He has nothing to apologise for.
Massive player in this club for the rest of this season

Played all of his career at this level and lower but what he lacks in natural ability he more than makes up for big hearted commitment. Probably the epitomy of the best of the second Paul Hurst era.

I quite like him. He has his faults but at least he has a bit of pride and commitment. He would certainly be in my midfield ahead of Green, Clifton and Andrews.
In my opinion, a decent lower League 2 or a good top 7 National League player. We might need him next season if the unthinkable happens.

Very pleased to see him in the squad yesterday and if we have and chance of staying up it’ll be with Gav playing. Next best pro to Rose.

I also thought that about Gav and the unthinkable, but thinking the unthinkable brings me out in a cold sweat and panic so I have to revert to distraction techniques - picking up the bass and playing along to some reggae is the go to, I find Bob Marley comforting…

We need characters and leaders in this squad, and Gav is certainly one of them. He’s got his flaws, so have most players in this league, but I feel like he gets it and more importantly, he’s got a goal contribution in him. Similar reasons I wanted us to keep Luke Waterfall until the end of the season. I look through our squad and there’s not many I’d want in the trenches next to me.


"Falls to Arnold... Arnold! That's it! Thats it! He's sealed it! Grimsby Town are back in the football league!!! Just a minute to go and Nathan Arnold makes it 3-1! Look at the scenes behind the goal! Look at the relief! The agony is finally over!!!"

It really is the unthinkable. I have recently had reoccurring nightmares of watching us lose in a glorified bus stop at Tamworth.
I used to find Bob Marley comforting, but unfortunately due to drug testing at work I can no longer indulge !

I await his apology for dreadful basic arithmetic!

Serious note though, I think he's this seasons Clifton. Even if he doesn't have the best of games, we look better with him on the pitch.

For sure he's got flaws in his game but consistently proved to be our best midfielder over the course of this season. Artell's continued decision to not play him is a huge error in my opinion.

Unneeded but you have to respect it.
I think Gav is a steady league 2 player and deserves more game time

Why shouldn't he apologise?  It was an absolute sitter. Anything happens at the other end, we get on the players backs.  We know what he's made of.  Accept his apology and move on.
