It's difficult to know really because we have nothing to judge it against, seeing as it has been such a long time since we had much to enthuse about. Yeah, the results were generally good in non league, but most hated every minute of it and we should never have been in that league. It was mostly boring routine football. No manager has got a buzz about the place for years and years. We never came close to doing what Mansfield, Lincoln and some other teams did by storming the league. We spent a paltry few weeks at the top of the table in all the 6 years. It was always a lottery, season after season and it was only after the Braintree second leg that i actually felt we were going to get promoted. So it took 6 whole years to get that belief and it lasted for one game, which we won. We get back in the league and after a great start, it all falls apart, with managers coming and going, player coming and going, and once again it all looks a bit of a shambles. It's not a Grimsby thing, it's a Grimsby Town thing because we never have anything we can believe in and get behind.

Agree with that
I have a question?
What does Slade and Wilko do with the players in training all week??
As I see no difference at all in these last few weeks that would suggest things are going to change?
Feel v depressed been a town fan at the moment

Quoted from toontown
Out of interest how did the crowd react to Amond - did he get a round of applause or cheers? Good reception like Arnold?


Sat in the main stand he got a decent reception no sledging or abuse most people were more bothered about our own problems and rightly so.

Slade got more abuse but even that was very muted you could hardly hear the Slade out chants from the Ponny so I don't think that rattled him at all.

To be honest I think the fans have gone past anger and just about had enough.  

That is the big worry we are accepting this dross as an inevitable slide towards non-league again.
