Just back

Quoted from HertsGTFC

Their full back was possibly their best player for most of the game. Jack's a good lad but just needs to take more care when crossing also I think we would win loads of penalty's if he ran at defenders in the box.  

But he hardly ever runs at his full back and thats the problem, together with his woeful crossing, he freceives the ball shapes up to attack his man, stops lays it back to East who plays long ball and we lose possession. Just do not see what he gives the side but accept others will beg to differ.

Where you there?

I've not said they are anything special, teams in this league aren't special, but they are clearly strong and have some good players for this league. We are 10th, but at this point in the season 10th is only 7 points from the top, is that insurmountable with 30+ games left?

No that 7 points is surmountable but we also have to get more points than 8 other teams who could all go on a winning run-who would have had Lincoln, Dover  and Gateshead above us at this stage in the season.

Seen it before in the league that squad depth really tells after Christmas. Lots of the 'smaller' teams seem to go well at the start then fall away. I only see the title being won by FGR, Tranmere, Cheltenham or Town. Maybe Wrexham an outside bet.

Ask the manager jonny. Not me

Two strong sides that really didn't impress, neither made that many scoring chances. I couldn't give a toss about FGR but I am really concerned that Hurst left it so long to make changes.

Even though we went one nil up the tactics weren't really working, I thought Tomlinson looked really poor and was amazed when he took JPP off before he took Tomlinson off.

Mackreth had probably one of his better games but for me it was still not good enough, far too many times he gets the ball in good positions then ends up turning round and passing back. I would much rather see Marshall start ahead of him.

Hurst must start with his two top goal scorers on Tuesday.

Interesting comments from a FGR fan.

In front of a magnificent, noisy 5,000 crowd, that was a poor game with little football on show. Neither side deserved to win and the game's 2 bright spots were the well taken goals late into the first half.

this Grimsby side is way off the standard of previous years despite the fervour of another big crowd. Disley has little skill around him and ploughs a lonely furrow.

Spot on re our poor midfield
Come on Town!!

Very poetic.......... They are possibly not as good as their fans think they are. Do you think they are jealous of our attendances? Someone needs to remind them what history does for you.

Have to agree about the  id field though absolutely rudderless and has ben since we have been in this league and probs well before then too,

They are hard taskmasters. One of theirs gave their manager 2/10 for yesterday! It's the first time they've gone home from here with a point.

They've done it once before and it got Neil Woods the boot.
