I'm still pretty optimistic about the season, after all every team has their off day and Grimsby have had a great pre season overall, beating Derby in the process. I think as well that the fact we put in a good performance and only lost 2-1 with what was a disjointed team shows the ability of our players. Team chemistry will come with time and once it is achieved we will be flying, the real question is how much time it takes for the players to gel. I'm still staying with my original prediction of playoffs, but I'd go automatics if we can recruit a solid centre-half.

Spot on. Gill Swerts though has apparently said he would like to help bring up the younger players in the squad, and with him being an experienced defensive midfielder he has the qualities to improve both his defensive skill and most importanty his ability on the ball, so if he could lead Hollis it would only mean good things
