Rik, this statement from people frustrates me as one of the best, if not the best, wingers of modern times had less meat on his bones than a starving sparrow....Ryan Giggs!!!


If you bulk up, you get slower. Long may he continue to stay as he is.

Agree with Northbank and Heisenberg.

He doesn't need to bulk up, it'd be un-natural if he did and he would lose part of the physical make-up that contributes to the player he is.

Hmm! did Gilbert and Boylen need to beef up to be the good players that they were


Diddy certainly didn’t. He was built like a barrel anyway. What a player, if only he were around now 😢

Quoted from Rik e B
Wright was a great outlet for us, let's not start attacking yet another first year pro for being 'too lightweight'. He'll bulk up in time, people develop at different rates.

I fully expected him to force himself into being one of the first names on the team sheet, the opposition couldn't handle him and cynically wiped him out. Its not his fault they dirty cheats!

Even closer to home ( I know.... going back a while ) ..........   Paul Emson

He never really bulked out but played with plenty of desire....

You can also name Bonetti, Gary Childs, Dave Smith, Kevin Donavan and Tony Ford among others that are slight in build and yet were effective wingers for us in the past. Theres probably many more but in my lifetime these ones stick out for me as well as Dave Gilbert, who was at the time my favourite town player

Dave Gilbert was in no way a slightly built player!

Quoted from denni266


The club seem to be very coy over Wrights injury. but to be honest i dont think he is the long term answer to anything realy.. too slight and easy to take out the game and be put back on the sick bench again


Look how we've been doing since hes ben out!!!


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.

I get what you all are saying, for the record when I said bulk up I meant man up, as in grow into a more manly frame but thought 'man up' sounded wrong.

It wasn't a dig at you Rik, it's a statement I heard spouted about and annoys me...he's 21/22 and probably his natural frame is now what it'll always be...if he puts a few pounds of muscle on it'll possible be detrimental to his pace, what he needs to do is get wise to the fouls, see them before he gets clattered and that will only come with experience...
