Jim McNulty 13:27 - May 6 with 3458 views100notout

Lots of heroes yesterday and lots of great stories but I just wanted to say a word about Big Jim.

He's not our best player and yes he makes the odd gaff but a nicer bloke you couldn't meet.

I don't think he won any of the end of season awards - perhaps just as well because he wouldn't have been ready to collect it! He was too busy shaking hands with virtually every fan that had stayed behind and thanking them for their support.

He's the same after every game and always the last one off the pitch. Well done Jim

Genuine player and man. Glad we’ve finally found a way of playing that gets the best out of him. Easily his best season for the club.

Despite his occasional gaffes - or maybe because of them? - i'm a fan of Big Jim

Watching him trying to play the ball out from the back reminds me of someone undergoing physio after a broken hip

Still, when played in the right formation he puts himself in the right place when it matters and provides leadership to two young CBs either side of him. Always the first to applaud the fans and seems to realise how lucky he is to be paid for doing what he loves

Great bloke, had a very quick chat after the game. Told me briefly about his time living down south when he played for Brighton. Didn't he have a serious injury when playing for Seagulls?

I'm a big fan of Jim, think he gets scapegoated quite a lot because of his nightmare run at left back that time.

He tries to play football the right way, he IS a decent footballer and seems to really have time for the fans. Wouldn't mind seeing him stay on as a coach.

Gentleman Jim growing on me for a lot of reasons - not least his metamorphosis from liability to rock

Up the Dale - NOT for sale!

Absolutely love the man’s passion and devotion. Little things like applauding the fans before and after every match and roaring with us after a good result - things like that endear him to me so much. Joint 2nd for my player of the season too with Lillis (Henderson’s an easy 1st though).

Absolute liability of a defender though. We’ve had to go to 3-5-2 to accommodate him which means we play a narrow three in midfield and loose all natural width, or we encourage two of the midfielders to stay wide which means Camps gets totally overrun.

I think that he appreciates his career more after having had to drop down to non-league at one stage. And after surviving a horrific injury that could have been career threatening.

I won't forget his celebration in front of the Sandy after the Spurs game.

Am I right is spotting a link to Gary Jones with the non-league club on his CV by the way?
