Yes Hagrid, but certain league managers have never ever had the opportunity to manage a team that's not towards the bottom end of the table, yet they have done well with these teams, and should not be looked upon as terrible candidates. and also for your information Hagrid, we are not a woman's football team or a part time men's team so that point is invalid

Anybody out there thought Paul Doswell is a similar candidate to Bignot, both over achieving and both sold a player on to us.

Decent debate re. pros and cons. Not against Bignot but think TJ makes some good arguments regarding his lack of experience.


Up The Mariners!

Bignot has a decent playing career, cannot say I recall Doswell as having any exposure to League football???

In terms of who we're going to get, let's be fairly realistic: it's Grimsby Town we're talking about, not Inter Milan.  Talking of which ....

I'm going to start a Frank de Boer thread ....

I think a lot of people are going for Bignot because they want someone with a bit of flare. Most of the other candidates are much of a muchness.Hurst played safe most of the time with his team selections and like for like substitutions. I would rather see a 4-4 draw instead of a 0-0 one or win 4-3 instead of 1-0. Admittedly he hasn't managed at this level but he already seems to have adapted to the level that we just managed to get out of. He has played at a higher level himself so it's not as though everything will be new to him. Don't forget that it was him who saw the potential in Omar and signed him from Hinckley, not the Grimsby Town manager. He has also had a taste of success and will be hungry for more. If we don't get him he's going to find fame elsewhere

Going from conference north as winners to the conference were solihull are in the bottom half shows the gap is quite big, then going to the football league to a team around the playoffs is a big big jump imo.

Im not trying to put a downer on it but solihull to grimsby is just to much of a jump for my liking ,paul hurst did ilkeston then boston then us, he had boston in a good position , i just dont know why we he is on the shortlist as he has done nothing to warrant to be on our radar.

From managing infront of a few hundred to nearly 5000 on a saturday is a jump to far right now and him moving on to a club say like tranmere in conference football to get a taste of fulltime football then onto league football if he does well would be the right move but not right now.

Just looking at the conference league table and solihulls position puzzles me even more as to why we are even considering him.

What did the Midlands reporter have to say on Humberside?


I've wasted my life in black and white, a pathetic act for a worthless cause
