One thing I noticed yesterday, is how vocal he is. Was dragging the whole back line up with him.


About time someone did.

I thought Saturday he had a really good game but it was very much a defenders performance.  Solid, got in the way of everything, kept it simple and nothing got past him.

I'm more than likely expecting him to be some sort of libero type defender simply because Artell set out his early stall to play out from the back and have players stepping forward with possession.  From his first few games that clearly wasn't his game and it still feels an odd signing in that sense.

But neither Rodgers or Maher are what I would call a traditional defender and going with the current back 3 neither is Mullarkey.  Waterfall has gone so this might be Artell bringing in the solid type now with a view to bringing in better footballers alongside him in the future.   The here and now is that we need to just keep teams out, which Tharme looks to be helping with.  But moving forward we need to have better players alongside him and indeed in front of him.  As good as the defensive performance was, aided by FGR's toothlessness from 30 yards out, we cannot get away with just soaking up pressure against the better sides.  We'll need to be able to hurt them.

Obviously the lad has got talent and has been one of our best January signings in a while but how long is his contract?

I think that like most L2 players, he is limited in what he can do, but what he does he does it well. Our change of formation and tactics suit him and he is thriving atm.


I was there, the day Bradley Wood scored a 35 yarder!

From the black and white striped shirts
To the fish in the sea
You'll hear us singing
Coz we are Grimsby.

You won't hear us crying
But you'll hear us shout
Coz we are the Grimsby
And this is our chant.......... Grimsby! Grimsby! Grimsby!

See Mark Lever, Justin Whittle and Rob Jones. Above L2 as well.  All made a little go a long way. They squeezed every drop out of their careers.

Taken the spot well and deserves the praiseche is receiving.

Nothing flash -- does the easy stuff well and loads of vocals to encourage the others.

Could easily become a huge fan favourite !
