"4 year contract"? Surely that must have resulted in a nice bit of compensation for Notts

Talking of compensation it was rumoured he was appointed by FGR on a 3 year deal. Now I don't know the T&C's but if relieved of his duties then he should receive a very tidy financial sum.
Basically IB has tried to run before he could walk, there was no real reason for him to leave Notts, as he was on a 4 year contract, he would have been safe for another season, probably more guaranteed, not only that his prospects at FGR were limited as always going to be fighting relegation
If he had stayed at Notts, he might of done better with the benefit of Langstaff and Scot, a big reason why we are doing so much better this season

LW has proved to be a good manager, but how much is that down to him being a great manager, or that everything was perfectly set up player wise when he arrived, and also off the field behind the scenes
In LW,s favour , getting Bostock to sign could be a shrewd move by LW, showing he can identify good players , a necessary skill if he wants to climb up the pyramid during his career
And there nothing like a promotion on a managers Cv to boost his career
