I wonder how managers in lower divisions manage to get a mortgage. Do they have Trumps accountants ?

Always was going to be a bit of a risk on both parts.

Spent his entire career in top flight football across a number of countries, and even as a manager I think he only ever managed in the Premier League, so thought it was a bit of a risk to drop down to League Two where there isn't much money to spend, he's not familiar with the clubs, the players and the opposition, if it went wrong (which it has) there was always that risk that it may kill his career.

I'd be very surprised if we ever see him in the top flight or anywhere near it again.

A mate of mine at school had this goal in the form of one of those little animated flip books. In the days long before mobile phones etc. the idea of being able to slyly watch football under the classroom table was very novel to a 9-year old me. Kids these days don’t know they’re born.

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.

He played 29 times for Blackburn in their 2000/01 First Division promotion season whilst also managing the Wales national team. I seem to remember he scored against us live on Sky Sports late in the season in a game where Danny Coyne made probably his only serious mistake during his time at Town letting in a tame shot.

No PH on either list.


If the football is bad you can always watch the gulls.

I think the Cowley brothers will end up at Bradford or Gillingham, We'll just have to wait and see.
