He was very good for us on loan in 2015 playing alongside Lenell John Lewis, scored with quite a few lovely finishes. Bossed the playoffs too until Ross Joyce reffed us out of promotion in the final. I recall him being absolutely shite in the air for someone 6ft5 though, so don't expect him to...
Paying £500k for Palmer is madness, but not as insane as handing a 3 and a half year contract to a 30 year old with an alright but not exactly amazing goalscoring record.
I'd Keegan style love it if we got them in the playoffs and shithoused them out with a dodgy 1-0 win. This is of course wishful thinking as we're probably going to finish about 15th.
Unless Cardwell has improved significantly since he was with us he's an underwhelming signing. Just offers nothing at all, isn't a great finisher or particularly pacy, and his hold up play is average at best. His one league goal for us (in 37 appearances) was a scuffed tap in from 2 yards, and...
Correct, he's absolute junk. Can't defend, and doesn't have a clue what to do on the rare occasions he ventures past the halfway line. Which isn't really helpful when our midfield has no creativity in it and we need our full-backs to overlap to create some space for the wingers.
Thought both of...
Really annoyed me this - 3 minutes of stoppage time left and we're fannying about celebrating an equaliser in a game we've dominated. Should have been a picking the ball out of the net and running back to the centre circle with it job.
That aside, good performance and result for a midtable...
We're a 1 man team. Been absolutely useless since McAtee's been out with injuries and suspensions. There's nobody in the squad other than him who can produce a consistent end product. Bell's shown a few flashes since signing but Hurst hasn't been playing him much.
I wouldn't get too worried yet. They were nothing special today against us, an utterly shite inept team massively out of form. If you splurge loads of cash in January you've got a decent chance of reeling them in, especially if Tshimanga gets injured or sold.
This idea that going to blundell park is akin to trying to cross the Berlin wall or visit the Gaza strip is utter nonsense. Unless you're looking for fights and arguments there's nothing to worry about. I've taken the train to cleethorpes countless times with away supporters and if you just...
Hurst has to go, recruited a paper thin squad which falls apart as soon as one or two key players get injured or suspended. Uninspired like for like subs like bringing on the abject LJL to run around to no effect for yet another match about 5 minutes before Tshimanga finally turned up to score a...
You're welcome to arrive in Cleethorpes whenever you like. Absolute nonsense from the police that they think they can tell football supporters when they're allowed to turn up in another town. You should expect them to have both Grimsby Town and Cleethorpes stations surrounded though, so come...
