Sounds great until you are lumbered with a Fullarton for a season.
Look at the damage he'd cause the club.
Poor manager, no rapport with fans, negative football, losing most weeks that sounds great and MOST fans would not be happy.
LW is obviously a good coach, man manager and the key is he connects with the fans that helps for sure.

The down side would be the risk of flooding the game with more foreign and/or first time managers whilst the better English managers are on "gardening leave" for longer periods with less opportunities to get back in. Something needs to be done however and I think it would be worth trying, I'd anticipate greater stability for the majority of clubs with long term positives outweighing the negatives.

Williamson in already at McDonalds...well that was quick 😳

If he can get a few points on the board, can’t say I blame him. Infrastructure there. Half decent squad that just needs a positive vibe.
Only issue is the chairman and the fans backing him.
Big jump for Williamson, but he’s a good manager imo. He was always my first choice before we appointed Williams.

Quite interested to see how he does there. He's done a cracking job at Gateshead and definitely earned the move. If someone poached LW, I'd have been happy with him and his team taking the reins here at Notts.

Yes but he would never have been hired would he and we would still have the crazy football from Moniz! I still think there was an air of vindictive in that appointment from the owners at the time.
Hall Of Fame
Well not necessarily him but we’ve picked our share of duffers I’m sure we could have found one
I do agree in principle that a manager needs time and have always said that our model helps as we buy players to fit the model whilst under previous owners we appointed various managers all with completely different ideas.

Thats a little strong on Moniz. I thought he was an ok Manager that would have got a lot better, good in fact.
The circumstances at the time was against him, Ray Trew was in freefall all over the place, his missus was involved in the running of the club with no experience and money was a massive issue.
Moniz had a good vision of the game and how it should be played, it was entertaining at the very least, given more players to sign we would probably have not dropped into the National League, all conjecture i agree but i liked him.
