Mariners,

Written up some neutral thoughts ahead of your game at Crawley and the future for both clubs - http://www.TheFootbalLab.co.uk/2017/grimsby-v-crawley-the-summer-ahead/

Kept a fair few clean sheets lately but not many goals - Bogle's exit the key reason or a lack of invention behind the attacking play?

All the best for the rest of the season and beyond.

Full of bright ideas, seen some great performances at Plymouth, Carlisle and at home to Mansfield but equally some dire ones at Morecambe, Stevenage and most notably Crewe.


I've wasted my life in black and white, a pathetic act for a worthless cause

A fair article Gabriel. At least as far as Grimsby are concerned. Don't know enough about Crawley.


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.

I was actually in the away end for the Crewe game, that first half was remarkable. Davies kept pushing up but didn't have the pace to get back, nobody was covering behind him. Gave them far too much space.

For me MB hasn't done to bad, yes he has made some silly changes and quite probably we could of been in the play offs who knows if he didn't make the changes he has, this is rebuilding again for us but next season I don't think he will have a excuse for performances he got most of the players he wants, possible 5-6 incomings in the summer clearly a few being shipped out, I honestly think we are in good hands with MB but time will tell, let's just sit back and enjoy the ride (maybe) UTM ⚪️⚫️


We're on our way back, we’ll was now on our way back to non league 👍🏻

Jury still out for me, I hope he succeeds as this will mean Town are succeeding, but if I'm being honest with myself I don't think he will be manager come Christmas........just my opinion. UTM's

Doesn't see the obvious for me, depends how next season pans out, bottom mid table, worrying our guts out won't be acceptable.
Until then jury's still out, I want him to succeed. We shall see.

I've not been very impressed with Bignot thus far. For me, we've seen too many changes at the club too fast with little obvious pattern of play on show as yet and I think a gradual building process would have been more successful/sensible than the wholesale turnover of players.

That said, if Bogle hadn't departed at the end of January, I expect we would have a good few more points on the board and we might well be in or on the verge of a play-off place. The manager doesn't have control of everything that goes on and replacing Bogle's goals would have been nigh on impossible whoever was in charge.

Early days.  Look how long Hurst had to get it right?  

A new manager needs time to bring-in his own players and introduce new systems.  Look how Fergie struggled at the beginning at Man U.

Five years of Hurst, five months of Bignot with mostly someone else's team and having lost the leading scorer - very hard to compare, need to evaluate in October/November next season, not now.
