Evidently the reserves are at Mansfield today, not that you would know with nothing in the local media/website.

Some people say what does it matter but others thing we should be informing the supporters of whats going on. Is Asante playing for instance would seem to be of interest

Given that we've only got one checkatrade game left these are of increasing importance, so it would be nice if the club could provide some more coverage.

Town: Killip, McMillan, Powles, Keeble, Sawyer, Clifton, Akiotu, Oyibo, Lawson, Asante, Burrell, Goddard, Davis, Lawman, Briggs, Jamieson, Buckley.

Wonder why Kelly, Tomobola, Cardwell, Osbourne, Hooper are not in the squad..Mills too I would think needs game time.

The club have a story on the official website with all the team news. What more do you need? Whether the local media cover it or not is their prerogative, don't think you can fault the club for that one.

Guessing the manager knows what they can do and wants to bring on the some of the youth element....also with an eye on strengthening the squad as he knows he needs cover for certain areas so stick some triallists in.

Strangely enough, just recently I have been setting my alarm for half an hour after kick off.  Gives me chance to wake up fully for my half time pint  


The wife was going away for a girly weekend.
I jokingly remarked  'I don't know whether to spend it watching porn or watching football'
'you may as well spend it watching porn' she replied
That's understanding darling what makes you say that? I asked

She said 'Well you already know how to play football'

Fans are quick to have a go at Town when they already have a report and some quotes from Paul Wilkinson. I went there to see how Asante got on.  https://www.grimsby-townfc.co.uk/news/2017/octobermreserves-seen-off-by-strong-stags-side/

What do you want? A minute-by-minute account of a reserves match? Get a grip! It's away as well so maybe the person(s) that usually do it didn't travel.

Match report on the OS.

Let's be critical of the club but stick to where its justified.

I would expect if no recovery in sight those conversations must be starting pretty soon if not already. Shame as on paper him, Clements & Osbourne looks pretty reasonable if all fully fit & well. To lose all three is unfortunate to say the least.

Have to say our line up today a big surprise especially as Mansfield put out a strong team. Would have expected most of the lads who played at Scunny to put in an appearance so seems very odd. Wonder if there is a behind closed doors matching taking place as surely a number of guys need a full 90 minutes under their belt.

Games like this one today are a great tool to see how some of the YT's do against some older, seasoned pro's and can be a good indicator or contribute to their final decision I'd imagine.

Sounds like a young side did alright.

The tone of Slade's response when he was asked about McAllister on Saturday gave an indication to me that he wont be playing for us anytime soon or possibly again, he seemed quite dismissive when saying he wasnt close to being involved.

From what i have been told it is highly unlikely that SM will play for Town again. As always time will tell. Shame as i thought he was a cracking signing at the time

Its not good having a wage paid every week to someone that is prob not going to play again at this level.. would have thought he could just retire hurt and claim his players pention  ,, and free up his wages  for us to get someone in that can play.
