Cheers.

All the pressure will be on them. Be interesting to see what side the new manager puts out if they're going to be concentrating on staying in The Prem, although we did play Nottm Forest in The Carabao Cup and they made 11 changes and still beat us.

4087 tickets sold is the latest update about an hour ago. An incredible effort for a midweek game that far away. No matter what the result is, its going to be an amazing atmosphere/experience in our first 5th Round FA Cup tie this century!

Good luck Les ! The last time we made the 5th Round we triumphed 4-0 over the Toon in a replay, after a 1-1 draw at that "other SJP" ! Hope that you manage similar ! :)

Well, there won't be a replay on Wednesday. Extra-time and penalties is the score is level at full-time.

Grimsby giving a very good account of themselves so far. I suspect the next forty minutes or so will feel a lot longer for the brave Mariners.

Saints back in it. Taking any partisanship I may, or may not, have out of the equation; this is exactly what you want out of this sort of tie as a football fan/neutral.

Congrats @les.gtfc and the rest of the Mariners contingent. Joking aside about the opposition that was an incredible performance, enjoy tonight!
