King Luke to Swansea

[OchPie]

Anyone watched the farewell interview yet?

It's how I found out it had been confirmed.

It, he, is a huge loss but what else can we do but go again.

Anyone watched the farewell interview yet?

Yep, very complimentary about the club, fans, players and staff
Says whoever comes in has a fantastic opportunity as the club is only going in one direction

[SmiffyPie]

Glad it's done and dusted.
Let's see what the Bros produce.

Within the next couple of weeks we may find out whether the new players being lined up were coming because it's NCFC or whether it was LW,we shall see.

It worries me the statement Notts put out. It sounded like the Norwich defender was almost here and now the statement said we can still sign players, it wasn't as reassuring as I'd have liked bearing in mind it has been going on for 3 days

[Stan Marshall]

Seconded.

I know a few are saying we might get a better replacement, but I can't see it. He is a massive loss in my opinion.

Totally agree.

[OchPie]

Just got an email from the club too, subject "Luke Williams departs". Not much in, links to the statement and video.

Oh and this.

I'll always love Luke Williams. Besides the amazing football and promotion, I'll remember him as a fantastic guy who totally reinvigorated our great club. I'll follow his career with interest and hope he goes on to be successful at Swansea. I totally understand why he moved - family always comes first.

Now, let's see who we can get in. As long as the bros are in charge, the future looks bright. Onwards and upwards!

[SmiffyPie]

Yep, onwards and upwards, never look back, no use crying over spilt milk etc.

I think there's a lot more pressure on us now to make the play offs. LW had enough credit in the bank for most fans to accept a top half finish, but any manager who takes over now and fails to make the top 7 will be the man who inherited a club in a play off position and made us worse.

Glad it's over and we can get on with the football that obviously was affected by Luke deciding to leave weeks ago leading to a few bad loses! I've enjoyed the time but the amount of goals we're shipping this season has been a worry. Lets hope Notts have a clause to stop him poaching players before the summer. Then I can see a few leaving so a rebuild will be needed in the summer.

As Burchnall found out the grass isn't always greener although the money is!! So good luck Luke as you're gonna need it with their owners that's for sure. Guess if it all goes t*ts up there's always Newport County as that's even closer to home.

Right then back to the football "Jim O'Brien's black and white army!!!"
