4 - 1 - 4 - 1 again like against  crewe?

Morris in front of the back four

It’s  hot

4 - 3 - 3 according to JT, so we'll have to see

Pleased for Wearne, thought he made a big impact last week and had a good game against Crewe

First time I’ve seen Green in the flesh.

You’d cross the street to avoid him.

Looks like a baddie from Die Hard…but one that would have killed McClane in the first 10 mins. Garotted with a sock tie.

Ex-Serbian paramilitary.

In Hurst we trust, but why would you change a 4-0 winning side outside of a forced injury?

Roch player cleared their own tap in off Town goal line. 0-0 still somehow.

Both these wingbacks for Rochdale are rappid

Now we clear one off our own goal line. Rocking a bit. Cut through too easily.

Sounds like we're under the cosh.

We aren't in this game at all at the moment.

How we are not 3 nil down already is pure luck
Ww need to get a grip of their wingers, especially hodo
C'mon Town

The shop scores for York and Dallas gets another for Solihull

Anyone got the link for radio commentary? I can never find it.

We need tk stop being so narrow, Glennon and Efette need to pick up Rochdales wingbacks so Wearne and Clifton can help Taylor put pressure on their backc3 so they can't just ping the ball about at will

Goal saving tackle from Efete. Getting destroyed here.

Comedy dive from Clifton.

We've played games like this and did everything but win so this could be one for Rochdale and we win. Optimistic and positive for a Town win.

I’m useless finding it. Can anyone post a link to BBC please?

Quoted from DB

Thats another sitter Rochdale missed there. Got to hand it to Rochdale they are playing some beautiful football  as they bypass us on each attack

Rochdale are carving us open with ease. Could have been 3/4 up by now.

Quoted from Happy_Mariner

I’m useless finding it. Can anyone post a link to BBC please?

There isn't one anymore now we're in the football league. You've got to go the Grimsby Town website and pay for MarinersTV to get commentary now

I don’t think Glennon is enjoying the sun or the fact Seriki is virtually playing as a right winger.

Doig’s just told Clifton and Wearne to sit deeper until half time.

Thank goodness for the drinks break It will give Huraty time to sort them out.

No press. Presumambly heat doesn’t help.

Quoted from Happy_Mariner

I’m useless finding it. Can anyone post a link to BBC please?

Not on line or FM. The only BBC is DAB radio.

Waterfall goal saving tackle now. Should be 4 or 5 nil.

Ok, thanks for letting me know. 👍

Dont know if this will work but just googled freeview channels
https://www.freeview.co.uk/corporate/platform-management/bbc-local-radio-services

Feels like we are going to have to go 1-0 down before we turn up.
I understand the heat isn’t helping our normal game but we are now in a position to use 5 subs

Rochdale should’ve had a pen there. Holohan dragged their player down after ball watching. We’re playing so poorly we’re going to win 1-0.

That's dumb from Harry getting a booking there. Has to be the poorest 30 minutes of football since we were relegated, been cut open at will

Fans are in good voice.  UTM

Well if Rochdale could shoot the game would be over already

Loving listening to the fans. Not so much the game ATM! But I have faith in PH and the team.

Wish the commentary didn't keep flitting between this game, interviews, and Tuesday nights game. Bit naff for a paid service. Is that happening for anyone else or just me?

Thanks, will do.

Morris. Bar. 25 yard scorcher. 0-0.

Oh that shot from Morris!

Bit of a rough first half. No idea how Rochdale didn't score when they had us under the cosh for the majority of the half.

We’ve been very poor. Should be losing

Cliftons been dreadful

Ref and linesman on our fans side have not got a clue

Lucky to be going in at 0-0 is the best way to discribe that half. We've adjusted a bit better since the water break, but those Wingbacks are still a real threat, thatnk god Rochdale forgot their shooting boots.

Improved towards the end of half

Love Clifton to bits and usually defend him on here but…if he’s not providing energy or cover for Glennon, there’s little point in him being on the pitch.

Seriki doesn’t just have Glennon on toast, the toast is burnt and Glennon’s trying to fish him out of the toaster with a bread knife. Whilst the toaster’s on.

Surely have to match their 3-5-2. The midfield is non-existent. Taylor looks the 75% fit that he probably is. Wearne looks lightweight and defensively weak.

Other than that…loving it.

I haven't heard much of Smith. Is he having a good game or just not in it? Can anybody at the match say?

