He looked interested, passed the ball well, challenged Crawley and ran about a lot - which is nice cos he's a newbie, isn't he? Hope he does well with Town. He also seemed like a sweetie. One good thing about non-League grounds is that you can almost look into the eyes of the players for how close you are to them.
"The performance was nowhere near what we're capable of and what we expect. Once it went to ten men we should have dominated the game."
"It was a huge decision for the referee to make. I'm going to look at the DVD and if I'm right his bad decision was the reason why we lost that game."
Playing badly and winning was the speciality of the great Grimsby Town sides of, er, 2006.
