We're going to need 4 centre halves. We've got 2, one is too young and one is probably on his way out. So we've got to get a balanced side. Will Pearson play week in week out - probably not, but will he be really useful as part of a squad, almost certainly.

This isn't a marquee signings, it's just another piece of the jigsaw.

This is Grimsby, we don't make marquee signings. More one man tent....

If they are the best side in the NL, then why are they still in it?  Personally I think there is far too much sentimentality in this thread instead of looking at this 'alleged' signing.  If it was a 32 year old centre half that had never played for us, and only played 15 games last season, plus wasn't even named in the squad for the better part of the first half of the season, would we all be wetting our pants at this rumoured signing, nope, I don't think so.  Also, good character doesn't win football matches.



Hurst may be many things but sentimental isn’t one of them. If he re-signs a player then it is because it is a short cut to getting what he wants. Like I said before he is building a unit, not a National League All Stars XI .

Pearson is a known quality, and someone who knows the NL and the big plus is that he does not need to be told what to do. He is already on the PH wavelength. Character does matter, on and off the field, if you are trying to build a squad that plays for each other.

I hope we see signings that stir the blood a bit more but this is exactly what I would expect from Hurst.

Would that indicate you’re actually praising Hurst for this one Ron?
