If he can turn that what he showed in the Chesterfield game on a regular basis he will be a good signing but I doubt it.
Good luck to the lad though, think he was proud to wear the shirt and gave all he could.


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.

Quoted from Rodley Mariner
Virgil Gomis and Touray Sissy are right up there for me.


You saw Touray Sisay play a game? I don't go to reserves games or games for other teams so he was a total non factor to me. The only time I saw his face was running along the promenade once with Ira Jackson.

Might turn out Joey Jones is a good move for Solihull. He showed flashes of having a footballing brain and some vision but seemed lost in the shuffle a lot of the time and made a lot of mistakes. Maybe a fresh start and a pre season with a new team will be good for him. Never looked up to much on loan with us but also had some issues with Dagenham so maybe just a bad season for him.

Did see sissay come on for us as sub in 1 game - he was really poor.

What really brought home how bad he wa s though was when we loaned him to cleethorpes town he couldn't even get in the team there!

Worst player to pull on a town shirt since Moses Ogbu.

Someone told me that when Sisay turned up to his first training session a senior pro genuinely asked the staff if he was a raffle winner.

Goal machine in the Welsh Premier...Although this is the worst standard of professional football I've known in the UK. It's like going to the local park to watch Sunday league, size of that goalie. https://youtu.be/VlULbE7KpxY

You must skip most of the drivel that’s gets posted on there then.

Ogbu couldn’t trap a bag of potatoes. 90% of his touches were backing into a player and playing the ball behind one of his teammates.

Sissay on the other hand…. A good mate plays for Clee town, and he told me all the lads there were of the opinion that he was not a professional footballer and never would be.

Ogbu left us and went to a top division Swedish team where he scored a load of goals. This got him a move to the Chinese Premier League, where he scored a load of goals and he's now playing in the top division of South Korean football.

That indicates to me (along with what I saw with my own eyes), that he's got a decent amount of ability. Never quite clicked for him with us but we were a shambles during his time at the club. It's bizarre to claim he's a poor player.

Except he was a professional player. With us.

Think he's done well to get that deal having failed to impress at two clubs who finished below Solihull in the league last season.
Perhaps a reflection of Solihull's ambitions for the new season.

Chesterfield game, once he settled in, he looked quality and the perfect partner for Holohan. After that though he seemed to get unfitter, slower and less like a footballer.

Odd one. Something in there but needs someone to get it out of him on a far, far more consistent basis.
