I'd actually prefer these highlights without any commentary.

Much prefer hearing the roar of the crowd when we score.

Quoted from Ipswin
Best football I've seen from Town for years


For once Swin I am in total agreement with you and as I said on Saturday in the just back comments it’s the first time I can recall a second half where it was basically wave after wave of town attacking play and looking dangerous for much of that time.

A thoroughly enjoyable game in which Barnet also played some good football in the latter part of the first half and showed they had some more than decent forwards.

One thing that I haven't seen mentioned much was the quality of the delivery from Crookes to put it on a plate for McAtee's miss in the first half, super pass across the box

TURN THE SOUND OFF THEN  


If the football is bad you can always watch the gulls.

Does anyone know if there is some contractual reason why the YouTube channel can't put the full match online as well as the highlights?  Some of us who can't get to games ( because, for example, like me we live in different countries ) might enjoy watching the whole thing. It's difficult to get a real feel for the team and its individual players and their strengths and weaknesses from a few minutes of edited highlights, welcome as those are. After getting used to watching games live for the last few years, I'm still getting used to just commentary and brief highlights two days later.

But then he wouldn’t be able to hear the roar of the crowd is what he said!

It's the newly excited John Tondeur at fault !!

Finally got something good to shout at without Alan Buckley lacing into the players !

I love the commentary. It's biased commentary, of course, insomuch that they want Grimsby to win, but John always calls things as he sees it, and if the opposition score a great goal or deserve to win, he'll say so.

For me, it strikes the right balance. Sees it how we see it, occasionally lets out the odd comical frustration ("no marking!') but adds something to the occasion.

And I disagree that he talked over the roar. When Hunt scored the winner there was a good 7-8 seconds of silence behind the mic when you could hear the whole ground celebrating.

The club always used to put out 10+ mins of match highlights each game when we were last in non-league. I really disliked the EFL edits for iFollow, with commentary added on afterwards.

Was speaking to a german friend whos a st pauli fan whos started following grimsby coz of how much i rattle on and she thinks its great that our highlights come with our own commentator, and was amazed at how long hes been around, ive always took it for granted really but guess it could be quite unique do many other clubs have the same?

Yeah, I too used to find that quite jarring. The commentary would be added on as if it were ‘live’, but there’d be little giveaways that it wasn’t.

Ah well, I suppose that’s another little benefit add I can thank Uncle John for!
