Talking about knees,

I am sure I put more effort in and was in more pain walking to the away end from my car,

Than most of the players put in all game,

Not many clubs take 800 fans to Cambridge so we are a big club in that aspect.

I would manage town because I’m a fan and I love the club.

Would I do a good job?

Well, no. I’d be terrible. My experience runs to a couple of seasons on FIFA manager mode. I’d still be better than a slade though.

If I imagine I was actually a manager with a footballing background and badges and stuff then no. I wouldn’t manage town.

At the minute we have a club in free-fall no wins in a number of games (I’ve actually forgot the number. 12? 13?) a team made up of utter dross, a non chairman with a massive ego. A club based in an unfashionable area of the country. ... do we need to go on?

For an up and coming manager it may be seen as a stepping-stone to better things, they could look at how Hurst as climbed after leaving us but he’s the exception to the rule. How many other managers have left us to go into better things?

For an older manager this club has the air of a last job. Can you see slade getting employed again? Who’s going to want “sacked by Grimsby” on their CV in a couple of years time?

All of this is what is so concerning. The next appointment is crucial to the future of the club. I fear the pool of interested parties may be a little shallow.

Which players didn't you think put any effort in Pete?

Yeah that should do the trick, Lew. Safety is assured.

I think you may have been taking things too literally there.
