Kiddy match thread??

Have they announced the teams yet??

Same starting as last week according to JT

Ian Miller on the bench replacing Simon Ford

Macca, Wood, Pond, Pearson, Thomas, Colebeck, Disley, Niven, Artus, Elding, Cook. Subs- Miller, Thanoj, Pearson, Southwell, Hatton.

The OS is suggesting that Greg Pearson is on the bench in place of Soares. It is the OS though so god knows how accurate that is.

And the BBC are suggesting that Hearn is on the bench ffs - http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/19528032

Correct bench
Grimsby subs: Hatton, Miller, Greg Pearson, Southwell, Thanoj

C,mon Town..

where is Soares :s ..... do like him and feel he easy earnt it in pre-season.. not even on bench

come on town!!!! vodka at 3 pm .. woops

Town Fans are in fine voice today..

Town Fans are in fine voice today..

Is there many there ????

Anyone got a link ???

Nuneaton 1-0 up at Macclesfield .... Dartford up at Hereford.  lol

Let the freaky cOnference score lines begin...

Referee sounds like another useless gimp

Give the refs some credit in this league...so far this season they've all been excrement.

Estimated 250 to 300 Town fans mate - This bloody ref sounds incompetent.

Can't knock them for inconsistency i guess

Niven sounds like he is absolutely everywhere! keep it up town! Fans sound brilliant!

Quoted from springstomind

Nuneaton 2-0 up at Macclesfield lmao!

This league frightens me....

C, Mon Town lets get a goal..

375 Town fans apparently, Not a bad turnout.

Elding misses his customary sitter

Thats another golden chance by Elding gone.

Hmm really like Elding and he is composed on ball and hold up play is good, but why does he panic and always miss sitters? i only recall most his goals being sitters of close range headers too. Really hope Cook and get off the mark soon.

Nearly a goal by kiddy there.

Quoted from Chrisblor

Elding misses his customary sitter

I literally see this written in every match day thread. How can a decent striker miss SO many chances?!

Half time 0.0 - Lets hope Town can take there chances 2nd half.

Quoted from pontoonlew

I literally see this written in every match day thread. How can a decent striker miss SO many chances?!

I think the common argument from the managers and fans is that " well at least he is always in the position and space to miss them" ... he clearly always shows a strikers instinct to be in the right place at the right time .. he just needs composure.

let's stuff these dirty illegitimates. that sounds as though they tactically went for Wood to injure him as this referee has no bollox.

ffs Colbeck and Cook

useless

Another sitter missed.. FFS

FFS

I'm sorry, well no I'm not, but how shite has Cook been this season for us?! I thought he was going to be our best signing

FFS!!!! how many chances can you miss .. cook placing it wide in pretty much an open goal. You're at 6 yards .. put your flipping foot through it. I hope they don;t make us pay for this.

Quoted from Fishfinger

I'm sorry, well no I'm not, but how shite has Cook been this season for us?! I thought he was going to be our best signing

Agree mate hope he comes good.

Quoted from Chrisblor

ffs Colbeck and Cook

useless

I disagree. Colbeck has had numerous assists, won pentalty and scored one this season, not to mention good wing play. Cook however has been absolutely terrible and does not deserve his position in the team. Being able to hold a ball up is not enough.. i do that every sunday.

southwell for Cook and Thanoj for Artus.

Coulson grabs another for york.. on fire lol

This ref must be taking a back hander, These refs seem to have something against the mariners.

Thanoj and Southwell please!

get G.Pearson on i think, Cooky off.

Greg Pearson coming on for Town...

'Touch wood'... he has scored quite alot of goals coming on as a sub!  Come on Greg!!!

How often do we hear "poor one, sliced it wide, he miss hits it, nobody there"

Not all doom and gloom..... were once again solid and keepeer shape and hard to beat and we've created numerous chances to put the game to bed. Just not good enough up front today.

C,Mon Town please..

Why play the corners short -.-

Quoted from 1739

Why play the corners short -.-

It is baffling why they do - Get the bloody ball in the box with a Town head on it.

Glad I stayed at home for this one

Fooking Lincoln!! haha sounds like a decent game down at the 12th Imp of Lincolnshire Co op Sincil I love cheese Bank stadium.

A Points not good enough against these !

Oh FFS! Colbeck hits the bar......!!!      

Cue the boring posts about a point not being good enough away blah blah...

FS, so unlucky

I know people will say any point away from home is good but we really need to beat these excrement teams if we want any chance of getting promoted this season.

Quoted from aldi_01

Cue the boring posts about a point not being good enough away blah blah...

Well it's not in the context of this game given that we've missed about 5 sitters and had comfortably the better chances of the two teams.

