I've no time for him after he wanted all that money to play in John Mcdermott's testimonial. May be an Italian thing, but it didn't sit well with me. And I bet he wasn't listening to Brian Laws when he got smacked round the chops!

I love this phrase, such a classic journalistic cliche, but basically true  

“Nearly 200 miles north of Wembley, upon England’s east coast, lies Blundell Park, the ramshackle home of Grimsby Town FC. The weather-beaten stands, all of differing vintage and design, perennially take the force of gales whipping in from the North Sea. It’s full of character, but it’s a pretty inhospitable place. It’s the kind of place that even Stoke wouldn’t fancy on a cold Tuesday night.”

What a player
Ivano Ivano Ivano


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.

Was there a public kiss and make up in the centre circle between Brian and Ivano?

A very awkward staged handshake, perhaps?

Yeah. Before the West Ham replay but it was just for show. At least on Ivano's part. He went on to launch a lawsuit.


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.

Reminds me of the recent Operation Promotion....at the time of Ivano signing most local pubs had name cards running for the Ivano fund and fund raising evenings ongoing.
My lad was recently gifted a Bonetti shirt which was won in a pub raffle back then.

Before both of those there was similar for Joe Waters as well....

We are a good bunch when we get the inspiration.  UTM

I was only a young mariner at the time but I was utterly captivated by Ivano. Ivano,Oster and Donovan for me as players that were really exciting to watch.
