Williams is Favourite [New Head Coach speculation thread]

[BanjoPie]

Wonder how long his gardening leave is? - could account for the delay in naming him!

According to reports he only started his job at Bristol Airport two weeks ago which I think rules him out of the Notts job on account that he would not have looked for a another job had he have known or thought that he was in for the Notts job.

So who the dickens is it???

[marshall55]

Surely someone who knows him could confirm.

If it is going to be Hojer then we might have a further wait on our hands.

It's not not over yet though

[Bohinen]

He knows how to let a lead slip, it's 1-1 now. They were 2-0 up against Finland and drew 2-2. So well suited to Notts, obviously.

Ok i have not renewed my season ticket until the new appointment was announced and it now has been announced.Russell King conned the fans back in 2009 and now we are being conned again .I will not be renewing the future is bleak.

Luke Williams would rather work as a baggage handler at Bristol airport than take this job.Its a botyom 8 budget , ok infrastructure is important and the new training ground has cost a lot but that will not put bums on seats.Next seadon looks like mediocrity at best.

I feel more underwhelmed this morning than I did last evening. Nevertheless it’s the club I support..hard work though.

That's the bottom line soccerman. We don't agree with all the things the club does but no matter what, it's the club we support through thick n thin

Just one point.

Williams before coming to Notts had a win rate of 26.67%
New guy has a win rate of 25% and that was a Burton.

I think we need to give the guy a chance.

Bit of a stretch to say Williams was manager when Sherwood picked team and subs !

[DaveSmithRules]

But it's not a stretch to say Paterson and Williams have fairly identical records before getting the Notts job. I'm happy to give him a chance too. Let's assess after 10 games rather than now.

It is when Williams isnt picking the tean or subs at Swindon.

I mean other than coaching what was the point of the role.

Yep, the old 10 games to find out scenario. Everything that happened before is totally irrelevant, all that matters is the first 10 games. Maybe we should move to decimal seasons, where eveything is done in tens. Unfortunately, history tells us that after 10 games, you pretty much get the pattern for the season, and then it's very hard to turn things round.

Fair play to everyone who is desperately trying to find positives in one of the worst managerial appointments in our history though. The data is not on your side.
