First chance I had to see him yesterday and was very impressed. The Colbeck comparison is a terrible one on that showing, Mackreth has pace and can take players on. Something Colbeck could never do.


Exactly!  


Grimsby and proud!

I've seen Makreth in all games he has made an appearance this season, and to be honest I haven't been that impressed with him. Ok, he did alright on Saturday when he came on with 30 minutes to go, but if he had started he would probably just have been part and parcel of what was a dismal display. He came with a great reputation but for me he hasn't lived up to it yet

Having seen every game he has played or come on in even all the friendlies, I base my view on his ability to create anything which so far hasn't been up to much and that is where I draw the Colbeck comparison.

If he was that good one has to ask why isn't Paul Hurst picking him to start a game.

I would like nothing better for him to come on and terrorise defences and start creating chances for our forwards.

I thought when we signed him he had blistering pace and would be unstopable, so why keep him warming the bench

To be fair he's quick of the bench

Before Saturday he'd resembled Colbeck in pretty much every appearance. The Torquay game was the first time I'd seen him show flashes of what he's supposedly good at (running at fullbacks and putting in crosses).

He did well on Saturday.  Sometimes our players expected him to get a cross in and therefore did not support him or be there to provide an outlet.  We can make more use of his talents.
