Battling performance full of fight, grit and pride.

We limited a good side, to 1 shot on target, soaked up lots of pressure, and did our jobs to a man.

The back 5 were outstanding, Tharne looks a really good signing, alogside 2 ive been so critical of in Mullarkey and Rodgers.

Obikwu battled and fought for every ball that went up to him and scored the chance that came his way.

Ive seen some appaling refs at Grimsby Town, this man was the worst. He was, from minute 1, horrific. Shame on him and the league


But well done town, a massive massive 3 points, very proud of them tonight

We wondered if Artell could get a tune out of this lot. Tonight he showed he could and has done so for the last 5 games.


You can please some of the forumites some of the time but not all the forumites all of the time

Huge credit must go to ‘Dopey Dave’ for turning this around, we look a completely different team defensively.

Really enjoyed tonight, no good for the heart rate but we’ve limited yet another side to barely having a sniff.

It’s a shame FGR won but that’s another game down, 10 more to go and the way we’re playing I’d imagine we’re going to be absolutely fine.

Great battling performance to a man.
We have gone from a side that can't defend to the best defensive side on the league  
We done to all including the fantastic support tonight.
Oh and the Ref was a buffoon

In his three stints as Grimsby Town manager spanning over 10 years the club was never relegated and he also guided them to three promotions.
Only 14 managers have reached 1,000 matches in charge of a Football League team by 1998 and Buckley is one of them.

We've gone from shipping a goal a minute to conceding 2 in 5 games (one of them being that pen). Big credit to everyone!

Fantastic performance. Shape first half with a high press worked well....midfield worked their socks off against a very tidy MK side....concentration levels tremendous.
Penalty miss the only blot but probably galvanised them for the rest of the game.

Great result. Well done all.

Only one goal conceded from open play in the last four games.

No reason we need fear a trip to Gillingham on Saturday and we must be in with a chance of winning it.

I’ve been one of DAs most ardent critics but tbf he swallowed his pride and ditched his total football fiasco and has found a system that works. All I’ll say for now is I hope he builds a team around this formation next season and doesn’t try to rekindle his inner Pep

I have no words for how bad that ref was- an embarrassment

A team performance to feel proud about- franchise utd looked like a solid proposition as well as being game players

Not left the ground feeling this way for a long time

I’m not sure that’ll happen, he obviously wants to play football long term.

I’ve heard a lot say he tried to do too much too soon, I think it’s a case of the opposite. He tried to get us into an attacking outfit quickly and completely neglected the defensive side (something he admitted himself) we’ve now seen the result of him putting his efforts into making us more solid and it’s worked almost immediately.

I think over the coming months we’ll see a shift into a balance between the two, because I’m not sure digging in every week like this is sustainable long term and questions will quickly start to be asked if we tried to.
