One things for sure, maths teachers all over Grimsby are patting themselves on the back reading this thread 😂


I like maths, but it does not matter how you sugarcoat this, if Sutton do better than us on the weekend, then they are a threat. The Colchester position hangs on how we do against them and I fear it.
Sutton will be braver than us that is for sure. That said I am not too critical of Artell as a point last night would’ve been a good result. If we go down, he is extremely likely to lose his job and so in his position, it is hard to argue that he would not act with caution. I have looked at all combinations and three points should be enough utm

Swindon have lost 11 of 21 away games this season conceding 45 in the process. We should be picking up 3 points.


A team playing Swindon at home should be picking up three points.  However, we are Grimsby Town.

Safe after Crewe

The last time we finished on 43 points, in 2021 we were relegated. Last year Hartlepool were relegated on 43 points.

We will have a better idea of how many points we need on Saturday. The crucial thing is what happens at Harrogate. We are about to go into two tough away games and its conceivable we could lose them both.  A Sutton win piles the pressure on us. If they lose things are much easier. As is the maths. We stay up if we win one more game this season.

I don't expect anything from the Crewe game. If we  do lose let's hope its by a small margin as the goal difference differential verses Sutton is not that great.

I don't fancy our chances at Crawley either, so the Colchester and Swindon games look .like our best hope for points.

Colchester are a better team than us at the moment and we’ll need some luck to get anything there

Colchester have won one game at home this year and indeed since the Cowley's took over.  That was against Newport, who we can all agree are excrement.

They've failed to beat Accrington who were bang out of form and played a half with ten-men and FGR (who we beat and never threatened our goal, they scored 3 against Colchester).

They draw a lot of games but don't win many.  They've won just one of their last 10 (we're on 3).  Over the last 6 games they've picked up a point more than us owing to an extra game drawn.

It's hardly a fortress.

Although their pitch did have a moat

The drawing lots and winning very few is the perfect recipe for League Two relegation, as we well know. Our form over the last 10 of W3 - D3 - L4 is roughly mid-table form - a continuation of that pattern (let's say W1 D1 L2) over our remaining games would be more than fine.


A smooth sea never made a skillful mariner.

I have a feeling that when next Tuesday comes around a draw will suit both Town and ColU, if you know what I mean...
