The recruitment team signed both Langstaff and Scott with the intention of playing both together. I'm pretty sure Williams would have been instructed accordingly..
if he doesn't adhere to the instructions given, then he will be collecting his P45..

durhampie, if the owners want such strict control, why employ a coach and especially an assistant. Just pay someone to keep the players fit and instruct them to play to the owners formation.
Who on earth would take a coach's job on to not have any say in how your team play.

That's why Ardley got the sack, because he wanted to do it way and not the owners..

Took them.long enough to sack him then.

They did when it became clear we would not go up automatically.

In the fans eyes Ardley was never getting us automatically. The owners must be more considered and careful in their approach than the supporters.

This season has barely begun, but has any manager looked like he's gonna get us up automatically?

Probably not. Although at this stage last season IB had won 2, drawn 2 including a demolition of Barnet on opening day and an impressive point at Wrexham so could easily be argued yes.

I know Barrow and Stockport didn't look like getting automatic this early in their respective seasons.

durhampie, I thought you said the owners sacked NA because he wanted to do it the Frank Sinatra way, now you are saying they sacked him because he wasn't going to get us up automatically. Make your mind up.
