His outburst at journalists straight after a 4-0 defeat has dented his reputation here somewhat. The likes of Harry Clifton, Max Wright and Mattie Pollock owe Jolley a lot. Clifton was probably 10 games away from being released by Slade and disappearing into the semi-pro game but Jolley gave him a proper crack of the whip.


Who on here has never had a shitty day at work and lashed out at someone/something.
Don't forget his boss was Fenty


In his three stints as Grimsby Town manager spanning over 10 years the club was never relegated and he also guided them to three promotions.
Only 14 managers have reached 1,000 matches in charge of a Football League team by 1998 and Buckley is one of them.

A 58 swear word abusive rant goes beyond what I could reasonably defend as being a error of judgement caused by momentary or even prolonged frustration. The truth is the guy showed his true colours. That's the real Michael Jolley, not the articulate "final third entries" modern football jargon bullsh!tter he pretended to be. The guy was and still is a nasty piece of work and you can count me out of rehabilitating the reputation he wrecked through his own actions. I would rather have Russell Slade back at Grimsby than him.

Perhaps we need a new section on here Rob.
A ‘safe place’.
Where all the world is lovely. Nobody swears or chants.
Every person (or non person) loves and respects every other person (or non person)  Hey. You could even have ‘fluffy bunny of the week.
Where’s FFS when you need him (They).
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂



The wife was going away for a girly weekend.
I jokingly remarked  'I don't know whether to spend it watching porn or watching football'
'you may as well spend it watching porn' she replied
That's understanding darling what makes you say that? I asked

She said 'Well you already know how to play football'

What used to make me laugh about Jolly was his Mrs who used to block anyone on Twitter who was remotely critical about him of the team. He had a great start and kept us up and with a better mentor and owners could quite easily have progressed.

Though his outburst was inexcusable I do think it has to be taken into account who he was working for at the time and the culture of the club that the then "custodians" fostered. To add balance I think the tirade wasn't a formal interview and was recorded or at the very least released without his knowledge, that also feels a bit of a cheap shot.

I wonder if there was any truth that he applied for the Lincoln job?

Wasn’t the tirade recorded at a similar time to the idiot at the top being secretly recorded or was that a little before?

I think the idiot was about the same time.

Maybe Jolley just acted poorly under a lot of pressure. The idea that couple of minutes can unquestioningly define his entire character is clearly nonsense. I don't think he'd be right for them though. Surely they want someone with some knowledge of non league. Tommy Widdrington off the top of my head?

To be fair we haven’t heard much from Joe Kinnear in a little while…

It was pretty widely known in and around the club that he wasn’t a nice person.

FWIW, I thought his recruitment was pretty crap and the football was drab for the best part.

God knows what happened at Barrow though!

The idiot at the top was recorded just before Slades left iirc (possibly before the Luton or Cheltenham game)
