To cheer us up in a time of doom...

Were people genuinly suggesting that our board would've considered Buckle to come back in?

They wouldn't have approached him if they were a group of failing alcoholics and he had his own chain of off-licences. When he left, although the timing was terrible, the board hardly put up much of a fight to keep him, in fact I think one of the consortium offered to drive him to Rovers!!!

Just had a look at the Aldershot forum and they seem to be of the opinion that Paul Buckle was at the game last night. Don't know whether anyone can confirm this, but that would certainly have got the rumours flying on here if he had of been spotted ... as it is, with the sacking of Dean Holdsworth today, there are some on their forum suggesting he may be lined up as a replacement? Can't see that myself, I would have thought a return for ex boss Gary Waddock wold be far more likely.

Has Buckle's CV once again found it's way into the main office at Swindon Town, maybe.

Well Buckle played for Aldershot years ago as well so it wouldn't be beyond the realms of possibility for him to apply.
