The Fishy - Grimsby Town FC

Question of the Week

Is football a business or a sport?




 

Town Players Working Double Shifts!!

By: Bill Osborne
Date: 23/01/2002

THE MARINERS are training in the morning and afternoons for the rest of the week ahead of their next game, which is the relegation battle against fellow strugglers Rotherham United at Millmoor next Tuesday night.

But Graham Rodger says it is not a punishment for the team's recent poor performances but a chance for the players to work on putting things right.

"We are getting the players back in, in the afternoons, because it's an ideal time to try and sort things out and put a few things right.

"It gives us the chance to have some quality time on the ball and work on some systems and put a few ideas to the lads.

"With a full week and no game at the weekend, Paul Groves and myself feel it's important to get the players together as often as we can."
