Maybe it’s because we spent a long time in non league where the refs were truly terrible but we’ve only had a few controversial moments/terrible referring performances this season. We had Lewis Smith against Peterborough who became the youngest ref in PL history last season he stood out for me...

He’s been right about 95 per cent of our transfers in the last couple of seasons.

We’d need to have a hell of a January transfer window to be in the auto mix. I’d suggest we’re more likely to finish in the bottom half than second. We should have come out of Huddersfield, Rotherham and Birmingham with at least seven points and instead we took two. We don’t turn our dominance...

Two points off the playoffs with two games in hand. You’re entry into the midtable cup is denied.

I read some quotes the other day and he’s ready to but his way out of trouble in January .

A Championship club wouldn’t have offered him regular starts in the summer - they will now. Good chance Villa will recall him and see him to the Championship.

Much the better side it was only our poor finishing and Wrexham’s keeper that stopped it being a mauling. I’m sure they will return the favour at the Racecourse and beat us as they always do.

Only problem at HT is we’re not 3-0 up like we deserve to be. Wrexham’s gameplan is horrendous. Sit deep and hoof forward to two strikers with no mobility or pace.

Good mix up of our ‘old’ and ‘new’ styles tonight. Tried to play when we could but also looked to turn round Reading and go more direct at times as well and added some much need intensity back into our play.

Challinor said post match that we think we’re done but we’re also down to 14 fit outfield players so any more injuries and you’d imagine we’d have to change our minds. Still think it’s odd we’re not after a RB/RWB on loan with MSH, Knoyle and Connolly out for varied lengths of time and Mingi...

It can be both and I think it is. I reckon you’ll do back to back promotions because of it so don’t knock it.

Yeah thought the scoreline was a fair reflection of the game. Not sure what your tactics were in the second half? You sat back like a team a goal ahead rather than behind and let us completely control the game.

I remember Grimsby fans being quietly confident of a top seven finish before last season started and now you’re painting yourself as huge underdogs against a side that finished 14th last season and lost their top goalscorer. Will Notts have a bigger budget than you? Probably but not by a huge...

Yep he’s available. Pretty sure he’ll be on the bench.

He had Championship clubs offering him two year deals. I’m not totally on board with it but not a chance in hell he was signing for us on a one year deal.

Our Owner confirmed we’re around 10th in budget but he’s pushing DOF and DC to overachieve and is hoping for top 6.

After two games.

Stokes was really good against us in the cup games last year and had a great first half of the season but tailed off quite a bit once signed by Bristol City and loaned back, scoring just three goals in the NL after we hit January. I agree with the poster above that I’d have thought L2 would...

Yeah I agree. Let’s remember we’re coming off the back of a shambles of a pre-season (everything but recruitment) where there has be no chance for the new squad to gel coming into the opener with 10 players out injured and quite a few that did play severely undercooked. Despite that we could...

We didn’t see much of him at all and that was despite us having huge injury problems in midfield. His uncle came on our forum telling us how lucky we were to have him when he signed him. He was told how deluded he was and how he’d be a squad player and usually teenagers out on their first loans...
