Halifax fans don't seem remotely bothered if Wild leaves. Done o for 3 months but recent form is awful

Have to say it's depressing when you go through the candidates. The only one who is remotely interesting is Tim Flowers who's done a great job at Solihull for two years. At least long enough to know it wasn't a fluke last year
Having said that the last one from Solihull was doing ok and our dear leader is probably still having therapy to get over it

Quoted from TheRonRaffertyFanClub


Yes indeed, that bloke from Woking would be just as good, he did OK for a season or so down there so people say.

The only thing about Wild I suppose is his time as Oldham caretaker/manager which he did pretty well .......  though by his own admission he felt it was temporary. That's why Evatt is maybe a better option in terms of team building experience. But he might cost money ........ heaven forbid!



I would rather have Limbrick than Wild who has only been at Halifax a short time and according to their forum has made a solid start but the team is now starting to fall away and he has had a frosty reception of late by some supporters.

My preferred option, from the limited amount we know would be the Barrow manager, who by all accounts play a brand of football we can only dream about, but as you say it would probably cost money, and would he feel our board had the necessary ambition?

With every respect to Barrow, if we put our mind to it surely we could tempt him? In the now distant past we have lost managers to bigger clubs, and by every measure it would be a step up for him.

He's got a relegation on his CV which is always a bonus when applying for the Town job.

Picking a new team manager is just like a lottery,, pick and hope for the best. We have the players that can be good but need a manager to get the good out of them. Glad i am not our non chairman

Robbie Stockdale 12/1
Danny Butterfield 14/1

Quoted from Will Haddock
Pete Wild now odds on favourite apparently.

https://www.thesackrace.com/teams/grimsby-town

Does that mean that someone saw him in Steels, or is it more bookie bullsh!t in the absence of any information from the club?


I tend not to take much notice of a bookies list with Mike Newell on it.

Or do they know something we don’t 😧


The wife was going away for a girly weekend.
I jokingly remarked  'I don't know whether to spend it watching porn or watching football'
'you may as well spend it watching porn' she replied
That's understanding darling what makes you say that? I asked

She said 'Well you already know how to play football'

Out of the sack race list I would be excited by Tisdale and Larsson. However, these are two of the least likely to be interested so can see me being underwhelmed as well.

Hopefully we have had some leftfield applicant and Fenty pleasantly surprises everyone.
