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.

Clee Town had been on an upward trend for 5 years before they arrrived knocking on automatic promotion door  then hardly won a game in three months under their tenure. Great shame but well done in recognising it’s not working and moving on. Well run club with good support.

Maybe, just maybe, they'd reached their peak. The thing about upward trajectories is they are invariably followed by a downward trajectory. Anyway intercourse 'em.




And when you fall back into the mud it hurts a lot.
No! None of it was true, none of those things we thought we could see existed at all.
All that was really there was still more misery

I think you could be right perhaps it’s gone as far as it can go. Grimsby boro are out performing them on a very low budget which I’d assume is nothing like clees ,s budget

My understanding is that Clee Town had seen some serious investment and were/are paying some decent wages, may be not enough to live on but certainly more than enough to supplement other salaries etc.

As you say, perhaps it’s reached its peak. I remember when there were times people made silly comments about them catching up GTFC when we first dropped out the league. It’s no secret how badly run GTFC were but we were never in danger of being caught up by a very expensive Sunday league team.

Fair play, they do loads of stuff for kids and they get some interest, it’s not for me but I don’t begrudge them anything. I guess even at that level, managers come and go…
