Yet you contradict yourself , you blame the electrician , but not Ardley, jog on pal and crawl up Ardleys arse
I beg to differ, they would not have stayed up, hence the reason he left . Who cares - Arley releagted us, so so much for average record at wimbledon
There are different pressures at Notts and mediocre in the NL is not acceptable.
By first avoiding relegation with Wimbledon and then winning promotion he raised expectation levels. Ultimately becoming a victim of his own success. Had they stayed in L2 where mediocre was acceptable(your words) he wouldn’t of left.
Evening Laddo , I'm sorry that you get confused so easily, I think that explains an awful lot.
Like I said and apologised for , I missed your original post where you explained that you blamed the Electrician.
it was a genuine mistake ( you have even acknowledged the apology) I hope that's ok.
As for the analoggillilly thingy I don't know what it means , if my question was one that turned out to prove a point it was totally coincidental.
But you would blame the Electrician not the company.
As for your mangers Question here goes
Kewell - sacked to soon ,in my eyes had potential
Nolan - did a good job from what he inherited. when he went it was about time to go , but wouldn't have minded if he was given time to rectify what was going on , but we had gone really poor and were looking doomed from day one of the new season !
Fullerton - sacked much to soon. was possibly Ardley in disguise with his tactics. Took and expansive attacking team and turned it into one of the most defensive minded set ups you would ever see.( ok he was a disgrace in my eyes an insult to every Notts fan)
Moniz - should have been given more time to develop his style (surprising hey seeing has he got us relegated)
Curle - one of the better ones, I don't mind possession football as long as there is an end product .
Mad Dog - maybe the time was right went he went , but I had no reason to want him gone, balls of steel and passion
short - sacked much to soon,
Cotterill - did the job but ! made a fool of us with the contract situation. couldn't stand the footy he served up !
Backe - The few games he had I liked his style of play .wish he had stayed and the cash wasn't just an illusion
Mcparland- I liked some of the footy we played at times , I think he didn't just know how to get a team to defend. Questionable ethics regards the old school players - your old(experienced) therefore you're good !
Dearden - ok in difficult circumstances
Big Sam - say no more - well he had to go he was tired of football and needed a break didn't he.?
Apart from Fuller5h1t3 I have not really wanted a manger gone from day two !
managers that have been sacked over the years are plentiful but in the main I could take or leave them.
some of the names that I have missed out are mangers that I have had no time for but fell into the category of take them or leave them.
But then again they were all employed and plying their trade in the football league.
Is this any good for you ?
Yes that is true,
guess a bit like Nolan starting off so well, and raising expectation, and ultimately becoming a victim of his earlier success,
Ardley point per a game at wimbledon is average to poor to be honest , only 32.5 %

So Nolan win rate of 42.4% against Ardleys 34.8 across 2 clubs proves beyond any doubt Nolan is the better manager. Even today Nolan probably earns more than Ardley as assistant at West ham
With regard to managers becoming the victim of their own success
Its human nature, we are all inheritantly greedy, wanting more and more. Its like in my job, having got a decent pay increase, i will not want to go back to the lower rate , i only want to go higher
