No doubt, superb interview. First Town manager interview I remember was Lawrie Mac after we'd been on Match of the Day, away at Bournemouth, Lawrie was very good in front of the camera and went onto punditry, IH can give a massive lift Gy and Clee like Lawrie did and make people feel proud again. I just hope he's here for alot longer...

I said on another thread I'm so desperate for this to work out and not all be total bull$hit. It's going to be so interesting watching how the boys perform in the next few games. Will we see a step up in physical effort, style of play, movement off the ball, getting balls into the danger area and most of all finishing?
How many games should it take to see a difference or the suspicion it's all smoke and mirrors??
I'm so nervous and excited, I feel like a kid at Christmas. Please don't let me down Santa

I remember Lawrie Mac being interviewed on a plane journey from a European game, on BBC TV, where he was asked about his view of one of the goalkeepers in the match.
His reply ' I've got 3 goalkeepers at Grimsby better than him '.

In one of IH interviews he said he was happy with our solid defence and that he would be concentrating on improving our attacking going forward.

Does anyone eles have a problem with i follow i go to login with the correct password but get a loading screeen or it takes me back to the login # .


Yes. This happens when I try to log on away from home. This time, the email link for resetting the password isn't working. Nothing in Inbox, junk etc. Very frustrating. Says 'contact customer support' but no hint of how to do this. Tried to email but when I had to copy the numbers and letter code, to prove I am who I say I am it just gives another code. Same on lap top and phone. Back home now and using chrome as usual. Job for Monday now, soon time to head for Mansfield.

It mentions in the GET about his reaction after his first training session with the squad. One bit that did impress me was where he said " I'm going to give the lads a ten, because they did the little things that I wanted them to do probably six weeks down the line". So we have a squad that is able to listen and implement coaching instructions. I've felt all season that we have a fairly decent squad that just needed coaching properly - something that MJ didn't seem capable of.

Blatantly obvious that the team didn't know what jolly was talking about P.S. I don't think he knew himself

Anyone else feel that this is all a dream? Haha just 2 weeks ago it was the end of the world and now we have Ian Holloway in charge of us who has openly said we have people queuing up to join us, he’s invested his own money and brought the feel good factor back (just at the right time if you ask me) I feel that we will move forward now, maybe take some time but while we have IH in charge of us and getting the right players in and getting outside investment who knows how far we can go.

It’s made my new year and I feel so positive about this.

Grimsby and proud!

To misquote the great Alan Turing:

“It is the manager that everyone expects so much of, that does the great things no Town fan thought was possible less than a month ago”

Or should we defer this for a few months and assess then?
