Resurecting an old thread...now the season is over player nominations are being requested for Room 101. Succesful nominations will be struck from the records of GTFC. I reserve the right to be judge and jury on players being accepted.

Nominate away..

Brodie

Gunning

Junior Mendes

Peter Beagrie

Martin But......... can't be bothered to finish his name.  ;)

Mickael Antoine-Currier.

Jimmy Gilligan

Rhys wilmott and Murray jones

Jamie Clarke

John Fenty!!

Quoted from AdamHaddock

Brodie

not a chance...one of the ultimate pantomime villains....spawned one of my favourite songs of the modern era and livened up debate between fans, without him our history would be less colourful ... not going in.

Quoted from horsforthmariner

Gunning

Not only was he completely useless but his time here coincided with the Bignot Triangle, that mysterious area of our history where everything that entered disappeared.
However...he had a "mad" reputation and who could forget his cheeky photoshoot walk on to camera ...

nah , who am i trying to kid...he's straight into Room 101.

Quoted from promotion plaice

Junior Mendes

A GTFC history without Junior's array of colourful boots ?  Such a dull world without him...not going in.

Quoted from Cambs Mariner

Peter Beagrie

Hmmm....not so simple this one...
without doubt a classy player...could tie a snake in knots with his twists and turns....despite his passing years...but former Scunny bunny which would be tempting enough reason on its own....

However...that moment...still regularly referenced when any player fcks about too much in our own area....he set the yardstick for shooting yourself in the foot and therefore he has an important place in our records and cannot go in.

Quoted from ginnywings

Martin But......... can't be bothered to finish his name.  ;)

another who must stay in for all the wrong reasons....lessons learnt on ...buying ageing players 3-4 seasons too late, allowing players to dictate their own terms   things which should never be forgotten......
plus he scored in a memorable away day at the old Morecambe ground which gave me and my lad great memories....not going in.

Quoted from Les Brechin

Mickael Antoine-Currier.

tempted to keep out, not for anything he did for us in anyway but for the fact that he was so bad here that when he went to Scotland and started scoring plenty he gave us a source of amusement.....but...nah...not enough....he is in room 101.

Quoted from HertsGTFC

Jimmy Gilligan

No. Long standing record transfer fee and for that alone he has to remain on the records. £100,000, 30+ years ago ...i think our entire squad now cost less than that.

Not going in.

I'll try again then. Lee Ridley.

Quoted from WOZOFGRIMSBY

Rhys wilmott and Murray jones

Rhys Wilmott....straight in ..

Murray Jones ....Bambi....not very good at all.....but... 3 goals in 28 is virtually "Messie esque" compared to the current strikers....also another vital club lesson....dont buy a striker based on him playing one good game against you....vital mistake that should not be forgotten...not going in.

Quoted from wigworld

Jamie Clarke

Jamie Clarke.....well...instantly forgettable i will give you that....from the moment i saw him run out in pre season friendly at Gainsborough i was worried and wanted him to go into Room 101 then....
however....he did have John McDermotts boots to fill so was on a hiding to nothing from the off , so maybe some leniency is called for...

just checked some stats...74 games !!  Jeez.... and i cant remember any stand out moments....he is going into Room 101

Quoted from Cloudy

John Fenty!!

Chairmens Challenge players are ineligible   ;)

Quoted from ginnywings

I'll try again then. Lee Ridley.

Hmmm...just his facial similarity to Sam Dingle off of Emmerdale makes me laugh at 7pm throughout the week which is a joy i wouldnt have if we hadnt have signed him...however....our first left back in non League in a completely forgettable first season cancels that out....

but...he was part of the team that finished in our lowest position and therefore is of historical importance and therefore cant go in.

You're a tough judge. I shall sleep on it and try harder tomorrow.

I'm sure Murray Jones is already in, I have no idea who he is!  :B

Anthony Straker

Anthony Church

Straker straight into Room 101...

