Id go to coral myself, 2.3 at betfred, 2.5 at coral, this has to be worth a shout...

Grimsby have only won away from home once and that was at the start of September against FGR. It's after the lord mayor's show as well with them beating Port Vale in the week. I think i'll keep my money in my pocket.

Yeah, but it looks like the team they'll be facing will be significantly weaker than any other they've faced this season so I'm not sure that will matter, perhaps it won't be a repeat of Weymouth but it does look like there is a good possibility of a hammering considering it could be a hastily put together side of 18 year olds and loanees, if the game even goes ahead that is. Personally I'd say the decent odds that I saw on Grimsby to win by 4+ goals are definitely worth a shout.

Yesterday, I lumped a considerable amount (for me) on Grimsby at 13/8. Someone on poppynet (yes, I'll visit any website if it puts off uni work for half an hour) put up their team, even if they're best 10 left. And tbh it doesnt look that bad a team, feeling abit silly now! :lol:

If thats the case then I'm glad I haven't put much on but they've apparently brought in 2 16 year olds from Posh, which suggests to me that maybe there won't be many of their senior players left at all by Saturday and what Stimson is telling bbc also suggests that, but we'll have to see.

JP Marna has signed on loan for Corby Town until January. Let's hope he doesn't start fighting with Matt Rhead.
Will be interesting to see if he plays in the FA Trophy on Saturday against North Ferriby United. ;)

They seem to think on Poppynet that Marcus Kelly has signed for Mansfield - and several of them are wishing him well and telling him he could make it to the Football League. They don't seem to realise he made his league debut for the Diamonds in Division 2 (aka League 1), and was a regular in the team in our fourth season at League 2 level.
