Always liked Super Jackie Lester, the type of player who will fall through bricks walls for you  


Supporting the Mighty Mariners for over 30 years, home town club is were the heart and soul is and it's great to be a part of it.

Quoted from Tommy
Yeah nothing but good memories of Super Jack for me.

I remember being younger and going to lots of reserve games when Jack was knocking on the door of the first team, for what seemed like forever. And then being an exciting player in the first team before going on to bigger and better things.

He's been popular at every club he's been at I think, which says a lot as that's pretty rare.

No issue with him celebrating the goals he scored for Chesterfield against us. I'm not a fan of ex-players not celebrating goals as long as they don't purposely rub it in our faces. But i think he'd been copping some unfair stick from some in the lower findus so you can't grumble at him having a pop back ("don't dish it out if you can't take it back" comes to mind).

He seems to have been forging a good reputation for himself coaching the youngsters so good luck to him.


Hmmm....... Yes Steve Kabba springs to mind re the celebration. Agree about Jack and scoring goals against us, things might have been different if he'd have cupped his ear though

On a serious note good luck to him I remember Craig Cay saying what an influence he was on him when he was a senior pro at Chesterfield.

Think chesterfield would be unwise to take a chance on someone with minimal management experience. He might be a good coach for strikers and he was a great striker but managing a club in trouble needs management skills which jack has not had the opportunity to demonstrate

Hey ho if they do its not our problem

Kevin nolan ain’t doing a bad job with Notts county. You can say his time at Leyton Orient didn’t go well but he managed a 46.7% win ratio with 7 wins from 15 games.

Would be nice.


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
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.
