I remember his horrific debut well but he went on to be a very able and steady player for us.

RIP.

Solid player at a decent level for us.
Came to Grimsby in 1979 - same year as Everton’s defeat at Grimsby - Everton being his favourite club.
Not sure whether he played for us or them or not at all on the night - remember John Bailey at left back.
RIP

He signed for Town in 1984.

Fair enough Les - just trying find out whether he played for us against Everton in 1984 then.
Can identify Batch, Crombie, Wilkinson, Lund, Bonnyman and maybe Nicholl.

This was the team v Everton - Batch, Seagraves, Crombie, Foley, Nicholl, Moore K, Ford, Wilkinson, Lund, Bonnyman, Emson.

Sub was Kev Drinkell who replaced Foley.

Robinson was at the club at the time but didn't play. I think he might have been injured.
