- Nicholson's first managerial opponent is now taking up a new career as a Sports Journalist. Barry Smith, who was in charge of Aldershot Town on October 3rd 2015, is now covering his former club Dundee for the Dundee Evening Telegraph.
- His first win in charge came a week later away with a 1-0 victory Southport - courtesy of an early Alex Fisher strike.
- Nathan Blissett, who was a teammate of Nicholson's for a time during his stint with Kidderminster Harriers in the 2014-15 season, is the Gulls' top scorer during his reign at Plainmoor with 11 goals.
- His biggest win in charge remains the Gulls' 4-1 victory over his former side Forest Green Rovers - his first at Plainmoor - on Boxing Day 2015, which provided United with a late, if not unlikely, Christmas present.
- As well as facing two of his former clubs (Forest Green and Kidderminster) as a manager, Nicholson has also come up against an ex-boss (Jim Harvey, FC Halifax) a former teammate (Chris Todd, Eastleigh) and on two occasions he has faced his predecessor (Paul Cox, Barrow).
