Diary - Saturday 22 November 2003

22 November 2003

The Mariners shuffle two places upwards in Division Two - "a tight league", apparently - as two late breakaway goals from Michael Boulding snatch a 3-1 win at Brentford. The home side take the lead after nine minutes with a dubious penalty awarded against He That Is McDermott, only for an Iffy Onuora header to level things up just before half time following a cross by Iain Anderson. Boulding's 11th and 12th goals of the season - I'll just say that again, because it feels nice - Boulding's 11th and 12th goals of the season arrive in the last ten minutes of the game, the first resulting from a length-of-the-pitch run by Marcel Cas, who really ought to be in the starting line-up, Mr G. But yes - well done, you chaps!

Also this evening, hearty congratulations to yesterday's guest diarist Rich for contriving to spin out six paragraphs on a day with only one Mariners-related news story anywhere in the inner core systems of the galaxy. Unless you count Seattle Mariners, I suppose, which we tend not to. Well done, sir, and here's hoping your mighty pen graces the pages of this website again soon. Meanwhile, do any Diary readers agree or disagree with Rich that GTFC can tend to be a bit less than forthcoming with information? Email codalmightydiary@yahoo.co.uk with your opinions.

Until next week, this is the Diary bidding you ta-ta and heading out into the cold lonely night for a skinful and a curry to supplement the warm glow of victory. Grimsby roxx!
