Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day,teach a man to fish and you give him an excuse for him to escape from the wife and kids for the weekend and drink lots of beer.

Aye, we signed him from PNE but he was at West Brom before them, with Buckley.

I couldn't care less, as long as they give their all. The days when footballers played for the place they grew up are behind us.

I do believe that most of the players mentioned if not all did actually live in the area though, again I might be wrong but I think Buckley requested it

Thanks for the answers.
So weve established he brought a few in he previously worked with, hardly qualifies as largely though....

He was. Managers like to sign people they know they can rely on. Completely natural thing to do.

Buckley also signed Paul Groves 3 times. Twice for us and once for West Brom. Dave Gilbert twice (us and WBA again).  And he also took Tony Rees, Paul Agnew, Arthur Mann (RIP) and a rusty old trawler* to WBA.



* I think I've still got an old copy of GrortyDick with it on the cover.

I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.

He brought Gilbert back here on a month's loan too, KM, at the start of 97/98.
