As others have said Grimsby were the better team tonight. Their players might be less naturally talented, but they just seemed to want it more. Be interested to see some stats on how often we won possession in open play, because we play a lot of tippy tappy football but don't seem to ever win the ball off the other team.
Did anyone else think Slocombe should have got Man of the Match for us? Particularly at the time it was awarded (around the 85th minute).
Overall a very frustrating night, but also not unexpected.
Following tonight's game a move to FGR for IB might be the best thing for all parties. I think he's a talented young coach. He might be perfect for them at L1 level, if he keeps them up next season - which he's probably more capable of than winning promotion with us - then he's a hero.
If he gets offered it he'd be mad to turn it down. Will it also be the first time we'll have ever had compensation for a manager? It's usually us paying them off...
