In Ardleys case I suppose it boils down to his chosen style hes adopted and how he impliments it during games.
It seems the rest of the factors are in his favour.
Personally I think it's been poor and I dont see it improving and we are the man city and not the Fulham.
But there are others on here that seem to have a different view on all of the above.
I definitely agree we are the Man City of the NL. That’s why I firmly believe this season promotion is an absolute must. Ardley has been well supported by the owners and given a season to consolidate/build ...... he needs to deliver.

I do find there is some absolute drivel written on here. Folk seem to look for sticks to beat Ardley with and get very personal.

Anyway, I can assure you I’m not a disciple😃. I am a glass half full person and I believe NA is very close to the the correct formula. We’ll know come the end of the season.
