I liked him when here, not sure whether he would have fit what we're trying to do currently but I wouldn't have considered him an awful signing. A little surprised he's ended up down the road though. With the position Scunny seem to be in overall it doesn't strike me as a shrewd move for the player.

He needs a way back in after injuries and getting released.

Very limited and slow on the ball, nearly always needing an extra touch to get it under control and never seeming comfortable in possession. Got in to good goal scoring records but would be very disappointed if our midfielders this season weren't a significant upgrade on him.

Snakebite drinker Posts: 351 Posts Per Day: 0.17 Reputation: 79.87% Rep Score: +4 / -1 Approval: +158 Gold Stars: 5	The phrase 'flattering to deceive' springs to mind. My Lincoln mates said he was the better of all the recent ex-Imps we have had (this was last year - not 22/23 Waterfall) - Green, Waterfall, Whitehouse, etc when we seemed to go through a phase of getting them. When fit, he was a good, if unspectacular CM. I watched him, when (I may be wrong) had Glennon and I saw Whitehouse lose the ball about 7 times in 10 mins at home, while Glennon was constantly trying to win it and progress! If he can stay injury-free, a good signing for Scunny. I would like Scunny to stay in the National League, and not drop into obscurity, as Boston could do with a nice local win when they go up next season!

Then he ruptured his ACL in pre season and was out for a whole season, was never the same when he came back and seems like at FGR he's had more injury issues probably related to the bad injury he got in that pre season.

However there's a huge issue with his fitness.  Is that his third serious long term injury?  Sure he had one at Lincoln, then one with us and then the one with FGR. I liked him here when he got going in that second season.  Towards the end of the curtailed season under Holloway he looked to be nearing his best and was getting in and around the frontmen to good effect.

As injury prone, if not more, than Max Wright. Ultimately, a good enough player in non-league, but doesn't play enough

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. GOD

Stiffest player I’ve ever seen. I have a mate who works in a morgue and he often commented that Whitehouse looked like he’d come fresh from the slab. The first row in the Main Stand were given safety goggles in case his hamstrings popped. Good luck to him and other standard modern platitudes.

Decent signing for them if he can stay fit and their aim is to avoid relegation and not much more.

I thought he was OK but nothing more and was surprised when he got a move to FGR. Given his injury issues, Scunny probably the highest level you expect to see him at these days.

Decent technique but I believe he has had three ACL ruptures. I'm amazed he's even playing at all. Massive risk from Scunthorpe's point of view, hence the one year deal. Good luck to the lad, he needs some.
