9 March 2010

Mardy Diary hurriedly scribbles: It's all go again tonight with raised hopes for another victory - another three points would really make a huge difference right now to our chances of staying up. Why do we do this to ourselves? Have we really turned a corner this time? Will we scrape a narrow win, tear them apart but not score or simply not bother to turn up as we have done so often this season. Which Town will it be tonight? Whichever one shows their face, be sure to read our pre-match factfile which should be turning up sometime soon (Si!).

One Mariners team still flying the flag is the youthers, who recorded another excellent win last night against York Wals Yor... against, who the fuck knows? I've re-read that Telegraph article several times and I'm still none the wiser. You know what they say - if you put a bunch of monkeys in a room with a load of typewriters, they'll eventually get recruited to write for the Grimsby Telegraph sport section.

Whatever happened when, one thing we do know is that the Youthers beat York Walsall at some point recently and that sees them through to the Midland Super Floodlit All-Stars Football-a-rama Super Cup Final in association with Tom's Carpet Warehouse. League form has suffered somewhat as a result of minds being on the cup, says Adam Smith (still in his 'caretaker' role), but victories are victories and we'll take them wherever we find them. Well done Myspacers.

In other news - there isn't really any other news, except that the pitch at Crewe is fine. Game on! Come on you bloody buggers!
