    The pros:

    Knows the club
    Good rapport with fans
    Won't have to pay a fee to a club as he's currently out of work
    Entertaing football
    Loves the club
    Players will step up for him

    The cons:
    Is going 'backwards' progression?
    Too many mistakes with his style (pens red cards etc)
    Teams in L2 will just press us
    Got found out a bit in L2

    It's 50/50 for me. I wouldn't be annoyed but also wouldn't be delighted.
    Can someone explain to me why Williams is going backwards? Also, his home form was brilliant, with our current defenders and keeper, I'm fairly sure the away form would be better also, in fact, I reckon he's learnt where he went wrong. Swansea didn't leak goals like Notts under him.

    I'm open-minded to whoever the brothers decide to appoint. Picking managers isn't an exact science. One thing that's virtually certain is that whoever they select will be given a fair amount of time to show what they can do.

    If Luke Williams makes a comeback I certainly would not be disappointed. Yes, there was too much overplaying at the back during his first reign, leading to some amateurish mistakes, but he may have learned from that and the standard of our centre-halves has improved a lot. Certainly the quality of the entertainment from his teams was some of the best I've seen in almost four decades watching Notts. It was possession football, but with much more pace and purpose than we've seen under Maynard.

    Good luck whoever it is.
