John Deehan Joins Grimsby Town

17th March 2010

Lincoln City's relegation rivals Grimsby Town could have just made their best signing of the season by appointing former Lincoln City Director of Football John Deehan as their Head of Recruitment.

Although given the title of Director of Football at Lincoln, Deehan occupied a similar role at Sincil Bank between July 2006 - October 2007. During this time, he and manager John Schofield brought in players such as Dany N'Guessan, Louis Dodds (loanee), Mark Stallard and Paul Green. All of whom were good players for Lincoln, with N'Guessan in particularly shinning thereby securing a move to Leicester City last summer.

In fact, Schofield and Deehan only really made one bad signing and that was ageing striker Steve Torpey. It is just a shame that things went disastrously wrong for the pair at the start of the 2007/08 season.
