I remembering him scoring for Bradford against us  at BP and didn't celebrate the goal, so he clearly had some respect and affection for the club, hope he gets a good ovation tomorrow.

I interviewed Boulding after he left us the first time (he'd also left Villa and was on loan at Sheff Utd I think).

He spoke very highly of Grimsby Town and obviously appreciated that it was us that gave him his big chance after he left Mansfield. Given that he came into the professional game relatively late, he was keen to move on up as fast as he could, hence why he left for Villa when the opportunity arose.

He also said that he intended to return if things never worked out for him at the highest level - which they didn't. True to his word, he came back and stuck plenty away before he was sold to Barnsley.

He also spoke highly of Paul Wilkinson. He brought his game on leaps and bounds in that first season with us, which got him that move to Villa.

Boulding's a really nice bloke. Very down to earth, very honest - and pretty quiet, for a footballer.

What a fantastic few minutes watch!  We played some great football back then and Bouldings pace was electric, and boy, could he finish!  So, who was the manager at that time, old age shortens my memory?

Quoted from Tommy
Some cracking goals in there. More headers than i remember him scoring too.

Also funny to see the Burnley game where Gazza played at BP and there's a shot showing everyone wearing the red Conoco Stadium caps.


That made me smile as well.

By the way, where are we with the Conoco Stadium?

Looking back on some of those finishes. I believe he was GTFC’s answer to Thierry Henry! 😄

Very exciting player on his day.

Slightly further on than we are with Peaks Parkway.

Quick Mick was ace. Tennis pun intended.


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.