Anthony Church....very tempting...didnt produce here at all despite being hotly tipped as the best prospect out of those that followed Hurst and Shouty....so for his actual GTFC record it looks a no brainer....however i seem to think that AC's failure had more than something to do with a certain Craig Disley being brought in.....so we have to thank AC for being useless really as without him Dizzly Rascal may never had pulled on the black and white.  AC we salute you and not going in.

Quoted from Les Brechin

Trevor Slack

He was up there with Vance Warner as worst centre back I've seen playing for Town

Quoted from Abdul19

James Lawson

Absolutley straight in based on the fact i had t look him up .

Quoted from Teesknees

Ron Wigg

before my time..just...however roughly a 1 in 3 goal per game average....not going in.

Quoted from livvo

Nick (oh my god what's he doing now) Colgan.

Unfortunately the keeper in the side that went out of the league therefore significant part of our history...lest we forget...not going in.

Wales last resort, Anthony Williams.

Adam Buckley

Quoted from Tom13

Luke McCarthy, Michael Rankine, Dave Mulligan.

Rankine ....in
McCarthy ...in

Mulligan....hmmm...groan worthy right back treading that too familiar Scunny reject path to our door...for his input to GTFC i would pull the handle on the trap door instantly but...2010 World Cup....Dave Mulligan..Town reject... turns out for New Zealand giving us all something to laugh about whilst England capitulated.   Not going in

Quoted from TwoLeftFeet

Adam 'cheesy chip's' Proudlock

No....a landmark player in that "bought him too late" category...like Butler, Peacock etc....plus the fact he has a recognised AKA of cheesy chips giving an indication of his importance...a 1 in 3 goal per game ratio ....and...a hat trick against the Gimps ????  not a chance of him going in.

Quoted from GtfcGarner

Tommy Forecast - he still gives me nightmares

Unfortunately without Tommy then some one else would have to inherit the "worst ever" keeper title...too important to go in for that reason.

Lewis Gobern and Mark Hudson

Danny Carlton

Quoted from Marinerdan

Menno Willems

part of the famous Lenny Lawrence League of Nations and for me a particular favourite...i actually liked Menno...cracking left foot , technically neat....so i am tempted to say no..
but...i guess...as he was part of the League of Nations that realistically bankrupted us when the TV money didnt show up, leading to a certain someone "loaning" the club some monies and the subsequent downward spiral.....then i suppose if he never actually existed in our history then....

no..i cant..too much significant stuff would be lost if he vanished from the records..not going in.

Quoted from Mariner56

Jake Kean

No...to stand as a reminder of the incompetence of Slade...bringing in a loan keeper worse than the back up keeper that he brought into the club .

Gordon Walker.

Quoted from webbit

Serge Makofo

Serge....the subject of a very interesting who dunnit style episode in our history .....fans being very excited at the prospect of signing a player that shone during previous visits of Kettering, especially the away day witnessed by the Smurfs....only for rumours quickly following his signing that Neil Woods  had actually signed the wrong player by mistake !!
On his day unpredictably average other days unpredictably terrible....however he has become the yard stick for future players such as Tom Bolarinwa whose similar unpredictability earns the "he's the new Serge" title.  Not ging in.

Quoted from Mariner56

Terry Curran

Past it and pretty useless by the time he played for us.

Definately ....to rid him from our history would be a pleasure...should never have signed him.  Into Room 101 with a shove.

Hamish Somethingorother

That New Zealand striker we got a work permit for, but who I don't think even made the bench before being released.

Quoted from penrith mariner

Scott McGarvey

haha...where would football in general be if a small club cant announce every once in a while say  " Former Manchester United Player Signs"  where's the romance going to come from ?
The fact we signed him from Carlisle shouldnt fog history and the fact he scored around 1 in 4 cant be overlooked despite the general malaise in the support...also ...he was a bit popstar wasnt he golden permed locks & a Porsche..Grimsby in 1987 ??

Not going in.

Quoted from Balthazar Bullitt

Hamish Somethingorother

That New Zealand striker we got a work permit for, but who I don't think even made the bench before being released.

