Don’t rise to him. He’s clearly fishing.


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.

Hessenthaler gets 8 out of 10 every week and does nothing.

Like H Clifton - great energy but not much creativity

Whitehouse - up and down but lacks class


I'll ask you a question, do you actually know anything about football??...
Hessenthaler is superb at what he dies, breaks up attacks, protects the back 4 and uses the ball simply and efficiently...
Whitehouse gives you the box to box player who is always in the right place to collect the ball.
And in all honesty I'd puck Vernham or Cook in before Clifton...
Just understand one thing, we are Grimsby Town FC...not Barcelona....

perhaps, but the odd decent pass into the frontmen isn't too much to ask is it?

i know enough to understand that if you dont get the front players in the game, via a creative middle, you dont win games.

We had 30 percent of possession, that says to me we can't really get a foothold in the middle of the park, Hess does very little from an attacking perspective, and ask yourself how many goals that current 3 will give us this season,,,id suspect 10 might be about it.

Whitehouse in fairness probably needs 15-20 games before an assessment is made, Cook isn't strong enough, and Vernam I think is better wide, bit wide players are not what Jolley wants

Does the through ball from Clifton to put Green through against Bradford count?
