Gavan Holohan’s brace of penalties was enough to give the League Two side victory, despite Duje Caleta-Car‘s 65th-minute goal.

However, during the match, the club’s Twitter account posted a secret code while giving fans updates.

The first letters from the first 14 updates from the game spelled out a message saying: “No doubt about it”.

The club revealed the message after the full-time whistle on social media in an edited video and fans loved it.

One said: “Oh well played!”

A second tweeted: “Genius .”

While a third wrote: “That is incredible.”

A fourth said: “A message secret enough that you could hide it if you lost, but share this if you won – well played!”

A fifth added: “Grimsby’s Twitter admin deserves overtime pay for this.”

However, some did suggest that the message was just a coincidence, but the club’s Twitter admin did confirm that the move was deliberate.

The League Two face another Premier League side in the quarter-finals as they were drawn against Brighton.
