Idle Diary writes: "Looking at the performance of the team and individuals on Saturday, we know we need to do better. We'll always take a win but there wasn't enough quality with the ball and we have a long way to go." So states Neil Woods ahead of tonight's match against York City, the second of two stern opening tests for the Mariners. After Saturday's match, Woods revealed that the match was an eye-opener and seems prepared to accept a degree of learning and adapting to the Conference. York, in case you weren't peering a little further down the league tables last season, were beaten play-off finalists so this Blundell Park opener is likely to be a fraught affair.

The team news can be summed up as thus: Charles Ademeno, Lewis Gobern, and Rob Atkinson are out for Town, while Peter Till is likely to come in for York. But less of my bleating. The full run down is in the ever-excellent pre-match factfile.

And finally, while Peter Levy and Paul Hudson still continue to toe the just-about-civil line, here's one weather presenter who's had enough of his anchorman's shit. Stick it to the man!
