Understand how you feel, we are exactly the same plus a 280 mile round trip for a home game meant that we did not renew our season tickets, the fact that we didn't receive any communication from the club regarding renewals did not help or the fact that my communication to the club regarding the possibility of purchasing a season long car park pass as I can no longer walk very far did not even elicit a acknowledgment let alone a reply. Over 65 years support from me and 35 years from my son sailing down the river
Sheesh...we need a lift!!

probably end up winning this 3-0 . There will be wild celebrations from the 4,250 home supporters.

Bought 3 tickets today, looked a decent take up in the DRS at least.

You almost sound disappointed if that were the outcome!

I fully expect us to win & get a really good draw in the second round, because I’ve booked tickets to something else for the evening of the second round assuming we wouldn’t be in it

I'd somehow forgotten they had Jack Payne. That's made me sad.

iFollow definately don't have the rights and never do for any FA cup games, maybe there could be a link available online from somewhere but its unlikely. It hasnt happened at all that I can remember, unless one of the betting companies are covering it as the BBC won't have it live.

But they have the permainjured Ellis Iandolo to counter that, as well as Egbo and Rob Hunt.

Listening to LSPod Presser, Holloway starting off by getting shitty with Joe for asking Grimsby fans for their views of him. "Don't judge me on what I've done before" - I think probably Ian, you mean, don't judge me on jobs that have gone badly, because if you weren't being judged on jobs that went well, you wouldn't be employed as a football manager.
Bit of a deep sigh starting point. Rest of his answers pretty good, just a real unnecessary edge to that, and a few other chippy bits considering it's his first real pre-match presser.
I really hope this goes well, but it feels like if it doesn't go well on the pitch it's going to get really toxic really fast.

Thing is, yeah its a view and he's not well liked at Grimsby. But he asked to be judged on Swindon Town results and its always been the case he will be.

Yeah I found that strange. The outside of club media are there to report in a balanced manner, the club in house media are there to run the ultra positive line. I’d get it if something unnecessarily negative was reported but it was literally just an article of a review from a fan of a former club in a similar position ish to us. Something most outlets would post. Hardly getting the pitchforks out. I need to find an annual bowling pass maybe. Rest of the interview and the clips from the clubs YouTube were somewhat promising though, which makes it all the more shame to blot that positive start with something like that.

I really dislike the notion that the local press should be positive, without any real reason to be. They're there to do a job. Report on the club. They would not be doing their job correctly if they were being unnecessarily positive considering we sit one place above the relegation zone. As said above, the club media channels? Go for it. Be as positive as can be, but when it comes to local press, they are there to hold people to account and give an accurate reflection on matters at the club.
