What Hurst did at Shrewsbury gives cause for optimism though. When Leeds trainer Les Cocker was once told Norman Hunter had broken a leg, he asked: “Whose is it?”

Put it this way, I won't be disappointed if we finished in the top half again, provided we're a little bit closer to the playoffs.

Grimsby and proud!

I hope we win the league. More than anything, I’d like to see us develop a team that has a way of playing, particularly at home, and to see us impose ourselves on other teams rather than the other way round.

However, I won’t be moaning a bucketload, calling it a disgrace or other such guff if we aren’t quite able to achieve that but do build on our placing this season. Nobody is entitled to success, and every league seems to become more and more competitive each season. I’m grateful that we are an EFL club under superb owners and never want to go back to the NL.

I have seen nothing that says we can progress any further at this time, but a period of stability as we build to make a challenge in the following season.

I see what you mean but a positive recruitment at the end of this season could change everything. PH will have learnt a lot this season about what is required to compete and get out of this league. We have a much better coaching setup and also a head of recruitment who will have had time to explore what we need and who is realistically available. The Future is Black & White.