Hamish Watson? I had no idea who he was except that he appeared in the team in one of the FM games and was quite good. Wiki seems to think he played 4 times for us.

Quoted from Tom13

Danny Carlton

Bit unfair.was only just coming back from a bad injury and as i recall he put a shift in

Quoted from Les Brechin

Trevor Slack

my initial thought was...before my time Les .... however 1987 ?!?! definatley my time but i cannot recall him at all showing that he is deservedly going into Room 101.

Quoted from forza ivano

Anthony straker
James berrett

Tommy forecast
Matt Heywood

Paul Dixon
Danny Boshell
Lawson from Southend
Scott mcgarbage

Some already dealt with....
James Berrett ....well...contraversial i am sure but i am afraid he stays out...has become the benchmark all future midfielders will be compared to, he's a bit like the Plimsoll Line..go beyond it and you are sinking fast....The Berrett Line....you know you are in trouble if a player doesnt reach it.
Matt Heywood ..sadly part of the proof that Buckley 3 was a mistake, also as recent as this season, some 20 yrs after his arrival,  the "Heywood Theory" has been suggested for such  players as Berrett, Vernon, Kelly when it comes to voting for player of the year.  A 20 yr legacy cant go io Room 101.
Hope - into Room 101.
Paul Dixon - yes please into Room 101.
Danny Boshell ...realistically too long a serving player to go in, nearly 100 games so wiping his record could be dangerous despite him being a bit marmite..mind you he who infamously ruined our day out against MK Dons and gave the MK Dons their first piece of "history"....he's in Room 101 for that alone.
Lawson....took some finding but weighing in at around 20 minutes on loan he hardly qualifies as existing in the first place so hardky worth opening the door for...plus he may well appear in an obscure pointless quiz answer if we keep him out

Quoted from moosey_club

my initial thought was...before my time Les .... however 1987 ?!?! definatley my time but i cannot recall him at all showing that he is deservedly going into Room 101.

It was the Bobby Roberts 87/88 relegation season. Probably one of the worst defenders to ever don the black and white shirt.

I missed that Wembley game as I was in hospital but I also have a Danny Boshell/MK Dons memory but a far better one. Scoring the winner with a 25 yarder when we beat them 2-1 at The National Hockey Stadium.

Quoted from MeanwoodMariner

Wales last resort, Anthony Williams.

Jon 'Pace to burn' Thorrington

My favourte thing about Anthony Williams is what you have mentioned, his own song......luckily for you Tommy Forecast has the worst keeper mantle already so there really isnt anything to keep AW from going into Room 101.

Jon Thorrington....despite his minimal impact on the pitch he did bring a slight bit of razamataz with his USA connection...also my son sometimes raises his name with a snigger when we mention "pacey wingers" ...not going in.

Jude Stirling.

To some..Jesus....to others a promising winger...to others a theiving tw@t ....to me....someone who blew his chance for a life in professional football and as a fan who would have loved to have that chance then the tosspot is going into Room 101.

Quoted from Southwark Mariner

Lewis Gobern and Mark Hudson

Hudson...straight in...his previous position of benchmarking midfielders now being usurped by Berrett so he can go into Room 101

Lewis "glass ankles" Gobern.......i went all the way to Stirling to watch him and the new look "conference" squad Woods had assembled....at the time both he and Adameno represented hope that we were going away from the journeyman footballer of the Conlon mode and looking for younger hungrier players with a promise of pace and guile....
neither worked out, just as Woods ultimately didnt.....however....their signings are still symbolic of that "hope" that we might just be onto the next best thing,  as much as Hearn & Bogle later where...if we dont have hope we have little...not going into Room 101

Didn't Lewis Gobern alledgedly pull a knife on Lee Ridley in a training room bust-up? Might cause some disharmony in Room 101 if you threw them both in.

Any space left for Louise Soares?

Quoted from tanga_the_indestructible

The most incompetent striker ever to play for Grimsby.

If that is your reason then unfortunately he wont be going in ....i have a particular favourite of my own for that title which cannot be beaten IMO....an early Buckley signing if anyone would like to have a stab ?

