He was a class act when he was in charge at Kettering a few years ago.

I'm sure he'll do well for you.Good luck.

Wasn't he a player with Derby County in the 70's ?

Yep. If you want to know what the Rochdale squad will look like next season, go to the Grimsby and West Brom websites, find the players who played for him, and imagine them in the Rochdale kit. He always moves the same players around with him. He went to West Brom from Grimsby, and took half of the first team with him. When he got the sack, he went back to Grimsby, and took the players back with him. :lol:

I bet he'll take His Son from Lincoln, before He's kicked out that is, Thieving little turd. If only he could steal the Ball once in a while, instead of stealing from the Club :mad: he might of got in the Squad.

Buckley's last Job was Lincoln Manager, and he brought his Son with Him, just shows you, it's who you know.

I used to work with one of Rochdale's director's daughter - she was a stuck up cow who thought she had a god given right to everything on a plate.

ooooooh who was she then?
I hope she didnt go around saying "do you know who I am my father is a director of Rochdale football club" cause that wouldnt have got her anywhere. :lol: :D :lol:

Buckley did a good job at Grimsby

His press skills could use a little work though

Heh, though she did occasionally mention it in conversation she never used it as a 'do you know who I am' way, probably due to the fact that no one would care. Anyway, her profession was her 'do you know who I am'.

She wasn't that bad to be honest - we just weren't each others type and she probably disliked me as much as I disliked her - but she was very up herself a lot of the time.

I'll email you...