2 against the bar, if they go in it's a classic smash and grab, everyone's happy. If not it's the end of the world

Kiddy aren't excrement though. They've had a bad start but I expect them to finish comfortably in the top half at least.

Quoted from aldi_01

Kiddy aren't excrement though. They've had a bad start but I expect them to finish comfortably in the top half at least.

Exactly this.....

At least we stay unbeaten and our defence is very strong, We have to take our chances though, We are missing Hearn which is obvious, A draw is not the end of the world, It is a clean sheet and a point away from home.

Terrible Town loan signing Arnaud Mendy salvages a point for Macclesfield at Nuneaton with an injury time equaliser.

Quoted from blasty

Exactly this.....

They're currently on track to finish the season with 20 points. They're excrement and with the form they are in at the moment we should be beating them.

Quoted from aldi_01

Kiddy aren't excrement though. They've had a bad start but I expect them to finish comfortably in the top half at least.

Well done .. i keep seeing ridiculous comments and you keep replying with decent comments.

As you've said Kidderminster are a half decent side, we're away and had easily the better chances .. did hit the bar twice and had an ansolutely abysmal referee to contend with. Rob Scott said earlier this week on the OS " If we want to do well we have to keep drawing or winning away and winnign at home.

We are clearyl difficult to beat and even break down. Unbeaten in 7 now is it? really not bad at all .

Frustrating with the chances we had, we're still lacking a bit up front but not the end of the world. Will be very surprised if Kiddy are anywhere near the bottom of the table by the end of the season.

Clean sheet, could of won it, but we didn't, lifes a biatch, and then you marry one.

Bring on Luton!

Jevons, Connell, Sam Hird, Coulson and Lester all score... lol

Yes 0-0, I'm happy with that, unbeaten now in 7 games another clean sheet and still 3 points of the play-offs, bring on the Luton!

Shame we couldn't win but hey 2 tough home games comming up should be interesting, doubt we'll loose any of them to be honest, a win and another draw I reckon. UP THE MARINERS!

Have no doubts there will be alot of defeatists on here, so think I'll stay off for a while so I don't get dragged down with with the negetive folk.

Scott needs to get a striker in on loan , that's obvious now . G pearsons struggling with niggling injury . Cook is struggling to settle and elding costs us every game with his missed sitter .
Its clear weve got the defence sorted but if we can't convert the chances we get well be mid table

Forest Green, Luton, Hereford and Macclesfield all drop points. 0-0 at Kidderminster means we haven't dropped much if any ground.

Kiddy are bottom . We should've beat them . No excuses

Yer exactly. Not a bad afternoon at all. Unbeaten in 7

good point! clean sheet again! well done gtfc, if we can draw or win away and win at home we wont be to far away.well done town now bring on luton friday UTMM

Quoted from louth_in_the_south

Kiddy are bottom . We should've beat them . No excuses

a team is a team, doesn't matter where they are, all teams are beatable, on another day we might of hammered them, on another day they might of hammered us, start the season over and they could be top and we could be bottom. It's football, at least we have another clean sheet and haven't lost any ground to the top and we are now unbeaten in 7 games. UP THE MARINERS!

I went today, just got back to car. I haven't read this whole thread just the last page and I'm a bit baffled to be honest who was the commentator? Jt? What's he say? Was it his normal negative views?

We played really well and should of won be we didn't! Another clean sheet never even looked like conceding. We hit the bar twice, elds and cook should of scored but we look really solid! AGainst an organised side who will be up there with us come the end of the season.

I'm still baffled we haven't signed anyone on loan to be honest for that extra bite that we need, I think southwell should of came on alot sooner but we did what we have to do! I'd say a win on Friday is a must to be fair although a draw and a win against gateshead would also be alright.

If we keep in or around top 5 for when hearn comes back mid to late Feb then I think we'll be alright.

DOn't get to doom it was a very organised performance! If luck was on our side we Would have won.


I'm not even going to mention the tosser in the middle...

Had this been a home game then I would agree with the negative posts but a point away at this stage and a clean sheet is well worth having. Nobody in the top 7 won today with macc having to scramble a point a point. A good week for us really unlike forest green who would've expected 6 points but got only 1.

It's another game unbeaten, another point gained on the top position and keeps us going. We are clearly becoming hard to beat we just need to take our chances. I fancy us against Luton and Gateshead and we will be in the playoff positions in no time.

The league is tight so it is important to not lose or lose tough with the top spot.

