward to a big man and look to bring it down for their wide men?

Presumably they decided the midfield was too crowded since both teams were effectively playing with 5 in the middle, which meant Thanoj was the one who lost out to the two more experienced players, but I personally felt sorry for I'anson. I can only guess they wanted Pearson on for his heading ability but he is incredibly poor to my mind.

Several times he was easily turned, on others he was too slow to turn and appeared to be a liability. I'anson can more than hold his own aerially imo, and is a better all round player.
