Idle Diary writes: Yeesssss! Everything fell into place for Town's ReNewell on Saturday, with the first team a Magic Mike's Mix of talented loanees and the best of what Alan Buckley left behind. The manager's preference for Nathan Jarman on the right was repaid with a spunky performance from the youngster capped by a sweetly struck winner, modestly described as "I managed to just get the end of my foot on it". Sweet as beating the team top of the table is - the final whistle sparked scenes of jubilation in the away end not seen since Margaret Thatcher decided to sling one from Number 10 - will the Mariners produce another bon-bon performance like that against the more lowly placed Rotherham this Saturday? And then there's the other remaining 21 fixtures...

But, you know what? I'm not worried. I'm sure Mike Newell has it all under control. It's all part of a plan.
