It’s been another busy week for the Mariners and another week indicative of their season so far with a win on the road at Tranmere but a defeat at home to MK Dons. The panel begin by discussing a switch back to the 5-3-2 formation that has served them well previously and how it brought the best out of some players at Prenton Park but then move on to debate what might have caused another disappointing capitulation at Blundell Park, conceding twice in five minutes to surrender another lead. The...

The rollercoaster that has been Grimsby's season so far took a dip again this weekend as The Mariners were humbled 4-1 at home to a ruthless Walsall side. The panel look back at another disappointing capitulation and discuss the team’s mentality, belief and defensive concerns. But it wasn’t all doom and gloom as the guys agree an impressive first half display perhaps didn’t get the rewards it deserved. They then look back at the fans forum held on Friday evening and the main talking points...

The Mariners were back on the road this weekend and back to winning ways, recording their third consecutive away win, 2-1 at Salford City. Though it wasn’t the prettiest display the panellists begin by praising the dogged nature of the performance and the squad’s new found ability to defend a lead. They then discuss the impact of the returning Doug Tharme, yet more injury concerns and Karl Robinson’s reaction interview – was it sour grapes from a man under pressure? In the second half of the...

The Mariners this week picked up where they left off at Carlisle recording an impressive win at league leaders Gillingham on Tuesday night but were brought crashing back to earth with a disappointing 3-0 defeat at home to Doncaster on Saturday.

It was an eventful afternoon in Cumbria for the Mariners as they came back from behind twice on Saturday to record their first away win of the season and their first back to back wins in the league for 18 months. The panellist’s begin by unpacking a chaotic match which included a first team debut for youth keeper Seb Auton after Jake Eastwood was stretchered off with a nasty injury and the potential physiological boost to an injury hit squad after such a milestone win. They then turn their...

Grimsby returned to winning ways on Saturday and it was only fitting they did with Blundell Park celebrating its 125th anniversary.

They go on to discuss some of their favourite memories from over the years at BP and then turn their attentions to the game at Carlisle next Saturday,...

Grimsby failed to carry on their unbeaten home start to the new season with Barrow inflicting a 2-1 defeat on an out of sorts Mariners side. The guys begin by trying to pin point where it went wrong for Artell’s men, whether dropping keeper Jordan Wright was the correct call and whether or not fans are right to question the manager’s methods. They then discuss the more positive news of new investors to the club and joke as to whether they’ll be bidding on the latest Main Stand memorabilia....

The Mariners slipped to their third consecutive away defeat of the season at Chesterfield on Saturday but unusually there is still an air of optimism as our pundits set about dissecting the eventful game.

The guys then go on to chat about how Artell is seemingly getting the best out of previously written off players, Eddie the Eagle analogies for perhaps too long...
