More impressive for us last night I think was our number 25 Mattie Pollock (fish puns already been done to death).
The lad has only recently celebrated his 18th birthday but he's impressed me every time I've seen him play and he was outstanding last night. I reckon we could have another Ryan...
Could be 4 ex-Mariners playing against us tomorrow, so going by the adage that a player always scores against his former side, I'm going for a 5-4 win! :bg:
A list of the 4th Round Qualifying ties.

Another bit of pointless and useless trivia.
Leyton Orient could well field FOUR Ex-Mariners in their team on Saturday.
Often get 1 or 2 but very rarely get four ex-players playing against you.
It's been The Market Tavern for at least a couple of years now I reckon.
Edit. Just done a google search and there was an article in the Grimsby Telegraph dated 4th July 2017 after it had just re-opened.
Yeah, if the boot had been on the other foot and we'd won like that at Field Mill, then that's one of the games that make all this supporting a lower league club nonsense worth it. And glad to hear that you didn't encounter our minority of knuckledraggers on the day.
