Also think Sean Pearson was lucky early in the game when he bought down Styche with a clumsy and deliberate foul when Styche was making a run on goal. I think some referees might have red carded that, but as this ref was so utterly useless (and for once, to our benefit) he completely missed it. Did rather sour the mood after as Styche then nearly got into a punch up with Macca (they were both face to face in the goal mouth at one point, and had each other by the throats) and various other incidents before being loudly booed off by us when he was subbed towards the end of the second half
It was a tactic to unsettle the town players, bit like Brodie and what he'll do when he comes.

Grimsby were a very decent side, they controlled the game for long periods and in their number 22 - they had the best player on the park. Comment from kiddys forum

A decent performance at the back from Toto, then? That's good to hear after his recent dodginess in defence!

Sadly there seems to be an ever growing amount of balderdash being soured by some fans who simply don't want hurst.
This has reached new levels this week. Some posters even said they would rather have lost, or at least had mixed feelings about the win, because it means Hurst won't get sacked! Simply staggering. Particularly when you consider that there has been no indication that the board are even close to pulling the trigger. We have clearly dropped more points than we would have wished but we're by no means out of the promotion shake up and given Hurst's superb track record over several years (at several clubs) of getting his teams in to the top 5 I wouldn't back against him doing it again.

Toto now on 4 yellows. If he gets another one before Christmas then he will get a 1 match ban.

He's only ever managed solo at Grimsby Town and we are the only club he's managed solo or otherwise at this level. Don't get me wrong, I'd love him to prove me wrong but I simply don't believe he has the nous or the charisma (to attract a decent striker) to get us out this league. More than that, I am extremely concerned about how long GTFC remains financially sustainable (at Blundell Park) as long as we stay in the Conference.

Toto is on 5 yellows, so a ban is imminent

One shot on target, one goal. I think luck was on our side today. We have to get better sooner rather than later.
Some may feel ,and i am one , that we have been unlucky in lots of ways ,including the injuries, this season . I could not get there ,or near a commentary yesterday , but when tondour interrupted the mudrats commentary , as i headed homewards on the M62 to tell us Town was one up , i punched the air. Now if we rode our luck a little i dont know .Three points at Kidddy will do for me I thought myself that the time for PH to go (if we was to get another in) was after the playoffs , After the excrement hes had off some of us so far this season i'm starting to warm to him.

I've no problem with people having doubts about him, it's the people willing him to fail that annoy me.
