    Seeing this made me smile - a welcome reminder of the past and whilst being a good footballer obviously doesn't necessarily transfer to coaching, I hope it proves to be a big positive. Welcome back Nicky and Nick!

    As I recall, Nicky Eaden got a fair amount of stick in the latter part of his period with us. It seemed to me that he became the scapegoat at times, although maybe I've exaggerated it in my mind over time. Irrespective, what a good player he was and what we wouldn't give for him at his best in the team now!

    Eaden was never a flamboyant player but he did his job effectively at the top level

    I think it's brilliant. obviously there comes a point where you have to prove you're good enough, to coach at the top level. but it will be invaluable for the academy setup, to have ex-pros involved. they're part of the history of the club.

    Nicky Eaden developed through the ranks to become a solid dependable pro who rarely if ever let the club down, and why he was made a scapegoat by some I'll never understand.
    The first thought that always comes to my mind whenever Nicky's name is mentioned is that sublime looping cross so brilliantly despatched by Darren Barnard on the unforgettable night we mullered Huddersfield.

    Was it Eaden who was released at the end of the Machin period?

    One of my favourite goals that. Think the whole crowd were thinking…. Please don’t miss.

    And a fantastic effort to keep the ball in for SJHs back heel.

    Still gives me goose bumps when I see Eaden's goal.
    Welcome home, Nicky.
    I seem to remember that Machin gave him a free transfer, only for Viv and Danny to call him back, and what a career he had at Oakwell.

    See dn6 post, thought he was released by either wadsworth or Machin then taken back on, think under big Eric’s recommendation… obviously a brilliant call!

    He did but always interesting to hear the comments of the pros and coaches who worked with him. Can’t spk highly enough of him as a player.
