    About 600/700 at a guess. Not a full away end by any means.

    This Grimsby team deserve to go down just because of the way they take their free kicks… stupid fish

    Missing a calm head in midfield to pass the ball.

    As soon as they press we just pass backwards to the keeper instead of finding a bit of space or switching play to the other side.

    Their free kicks are rivalling our final third play for utterly crap so far this afternoon.

    That’s absolutely pathetic from Smith. Is his neck made out of plasticine!?

    Smith regularly gets into good positions, but he must be one of the worst finishers I’ve ever seen,

    Who's scoring the goals today? Always a worry when Cook doesn't play but even though the build up okay is ok we don't seem to have a threat when the ball comes in.

    This ref should let play run. He’s spoiling a dour game ;)

    Another chance Cooky would have buried but we played better without him apparently.

    He doesn't look like someone who is confident heading a ball.

    Andy Cook getting injured for Easter egg season.... he's a smart cookie ;)

    He is our only genuine outlet isn't he? These hoofs down the channs for Smith to run after just don't work.

    we look shockingly poor. Thats what happens when you play 6 defenders against a relegation team Graham

    Not this many he doesn't. You don't score amount he has if you constantly miss in the 6 yard box

    There must be someone else who could at least try and and take a free kick FFS.
    Smallwood must surely have the worst record in the league for chances created, assist and goals from free kicks. Awful every sodding time

    Atrocious performance so far. Grimsby are dire and there for the taking.

    Far too many soft free kicks given away by City
