Does Cowley sniff in the video

Was that Cowley? Thought it was Gareth Gates

Sat thinking about this whilst on hols and the more I think about Cowley the more I like it
Speaks well and always seems very professional and very very ambitious
Could be a good match for us as life is about timing
Would just need to prove himself attack wise as was / is very defensive
Could we simply not offer him more money than gimps as shrews did to us
Look at this way
-He would struggle to hide his ambition to be a league manager of a forward thinking club- (that's us by the way)
-He would want the plaudits and the feeling a bigger club would bring-
-They already live in the area-
-They have witnessed first hand the excellence of our away support- (who the hell wouldn't want to be on the receiving end of that)
-They have the opportunity to win over the home support with a couple of quick wins-
-Best take someone on who is on the way up with big but realistic ambitions rather than someone who thought it was a just a job (it's Gy but I need a job)
-Oh and by the way boys the salary is double-
JF you have my permission to use any of these bargaining points when you make you're approach..
Come on Town!!

You really think we'd be able to double their salaries? I'm sure Lincoln are paying them at least a decent wage in order to tempt them to give up their jobs as teachers (average salary of about £35K p.a) and to take up management full time. Whilst we're undoubtedly a bigger club than Lincoln, we're not that much bigger to start suggesting that we'd be able to double their salaries as well as paying the inevitable compensation that Lincoln would want. If we were going to start throwing that sort of money around we'd be better off trying to tempt a manager with good league experience and a history of success like Evans or Adkins.

The way Lincoln City fans come across is like they'll be in The Premiership in 5 years , and we are just a village team . Like I've stated before I hope they stay non- league after their less than charitable away following over recent years .... F-em . Fox 🐺

Heard Cowley on local radio earlier tonight and he was pretty emphatic he was going nowhere and for once he sounded like a football manager who was telling the truth so think no chance of him moving over to sunny Cleethorpes.

Nathan Arnold has just scored for them tonight.

Hurst cools talk of Shrewsbury Town links

GRIMSBY Town boss Paul Hurst has distanced himself from talk linking him to the manager's job at Shrewsbury Town.

Following Saturday's 0-0 draw with Exeter, Hurst was asked about reports linking him with the vacant position at the League One side.

"I know nothing about those links," he insisted. "I'm manager of Grimsby Town and trying to do the best I can here.

"The job in hand is here and we've got to try and finish as high up the table as we can. I just want to concentrate on playing better football than we did on Saturday.

"It doesn't affect me in my job in the slightest, I've been in football long enough. If you take your eye off the ball then you'll have problems.

"I can assure you that i'm not thinking of anything other than Grimsby Town."

I know it's difficult to understand sometimes, but maybe, just maybe, there are still some 'principled' people left in football. People who are not duplicitous, who actually show loyalty and who actually mean and believe in what they say. And hats off to them!

"I'm big on honesty", he added, some weeks later.

"I'm big on honesty", he added, some weeks later.

Cowley more or less said the same things.  I bet his name is put on the table when it comes to ideas for a new manager.  Now that we have had one manager from the lower leagues with more or less the same ethos, I would not be surprised if Fenty is thinking of Cowley as a candidate, already got some compensation money to put towards grabbing some low league manager.

Still think we need an experienced league manager with some promotions under his belt.