Chima Okorie?

Quoted from mariner83

Jamie Green

i dont think so....firstly he looked promising, dislodged the terrible Ridley and its one of those "what if" moments if it wasnt for his injury could have been a good signing....but even more significantly...without his injury we wouldnt have moved for Townsend and had a glimpse of real quality....not going in.

and of course our love hate relationship with him which resulted in the recycled Chuck Norris jokes thread for Elding on here. ..not going in.

Quoted from Meza

Haha ok bit pointless 😋

How about Gary Harkins did ef all at town but always saw his name popup on the vidi printer for Scottish clubs

Loved Gary Harkins.....one of those players who had the skill and vision but rarely showed it....and soon fell foul of the returning Buckley mid way through his one season with us and released....soon after starred for Partick Thistle, scored a few, picked up player of the year IIRC....
my overriding memory of him was pre season watching him from the upper smiths and thinking...yes this guy looks a footballer.....so for letting me down so badly Gary ....you are going into Room 101.

Very unfair on jami e green he was a Good little player.
I think Gary Harkins could go as i seem to remember him being distinctly rotund despite being only 21

By Christ we've had to put up with some shiite haven't we? Ps has anyone nominated Kelly yet?

Did have the pleasure of seeing him score his goal away at Pompey....but even that rarity of a pleasure cant turn around his otherwise uneventful career with us....mind you...if he didnt exist he couldnt have then gone onto Lincoln and have been as unequally unimpressive for them ....but he is a former Scunny bunny too....so he is into Room 101.

Quoted from livosnose

Danny Carlton ? Gary Silk ?

Mr Carlton done elsewhere....

Gary Silk ....the no nonsense ginger ninja right back.....one of the H&S early signings....injuries and the emergence of Bradley Wood limiting his appearances and career....i feel sorry for many of the right backs at our club as for my generation none will ever meet Macca's standard...is that Gary Silks fault ? Does he deserve to go into Room 101 just for that....?? ...despite him being a standard average right back he did give us some sharp intake of breath moments when he went flying into challenges and following the hapless relegation seasons a player with bite was welcome....so cant send him in.

Quoted from Grantley

Greg Fleming and Jonathan Hedge.

Hardly worth the effort as neither really featured.

Quoted from diehardmariner

Mark Flatts

and rob us of the Chinese whispers that did the rounds when he signed ....

"have you heard, we have signed Stan Collymore and David Platt  ....  Oh...who ?  Tony Gallimore and Mark Flatts "  ...so for that he is not going in.

Quoted from Numanoid

Steve stout

Steve Stoutt
1 in every 2 goal average ... probably unfortunate to be around with the likes of Alexander, O'Kelly , North ....also he cant go in as there was someone else in that years squad who was far far worse....not going in.

Simon Heslop, Malvin Kamara, Anthony Pulis.

Quoted from moosey_club

Hardly worth the effort as neither really featured.

I seem to think that Greg Fleming was good when called upon, and was never on the losing side for us? Either way, would be harsh to put him in. Tommy Forecast, on the other hand, well.....

Read an article about him the other day; he’s now the General Manager of Los Angeles FC and doing pretty well for himself.

Quoted from Tom13

Simon Heslop, Malvin Kamara, Anthony Pulis.

dont think i could argue with any of those.....the only glimmer for Pulis was that he was that he was supposed to be the signalling of a new Stoke association between Buckley & Pulis wasnt he ? However in was Paterson who stole the headlines and the glory....Pulis didnt make half the impact so yes..he can join them in Room 101 too.

Quoted from Kris2

Ian Hamilton, Mark Nicholls

Ian Hamilton....loan player who scored in his short stay....cant throw him in as he brought a goal....

Mark Nicholls ....city slicker from Chelsea .....very disappointing signing given he had played a notable amount of games for Premier League Chelsea just a few seasons before.....however i think there is something bigger going on here that should save him from going to oblivion...he kind of signifies how damaging the Premier League was to young homegrown talent at that time.....just as he was coming through their ranks and getting a chance Ruud Gullit takes command and imports masses of foreign players quashing the dreams of many young players which is still felt today.....should stay out as a beacon of all that is wrong with the PL.

