A completely different player to both, has the ability to control play, both defensively and offensively. As much as i like scottie browns passion, energy, drive and determination, i think craig is the perfect foil for him as he does whats required to allow brown to do it and is capable of taking over if brown is out of position or they've switched. Much much better than pre season though, agree totally.


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!

Clay was an inspired choice to sign for us by the manager when many fans did not want him.

To be honest Les.......felt the same.....
i judged him on a couple of pre season appearances and thought he was.....garbage....no doubt about it...junk...
however...have seen him twice since the season started now....and today especially thought he read the game brilliantly, retained the ball very well apart from a couple of times late on, spoilt their play well and most importantly seemed to gel naturally with Brown....
impressive performance.

Of course the Hurst haters won't want to admit that he got it right with Clay...

I disagree.

He's actually a much, much, much, much better version of the pre-season Clay!

Another good performance from him today and it is hard to see any parallels between the nervous, hesitant and generally poor player I saw against Donny and Mansfield with the capable and confident midfielder we've seen for much of the season so far.

Long may it continue!

Who 'hates' Hurst, or, for that matter, Clay? Are you serious?

A home victory and you want to be argumentative?

Lots of people have commented that Clay didn't look impressive in pre-season, and now he looks fantastic. That's just an even-handed statement of fact.

We won 3-0 today. Can't we just.......not dig and jibe at each other?
