Superb finish!

[HALMA 1983]

Lovely chip

[Keith]

Excellent start!

....... and we're looking for another rather than sitting back

[drretro]

Morning folks! Been looking forward to this morning. Got in late, but just in time for the goal. Nice way to start.

Derek says the aim this year is to try and win every game, now there is a novel idea!

Next you're going to tell me that he plans on doing this by scoring more goals than we concede. WILD!

Revolutionery!!

What's this thing about the balls being cleaned when they go out of play? It looks like sometimes the ball gets picked up for a quick throw, but other times, the ball gets taken away for a wash?

[AndyReifman]

Unrelated but does anyone know when Kits will be restocked in the shop? I want to pick up a home kit but looks like they've only got Large in stock.

We're looking a bit shaky at the back, given them a few chances and that one off the crossbar, but CMG is causing them chaos when we go forward.

[HALMA 1983]

Lucky! Clear your lines

[JTW]

Just a thought. Would the Grimsby commentators say a quick apology to MFC fans in the first couple of minutes to let new ifollowers know this isn’t what they should expect over the rest of the season?

Click on the cog wheel, bottom right corner, and select 'away' commentary to get Quinny.

Apparently, Carabao Cup isn't being carried live outside of the UK.

Cheers Keith. Grimsby commentators actually quite balanced, not nearly as entertaining as Freez though!

[Keith]

Grimsby definitely most threatening in the last ten minutes or so. We're fortunate to still be on top.

[marky No.1]

That was poor

Can't say it hasn't been coming

[Keith]

Stockton getting battered with no protection from the ref. He just got shoved over and grabbed the ball when he fell. Ref gave Grimsby the free kick! If it wasn't a shove in the back, then it was a deliberate handball, therefore yellow card. Ref must have known he was pushed if he didn't book Cole.

[glagys]

So what are new defensive quartet looking like
Seem to have seen a post somewhere that N K-P was past his best and easily caught napping?? Hope the post was wrong,

[tim-sanchez]

Not sure any individual can be singled out, they just look quite shaky. Lots of space being left, missed and scuffed clearances, we're just giving them too many opportunities. Hopefully it's just because they haven't had chance to gel yet.

[Keith]

Slew kicks the ball away at a throw in, gets a yellow card.
Grimsby player kicks the ball away at a throw in, doesn't get a yellow card.

Either both or neither ref!

So what are new defensive quartet looking like

Sixes & sevens a few times, perhaps still getting to know each other. Their goal was definitely coming, and it was luck, not good defending that stopped them scoring earlier.

[al1]

Been caught out down both flanks a few times defensively,but could quite easily be 3-3 at half time,ref is a bit of a homer!

[glagys]

Graham Salisbury ref .??
Seem to recall more bad games he’s reffed than good ones,so that’s us probs out of the cup then
Hope I’m wrong though

[Born again Bill]

Certainly second best at the start of 2nd half

Grimsby lad gets a shove in the back, falls over and grabs the ball, Grimsby free kick.
Same happened to Cole in the first half, Grimsby free kick for handball.

Salisbury's only consistency is that if it is a 50-50, then it results in a Grimsby free kick 100% of the time.

[Keith]

Slew off for Kenyon. Hopefully tighten things up a bit because we're second best at the moment.
