We are due a bit of luck somewhere/some time soon.

Hopefully someone at GTFC is bright enough to send a copy of Rhead's admission of simulation to the FA to get Gowling off his ban but we need to kick on now. 9 points from 6 is not the start we wanted and a run of three winnable without winning is not good enough - whatever the circumstances.

Roll on Monday.....

We continue. We play with spirit and verve and I for one am proud. It's far from ideal but we're a bloody good side and I've got faith

Rhead's words "Gowling put his hands around my neck and I went down like a professional, you can't put your hands around someones throat"

He is right of course but the simulation of being in pain and dropping like he had been shot is what got Gowling a red not a warning or yellow.  Gowling also needs to look at himself for reacting the way he did, he cost us the potential to earn all 3 points from pub team Lincoln.

Toto has earned his place after putting in a sterling performance.  Gowling can sit on his rear end for 3 matches then earn his way back into the team.


Supporting the Mighty Mariners for over 30 years, home town club is were the heart and soul is and it's great to be a part of it.

"I dropped to the floor, like a true professional, because I was in ultimate pain and we got the penalty. "

He's as stupid as he looks.

I could see what was going to happen as soon as the ball was cleared. Gowling was silly and he knows it  luckily we have a capable replacement (at centre half) in Toto. I wonder if maybe Doig will be registered just in case the next three games go badly.

As much as I like Gowling, that was a poor decision and it's probably cost us 2 vital points. I really hope now that Pearson and Toto play really well and reform their partnership from last season and take the centre half dilemma of 3 into 2 out of PH's mind.

Similar to a Gareth Bale comment " if there is contact in the box I am allowed to go down" that sad thing is the managers tell the players that and they believe it to be right???

True Professional? Looking at his waistline and his behaviour after the penalty I think not!!
