Nolan now favourite and being interviewed now

[Bridg4d_Pie_]

Wrexham manager

Oh Dear, that does not sound very encouraging, but as Joe has often said, 'We are Notts County we will struggle on ' Just.

Yeah, but you outed him as a troll in that thread.

He pretty much admitted he was a troll as well!!! Amazing how many fans would welcome Nolo back, tho.

Where does this club go if it appoints Nolan and things are just as they were? Firing the man again would take Notts into a surreal No Man's Land. Nolan would not be an appointment, he would be in all likelihood a life sentence. Goodbye Football League.

Who the heck is Ricketts, you mean Michael Ricketts the ex Bolton forward.

Sam Ricketts, the ex Bolton defender. Could he be the guy to sort our defence?

Managed for 21 games but has a 61% win ratio.

That's six games more than Mr Nolan had under his belt. On that basis Mr Ricketts must be a future World Cup winning (Wales) manager.

He is the guy with a bone disorder in his legs...

Come on now durhampie, first Michael (Atherton) Appleton and now this! People are going to think you have a sense of humour, you've worked damn hard to build your reputation as a miserable bugger. Don't blow it now.

All this Nolan coming back talk is funny. There is more chance of Jamie Fullarton getting a second chance in football management. Oh wait..

Exactly what I was thinking. If he reappoints Nolan and we lose the first couple of games, the fans will go absolutely mental. We're talking full-on Fullarton-style mental, possibly worse. Then what does Hardy do? He can't sack him again, not after a few weeks. It would go down in history as one of the most insane football stories ever, and would cement Notts County in the history books as the biggest joke club around. We wouldn't recover from it, and we'd drop out of the league.

But what if we win the first couple of games? I think people would get behind Nolan pretty quickly again. But he would have to hit the ground running - and what are the chances of that with this squad?

I just can't see it happening. If Nolan really just needed to sort out some personal issues and take a time out, he should have been put on gardening leave for six weeks. I believe that people can lose their way due to non-work-related issues, and they can come back stronger than before, but you'd think his chance at Notts had sailed.
