GRIMSBY Town joint boss Rob Scott says it feels as though something may have 'clicked' with his side over the profitable Bank Holiday weekend. The Mariners followed up Saturday's victory against Alfreton with a 1-0 triumph at Hyde yesterday, making it six points from a possible six over what had looked to be a tough weekend. Alex Rodman's 72nd-minute goal sealed the win at Ewen Fields and crowned a near-perfect weekend for Scott and co-boss Paul Hurst. And the performances in the double-header have given the duo – and the Town faithful – cause for encouragement. He said: "We've known that the lads can play the system that we have done over the weekend. But I think what's clicked is the way they have played it. "We all know what the reaction was after the Aldershot game and that can be harmful at times because players can go within themselves. "But on Saturday and yesterday they were excellent – everyone wanted the ball and they were an excellent team with a real desire to win both games. "Confidence is certainly growing – of course it is. The more games we'll win, the more confident we'll get and the better we will be. "Hopefully, moving forward, that will continue but it was very, very pleasing to pick up six points from the last two games." Scott believed his side were well worthy of the three points that they brought home from Greater Manchester last night. It was a result that moved them to within a point of early Conference leaders Barnet and Scott was pleased with his team's showing. "Away from home, it's always going to be hard," he continued. "First half, we were a little bit short of where we needed to be, but in the second half, we upped our levels and got what we wanted. "We felt that we were the only team who were going to win it if we did that, and so it proved. "We know the quality that the lads have got and we produced a bit of quality to bring about a superb goal to win it."
