Sunning myself just outside Lisbon in Portugal. But will be listening online. Here's to kick starting the season (again)' against what is tricky opposition tonight. UTM.

I feel a bit more positive now I know you're nowhere near Blundell Park  ;)

Quoted from Rodley Mariner

You're dead right. Two games, two defeats this season. I'm a jinx! The sacrifices I make for this club, taking myself well away from my beloved Blundell Park.

Neilson in for Colbeck, Dizza on the bench, otherwise unchanged team.

Just got my tickets for the game, i swore after the Braintree game i would not be rushing back to Blundell Park but here i am, lets hope for a better performance tonight.

C,Mon Town....PLEASE.

LJL gets a start again, how long til Hursts blind optimism stops for intercourse sake.

13 dartford fans!

Astonishing that LJL should start with no place for Hearn, again. At home.

Isnt it hearn vs hannah and cook vs ljl if ph insists on a target man

Quoted from Meza

Well the argument between Cook & LJL isn't even worth having. Both do the same job, one without goals and one with goals. It's an absolute no brainer.

I give up!

PISH

Just home from our little trip away: switched on Humberside and we let a goal in, welcome home!

Personally LJL puts himself about but I would pick Cookie.   Unfortunately LJL preseason form has given him the nod.  As for Hearn im absolutely gobsmacked I understand you have to earn your place in the team and I don't see how things go in training but him and hannah are the closest we have to a 20 goal season man.  Someyhing definitely doesnt add up.

Grimsby and Wrexham suffering from playoff heartbreak.  I cant see PH lasting long if we lose this and our next home game.  Time will tell.

GET IN (groupwave1)

yay. come on town

Hazzah!

Who scored yaay I take it back lol

Guess from the sig meza!

GET IN 2-1 (groupwave1)(groupwave1)

Bbc says paddy scored

Paddy scored the 1st Town goal and Pearson scored the 2nd.

Jeee someone is making eat my words bring it on I say

Now the sods have taken the lead, coming back well by the sound of it!

3-1 THE SHOP (groupwave1)(groupwave1)(groupwave1)

Lenell John Lewis has scored a pissing goal!

3 Bloody 1

Quoted from Marinerz93

Paddy scored the 1st Town goal and Pearson scored the 2nd.

Paddy assist

Flipping Nora!

Shop scored!

yay the shop

Fook me I ought to come out with more negative comments cmon town lets get our season started keep at em give the fans something to sing about.

In the words of mike bassett England manager were playing 4 4 pishing 2

Quoted from pontoonlew

Not remotely true, LJL holds the ball up a lot better than Cook and wins a lot more in the air.

Not too sure how accurate these bbc stats are but 16 shots 10 on target to there 4 - 2.

crap

Crumbs!

I dont like these quick freekicks I think it gives an unfair advantage if a player whispers to the ref can I take it how the hell are the opposition meant to know when the ref is ready.  Not fair.  I suppose they should get organised quicker.

OK, 5-2 I'll take.

Very nice. A seven goal better result than a week ago.

Never saw that coming I wasnt even sure we were due to thump someone

I think we should stick with 4-4-2 if the results turn out like this

Did we really score from 3 corners?

well... 5 - 2 is sweet... really didnt expect it.... but well done town... what was the attendance ???

Excellent result against a rubbish team. No decent teams in this league and we may well be one of the 6 least rubbish again.

You sound disappointed by him scoring.

He played really well and was a lot of peoples MOM.

No it was more of a shock  ;D

Always like to see a Grimsby player do well but will continue to maintain Cookie & Hearn shouldn't be on the bench. Happy with tonight, wierdly still sounded like there were holes in it but 4-4-2 clearly works.

Yeah, there were a few holes and we could and maybe should have been 2 down before we scored. Their No8 was very good and played a cracking ball inside the full back for their forward to score a good finish. They then had another good chance but the ball was hit straight at Macca to save.

Once we got a couple of goals though, the confidence started running through the team. Their second was a joke, so they never really threatened us too much.

winner against Braintree too.....Give him a break.

The Shop was excellent tonight and his all round game is better than Cook's. With Lenny alongside them Hannah and Hearn will score a lot of goals.

Agreed though I would bet that Cook would have scored from our many corner kicks-----he always does :)

After all the negative comments, including a number from myself, I just wanted to comment on the apparent team spirit particularly after the Halifax result. It was noticeable just before kick off, repeated just before the second half, that Hearn in particular and all the other subs went round fist pumping and embracing colleagues wishing them well.

I think a number of us sensed this spirit was not there during pre season and in that first home game v Aldershot but it looked pretty evident last night and was possibly a positive factor in an enjoyable performance

Possibly due to Scott leaving?

Are you saying play all 3 together? If so how would you accommodate them 433 with one either side of Lenny or 442 with one as a winger?

I'm a big fan of Neilson so personally I'd have only one of the two starting.
