Hi All,

This Thursday we welcome Tommy Widdrington to the pod to chat about his time at Town plus his playing and now managerial career.

If you have any questions for a member of the ‘98 double winning squad and current Aldershot Town Manager please add them to the below link. Please remember to add your name to your question!

We always try get through as many questions as we can however it’s not always possible due to time constraints. So if you see a question you like please give it a vote so we can see the ones most people want asked. Inevitably we’ve already had one about the vacant Town role 😂

https://app.sli.do/event/tv5V8paKXAezLHZejxWssv/live/questions

The show will be live on YouTube or available to download after.

The move saw him reunite with now Aldershot manager, Tommy Widdrington, who had brought the goalkeeper to Bristol Rovers in his previous Director of Football role.

1)tell us more about this role, now the chair has said it's an option for us in the future.

2) obviously being happy at Aldershot you're not in the least bit interested in the Gy job, so as an impartial observer , could you tell us the plusses n minuses of the job at BP?

Wouldn't say no to him coming here.


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 obviously wants the job. Great way to get yourself in the thoughts of the owners

When Tommy was at the club he was my favourite player! I had a town shirt with his name and number on the back.
It was my pride and joy until my brother borrowed it for PE at school and lost it. I’ve never forgiven him and I’ve not let him live it down. male masturbator!!
(my brother not Tommy).

To be completely fair to him, we organised this pre Hurst leaving.

I wouldn't be disappointed with him at GTFC

Did a really good job at Kings Lynn - very unlucky not to get promoted season before last

Headhunted by Aldershot who have been down bottom end of NL for a number of years - currently lying 7th

Former player who has great affinity with the club

Rather him - youngish and on the up - than a has been merry-go-round manager

Think he's a North East lad originally so if he fancied the job here location unlikely to be an issue?
