You’re only six games away from the sack. Said someone. More than once.


We've lost 2 since our last win, so four more games to go.

Lets be honest no fornicator who is a) any good and / or b) commands a salary above that of the mere pittance on offer at GTFC is going to come to Grimsby Town anyway (look at the previous two morons)

Every time I say that in my opinion the poisoned dwarf should never have been re-appointed some smart twit always comes up with 'who would you have then?' Well I'd have Warnock. He loves a challenge, and lets face it Grimsby Town is certainly that, and who knows who might be interested if the money is right. He'd be  damn sight more dynamic that Hurst that's for sure


And like both of the “previous morons” he knows nothing about the game at this level, 30 odd years ago maybe he was familiar with non league but not now.

Maybe just maybe the players need to take some blame & accountability for the current bad run?

I don't think the board would recognise a good manager if they met one and with Warnock it wouldn't be half as long a 'project' (don't you hate that stupid word!) He'd have us back up long before the poisoned dwarf got anywhere near it


1. Neil Warnock is 73
2. We couldn’t afford his basic salary
3. We certainly couldn’t afford his promotion bonus
4. If we could afford 3 and 4, we wouldn’t be able to afford to sign any players
5. Warnock is Redknapp-ian in carting the same players from club-to-club. We couldn’t afford any of his entourage. We certainly couldn’t afford the 20 strikers he likes on the books.
6. With only one automatic promotion place it would be a huge risk and pressure for a Championship / L1 manager to drop down to non-league football
7. Warnock is mates with Slade (could work both ways)
8. Warnock was in the frame for the Cardiff City & Sheff Utd jobs. Admittedly he wasn’t appointed but still…
9. See point 5, which I won’t expand on for legal reasons / risk of defamation
10. There will be other clubs in the division with bigger budgets than us. We were never favourites for promotion. I don’t even think Warnock would get us promoted and certainly not automatically.


Do you have any sensible and obtainable targets?

I sense that Revans & Bapaga may well have their loans terminated come January and we will be looking for more experienced alternatives. We also desperately need to find another front player/striker as LJL is clearly not going to do what any team requires from their striker.

Defensively I am puzzled as to what has gone wrong as we looked to have eight decent defenders W it’s two reasonable and acceptable options for each position but away from home we just haven’t been able to cope and PH teams historically have been more efficient away from home grinding out hard earned victories and in his past period in charge I cannot remember when we lost so many away games on the bounce. Given these facts maybe we need to look deeper at the midfield and whether we need someone a bit more robust and physical to compliment the skills of Hunt & Fox. I keep banging the drum, and getting red crossed, for saying we need someone else on the left side of our midfield but the fact that there is apparently a continued problem down our left flank is in my opinion confirmation that this is required. Clifton played very well last year at left back and that might have been a better option today but hindsight always makes selection easier.

Importantly we need to win the home games versus Chesterfield and Borehamwood and get to January in a reasonable position and hopefully then make a couple of signings to get us back playing well and with confidence.

Can’t believe how many happy clappers are accepting this, Although nobody has a god given right to be promoted because of the size and history of the club we still deserve a lot better than this. I genuinely find this unacceptable, it’s time to put Town back where they belong and if Hurst isn’t the man let’s have him gone by Xmas

There aren’t any ‘happy clappers’.

Absolutely nobody on this forum is happy to have lost six out of the last seven matches. Not even professional optimist ‘DB’ will be upbeat about this run.

Find me an alternative manager available and obtainable.

You will struggle with this because you know very little about football.
