Good point, definitely nothing to fear from them and I don't think either side had a shot on target in a pretty poor game. Still question where the goals are coming from but we should be well organised defensively for sure.

But we did have a shot on target. And scored, but it was as disallowed.

I’d have taken 0:0 before kick off. Sounded a solid performance.  Same points as them. Game in hand. Much less cost.


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.

Quoted from pontoonlew
First half was very poor indeed, Stockport should’ve gone 2-0 up but we rode our luck.

Second half was much better and was pretty entertaining on the whole. The disallowed goal was a joke and had it been Madden scoring at the home end, the ref gives it all day long. Hunt had a good game, as did Coke but the real standouts were McAtee (again) and the much criticised Luke Waterfall who fair play to him, was dominant.

Extremely disappointed in the full-backs, neither look comfortable and Revan, who came in with such good words, doesn’t look ready for men’s football yet, however I guess that’s what he’s here for, but we need more in that position if we’re going to play this formation IMO.

We need a striker urgently, there’s some real good signs in this squad and we need to capitalise on it.

A damn good away point.


Revan created those two chances for them - he was better in the second half. I also thought Hunt looked like a little boy lost in the first half but improved in second and finished the game well.

McAtee - well, am I seeing a Poutonesque feistiness there? Looks to be a cracking player. Seem to threaten a bit more off Lenny than Taylor. Would be great behind a front two that included a poacher that could feed off scraps in the box.

Stockport fans very unhappy with their team. They also commented that we weren't anywhere near as good as Dagenham or we would have beaten them.
Didn't catch any of the game but just reading forums


First half I didn't think either side looked special, last 10 minutes Stockport could have sneeked a couple.

Second half we were much better and maybe should have scored  but saying that so could they. However apart from our disallowed goal, I'm not sure if either side had a shot on target.

For me, both sides will have to be better if either are looking at top spot.

Well the majority of their fans thought both teams were crap and slagging off, players, formations and the manager and there was me thinking it's only Town fans.

https://theyellowboard.boards.net/thread/5333/grimsby-match-thread?page=13

Just one of the many disparaging comments about Town.

Grimsby were utter shite just a team of cloggers who didnt have to work hard to gain their point it was oh so easy for them as we just don't stretch teams or move the ball around well enough or with any intensity

Seems the majority don't think either side will be troubling a promotion/play-off spot.

dont care what they think arry. We’ve got 4 from 6 not conceeded and that’ll do for me

Sidenote, for a man who had no pre season, LJL has had a huge impact on both games so far

I think the ref blew straight away before the ball even entered the net, if so technically the ball wasn't in play.

If we were a "shite bunch of cloggers" as they want to put it how shite must they be for not being able to beat us?

All i will say if ever there was a paul Hurst performance from his first spell here then that was it, and btw that isn't a dig I'm sure people on here understand what i mean.  

We were Away and proved Hard to beat without looking like we will win the match without nicking a goal from a set piece or something.

Like I said not a negative from me apart from the first half wasn't what will be needed to get out of this league but I thought we battled well second half and dug in well. Good point away at a shite bunch of cloggers  

On to Saturday now..

Plenty on their site are saying they were shite and weren't as good as last season.

Cloggers? Interesting the cause they looked nothing more than that too.

Town worked hard and in truth neither side probably did enough to win the match but from the perspective of who a point was better for you’d say us. Another clean sheet too.

A goal disallowed is annoying but what a finish. I think we’ve a player in Mcatee, Revan got better although first half he was almost a liability. Defensively we looked solid again and it was a pleasure to see players get in the way of the ball after the first half of last season…


'the poor and the needy are selfish and greedy'...well done Mozza
