I thought he was looking a better fit up at Bradford than he did at ours. I'm guessing the football is just as dire though, whatever the result.

The football is turgid. Don't rate him as a manager at all. Shouldn't be getting another manager job after he leaves us, to be honest.

I think if they act quickly and get a steady pair of hands in, they'll be fine next season.

It's all about how quickly they can usher Artell out the door and admit appointing him was a bad mistake. I feel for the players.

Artell looks to have gone away from his general approach though, which I think is a great thing for Grimsby and two cracking away wins have followed.

Where Artell fails is in his coaching ability to make teams play expansive football, even though it is his desire. He will revert back to trying to shorehorn this style in soon. That is my fear.

For this moment, I'm delighted he's adapted and followed my advice.

Incidentally, one for my Grimsby bro's. We were at Hurst's Shrewsbury last night. The stream panned to him constantly. And every time he was literally swigging from a water bottle. He must piss like a race horse at Half and Full Time.

His team had good "shape" and worked hard but had very little creativity which is what you lot complained about to be fair.

The biggest myth on this forum is that I don't want Grimsby to do well. It's the opposite.

You don’t like our manager and you have serious issues against our co-owner, but want us to do well.

Excuse me for calling bullshit on that one.

There was a 1% chance that was news rather than a wish, but still enough to get my hopes up.
But what's the point? The next guy wouldn't be better.
Correct, unless Sharp instead of Sparks had the task of identifying a replacement.

Don't get the point of bringing Sharp in though whilst Sparks is still here?

Been very quiet for sackings so far this season. Only 1. Last season there were 4 by this date and 6 by the end of the month.

Aside from maybe Kennedy, it's hard to see where the next firing is coming.

The Cowleys maybe? Colchester seem to be under performing again. Salford often change quickly.
