Go and spend 10minutes looking at my last 5 years posts,
You will find I was more positive than most on here,
Every year I said we would get promoted,
When I go to a match I have never called our players in 60 years of following town,
Yes 60 years,
This is a prediction thread not what I hope the score will be thread.
So what do you think the score will be bright boy,
I said think, not hope.
Well done on your brownie points for how many years you've been following (and I use following purposely) the mariners, it obviously makes the drivel and negativity you've been posted for the last few weeks legitimate. I realise you live outside of Grimsby but if you'd have gone on Tuesday you'd have seen a positive performance, a poor result granted but with a bit of confidence we're going to turn it around. I actually predict that we'll spoil the party and sneak a 1-0 away win. Looking forward to seeing all of the fans who aren't supporting the team/manager when they need us most eat their words when we turn it around. Rant over.

0-0 A game of few chances...though even if we had loads it would probably still be the same score!

I bet I have been to more games than you sonny and have always supported them when at a game, BUT We are not at a game are we ? this forum gives us a chance to vent our frustrations without effecting the players on the pitch, Hurst has had my backing until a few weeks ago, I have said earlier in the season we have the best squad since we have been down here and we will not only get promoted but be Champions, Hurst has knocked all that positivity out of me ( that takes some doing ) He never bulls our players up but tells us how good the opposition are, He chops and changes not only the players but formations as well, If he can get a bit of fire that he says in his belly transferred to his mouth he might turn things round, BUT He is set in his ways and disagrees with everybody who things he is wrong, We will have a new manager soon and he will get the best out of our talented squad, If Fenty does it sooner rather than later we still might get promoted this season. Rant over as well.

I could see us getting a result in a low scoring game or going to pieces if we go 2 down.
If we do get a result at Wrexham I'd be delighted but it won't be a shining new dawn. We don't have any consistency, especially at home.

4-0 to Wrexham, though I sort of think we could sneak a win as Wrexham will want to attack, so if the defence can cope it suits our negative away tactics of trying to nick a goal and get the 1-0 win

1-1
Moult 77
Pearson 20
Can't remember the last time we lost by more than 2 goals so don't see why we'll get hammered.
Halifax away last season I think.

Well said Pete , I'm always looking for your posts as you appears to think the way I do . By the way Im' a 62 years old and supporting them for 53 years . These rose tinted glasses brigade many never have seen the good times like we have , which is a great pity . Am I at the end of my tether ? Yes . Is it getting harder to bother turning up to watch the same drivel ,? Yes . What do they say , " If it ain't broken don't change it " I like many think we need a change . I have been very supportive of both PH and RS , then of PH . However this season to me is going nowhere , my opinion . Really wish to be proved wrong like yourself , but we'll have to wait and see .

God you're boring. Why don't you just support the players rather than post your negative drivel constantly.
Up until recently, Pete was just about the most positive person on this board. Always thought we would win games and also that we would get promoted every season, so it's hardly constant negative drivel. I can fully understand why some people are negative at the moment. Does that make them boring?
