I personally think it would be a mistake to give it to Shaun and Ben at this point. We’re still sitting just above relegation spots and have hit a bit of form. This goes south over next few games and two respected squad coaches are gone and it’s a larger turnover of staff required. I get the whole give them two or three more league games and see then, but what does that tell prospective applicants? Thanks for applying but we’re seeing if we don’t really need a manager, but, if we’re in the excrement in a couple of weeks can you come save our arses? I had hoped JS would have a clear recruitment plan and be transparent but the longer it goes on the more you start to wonder. Probably the single hardest job facing an owner/owners, choosing the right people to manage the side. But whoever they are, I’d like to think they’d be told early doors that they are wanted and will be backed to the hilt.


I was there, the day Bradley Wood scored a 35 yarder!

From the black and white striped shirts
To the fish in the sea
You'll hear us singing
Coz we are Grimsby.

You won't hear us crying
But you'll hear us shout
Coz we are the Grimsby
And this is our chant.......... Grimsby! Grimsby! Grimsby!

Yes and you couldn't really go through a sophisticated recruitment process then give it to someone already at the club on the basis of better results in an interim capacity. Well you could but then what is the point of Gareth Jennings, the Twenty First Group, the data analyst and anybody else they have contacted?

No doubt as time goes on they will have a succession policy but I find it very difficult to believe the caretakers will get the job at this early stage.

Sometimes, the best option is within the building, and sometimes it's not.

If Shaun and Ben are felt like being the best option, then they get my full support but I do feel that the fans would be less patient with them and much more critical of our transfer business in January.

If they do get the job permanently, they will need to get a coach or two in to take on some of the duties.

That would be exceptionally underwhelming. One below average season with Cardiff and currently managing at level 7 in the pyramid.

I think this is a bit over dramatic. His time at Cardiff didn't go too well, but his record wasn't terrible. Hornchurch are smashing their league and he currently has a 70%+ win rate. Obviously it's a relatively low level.

It's not an appointment I'd be particularly enthusiastic about but if the 21st century has told us anything, it's that appointing a manager is a complete lottery.

4 down now.
Bradford are absolutely terrible.
Notts fans singing getting sacked in the morning 🙂


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.
