It’s staggering just how bad we are at home.
Luckily for us FGR and Sutton are also shite.

Hahahaha, going down!!!

 

[EnglishRed]

Loads of Notts fans on twitter claiming we've bought the referee again. Nice to see some things never change.

 

[DearneValleyRover]

First time we’ve scored 5 away since 2019, thanks Grimsby

 

[Bottega Don]

Are Grimsby one of the worst L2 non-basket case teams in recent memory?

Most teams that really struggle in this league have terrible owners, Grimsby seem to have great owners and yet are really struggling.

Their side doesn't even look that bad on paper, got some good players in there

One thing that has changed is Paul Mullin, doesn't fall over as much but has lost the ability to control a ball and be clinical.

Harsh decision to disallow that goal. I see Wrexham fans are calling it a clear deliberate handball. Surprise, surprise.

 

[EnglishRed]

Speaking of our old striker rivalry, what’s up with Mullin? I thought he was absolutely god awful today, struggled to control the ball.

He's never really recovered fully after puncturing his lung. Little flashes but not got near his levels of last season. Hopefully with Marriott signed he can have a bit of a rest

 

[dan_wrexhamafc]

Very good, disaplined performance. Pressed at the right times, back off when needed. We were never going to have much ball today, all about what we did without it. Langstaff barely noticeable bar his chance after 30 seconds. Can see why Jones has so many assists, put some great crosses in.

Snap your hand off for a point Tuesday

Not the same player this season. He suffered cracked ribs and a punctured lung in a pre-season friendly which many attribute to his poorer season. His sharpness is just way off compared to last season and he's struggling in physical battles.

 

[Ainsty]

Miles better in the 2nd half by us, completely dominated. Kirk looked very good coming on at half time. Just had s feeling after Harrogate conceded 9 on Tuesday that this would end 0-0. Still not a bad point looking at the league, but still frustrating given we were head and shoulders better, especially 2nd half.

But your weren't better than Belshaw
That late save was brilliant. I'm happy with a point and back in the playoff places.

Strange days indeed.

They must be SWEATING.

Grimsby becoming the new Barnet in terms of yo-yoing into non-league.

 

[YEO YEO YEO]

So Adelakun has found his level then? 3 assists I think I saw, in the rout at Grimsby

 

[クレイグ]

Thought it was a largely terrible game, but like Wilsden said, we should have been 2-0 up at HT. Maybe the ball bobbled on our pudding of a pitch? I'll give Cook the benefit of the doubt. Stubbs in midfield, a centre-back who knees are worse than my nans, was a bit baffling haha. Smith was a real handful until he got into any sort of position to finish. One of those footballers who'd be much better if you cut both his legs off and replaced them with heads. The Sutton winger who came on looked decent and I thought he was a real handful. Outside of those two Sutton looked poor. Special mention for Lee Angol here - diving, cheating, little rat-waffle. Take no comfort or anything if Sutton go down but very happy to see Angol having a poor season. His dive in the box in the first half was shocking.

Thought Oduor was good again. Kav pressed well and had a couple of decent moments. Would have given the man of the match to Gilliead though - he was everywhere.

Onto bogey side Barrow next. Let the fist-pumps commence.

 

[pontoonlew]

I’ve watched us be shit for 25 years now but I’ve never seen a side so easily concede goals. Hurst started it and Artell has ignored it, and both are unforgivable.

I still think we’d come good under Artell, but we’re in a battle now that I’m not sure he can win.

 

[DearneValleyRover]

He’s been the main reason we’ve gone four unbeaten absolutely what we’ve needed

Don’t forget the Twitter posts that’ll be put on here after with the average goals

 

[Indian Dan]

Pile of pish from us. Rudderless, no game plan,too many players seemingly half-arsed, no organisation. That said, MK were very good and were never in any trouble of losing. Bit of back to square one for us.

Really poor.

 

[Master D]

Have the Stockport fans emerged yet?

Have the Stockport fans emerged yet?

Brad Walker with 2 assists and Connor Jenmings with a goal. Ex-reds absolutely ANNIHILATING the favourites.

Angol is absolutely rubbish. At least a level but probably 2 above where he should be. I can’t see anything at all about him that makes anyone think he should be signed never mind the number of league clubs he has. Makes me lose some faith in the manager seeing him picked.

The winger is Duke-McKenna who is absolute class but somehow doesn’t get into the worst team in the EFL. The only possible answer is he needs watching in terms of minutes due to injury problems.

He looked liked he had ability but his personality was substandard for a professional,

 

[AdamStag]

Having looked at it (one of the more technical mansfield fans can post it) flints header at 0-0 in the first half is over the line, unsurprisingly it wasn’t given.

Sounds rather familiar

taking sweets and dinner money from schoolboys like that you ought to be ashamed of yourselves…

 

[WhiteRussian]

It’s like a results generator randomly picks them....it’s crazy.

Have to agree as far as we are concerned.

Not the type of character you want in a relegation scrap.

Duke-McKenna looked like a player who might have gotten you something if he'd been on earlier in my opinion. I know you need battlers when you're down there but he looked to have that little bit of quality that can turn losses into draws for example.

Does artell live in his own world or something?

I'm glad Duke-McKenna didn't start, once he came on in the 2nd half, he was by far your best player on the day.

A spirited performance by your lot, get that first win under Morrison, and you never know, you just might catch the Cod heads.

As for us, we only had 1 central midfield player available today and it showed.

Good performances from our ever reliable duo Halliday and Gillead. Odour had a good game too, and our new keeper Sam Walker impressing again with his 4th successive clean sheet

He won League 2 Manager of the Year you know - he’s just reminded listeners of that…

 

[The_Viking_Magpie]

Why has he refused to move to the Greater Grimsby area? Not fully committed?

 

[LS Bantam]

Crewe fans waiting to talk about Artell.