Just heard Scunny 3-0 down

Last 15 minutes of the half much better. Would not be surprised to see Glennon replaced by Amos. We've not got to grips with their wing backs on either side but he's way off today, defensively and in possession. Clifton and Wearne not great either but no one on their game today to be fair

Think we are lucky so far, refs a bit of a homer but we've had much worse. Clifton needs replacing, struggling and a red card waiting to happen. Lets hope Hursty sorts it out in the dressing room

Scunny 3-0 down at Maidenhead though. Perspective  ;D

Quoted from DB

Just heard Scunny 3-0 down

Smith’s spent most of the first half calling for non-existent offsides. Their player has been onside every time - I’m right in line with it.

News from Spotland


The crossbar has just stopped shaking after bryn Morris’ thunderbolt

Put it this way I'd be surprised if forest's first team dominated us as much as rochdale just have. How we are level still I don't know. Has to change it.

Was planning to go to Maidenhead today to witness the demise of the Iron but got stuck in traffic.
3-0 down at half time against Maidenhead - welcome to the national league

When you're down the only way is up. We're the comeback kids so a win is on the cards................................I hope.

He won't change with us coming in to the game last 15 unless they are suffering because of the weather.

Proper dive from Clifton there. Good first minute. Come on Town!

Thought that was in!

Much better start to second half.

In everyone’s defence. It is bl00dy hot. Think their CB has just gone off with heat stroke.

Chance! Clifton hits hard but straight at the keeper

We seem to be having a better half so far, hopefully a goal will come.

Fair play to Clifton, Wearne, Glennon - much better second half from all 3 of them. Wearne even had a nibble at Odoh

Shocking first half Rochdale 61 per cent possession

Looping crosses way too close to the keeper. Whip em in!!

You’d think changes were imminent due to the heat. Kiernan for Taylor maybe? JMD for Clifton? They’ve got two defenders on yellow cards.

Amos coming on + Kiernan

I'd be getting some more pace up top now, its not been Taylors day today and Cliftons on a yellow

Odoh’s a diving prïck

Voices of the Mariners fans is fantastic. Nobody can say that Town are without support.

Am sure there was a certain ex custodian that did

Town on top here. Would take a clean sheet and point after that first half though.

1 goal is going to be enough for the win today. Whos going to get it I don't know. Come on Town

Efete and now Clifton should have done better with headed chances. Good crosses. Much better second half, Glennon been a different player

Quoted from sonofmadeleymariner

TOWN, that's who.

Did anybody hear the number of Town fans?

I was just thinking waterfall woud nick it in the last minute .  and Wooosh  

Get in! UTM!

Smash and grab!

HMP Waterfall you beautiful beautiful man!

OHHHHHH YEAH BABY UTFM

It’s 5pm. Blow up

Will miss the classifieds if they existed

We never ever stop going!

WINNERS  , the comeback kids do it again. Going up.

Funny, funny old game. Should have been dead and buried inside first 30 mins.

Get in, mugged em

Well.... Not being at the game I'll take that   ;D must have been tough for the town fans today but massive well done for backing the team throughout no matter what.

You deserved that.

UTM.

The Amos/Glennon combo deal is looking like a real option!

Somehow survived the first half thanks to some poor finishing by Rochdale. Second half came back into it and the captain leads by example again to nick all 3 points away. Ref gave them every opportunity for an equaliser and the finishing was still poor, must have been like 10 minutes of injury time.

Brilliant Town well done (groupwave)(groupwave)

Brill 😀😀😀😀😀😀

Get in 👊

Decent game I thought rochdale looked quite good to be fair but we did well too and waterfall is just unstoppable at set peices

Lovely Jubbly

Fantastic by players, management and fans.
No stopping the Town train UTM

The only away in League 2 today - Town have travelled well on a very hot day
UTM 😀😀😀😀

The result was  never ìn doubt we  never give up. ;D

Quoted from Teestogreen

The only away win in League 2 today - Town have travelled well on a very hot day
UTM 😀😀😀😀

There are times when you think it's not our day. Their 2 racing snakes running like cheetahs down each wing, taking us apart. We're Grimsby though, a team with bottle. The heat must have been exhausting but I seem to remember we have a never give up attitude.
A lot stronger 2nd half, which we needed due to their players not being able to hit a barn door.  Probably sweating and hoping for the final whistle but it's Grimsby and there's minutes left, we don't give up. We never give up, perseverance prevailed and once again our fans went wild. What utter joy, so now for a rest. OH, game on Tuesday, we go again.
UTM

I have the away attendance and I am trying to confirm the match attendance. I do have a figure for this but at the moment BBC, Sky, GT. Rochdale & Town twitter and local Rochdale newspapers are not showing it.

Has anybody got a figure for the full match attendance and source ( if possible)

They had 2010 I think, plus our 1249.

Correct number was 2101 of them and 1249 off us.

Quoted from oochiad

Correct number was 2101 of them and 1249 off us.

Thank you, conforms the number I thought I heard of 3350
