So that's about half the squad. It looks like a complete rebuid as we need a new keeper, back four and and engine room.



How motivated will these lads currently be DB if they know their future sits away from the club?

I think a complete rebuild was obvious after the dust settled and we realised that Hurst's summer recruitment was poor.

I agree until the end of season then sack them both with woods aswell.  They are part of the problem the entire footballing side of the club is a shambles players and staff.  


Woods .Really have you seen how well our youth teams are doing

His job is to find and develop  players for the first team not supplying players for Grimsby boro and Clee town. I don’t think you understand his role

I think we need to start playing 3 at the back, 2 wing backs, with Hunt and Thompson in midfield.

Rose Vernam and Arthur as the front three

This might stem the flow of goals…

I would go 3 at the back, Glennon one wing back and Clifton on the right, with Thompson and another defensive midfielders and hunt further forward, vernam and rose up front as a pair.

Might stop us conceding so many whilst we still have enough to get the odd goal.

We could play nine at the back, 7 or 8 of them either don’t know how to defend or are actively refusing to do it effectively.


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!
