Bris Red Posted August 31, 2021 Report Share Posted August 31, 2021 So since 2014 he has been at Wigan, MK dons, Aberdeen, Bury, Mansfield, Newport County and now the might Tranmere Rovers.. undoubtedly he has made millions of £ from the game but christ what a dire career he has had by and large since leaving us. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh Louie louie Posted September 2, 2021 Report Share Posted September 2, 2021 Got a class hat trick in the first game, i saw him play. Up against a decent defence too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phileas Fogg Posted September 2, 2021 Report Share Posted September 2, 2021 (edited) Should, and probably would, have been a prem player if it wasn’t for that injury. Could easily see him being the same sort of level as Callum Wilson or someone like that.

I have a lot of time for Nicky Maynard. Many players in his position might have called it a day but he has kept going in the lower divisions. I think that’s fantastic and it’s a shame more players don’t do it. Far from him having had a dire career, I have huge respect to him for not chucking the towel in. 5 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That 2009/10 season he really was on a level where he should have gone to higher things, the injury the following season unforuantely he was never the same. Always loved his goal v Newcastle at home when I think Millen was in charge? He cut in from the left hand side? Then Keith Curled it in.

Mr Popodopolous Posted September 2, 2021 Report Share Posted September 2, 2021 What a player he looked at one point- my Tranmere mate will probably be fairly happy at this signing though he's definitely past his best. Could either have had if both fit at the same time... Brooker and Maynard partnership- when strike pairs were more commonplace, think that could have worked very well if both fit and consistently in the side. Or Maynard in a fluid front 3, wider but able to drift in- or central able to drift out- could have had Sproule-Maynard-McIndoe? Or varied other combinations, Maynard-Trundle-Sproule OR McIndoe depending...with Noble and 2 CM either side, again perm from a few. Maynard in a freer wide forward role, Trundle wide forward and Brooker central? Imagine Maynard in our 2007/08 side, would we have got those extra few goals and perhaps top 2? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Selred Posted August 5, 2022 Report Share Posted August 5, 2022 Just signed Nicky Maynard, who are now promoted to the Northern Premier League (tier 7). Looking at their squad, they also have Neil Danns playing for them, who scored 20 odd goals from midfield last season! Very classy player, enjoyed him in his brief stint here.

Yes rated Neil Danns - from what I can remember we wanted to sign him permanently but he wanted to remain I'm the North West. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