Bryan Hughes, Conor Henderson.

We have had an inordinate amount of duff midfielders over the years. We also had someone for about ten minutes who started life at Manure, when Hurst was manager. Can't remember his name of course.

Pulis was signed in the same few days as Paterson yeah, and also Peter Till in his initial loan spell - I seem to remember Pulis' career fading big time after us, no idea where he went!

Ryan Jennings was another Hurst nobody.

I can't remember many of these players, so they've already been consigned to my personal Room 101.

Conor Henderson ...would like to keep him out despite his less than average record....stands as a symbol of Paul Hurst's general loan player philosophy, bring a player in and then virtually never play them despite the promise that they look better than the regular players.  Not going in.

Numanoid , if there was a prize you would have just won it !!!  (100)(100)(100)  ... Tony Caldwell...my all time favourite vague GTFC player.... 1 and a bit appearances into his career he was deemed not worthy by Buckley ..who had just signed him !!!  Never will my memory of him fade...and although i thank you for the nomination i am not sending him in...every time i hear Buckley lamenting our play during commentary, moaning at the strikers movement or their lack of goal threat ...i always think " yes Alan, they're no Tony Caldwell are they?"  ;D ...that minor amusement is important to me so i cant get rid.

Mick Halsall....gonna keep him out too as looks don't count as qualification .

John Luckic

Josh Magennis

David Shearer


Chris Evans

and his useless Welsh mate Llewllyn

Josh Magennis

both done already ....keep up

David Shearer


Chris Evans

and his useless Welsh mate Llewllyn

Yes....never heard of him so can't judge.....and  Llewllyn....
Chris LLewllyn...at a BBQ with him once.....i seem to remember his Mrs would be worth saving.....but not him.....2 out of 3 aint bad.

Shearer  was the sub the home fans would chant for but Buckley wouldnt bring on and Evans was the young lad Newell brought in think he scored 1 goal off his bum from a keeper clearance ....might have got his first name wrong

Chris Jones wasn't it?

Quoted from AdamHaddock

Chris Jones wasn't it?

Yes and he was terrible.

Chris Jones wasn't it?

That was it sorry knew it was a welsh name ......I am getting old

Jermaine Palmer

Chris Bolder

Paul Holsgrove

Ian Hamilton

Andy Love

Andy Love.  Damn, I'd forgotten about our 'Uncle Fester' look-a-like keeper.  Might be age and memory but I don't recall him being terrible.

Jermaine Palmer ... in
Chris Bolder .... one of those the fans held out some hope for, wasnt used much but like Hockless around the same time we would have liked to have seen more..not going in.
Paul Holsgrove...in
Ian Hamilton already done
Andy Love....bit of a cult figure back in the day...unlucky really to be here under Crichton, Davidson, Pearcey and Coyne which understandably limited his chances...not going in.

Don't think he got much of a look in. Think he had that game in goal away at Watford when we beat them 3-0. The night when even Craig Shakespeare scored.

Paul Crichton era so no dishonour being kept out of the side in those days.

Sean McAllister?

Chris Thompson
Chris Seagrave
Both scousers I believe ,in fact Thompson was quite prolific for Liverpool reserves

Sean McAllister is a really weird one.I'm struggling to think of anyone else like him.obviously a good player .according to him he was fit n didn't  miss training for months.looked excellent at co v when I saw him .No rumours of him being a disruptive influence yet never played.

Sean McAllister?

Absolutely....almost the ultimate entry..........two seasons of wasted money, contract, kit , sponsors, digs and the wasted hope of supporters who were looking for someone to oust Berrett.  Going in.

Chris Thompson
Chris Seagrave

Thompson seemed to think he wasnt that bad...got a goal in his brief appearances.....hmmm...not going in.

Seagrave....well..he played half a season in a team that finished tenth in Old Money Div 2 (Championship for our younger readers) ....not going in.
