History repeats for Buckley22 August 2000Two games into the season and the longest standing Albion manager of the decade has been sacked. Not from Albion, of course - they've been though another four managers since giving him the chop - but from Grimsby Town. We've not heard the detailed reasons for the sacking yet - but maybe it's got something to do with his habit of buying players from his old clubs - which, given that one of them was the club he was already at, meant that a series of Albion players left the Midlands for the delights of Cleethorpes (Groves, Coldicott, Donovan, Ashcroft and Raven all played for Albion under Buckley and ended up with him in Grimsby). Maybe Raven was the last straw - the latest player to move between the two clubs was given the runaround in his first game there. Or maybe we're just idly speculating...
