Yep it will be a coach who plays possession/attacking football, it’s working in terms of results, entertainment and increased crowds and plus the squad is geared up for that.Quote:

Some interesting choices of potential replacements for LW.
We have to assume it needs to be someone who will hit the ground running but young enough to develop into a better coach and ensure the owners get a return on their investment.
Stuart Maynard definitely worth considering.
Matt Sadler at Walsall would be another great shout. Only 38 with an upbeat personality. Starting to put a great run of results together but is very much one of Walsall's own so might need to be a very good offer.
Pete Wild at Barrow. Might be a difficult one to get over the line but would IMO be a good fit.
Scott Lyndsey at Crawley. Had a decent season so far but at 51 years old might just be a little too old for the owners.
Rob Elliott at Gateshead is almost a carbon copy of LW playing style.
Have been working on a few left field options with the Analysts Bar lads which would be typical Radar signings from Scotland and oversees but there also a few really good coaches that are either assistant coaches or U23 coaches in the PL that would find Notts a great prospect to further their careers.
Going to be an interesting few weeks and if nothing else we have an excuse now for not going up if Stags and Wrexham do!
Yep, well said Matt and 78.Quote:

Us throwing random names out as never been more futile, the bros will go for the trifecta of successful outside the box appointments.
Interesting, for me I would probably want a coach who had worked with senior players unless the owners felt there was definitely something special about them, of course they may be the next best thing but it’s a different ball game managing senior players and needing to get results. I guess they can draw out their personalities in the interviews to see if they can lead senior players and that’s what we equally need as much as a top class coach, a leader.Quote:

If they do that, we would need another midfielder.Quote:

They are getting nervous in Wales
I wonder if we'd take another look at the other Phill Parkinson at Alty. He's doing a great job there. The questions would be whether he can step up a level (or hopefully two or three).Quote:
