The playing conditions were as tricky as they come tonight. Gale force wind, open stadium, heavy bobbly pitch drying in places. Sometimes you have to ignore the standard of football on offer, apart from the goal, and just sit back and admire the players' collective willingness to chase, compete, defend and also the desire to come out on top in a must win game..

Menayese and Hewitt were immense.. again. But all played their part..

We go to an in form team who have won their last four games and beat them on their own pitch.

Well done to all this win gives us hope we can get out the bottom two.

Joint best, by my quick reckoning. Four other times (most memorably the last 5 games of 17/18 ).


We had a run of 7 unbeaten in the league earlier in the 17/18 season (albeit with a cup loss in the middle of it).

I really did not remember us having such a run but you're right.... won 2 and drew 5

Let's hope we can go on and do even better as we fight for our survival

And I thought I'd got away with it Mike!  

That's the trouble with Soccerbase though...all the games get mixed in so it was difficult to pick up those seven undefeated games amongst the B team trophy and FA cup games ( funny how I remember a few of them quite well too )

As I recall that season we did ok until the game with Notts County then the wheels fell off spectacularly once the board thought we were safe and sold our players in the January window without really doing much to cater for the rest of the season

In some ways we have a harder task with these last 10 games now than Jolley had when he came in but you never know.... I know a lot of folk don't like the word momentum but we do have some of sorts right now. Just hope we can keep it going until May. Fingers crossed

I think it would be difficult to criticise anything last night. The tactics were spot on and the players all carried out their jobs properly. Hurst often gets criticised for subs and timings but last night they worked spot on for me.

The pitch was awful, as was the wind. Barrow never set up to win the game and once we scored it scuppered their plans.

Hopefully it’s the much needed confidence boost.

It’s certainly a nicer feeling waking up with a win...

Their commentators called it saying Grimsby are shooting all the time, eventually one is going in.  How right they were, and what a cracking goal it was.  UTM
