A good break will help Harry Cardwell. I wish him all the best, I don't think he's good enough for Grimsby. I can't sugar coat it, but I really really hope he proves me wrong and goes on to do brilliantly well for us, move on, big transfer fee, big wages, his own castle and wins in life. I saw Jack Lester come through the youth team, though he was shite. What do I know? Cardwell is already 100 x the player I ever was and I would be delighted if he did the business. He's 23, now or never mate.

I like Cardwell. He's big, he's strong and he's quick. I really hope he does well on his loan spell and comes back firing. He has all the ingredients and i hope IH can coach him into showing it on the pitch. Thought he was great in our escape from the drop when MJ first came in.

Go on Harry, now or never.

Cardwell was the best player on the pitch for me at the reserves game the other day but still didn't manage to score, shame as Ollie was watching, it's a funny old game.


When Leeds trainer Les Cocker was once told Norman Hunter had broken a leg, he asked: “Whose is it?”

I think the club has high hopes for Battersby, I was told he is the only keeper from our academy to be given a pro contract for 30 years. Not sure how true that is?

There's been a few who've been first year pros since hasn't there? (Overton, Fraser, Bastock off the top of my head)

It’s strange how it’s the only truly specialised position to play yet probably the easiest one to get a pro contract because you’re likely to be second choice at best in your first contract term.

Croudson of course, not sure how I forgot him 🤦‍♂️

Thought Love wasn't very good tbh (but he was playing in the second tier)

Wow! Usually a 2 year contract is the best you can hope for.
