I can clearly remember him kicking the ball off the line about the only time Batchy was beaten. That was one of the most one sided tranversities  of justice I have ever witnessed. We were battered for 90 minutes - before Wilkinson scored that one. Kept very quiet in the main stand full of scousers when we scored. UTM

I believe he suffered from dementia so it looks as if this disease has captured another footballer. You can please some of the forumites some of the time but not all the forumites all of the time

RIP When Leeds trainer Les Cocker was once told Norman Hunter had broken a leg, he asked: “Whose is it?”

(To be fair, breaking news on a Sunday, maybe wait to see if the club put something out today, Monday.) Chris Nicholl was a key member of the side when I was mascot in 84. Kevin Moore rejoined him at Southampton which, together with me having grandparents down there made them my top tier side as a kid! There were a few grimsby links around then: hobson, Cockerill etc. I remember Chris being one of the tallest players I'd ever seen, though that may be due to me being v.small.  Part of probably the greatest era of N.Ireland International football too. Quality player, sad loss. RIP. #newera;   New owners, new approach;  'we bought Grimsby Town to help renew the place we love'   Join the Trust, get involved: UP THE MARINERS!

Yes, saddening really especially when you think about everything he gave us. Genuinely not having a pop at the club over this for the sake of it but I think it’s the least the club could do and he deserves better. Up The Mariners!
