Could still have been him and he's chosen another League club over the charming and quaint BananaDrama league.

Not to mention the fact that it is another League club around 60 miles from Kingsmeadow.

You'd think he'd be really keen to join a non-league team situated 200 miles north of his previous club.

It makes me laugh when people say "he can't get in a struggling league 2 side" or "his goal scoring record isn't great" when the player is playing at a higher level.

If the player was doing either of the above would there be any chance of them coming here?

Agreed terms was the phrase used. Now waiting on the player.


'Now waiting on the player' seems like we have been hanging about for whoever it is to make up his mind for a few days now.
IMO thats to long, not committed so tell him to intercourse off now.  


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.

There are two possible answers to that point.

1. go for players who are doing exceptionally well in the league below or

2. cough up the cash to get someone half decent from L2

Before we get into the 'Grimsby is at the end of the world and why would anyone south of Watford come here and .....' has anyone been to Fleetwood recently? Now that IS at the end of the world. Its football team just happened to get somebody with cash to spend and they spent it and look where they are now. Maybe our owner hasn't got that sort of cash but he says we have a good budget so let's spend it attracting some quality and not yet another York City reserve.
