Kristine Green has also been deservedly shortlisted as SLO of the year and, that award being decided by a panel, her prospects of winning are far greater. As Kris cannot be there, Tony has offered to accept the award on her behalf if she wins. Fingers crossed he's called on to do so. Regrettably, there will be no photographic record as he's one of the last people in the Western hemisphere not to own a smartphone.

Cod almighty: how a ‘mythical’ Faroes delicacy has vanished Cod almighty: how a ‘mythical’ Faroes delicacy has vanished

The Mariner makes a welcome return this afternoon for the visit of Woking to Blundell Park. To commemorate their 20th anniversary, Cod Almighty take over a number of our regular features and articles, putting their own spin on today’s edition. Ah-ha, but we do have a reporting of the afternoon's entertainment for you, courtesy of Mr Chris Parker, including the after-match boxing match. The simple Piemen assembled with their colours and noise and promised a half-time treat for all: a special guest appearance by a former Mariner, an old estate agent called Gary. Ah, you're too young to get it. Do I have to spell it out? G.A.R.Y.L.U.N.D. Old times, old players, just old memories for old men. And this is no county for old men. The Mariners had been put out of the League Cup by local rivals Lincoln, and they'd also shipped five at Chester and Darlington earlier in the season. There had also been heavy defeats at Exeter and York. And were you at Palace in 2001-02 when we lost 5-0? Perhaps you made the trip to Bolton in 1996-97, when we conceded six, or to Hillsborough, when we conceded seven?I probably overlooked a couple of Arsenal shots, but you, and I, don't care about that. As far as Town goes, there was one more effort and, hold on to your functional headwear, it was on target. We made their keeper touch the ball with his hands. A triumph and something to tell your grandchildren on a future festive occasion. distinctive pronunciation of the gas generally referred to outside the walls of Ladysmith Road's moribund Birds Eye factory as ammonia; eg. They sent us home early cos there was an armonia leak! The red one, as I remember, had no nil; instead, it was filled with twos, threes, and fours. That was reserved for the top sides only, playing at home. The orange one was almost as good and was reserved for top sides playing away. Ian Burchnall resigned as Notts County manager, to join Forest Green Rovers, on 27May 2022, four days after we beat them in a play-off eliminator (He'd have stayed on a few more days if we'd lost)

gooseberries. I've just heard Ross Burden use this word on Ready Steady Cook and no way is he from Grimmo, but it's a nice one so I think we'll keep it in anyway Boulding replaced Allen at half time, a straight swap with no tactical changes. The Town fans gave the mighty midget a huge cheer. indefinite but lengthy period of time; eg. I haven't been to Wonderland for yonks! Again, not exclusive to Grimmo, but I like it

Articles by John Newman, Lawrie McMenemy, Charles Ekberg, Roy Line and Sid Woodhead covering the history of the club, with particular emphasis on the 1930s. Thereis a lot of repetition in the content. You are probably better off looking for Ekberg's The Mariners (qv) This books provides impressively detailed short biographiesof every player to have appeared for Grimsby up to the time of publication, often providing quotes that illustrate their playing style, notable incidents and their career before and after football. Bill Harvey was a Grimsby Town squad member between 1937 and 1939. After the war, he moved into coaching and managed Town from January 1968 to January 1969.

Town weren't bad, just not good enough to cause Arsenal any problems. There was some excellent controlled defending by Chapman (who, according to someone on my left, "leapt like a salmon" at least seven times during the game. That was his phrase du jour), including one moment where he controlled the ball on his chest near the Town goal line, and calmly passed the ball upfield. Similarly, Broomes and Groves had a couple of flashy moments inside the Town penalty area. Because the truth is, as I see it anyway, we bought several players in the summer who are way better than the ones they replaced. But two months in to the season the team is markedly worse. Conteh is industrious, elegant but he doesn't stop goals and he doesn't make them. The defence has some great additions whom I individually admire, but they are as leaky as my water butt. The new keeper has it all, except he doesn't seem to save many. The lad Eisa had a dream start ( a bit like the Golden Dude all those years ago) but all that glisters is not gold and he has stopped scoring. Deflation, any optimism punctured, the Town crowd were not so much stunned as resigned. I can't remember hearing the Arsenal supporters cheer. There were some there, I could see them, they got up and went to the toilet at half time, so I know they weren't a mural or dummies. Interviews by pupils of St Thomas CE Primary School with 45 ex-Boston players, including ex-Mariners Keith Alexander, Brian Clifton, Mike Czuczman, Don Donovan, Brian Dunn, Jimmy Fell, Bill Harvey, Billy Howells, Phil Hubbard, Keith Jobling, John Lakin, Jim Lumby, Arthur Mann, George Simmonds, Matt Tees and Malcolm White. The focus is natually on their Boston career but there is still a lot of interesting Town material as well. At the same time as Sven went, Stuart McCalltook a pre-emptive dive by resigning from his post in the week before his failing Bradford team were due to play the Mariners. He knew what was comingDuring the same period Boulding was twice, within a minute, flagged for offside when sent free. The crowd moaned, but he probably was offside, as the passes were delayed too long. You could see the Town player look at Boulding, look down to his own feet, then think, then pass forward. It simply enabled the Arsenal defence to see what was about to happen and step up. This was a period of near domination by Town, and no goal, not even a shot on target. Déja flippin' vu, eh? Now this is not the end. It is not even the beginning of the end. But it is, perhaps, the end of the beginning.

From prison to the Premiership: the amazing true story of Britain’s hardest footballer with Ron Shillingford style of dress and design suggesting poor taste, premature ageing and a hard life. See here for an unnecessarily detailed explanation Football is in the grip of a panic that just won't ease. Players are spending whole seasons sitting on benches. Yes, we need a squad, we need healthy competition, and we need to cover injuries, but the loan system is no longer fit for purpose. Its nature has shifted to benefit the few, to serve the elite, and so managers sign players for whole seasons, knowing full well they might not even see the light of day. It's really pleasing that it came together, and really pleasing that we were clinical in the final third…They are a good team, I thought they were one of the better teams we'd played this season."A mild, still night with the merest hint of a chill in the air. All the seats were wet which meant there were some soggy bottom boys in the Town end. Well, following Town does make us men of constant sorrow. After Neilson had given the ball away and been roasted and toasted (with a crunchy cheese topping) Aliadiere (Scrabble bag boy) hit a low shot from 20 yards which skipped over Groves' heels and travelled towards the bottom right-hand corner of the goal. Coyne threw himself horizontally across and parried the ball away for a corner. He even caught the corner when it came in. In the last minute or two another one of the substitutes (Halls, how unusual an Anglo-Saxon name on their team sheet) ran onto a Bergkamp low cross from their right and, from about 12 yards out at the near post, swept the ball across the face of the goal and just wide. Oh, and Bergkamp spun and twisted past Groves in the penalty area on the Town right, got to the bye-line and crossed into the centre of the goal mouth. Little Ben leapt (perhaps like a salmon) and headed the ball over the bar. Both teams are flawed in different ways. We know ours, they may not realise the full extent of theirs just yet. distinctively Grimbarian abbreviation for Coronation Street, which is truncated by the rest of the Anglophone world to "Corrie"
