Okay, in the cold light of day, I am still furious. McKeown is an issue at the moment, but what about the rest of the team yesterday? Very few of the players come out of it with any credit so let's not scapegoat the keeper.

it cant get worse can it?!?
Very close to gifting them two goals today, the one he did and the dallying on the ball which ricocheted off their striker...he has cost us more points this season so far than he has earned us.
Questions are..
do we have a viable alternative right now?
Should we get one?  


Again , I'm  feeling better , however had to rely on radio . I don't know if it was worse listening to it or watching it .

It's been an on going problem with McKeown  ,  the friend I used to watch with was, as I have said before , was an ex Derby County keeper in the late 60 ' s  . His comments still ring in my ears , if Wynne could see the faults over a couple of games I'm very sure others could too .
It's not that he's a bad keeper , he's just gone stale . Should we get someone in ? Should we have GOT someone in . Hindsight is a wonderful thing , but too late afterwards.

Morning BP , Are we as fans putting too much pressure on the team ? The chopping and changing of the squad put pressure on those picked , those not pick must be frustrated . We don't know what the team talks are like but listening to PH on the radio I don't think they would be very motivational  .

I really don't think the fans can be blamed at all. Our fans have been absolutely incredible IMO. Let's be honest, there is pressure playing for Grimsby in this league and it must weigh heavily on the players shoulders. But in general, we are very supportive, travel in huge numbers and get behind the players. Anyone who signs for Town knows the expectations. They shouldn't need PH motivating them to give their all, I've no idea what he is like behind closed doors but I suspect one or two of us would be surprised. I don't know what's gone so wrong so early. But I don't think it is too early for panic stations either. I am panicking and you should too!!

The fans have stuck with it but a noticeable change yesterday AFTER the game even from some of our more balanced supporters.The feeling is that of massive disappointment and given the relative easy looking fixtures so far is there any wonder? My biggest fear with PH in charge is the team being motivated from a poor start he seldom seems capable of getting the team to come from behind and win. I hope they have a meeting today and PH should be asked to answer for the poor start if the board don't agree with him or feel he has had enough then lets give someone else a chance it cant be any worse.

Buckley was sacked on the 15th September 2008 the last time. You maybe thinking about his 2nd spell in charge though when he was sacked after only 2 games.
