Advantages: No money

Disadvantages: Where do i start?

I realise that i am very outspoken on this topic but i thought i may as well see if anyone is at least willing to humour me. For me the sacking of Alan Buckley was nothing more than a miracle. I personally never forgave him for running off to W.B.A and then comming back to us with his tail firmly placed inbetween his legs! However it would appear as thought for the first time ever the Grimsby Town Board of Directors has done somthing in the interests of the club. The sacking of Lawrance from Luton was to say the least a bit of a shock...but it was nothing in comparison to him declaring his intention for the vacant job at Grimsby town.
Lawrance can only do as well as the board will let him, yet it is the old addage that the new manager needs money to build a strong squad etc etc. The area in which Lwarance exceeds where Buckley, Swain and Laws have all failed is that he realises the potential players laying undiscovered at the towns schools and sunday league sides. The realisation is this...there is no money therefore there can be no big name signings (remember Bonetti?) yet the town produces a decent amount of raw talent (Gary Croft for insatnce.) the only way that Lawrence can keep Town in the first and maybe even consolidate in mid table is by tapping the untouched talent which exists in Grimsby and Cleethorpes.
