Williams is Favourite [New Head Coach speculation thread]

[irishpete]

Has something happened with Notts I?m not aware of recently as it feels like I?ve missed something.
As far as I know we moved to the head coach model towards the end of the Ardley era and it?s hasn?t changed since. Of course it will put some people off but why would they apply when it?s quite clear what the role is? This isn?t alien in the industry and becoming a lot more common over here too.

How many clubs use this model? I bet less than a handful especially outside the Prem. Coaches will apply to see if the rumours of how we operate are true & some just for nothing to lose experience. We know the owners want the ball on the ground & players signed without a Coach in place. We did it last week, we signed players in Jan for the future not for the here & now to push on in the autos. We did it before Williams came in. Ardley had to change his style under them & struggled

Less than a handful? I googled ?how many clubs in the EFL have a director of football? as that?s primarily the indicator of a model similar to ours? Head Coach deals with the players? DoF the running of the club which will include player recruitment. The answer was at least 18 of 24.
If you were a more than decent football manager/head coach the Notts job would appeal. It?s less work. That said, you would want some say in player recruitment, which I know LW alluded to was a collective effort.
I really don?t think the Notts job is unappealing to the many prospects out there? football has evolved and statistics have never ever been so prominent. Having owners who excel at this side has to be a huge plus for Notts and any new HC.