Quoted from louth_in_the_south

Kiddy are bottom . We should've beat them . No excuses

Liverpool are currently in 19th .. Sunderland play them this afternoon. do you think they'll be saying we have to beat these they're in the relegation zone .. no... position means nothing . Kiddy are unbeaten in 4 and were play off contenders in previous seasons. We drew and lost against Kiddy last season (including an away draw where we were woeful and drew 1-1 against 10 men with a lucky elding 92nd minute equiliser) ... we are a much better squad than last season and are not conceding goals. UTM

Town should go in for some player around 20 years old, who plays in the reserves, Wycombe signed 19 year old [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marcello_Trotta]Marcello Trotta[/url] from Fulham on loan last season and he banged in 8 goals in 8 games!

I bet their is loads of talented players who would love to play first team football out there, gathering dust in the reserves, even if we get a striker in just for a month it could be a great boost.

Was there to, just got in car, couldn't agree more with this post, we seemed to almost switch off at times but when we didn't there was only going to be one winner. It does feel Luke a loss because we didn't half miss some sitters. As for the ref well he needs talking to shocking is one word for his performance. Ok point need to win Friday utm !

I get the impression Rob Scott reads The Fishy! lol

We should be winning these games if we're going to be up there in may

No we're a team who should be in the top 5 at least this year , not a mid table team ffs

Isn't Kidderminster suposed to be in top 5 too, going by sports pundits? It's football, on another day we may have hammered them, it just wasn't our day, but then on another day they may of beaten us. As a FOOTBALL SUPPORTER you surely know this. There are other games and we won't win them all nor will we stay unbeaten, but then I could be wrong. Keep calm, keep faith, Up the Mariners!

Kiddy will be nowhere near top 5 this year due to losing their best players , injuries and being skint . Any FOOTBALL SUPPORTER whos got a clue would know that

Why all the doom and gloom?

Win on Friday night and we will be in fifth place!

Quoted from cod.gtfc

Hate to say this but there will still be some that won't be happy even if we go top. I am happy though and still believe we'll be up there soon. UTM!

Can't really judge the performance today until later in the season. Kiddo might challenge for promotion again.  Seems we played well and kept another clean sheet.  Have only 1 team scored against us in the first 80 mins? You can build on a good defence.

We have an excellent away record over the last year.    

We missed chances today.  That is why we bought Liam.

Overall, we are doing well this season.

I can not believe some of the negative posts on here tonight, Well yes I can because there's always some who think we can win every game.

Here is a thought,

Luton are 3rd tonight,

If we beat them on friday and we will,

We will be above them on Friday night.

FFS, will you lot just accept people have a right to a different view... It doesn't make them "negative" because they think we should have won today...

Get of your soap box... Some of you are worse than them bible loving types that try and preach to people on the door step... "positive" this "positive" that... it's boring as intercourse, just accept people see things differently...

We except it, but doesn't mean we have to like it, or shouldn't share our opinions on the matter. People question other people's opinions, it's called a DEBATE, on a fans forum I thought that was supose to happen?

Dress it up all you like but we should have won there today and we have now failed to beat Southport, Barrow, Nuneaton and Kiddy, also lost at home to Stockport. That is not promotion form. We let teams off the hook time and time again.

Beating the poorer teams in the league allows you a bit of leeway if you lose to the likes of Luton and Forest Green, which could easily have happened last week. Newport showed how it's done today, winning 3-0 at Barrow, who everyone assured us were a really tough team to beat at home when we drew there, again trying to put a gloss on a poor result.

I'm heartened by our resolute defence and all good sides are built from the back, but we really need someone to put the ball in the net. Hearns season is over in my opinion because even when he is healed, he will be rusty for a good while after a serious injury. We must go out and get a consistent goalscorer soon as, or we will drift in midtable.

We don't have a striker anywhere near bothering the goalscoring charts, while teams like Tamworth, Nuneaton and Woking do. Something wrong there. Needs sorting.

We play teams twice in a season, would you be eating your words and admit you're wrong if we was to be promoted? It's still too early to be a defeatist, on average the teams that win this league loose at least 5-6 games, we have only lost 1 so far, so I am optimistic on those grounds. And I am sure the goals will come just like last season, maybe even better than last season.

Reason I said that is because 20 minutes later, he's on the Radio and totally random out the blue - said "it's alright saying sign some young player from the premiership on loan, but their on at least 5K a week, we can't afford that, and alot of players don't want to drop into the conference."

Freaked me out! haha.

Ah right, he's right though, which is why I haven't jumped on the "bring in some youngster" band wagon. If they are from our league they may not be what we want plus we have Southwell. I think, like someone else mentioned, that we have the fire power, it's just a case of playing the right ones together because at the moment it hasn't worked upfront, maybe need to mix it up abit. I think Scott and Hurst know what they are doing and I have faith in them to turn the goal scoring drout around into a flood of goals just like last season, which is why I try not to criticise.

I hope S&H read ginnywings post above cos it hits the nail on the head
