Grimsby Town match thread

Our appalling recent record of 8 points from the last 39 available is statistically better than Grimsby's 4 points from the last 27 - so why am I convinced they'll dick us ? It's not a good time to be an Alty fan.

I think we're good enough to stay up, but next season could be quite another story.

I'm worried now. As alluded to on another thread, the season when we set some kind of record for consecutive draws, we went down.

We'll be on the wrong end of another spanking if we approach this game the same way as we did Stockport.

That's how I'd go but PP seems to have major problem with Furman

Id go with this. Argument for Digie over Mularkey who I have thought has looked a bit out of his depth the last few months.

Mooney fades too quickly when he starts so I would go with Kosylo and bring Mooney on if we are a goal down.

Need to be much more positive and just have a go at them. Grimsby appear to be sh*t too. Going for a grim 1-1 draw.

We 100% need to be attack minded and get at them.

Would be nice to try and get a couple of goals up, instead of always chasing our bloody tails.

I'd go with that team too, so I don't expect to see it.

We need to forget the last three games in the sense that we all really knew we were going to lose them whilst at the same time remembering where our strengths lie.
That means playing our best eleven in a formation they're comfortable with.
If we do this then we can expect things to improve.
Whether that's this weekend, I don't know but I think we'll have more of a chance.
My team would be :

Thompson

Morgan
Mullarkey
Hannigan
White

Furman
Osborne

Mooney/Kosylo
Pringle
Colclough

Hulme

Subs : Densmore, Moult, Hancock, Leitch-Smith, Drench.

That side would have a great chance of a positive result.

Just reread oneedhams post.
Sorry for the duplication, clearly great minds etc...

This is the logical team for the Grimsby game, but logic seems to be out of the window at the moment.

Knowing our luck, we'll play Moult and Hannigan CB, with Digie AND Mallarky in CM

Not sure what will happen tomorrow if I’m honest. Grimsby we’re very good when they played us at ML

If we put out a team with the best men in the right positions and we play in the way we all know we can and enjoy, then, I can see us getting something from Grimsby who are also going through a bad patch.

If we piss about with playing people in roles that they are unfamiliar with then, we will have a problem.

I’m sure Parky will do the former and hopefully it will be a happy team coach ride home.

Heart Grimsby 1 - 2 Alty. or 2 - 2 …

Head Grimsby 2  - 1 Alty.

Let’s play the way we are best at.

Onwards & Upwards..

Bit quiet on here today.
Looks like everyone's heading off to the east coast! 😉
Happy trails to you all! 🎖️👍
