Match

Grimsby Town run riot against Notts County

3‑0, and the margin flattered nobody — it could have carried another goal or two without complaint. Afternoons like this are why people keep coming.

Player ratings

Jonatan Reis, 37, rolls back the years — 8.16

There is an age at which every good afternoon gets described as a throwback, which is unfair and also accurate. 8.16 at 37, and nobody on the pitch was better.

Squad

George Evans signs a new deal

“I never wanted to be anywhere else. There is unfinished business here.” George Evans commits to Grimsby Town for another 3 years.

Squad

Jonatan Reis in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Grimsby Town this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

The terraces

The crowd has taken to Cameron Gardner

At 20 he is being sung about by people twice his age, which is an affection a signing has to earn over years and a local kid gets for turning up. It is also the hardest thing in football to live up to.

Squad

Charles Vernam gets it from the manager

“Nobody here is above being told.” It was not said with a name attached, but the dressing room can count, and so can everybody who was listening.

Player ratings

Ninety minutes of Darragh Burns at his very best

Marked 8.07. Players have careers without a single afternoon like this in them, and he has just had one in front of everybody at Grimsby Town.

Squad

George Evans has outgrown this division

There is a level at which a footballer stops being tested and starts being contained, and he reached it some time ago. Grimsby Town know it, and so does everybody who watches him.

Market

Stevenage expected to open talks for Cameron Gardner

Both sides expect a conversation in the coming days. Grimsby Town will name a price, and everything after that is arithmetic.

In brief
