    Likewise. All about opinions, as you say.

    Watched the recent Grimsby highlights and they look absolutely devoid of confidence. Big gaping holes in defence - let’s see if we can take advantage, however with our Jekyll and Hyde approach to games who knows what will happen.

    Interesting backdrop - their manager Artell was interviewed for the City job after Hughes left.

    I change from Friday with Tomkinson in for Jamie Walker. Expect that will mean Oyegoke moves into midfield like he did on Friday sitting deeper with Smallwood and Pointon a bit further forward.

    6 defenders against a poor team?

    We might win but seriously how do you plan long term with GA when not even himself knows what tactics or formation he wants to play.

    Where is Cook?

    Hope the young lads can do the business. Unless we’re bringing the loans in permanently next season though I wouldn’t bother with them, all focus should be finding out who’s worth keeping now.

    Don't be surprised to see him loaned out to Swindon in July.

    More seriously (hopefully) I heard a rumour he sustained an injury at Harrogate, but I never saw it verified. Other rumours seem less likely and won't repeat them here.

    Cook wants out. Don’t expect him to feature much in our remaining games.

    If you want an outside bet, don’t be surprised to see him go to Spennymoor in the summer.

    Alexander said in his post match interview on Friday that Cook got a knock against Harrogate which caused him an issue in training last week.

    Cook is injured like Young , Macdonld , Pattinson, Gillead, Stubbs, Taylor, have i missed anyone, and Walker just back from injury and building the fitness. The team picks itself currently

    Hopefully they defend like they did at Barrow. Might give us a chance.

    I work with a Grimsby season ticket holder so nothing less than a convincing win is acceptable
