Came in with some expectation and left rather forgettable. Just sort of ran around a lot looking like Bambi on ice and that's about it. Reading had him on loan before us and made a six-figure offer that was rejected by Chelsea who wanted a million for him, so we got him on loan. Probably wish they took that offer as he was soon released. Had a bunch of trials and some short stays but ended up in non league where he gained a bit of a rep for being violent. Think he's had quite a few bans for attacking opponents and instigating fights.

Tbh the only things I recall are his falling over to win a penalty and his terrible 90's haircut.

Man he was awful. When we played palace we both had Chelsea loanees. We got Nicholls and they got Mikkel Forsell.
And the winner is .......

Muscat did Nicholls with a punch in the kidneys front of the dugouts, as Abdul says.  Absolutely blatant and in front of both the ref and linesman, seem to think he didn't even get booked.

I'm listening to a few of the Undr The Cosh Podcasts at the minute (quite good and I'd recommend).  Just on the Paddy Kenny one at the minute and he spoke err very highly of Muscat

Nicholls was terrible.  Summed up that end of Buckley Mk II era.  Lightweight, ineffectual....a footnote really.  Scored against Man Utd though, lovely little lob I think.

Muscat was a horrible twit who definitely did Nicholls, as for Nicholls definitely underwhelming.

Nicholls had a very arrogant look think he thought he was much too good to be playing for a team such as Grimsby.


Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day,teach a man to fish and you give him an excuse for him to escape from the wife and kids for the weekend and drink lots of beer.

Abdul may be talking about a separate incident, but Muscat definitely did Boulding. About a minute in:

Christ, don't remember seeing that before.

In a way it's reassuring to see that the standard of refereeing hasn't actually got worse, it's exactly the same!

Quoted from friskneymariner
The only thing he did for us was getting his face in the way of Kevin Muscat's elbow.


Didn’t every player around that time?


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.

Quoted from ex-merseymariner
I remember us getting 2 strikers from Chelsea in that era.

Livingstone   big  strong physical aggressive hard working
And Nicholls ..  the opposite in most of those


Wasn’t Freemo Flatts on loan from Chelsea too?
