Grimsby Coach Praises Jude Bell as Key Offensive Player Despite Only 60 Minutes on Field, Leading Team to 3 Points

David Artell, manager of Grimsby Town, praised the performance of Jude Suntap Bell, the Thai-English winger, as one of the key players who helped the team to a 2-0 away win over Cheltenham Town in the English League Two, despite playing only 60 minutes.

On 26 January 2026, Jude Suntap Bell, the 22-year-old Thai international winger, started four consecutive matches for Grimsby Town, including the 2-0 away victory against Cheltenham Town. In this match, Jude played 60 minutes before being substituted for Jess Kabia.

After the game, Artell spoke about the Thai forward:

“I think Jude played very well again. Many things he did might not stand out visibly, but in professional football at a high level, these small details are very important for the team.”

“He works hard for the team, carrying a lot of responsibility during the game, which helps open space for players like Jess Kabia, Andy Cook, Framing, and others to have more freedom in attack. What Jude did in the first hour of the game clearly made his teammates' job easier.”

“All of this led to two goals and the three points we needed.”


In this match, Jude Bell's 60-minute performance included 3 shots, 8 passes with 6 completed, 19 touches, 2 successful dribbles from 2 attempts, no lost balls, won 4 of 6 ground duels, and earned 2 fouls.

Meanwhile, Grimsby Town currently sits 10th in the League Two table after 26 matches, with 11 wins, 7 draws, and 8 losses, totaling 40 points, keeping them in contention for a higher position.
