Those the odds for next keeper?
When Amorim said āwe can beat any team in the leagueā was he talking about the National league?
hey lads, been a bit under the pump at the moment, losing track of who plays when and i noticed theres a few posts on here since my last visitā¦
ā¦oh my.
put the kettle onā¦turn off the notificationsā¦have a good ol read about the football for half an hourā¦
DT still lives! ![]()
Heās making the distinction between āteamā, i.e. Grimsby, and group of players, i.e. his group of players. In his mind, the group of players sent a message which was āwe donāt want to, or canāt, play your way. Weāre done with you, Boss.ā
I hope they donāt bring Jose back as he would actually make a team out of Amorimās group of players.
Itās grim in Grimsby, I hear ![]()
While Hodgson absolutely drove me up the wall, and the following is not intended as a defence of him, it is critical to understand what a dire state the club as a whole was in when he was manager. The team may not have believed in him, but as a unit they did not not down tools - some headed for the exits (painful, but understandable), but the team kept playing. They just were not very good, mostly because they were what we could afford.
Consider the match that I would compare to this Grimsby match, as our nadir - Northampton, also League 2, also on penalty shootout. The side that lost was made up of the ashes of Rafaās teams (Agger, Lucas), bench players for Rafa that never quite made the step up (Babel, Ngog, Jones), players picked up cheap for potential (Kelly, Wilson, Pacheco), players picked up cheap because they were cheap (Kyrgiakos, Jovanovic), and a player who was free but would die for the club (Spearing). It was an odd grab-bag of what could be spared for a midweek fixture, and it wasnāt great, a genuine reflection of the very difficult times the club faced.
By contrast, by the time ManU had lost that fixture, they had burned out the hope of all of their transfers this summer. The team they put on the field gets paid more than their opponents total transfer value, more in two weeks than Grimsby is worth as a club.
replace read with wank.

Haha @SBYM

I read that as āman united shock grimsbyā and chuckled at the thought of the grimsby players looking at each other after 20 mins and saying āfuck, this lot really are shit.ā
The Grimbsy fans were singingā¦
" Are You Scunthorpe In Disguise " :0)
Seeing them flounder like this - Ya just gotta love it

United should be proud, thereās no shame in losing to a top four team.
Wow. Wasnāt aware there was a game and what a read this thread have been. Absolute gold.
I had taken 3 Utd players in FPL as customary ritual to jinx them so that there is no scope for them for any turning-the-corner and watching them in shambles brings so much joy.
I am now contemplating to remove them as I actually donāt want Amorin to get sacked this early. Heās doing Godās work and hope he finishes what Ole and Ten Hag started to finally get Utd where we all want them.
Good morning.
