Fish puns are so last season. Aren’t we on to Big Mac puns now. It’s not the haddock inflatables that annoy me, it’s the blue whale ones. Always one in the seat in front of me at matches.
I think that Saints felt that Grimsby would provide enough Haddocks for the Saints defence, without bringing more into the ground. It's a load of Pollocks, if you ask me.
Some of the Saints away fans really annoy me, so I would definitely avoid getting involved with unfriendly types. Did once come across one in Whitby. We both did a double take.
You are right, fish puns are so last season. So, I have sent my mate to spy on Grimsby tonight as they are playing in Kent. They are currently losing 1-0 against the Gills

That's demented. We saw it a little with Wolves (and the two passes on JWP-territory FKs), but I'm wondering when teams set up explicitly to try to tempt him into passing, rather than taking on the shot. Something like this: Stick two players on the line, leaving the keeper with the far side of the net. Play everyone onside. Dare us to try to do anything but have him shoot, given that there's literally nothing we can do that has as high of a chance of producing a goal as him shooting direct. Granted, he can still stick in the top corner on the near side, but there's pretty much nothing that can be done about that.
The issue with that is we'd be able to stick someone right in front of the keeper making him completely unsighted. So JWP could just whack it at the keeper's side.
Adding to this, you could even surround the keeper so he's unable to move towards the ball. You'd have to keep an eye on the defenders on the line so if they step up so do you.
True. I present version 2: Four men join the keeper on the line, with the keeper simply flailing their arms as much as possible. One man is responsible for clearing any second balls. The wall stands there and tells JWP how selfish it would be to take on a shot through their whole XI when there isn't a defender within 10 yards of Elyounoussi.
