I think you're in the right area with this. An ex team mate of his told me when he signed that neilson was a 'marmite' player for both fans and managers alike. Bizarrely he also told me that neilson doesn't actually enjoy football or the job of being a footballer. That would explain quite a lot
Something has been playing on my mind since last May and with these posts regarding Neilson, I thought I would mention it now. During the play off second leg last season, we must have been losing, maybe 1-0 or 2-1, I can't remember what the score was, but I can remember feeling miserable so we must have been losing. We were defending a free kick that meant we were setting up a wall. Neilson was next to Hannah in the wall and turned to him and said something. Hannah started laughing. I've no idea what was said but as I was feeling down myself, it struck me that these guys don't care anywhere near as much as me. It was a big game, one that we were losing, and Neilson found the time to joke around while preparing to defend a free kick. Did anyone else see it? That said, I do think Neilson is a great player that can change a game but as others have said, I'm not sure we can afford the luxury of taking a chance that he will turn up as we know he can.

Jolley is best as a central striker. Not a winger. Will be interesting to see how he fits in. Can't see Palmer or LJL getting dropped.

Can't say that I remember the incident but it must have been at 1-0 down as that was the score when Neilson was sent off.

Yes thanks Les. I might have to watch the game again to find it, not sure where I can find the full game again though.

Well he would have had a good time here if he had signed judging by all the gushing and wet undies on here 😍
|
| 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. GOD |
