Match16 Sep 2026

Grimsby Town march on in the cup

Bristol Rovers are out and Grimsby Town go through, 1‑0 the final word. The bracket opens up a little, and everyone allows themselves a look at it.

Player ratings21 Sep 2026

Nobody could get near Darragh Burns

Successful dribbles: 27. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

Match19 Sep 2026

Whatever happens, Grimsby Town do not lose

7 games unbeaten now. Some were earned and some were survived, but a habit is forming — and habits are the hardest thing in football to play against.

Squad21 Sep 2026

Tempers go at Grimsby Town

Christy Pym was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Squad21 Sep 2026

Leandro Wauters gets the move he always wanted

Footballers are asked about their boyhood club so often that nobody listens to the answer. Leandro Wauters has just signed for Grimsby Town, and for once the answer mattered.

Grimsby Town supporters have found a favourite in Zak Gilsenan

There is a particular warmth a ground reserves for a 23-year-old it feels ownership of. Zak Gilsenan has it now, and everything he does for the rest of his time here will be measured against the goodwill he was handed for free.

Squad21 Sep 2026

Ollie Wright 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.

Squad21 Sep 2026

10 new faces, and Grimsby Town are still learning each other

A squad rebuilt inside one window pays for it in a currency nobody budgets for. The football is not worse than the sum of the players; it is worse than the sum of the players who have played together before.

Player ratings21 Sep 2026

Jayden Sweeney stands above it all

Some games turn on a moment; this one turned on a man. 7.59 on the card, and the Grimsby Town support went home talking about one name.

Match15 Aug 2026

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 ratings17 Aug 2026

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.

Squad17 Aug 2026

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.

Squad17 Aug 2026

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 terraces17 Aug 2026

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.

Squad17 Aug 2026

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 ratings17 Aug 2026

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.

Squad17 Aug 2026

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.

Market17 Aug 2026

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.
