He will always be a hero and good luck to the bloke but if we are to kick on we needed to sign better even if he stayed.


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.

Think we've seen the best of him already.
Harvey Cartwright on loan for a couple of seasons would be nice 👌


Think this is in the pipeline

   I think this is really disappointing news. Max Crocombe is a solid keeper who saved/earned us quite a few points in his two years and was a huge factor in promotion from the National League. He must have a pretty good offer from elsewhere, or at least be very confident of getting one. I hope he does well (unless it's another league 2 team he ends up with!).

  Having said that, he's certainly not irreplaceable, so hopefully Paul already has someone at least equally capable in mind, along with a back-up good enough to step in as needed and push for first choice himself. The transfer window just got even more interesting!

Have to assume that if PH really really wanted Max to stay, he'd have come up with an offer that was enough to entice him.  The fact that he hadn't suggests he has other options in mind.  He was decent for us and a great personality on the pitch.  Loved his cramp and his assist against Notts County - for that he'll be a legend (at least for a few years).  It feels like the next 10 days will see plenty of movement as players who have been offered new contracts decide whether or not to take them.

Quite an amicable split this one, everyone still likes each other and I don't think anyone (club, player, fans) is too heartbroken. He's been involved in some great matches and moments. He obviously feels like his life and career is elsewhere though which is fair enough, wish him all the best. I think he'll go on to have a solid career. Would be nice to see him cramping up in a World Cup at some point.

He did well last season until about Christmas time. After that his form seemed to dip, also he parried too many shots, for me, whereas he needed to hold onto a few of them. Still, I wish him well where ever he ends up.


You can please some of the forumites some of the time but not all the forumites all of the time

Offers on the table from Falkirk, Dundee and Notts county


Notts county would be a weird one ,him and Slocambe are about as the same standard as you can get .

More importantly any Bennett updates Surrey ???
