Sofa For this one.

That was absolutely rancid. We’re going backwards. Was like Day 1 against Fleetwood but worse. Happy to urine about at the back passing between the back 4 and the keeper whilst creating absolutely intercourse all. Any half decent manager can set their side up against us, hit us on the counter and we are weak as intercourse to stand up against it. 3-0 against a side who have won 1 game in 15. 4 consecutive away games conceding 3

ONCE all season we have come from behind, we have the second worst goals against record in the division, we are mentally weak, and thats on both Artell and the players.

This is a terrible league in terms of quality, shown by the fact we remain ninth when we have lost 14 games. DA has had more investment in terms of analysts, fee’s for signings, than we have had for many a year, and whilst some will say give him time, im not seeing any substantial improvement. We are turgid, one dimensional and he is unwilling to change his way of doing it.

Grimsby Way? Not for me.

Tuesday night is a big big game, we need a performance

I have nothing positive to say, mid-table if we are lucky. A safe journey home to all the fans who travelled to Barrow, you deserved a better performance than what you saw.

DA gave the team a mini break and they rewarded him with that load of rubbish. They should all be fined a week wage for putting on a display like that.

I can't see a big crowd on Tuesday for the Gillingham game, but you never know.


You can please some of the forumites some of the time but not all the forumites all of the time

You don't need to be a tactical genius to beat us.  

1. Sit back and watch us pass it sideways.  
2.If we get too far up the pitch then put pressure on the player with the ball who will turn around and play it back.
3 Wait for a chance to break (usually from a loose pass), then go for goal.  
4. If point 3 has not worked, wait / play for a for a set piece because Gy can't defend them.
5.  Once ahead, go back to step 1.

I find it totally depressing. I just cannot watch it, as it winds me up. I dislike poncy, pointless passing at the back. We had the same last year and pressure from the fans enticed the manager to relent. I took a look at Newport/Swindon last night and it was a poor standard. Currently, our form is worse than Swindon', so we must be pretty bad. Still 17 points between us and Carlisle is the only consolation from today.

The big question to ask ourselves is have we progressed? If I look at the team within a league as poor as this, for modern times, then we've probably regressed. I can't bloody stand this passing about and doing nothing with it. We had 75% possesion for the first half and came in 1-0 down, it's just pointless possesion.

I've had enough of this experiment 'playing the Grimsby way'.

I’m happy to accept this is a season of consolidation (which it will be) but whilst that happens it’s really hard to stomach how urine weak we are when going behind in matches, it’s absolutely staggering to watch

Agree with everything Hagrid except the last sentence - it's not a performance we need but a fcking miracle.In the first half we had 73% possession but hardly got in their box. any dumbwit can pass a ball 5yards backwards or sidewards.
