Quoted from Les Brechin


Just as I was posting that, there was a bloke on RH making exactly the same point.

He could at least have had 3 or 4 of the players he "rested" on the bench.


They may get home at 1 in the morning. Players that are playing on Saturday may have training on Friday- and a lot have to commute in. Taking them down to sit on the bench isn't exactly great preparation for Chester.

I'm really annoyed, maybe I shouldn't be posting when I'm in this mood but if we do reach the playoffs, I can't see him taking us up. Absolutely ridiculous decision to play a[/b] reserve side [b]tonight. We should've got the three points, one at best, played a weaker side at home against a struggling Chester on Saturday keeping fresher legs for the more difficult game against Halifax the following Tuesday.

Am I mad or does this make sense? I just don't get him!!


I wouldn't call it a reserve side,apart from Walker, All the others in the starting 11 tonight are in the 1st team squad.

A big clue is Woking - 0-3 - top team until the last 2 games in the last 3 days. They did not have the resource to change their team.


Great, they lost at home tonight,with the same team as tuesday. Admittedly, they were playing Cambridge and not Dartford.
I'm really pleased for that tosser Garry Hill..

Like a boy in an orthopaedic shoe, I stand corrected. Maybe I should've said our strongest side...... Unfortunately, I'm not sure that Hurst knows what our strongest side is.


You fill up my senses,

O, Super Black and Whites,

Very good point Salford Mariner - I totally agree - PH i.m.o. has not overlooked this. The last time I saw Grimsby play Chester at home, we lost 2-3, Matt Haywood had a stinker and Alan Buckley was relieved of his duties. Hopefully, I will witness a much happier scenario on Saturday.

I think another point worth making is that with important games against play-off rivals Halifax and Alfreton coming up, we couldn't rest the players for those games and thus they need to be fresh for those games. Tonight is possibly the best game to rest 10 players, because losing it means we haven't lost when others are possibly winning as we would on Saturday, and losing the games against Alfreton/Halifax would mean they have gained 3 points on us.

Basically, although PH can't really admit it, perhaps he's being a bit cute here and deciding which game to change all the players and therefore decide which game he wants to lose. (I appreciate it doesn't guarantee winning the other games, but it would probably give us a fresher team against the better teams, which we will definitely need I think.)
