The 2022-23 campaign delivered a solid season of consolidation for Grimsby Town as The Mariners, in their first season back in League Two following promotion, secured a respectable 11th-place finish. The season was truly defined by their historic, giant-killing run to the FA Cup Quarter-finals, a feat the club had not achieved since 1939, highlighted by a memorable 2-1 victory over Premier League side Southampton. Anchoring the team with his versatility and drive was academy product and local hero, Harry Clifton, who was named the Supporters' Player of the Year after scoring 7 league goals (9 across all competitions) in a triumphant return to the national stage.
