Not much to report really. It was much better than the last home game and we were better than Carlisle, who looked just as poor as every other side that have come here this season, but as is our wont, we gifted them a goal with poor marking and you just knew we wouldn't get a serious shot at their goal after that, never mind an equaliser. Rotating front players today and none of them look like a proper striker.

Two poor sides, boring as fook. Apathy reigns at BP.

With all due respect Ginny we got a point in the last home game... nothing today.

I used to enjoy writing my in depth opinion on each game on the just back thread, but just can’t be bothered anymore.


"Falls to Arnold... Arnold! That's it! Thats it! He's sealed it! Grimsby Town are back in the football league!!! Just a minute to go and Nathan Arnold makes it 3-1! Look at the scenes behind the goal! Look at the relief! The agony is finally over!!!"

What is it with when they have a corner we bring everybody back into the box, there is no outlet so when we clear it they just automatically have the ball with nobody pressing them, hence they already start another attack, it has been this way all season, Slade has not got a clue!!!

Not leaving a player up when defending a corner is criminal. Even more so when a goal down.
Football is awful under Slade. Too negative, frightened to attack, stand off, always second to the ball, no belief.

When they had the ball they had options, with players moving into space to receive the ball. We were the exact opposite. When we have the ball there is no movement what so ever resulting in aimless balls that are easy to defend. We are too quick to get back to defend, but very slow to attack when we get it.

Something has to give soon, and it will be Slade that goes, paying the price on percentage football with no skill involved.

Just a quick thank you to Carlisle Utd today for demonstrating to everyone at Blundell Park what a goal actually looks like.

In all my time of supporting Town I don’t think I’ve ever bern as unenthusiastic as I am now about Town, me and my lad was just saying today that we’ve lost all interest at this moment in time. 👎


Grimsby and proud!

I'm more of an entertainment type fan than a results one. We may have got a point last time but it was more dismal a game than today by far. 1 point, 0 points, whatever.

Would we be better Ginny if we dispensed with the big men up top ie Matt, Hooper and Vernon? Play either Cardwell or Jones as a sort of false number nine with Dembele, DJ and Osbourne as the three behind? You don't need to be a big guy to hold the ball up, just need to be quicker to the ball. That big slow target man theory was left in the 20th century..

Don't know what K Osbourne has to do to get a game. We've no pace at the back and we also concede free headers, so what's the point of playing Collins and Clarke together? Osbourne's quicker and definitely better on the ball.

Didn't agree with Slade's signings in the summer. He's totally stuffed us and we've got 30 players on our books and only one left back and he's shite..
