Every home game we seem to have a home crowd on the popular side. Anyone enlighten me as I’m sat at home watching on IFollow as usual?

Cagey start. Don’t think we have managed to put two passes together.

Always going to be a difficult half with the wind and their direct balls to their big forwards.
Popular side since '03.

Need to get a better handle on Lewis before one of these efforts hits the target.

There is no creativity here

Absolutely dire, but it's the result that matters most.

Not one player wanted that throw in from James Jones. Terrible Barrow

Certainly attritional first half without much creativity both sides living on scraps. But hold on in there till half time and hopefully push on a wee bit second half!

Not a great game but all about the result and 0 0 will be ok
Hopefully we will pick it up the 2nd half and a bit more enjoyable

Well that was a pile of shite. Let’s hope for better in the 2nd half.

For a team that desperately need a win, Grimsby haven't really shown anything. We'll surely do a lot better with the wind.

Very very scrappy. Hopefully more of a showing second half. Their long balls will hold up more into the wind and hopefully we can string a few passes together
