I can think, off the top of my head, of 4 plus there is, at least 1, who is still at the club and must be "over the moon" that Buckle has left to manage a "Bigger" team.
I had always liked Buckle and, IMHO, has done a decent job for TUFC, but his recent actions have left me very angry, the way he went to BR BEFORE the play off semi's against the Shrews was out of order and, I think, just about sums up his character. Me, Me Me. One can't help but look at Eddie Howe. He left Ballmouth with his dignity intact and is still "loved, and respected, by a majority of Ballmouth fans.
Thats because he did it the right way and didn't bite the hand that feed him.
Sorry, I know I am going over old ground, and we have to move on so Rant over (For the time being) o:)
Have to say that I don't agree with that. Yeah, Buckle had a lot of disagreements with players, but, how many have ended up in the same league or higher? The only one I can think of would be Matt Green, but he's absolute shite.
I think you could see that a lot of the players wanted to play for Buckle, and while he made the wrong decisions tactically in games, he got some huge decisions right too (Hargreaves, Sills, Woods etc) that he was all criticised for, a lot. Still hate him as much as the next person though
As for Mansell, can't see Manse leaving unless he is pushed out. Same with Nicho, I think they've grown to love the club as much as we all do, and I can see both of them finishing their careers here.
