Hi Mariners,

You may be interested in my season preview for your lot - http://www.TheFootbalLab.co.uk/2017/grimsby-town-season-preview-mills-impresses/

Just wondered how you think you'll do this year? Personally see you finishing in the bottom half again as I don't feel like you've strengthened. Could be wrong though.

We don't need to strengthen by much to finish in the top half.  We also know the division better and what is required.  A better manager (s) than last season and more stability with the new management team.

I've got more faith in Slade to manage a team to be consistent enough to finish in the top half than I did in Bignot. We weren't that bad with Hurst for the first few months of the season really although I suppose we did have Bogle. I'm hoping we'll see a better spread of goalscorers this season.

A few have said the same. Who do you expect to be among your best attacking players this year then? Heard some good things about Jamey Osborne.

I think the "ageing defence and uninspiring frontline" is an understandable description. However, the 33+ year old defenders are pretty good, and just behind the frontline are Osborne and Jones who are our real creative force.

We may not have massively strengthened but we have a much more astute manager in charge now I would be surprised if we don't at least threaten the playoff positions.

I am not going to sit on the fence, I think we will finished 6th and maybe surprise a few and finish higher.
