Diary - Sunday 8 February 2004

8 February 2004

Paul Groves' career as Grimsby manager looks about as secure as Town's second division status after another outrageous shafting leaves the side one point and one place above the relegation zone. Oldham whizz to a 5-0 lead by half time, aided by the 44th-minute sending off of Michael Edwards, and any thoughts of a Man City-style comeback dissipate as the only goal of the second half comes from the Latics' not-hamstrung Calvin Zola five minutes from time. Lee Thorpe will now presumably be checking the traffic news as he prepares to leg it back down the A1, and the Diary is wondering why in the name of all that is holy I had to be born in Grimsby.

Oh, and thanks to whoever wrote Friday's Diary.
