Yoboah instead of Hurst is madness, he's not pulling up a trees and he's not our player, seems like gm is winding down Kyle's spell with the club?

I’d have Hurst over the loanee any day. Is he injured?

Late change for Rovers.

Joseph Olowu injured in the warm-up so George Broadbent comes into the starting XI. Bailey to go centre-half, Emmanuel comes into the squad on the bench

Sterry did well there.

You have to call this a good start.

The Grimsby manager compared their defence to that of AC Milan's late 80's/early 90's vintage after their last game.

So 0-2 down at home within the first 10 minutes of their next match was almost inevitable.

I’ll have to say ‘Not a good start’ on here every week.
Title: Re: GTFC V TLOD
Post by: ncRover on October 05, 2024, 12:48:05 pm
That last minute change hasn’t caused any harm! Would love for Broadbent to kick on, he’s underrated I think.

To be fair the Grimsby defence did look like a group of 50 year olds for our second goal.

Can anyone at the game say how we are doing? BBC stats, as well as the scoreline, suggest quite well!

Couldn’t be better first half. Kelly having a really good game.

More info from their forum re the red card:

“Passed the ball directly to their winger for the goal then went screaming his head off at the ref about a non existent foul which got him booked. As he's got about three brain cells he didn't see this as an opportunity to shut up and continued gobbing off and the ref rightly gave him a second booking in the space of about ten seconds. One of the stupidest things I've ever seen on a football pitch and he's let his entire team down.”

Post by: jmt23 on October 05, 2024, 01:59:13 pm
This is frustrating, Grimsby are looking the better team in this half, and we have just stepped off the gas. I understand we may just be taking our time and trying to take it steady but Grimsby should have scored one already, dangerous game to play.

Great performance from him (and I thought he looked very good in his cameo on Tuesday) but the feedback from fans of his former clubs has always been about his ability to do it consistently. I wouldn’t say that today answers any question marks anyone may have over him - he always has this in his locker.
