Ex-Notts Player Signs For...

Out of the eight clubs he has managed, his best win rate actually came at Notts - 45.1%. Definitely the most unpopular Notts manager with such a decent win rate.

Didn't even know he was manager there. The Hartlepool curse! Both Allen and Curle lost their Notts jobs after losing at their place and IIRC the next manager following those two - Chris Kiwomya - was sacked on the day the FA Cup draw was made, we got Hartlepool away!

Curle only won 2 of his last 12 home games at Notts, which probably explains his unpopularity. LW still on course to beat his unbeaten away league record thanks to the injury time equaliser on Saturday. Curle went 19 unbeaten, LW currently 14.

That was more to do with our away record. We were crap at home.

Shaun Derry saw his ability and gave him a three year contract. Unfortunately, the managers that followed failed to give him a chance and instead spent however much on journeyman forwards.

It's a fact that our youth system in recent years hasn't been prolific in producing talent compared with the Mick Walker days of the 80's/90's, but that makes it even more galling that some of the talents we have produced - thinking of Curtis Thompson and Colby Bishop in particular - were allowed to walk away for nothing.

Curtis Thompson was just stupidity on Nolan's part but Bishop remember had to drop to National League North (and possibly lower!) Before finding his feet. He need game time that he wasn't getting at Notts and we didn't have the budget to wait. I would imagine that our current owners probably would have been willing but the previous owners knew the cost of everything and the value of nothing

I believe if we go back into the FL we get more money for the Academy.
I know of a 16 yr old lad who has been offered a 1 year contract ..but only if we go up
