Deja vu?

[sidders]

Here's hoping Mr Nolan isn't tempted to 'do an Allardyce' either now or if he succeeds in getting Notts promoted in his first season.
I do hope Alan Hardy has got him tightly contracted so Notts aren't left as high and dry as they were when Big Sam shafted them all those years ago.

El Grande Samuel was under a good contract - which was annulled for compassionate reasons. Then, the next day, he heard about a lucrative offer from Bolton and suddenly his family troubles weren't too bad. Lucky or what?

I suppose there is a first time for everything ,a football related post.

On Saturday, KN said "my people are still studying the new offer".....and last night I noticed that KN wouldn't look at the commentators directly....he definitely looked a bit shifty......Sid the Scoop might be onto something here.

Did he do a special wave - you know, the "that's all, I'm off now" one?

No worries! I understand Big Sam is waiting in the wings to take over. Back to the only club he’s ever won any silverware at. Why do you think he didn’t take on the Crystal Palace job again when he was recently approached?

Umm, in the last 4 weeks I think you will find my 'football-related posts' are greater in number than my 'world situation' messages, sailor; lost your telescope, cap'n?

Never heard the telescope one before and I am pretty sure a matelot on watch would have used binoculars though we tended to rely on more up to date technology . I only made it as far as Petty Officer but you can call me Captain if you like .

Sid - Why did you change the original post to Navy?.......are you trying to be nice for the rest of today?....if so I'll stick around

I have noticed KN often looks down when being interviewed but who am I to argue ,after all tarkers you was the only one to call last night's game correctly :D

Yep, I think I screwed it up last night calling it "dreadful"....I've spent the morning trying to reclaim some shred of respectability on here, but I fear I'm getting myself deeper into the doggy-do.....at 1pm, I plan to retire to the palm tree with a few pints of Corona.....and pretend that someone else hacked into my MAD account!!

I for one believe the Bolton job coming up at the same time Big Sam left Notts was purely coincidental . I also believe Carl Dickinson should be England's first choice left back . Please don't tell me he's actually Welsh , no, please tell me he is !

I have to say this quietly on here but you are entitled to your opinion ;D

[irishpete]

I think something is to be announced regarding KN & the signing of his contract before the week is out.Read some posts on AH twitter this morning regarding it.But as we know with JUDAS the Basterd,contracts are not worth the paper they are written on,especially so in football.God,I still hate that chunt.

[spag]

Alternatively he could stay and do an Eddie Howe. Look at hasslebank and that liverpool guy who managed us for a bit and spent about 2 months at Blackburn before getting sacked (can't for the life of me remember his name). The grass is not always greener. Seems KN gets on with his boss, SA, according to his autobiography, found Mr Pavis a bit heavy.

Nolan's stats (league games only)......

Pld 28 W15 D5 L8 Pts 50
Average pts per game - 1.79

Over 46 games a 1.79 average would give us 82 points, that total would have been just 3 points short of automatic promotion for the last two L2 seasons. So if we carry on as we have been doing since he came in, with a very very slight improvement, we'd go up.

Since 3pts for a win were introduced in 1981, only Cotterill and Kevan have a higher points ratio than Nolan currently has (and Kevan was only in charge for 9 games, Cotterill for 18).

Aside from the fact he's not fatticus *******icus he does remind me a lot of Allardyce with his style of getting a lot of application and effort from ordinary. So far he's not a Judus and I don't believe he's taken any bungs either so it's early days!

If you work at Poundland, and M&S come knocking what you going to do..;D

If you work at M&S and Primuck come knocking what you going to do...:O:?

[drillerpie]

He'd be mad to go before the end of the season. He's clearly a talented manager but if he goes now then by the end of the season he'll just be a once promising manager with a Championship relegation on his CV.

If he stays there's a very good chance he'll have a League 2 promotion on his CV and be considered the next Rowett or Howe.

No brainer in my view.
