Quoted from Jarmo.Is.God
Mike White believes we are done...


He’s not on his own there.


I was there, the day Bradley Wood scored a 35 yarder!

From the black and white striped shirts
To the fish in the sea
You'll hear us singing
Coz we are Grimsby.

You won't hear us crying
But you'll hear us shout
Coz we are the Grimsby
And this is our chant.......... Grimsby! Grimsby! Grimsby!

So assuming that’s it we have the following in contract beyond the end of the season

Efete
Glennon
Maher
Waterfall
Clifton
Green
Holohan
Hunt
Khan
Khori
Orsi

This  must be better then recent years but leaves us with another 300 page striker rumour thread to look forward to in the summer

Not a bad side that if you add a keeper.

If we are done, whichever way you choose to spin it, 3 young loanees and a short term deal for a guy who has barely kicked a ball in the past year is a hugely disappointing window.

When the owners came in, we were promised that we’d improve every window, this hasn’t happened.

All the excuses in the world can be rolled out but they are just that, excuses.

Looks like Mike White's deleted that tweet. If we are done though, it's poor recruitment. It's a point that's used to death, but if this was a transfer window under Fenty, we would be moaning about our typical lack of ambition. The owners said the target would be to improve the squad each window. Somehow we seemed to have weakened it with a completely unbalanced squad once again filled in with young loaners.

Im never one for getting on at the board and especially not Paul, but disappointed with our work. I dont believe for a second its due to lack of effort, but there has to be something fundamently wrong with our planning for us to be leaving the window in a worse state that what we started.

Location, being tight, aiming too high, players not wanting to come
Here for there own reasons, i dont know maybe a mixture of all, but its concerning. I dont for a second think we’ll go down, but we had 1 aim going into this window, and that was a number 9. And we failed, quite miserably. I saw the look on PH’s face last week in the interview, exhausted and demoralised. The latter i certainly feel tonight. Think a lot of others probably feel the same

It's a pretty usual January for us so it'll leave fans asking what has actually changed. We put more effort into staying up when we were in the middle of that takeover and Hurst came in but it was still mostly kids on loan and mercenaries on short term deals. Seems to be a pattern for us where we can only get that and most of the bigger targets we are linked with end up somewhere else.

This is a really small gripe but if we’re done the club could just confirm it on its various social media feeds etc… we’ve only been waiting 5 weeks. Since Sam left there feels like a bit of a disconnect at times.
