Absolutely brilliant what MJ has done with a squad Sladeball had completely demoralised, if we allow him the budget he needs , we hi will be up there at the end of next season. Well done MJ and.especially well done players!

After the way the players played today, in fact recent games, makes me think they are nowhere as bad as I believed and perhaps it was more how they where made to play.

This is our Cowley moment I hate mentioning them gimps but we need to secure him and for once gamble on giving him a decent contract. His methods are modern his attitude is dynamic and his managerial style commands respect all that came from a gtfc player I know ..
Agree with you, 100% about Cowley. Very impressive young man who lives and breathes the game. But, I think he is destined for higher status. He is a rare commodity, an English manger with foresight and I would be surprised if Cowley did not manage in the Premiership. Michael Jolley could become our own Cowley. He is very intelligent, knows the game and is clearly a good coach. Has an excellent CV and only lacks experience at the moment. What he has done with this group of players is outstanding. We were in our knees and did not know where our next goal was coming from, let alone point. Jolley makes Slade look a dinosaur and, as someone else has said, if they had got rid of Slade sooner who knows? What went on in the club in the background I have now idea, but we were in freewill and thank God we have avoided the awful, terrible Conference for a second time,

Personally I think Cowley is a percentage manager who couldn't cope with high level football but really suited to low level football. Don't get me wrong I think they will probably go up this season but the next jump will be the last for Lincoln anyway. Having said that I still think the brothers might get a chance in the championship but I don't the success will follow quite as easily

I suppose time will tell. But Cowley has done a great job at Lincoln. You look at clubs such as Tranmere and Wrexham who just cannot get out of that wretched league (Tranmere still have a chance this year) and then see the stupendous season Lincoln had last year it suggests there is a lot about Cowley. York and Stockport have almost disappeared from sight (Unibond?) so I don't want Grimsby, an established club with a proud, proud history, to be anywhere the relegation places. We should be L1 at least and how i had appreciated more the years we had in the Championship punching above our weight and giving a bloody nose to a lot of good teams.

Which is funny, because Cowley left a better team at the time when he went to Lincoln

Hope the new owner will extend his contract and give him a substantial war chest to work with. Then aim for the top of the league and beyond. Championship in five years anyone?.

Back him in the summer let him restructure the club from top to bottom, let him rid the deadwood throughout and build us up .. anyone who can make this lot get a few points needs full control
We the fans need to support this and buy ST (if you can afford to etc) I don't like to defend anyone on the board but why would they chuck loads of money at him if the fans are totally against them/him (the board not MJ) but I agree I think he should be given as much assensibily possible
