Quoted from Limerick Mariner


Agree completely - for all his limitations we have missed his energy and commitment - to stop the opposition playing through the midfield…


What? Who, out of Holohan, Clifton and Conteh lacks energy?

Quoted from Hagrid


are you his dad?

He’s shown nothing when he has played, and clearly he isnt doing anything in training either. Just not worked out for him here, one of them things


Odd though, that we had him on loan and hurst practically chased him to sign him for what three years? Now he’s not good enough and can’t get near the first team. Something has gone off. It might be that it’s turned out he’s not up to it by hursts standards but then that’s worrying.


I was there, the day Bradley Wood scored a 35 yarder!

From the black and white striped shirts
To the fish in the sea
You'll hear us singing
Coz we are Grimsby.

You won't hear us crying
But you'll hear us shout
Coz we are the Grimsby
And this is our chant.......... Grimsby! Grimsby! Grimsby!

Apologies if I’ve missed this but is Harry Clifton injured, because I see he’s not in the starting 11 or even on the bench. Thanks.

You could argue Clifton has shown just as little this season but walks into the squad unopposed.

Not saying Hunt has torn up trees but the whole situation feels very strange.

I’d really love to know what Hunt has done wrong.


What’s he done right and why is he on a 3 year contract unbelievable

I’m not his dad. Hurst based his pre season on a midfield that included Hunt, a player who he made a big deal of fuss about signing on a long term deal, a player who ripped it up in his first spell. After 70 minutes of our second game at Notts County, he gets subbed and has only been seen once since in a league starting eleven only when Conteh was suspended.

If we were winning games then so be it but our midfield has been generally woeful and , more often than not, worse than our opponents. We’ve been crying out for a bit of quality.

And please don’t give me any excrement about Hunt making mistakes, we’re already coughing up enough goals through individual errors.

Main Stand looks 75% empty, it could be a very low gate.

Personally, if Hurst stays, hunt may yet be less than half way through his 3 year contract but I just don't see him staying for the duration of it. Loaned out in January I would expect, gone in the summer. Certainly wouldn't have thought that way when we signed him but Hurst clearly doesnt trust him even on the bench nevermind the first team, for what is surely a must win game - speaks volumes.

Unless he's injured of course.
