I'd be surprised if we see Clarke in a Stanley shirt again, despite today's goals.

Aye to be honest the goals have come a little too late - keep him if we can on the cheap but I wouldn't exactly be devastated if he didn't come back.

Isn't he on a season-long loan? Hence the shirt number?

Good result today; if we'd not got the three points it would have been a travesty of justice. Thought Edwards and Charnock played well .....

Good shout DDevil 2006.

My staff always up their game, the week before a review.

Well, first of all a big well done to Jamie Clarke. I hope he gathers confidence from his hat trick today and takes it into the forthcoming games he plays for us.
There is however a very long way to go. I don't mean to sound cynical here; but the team played no better than usual - they just met weaker opposition.
I am worried about Paul Mullin's performance. He seems to lack confidence and is not playing with his usual degree of gusto.
John Miles. John bloody Miles. Why he can't stick on the left wing and do his job is beyond me. He doesn't just drift inside, he makes up an entirely new position (about the only thing he does create) between the wing and midfield, successfully contributing nothing at all to the game. Chris King ran the whole left side today (a job well done might I add) and against better opposition we'd have conceded many from breaks on the right flank due to Miles' absence.
I was impressed with the defence though. They seemed to protect Dunbavin a lot more than the last match I saw against Rotherham.
We needed the points today, well done Reds.

I know Clarke isn't the greatest, but maybe he was encouraged by the early loud shouts from the Cowshed Mafia of "B*gger off back to t'Rovers you bl**dy dope."

Those guys are an inspiration to anyone!!!

Despite the half lack lustre performance in many spells, im certainly not complaining about the result made my new year amongst the great welcome received at the hub of stanley behind the scenes - have to thank Mick Shultz a million for making my day

Whilst it was 3 points won, the performance was totally unacceptable. No spirit and at times the team looked lost. Grimsby's goal was a joke, why on earth Bav's didn't kick it clear is beyond me. However, Jamie took his 3 goals well but at times didn't seem interested and other times wanted to take on the 11 men of Grimsby. I think a spell in midfield with brother John would suit Paul Mullin, he has been a great servant to the club but I amongst others think he has lost his touch up front. Jimmy Ryan for me was a sensation and Cav played well, but how that referee missed so many fouls by Grimsby players is beyond me. I haven't a clue what he and his assistants were watching, but it wasn't this match. Lets hope this win instills some confidence for the match against 'Dale next Saturday, because it didn't instill much confidence in me.

Must agree with you Ozzy. Whilst it was 3 points, at times Grimsby were playing us off the park - a point that was not just my opinion but that of 1 or 2 in the Clayton End - but it was 3 points and we must be thankful for that and build on that hopefully!
