That can only mean good news surely... AH has to be sick of the spineless performances this season and let's hope he is ready to act with his wallet, so many dead wood at this club so how in God's name is Ardley going to ship most of them out... Prob going to be the most important transfer window in this clubs history
I would bloody well hope so. This January window has the making of being quite possibly one of the most important few weeks ever in securing the future of this club.
We all know what is needed, the question is how much more will it cost to entice the right players to this club whilst trying to offload the dozen or so we need to in order to balance the books.
I honestly believe this will be one last throw of the dice by AH. Hold on to your seats, it’s going to be a bumpy ride folks.
Two things:
1) AH must realise that there is "no balancing" books to be done here. Within the rules of course he has to do all that is necessary to give us a chance of survival. That he is here again after two seasons is a massive shame
2) NA must tell AH to shut up about footballing matters. It seems every time AH opens his mouth about how we're going to do we get smashed. Saying that if the players play well we'll have more chance of getting better players in to replace them is ... shooting oneself in the foot. There is a super video of the great Jimmy cutting Dunnett short so that he can return to his training session with his players. Worth searching for if you haven't seen it.
Most of you know I'm critical of AH but he is his own worse enemy. I wish him success and he must really be hurting but he really is a naive conceited prat at times. I'd half expected him to start managing the team, he knows he wants to.
Totally agree.
When I realised it was THE George I found it cringe worthy.
It's Alan's hard earnt money but I find this very inappropriate.
If George was a retired former goalkeeper, Notts or otherwise, fair enough, but he's a young lad not a sporting hero.
Just doesn't sit well with me. I can't bear to watch George adjusting his gloves and making the goal look big etc
Get rid of back 5 from yesterday asap
It's as we were losing against a conference side Grimsby pre-season a few years ago that Ray Trew infamously said "Keep the faith...i will make sure this defence is sorted out even if it means bringing in a whole new back 4 "
In reality he never really did and whilst we've got a different 4 players I think the term "defence" is missing from their vocabulary.
We're not learning. As someone else posted "definition of madness .. etc". Let's hope that this is not a "knee-jerk" plan ("I must be seen to be doing something 'cause I'm the busiest man in the world") and that NA is driving the agenda.
Oh, and keep AH away from the interviews, in fact keep him away from everything except the cheque book.
It would seem that the state of things at Meadow Lane is significantly worse than our new management team anticipated. The really sad aspect is that they face what is the most important game of the season so far (Macclesfield) with only the present playing staff to choose from. There will likely be a lot more motivation in Sol Campbell's corner than Messrs Ardley and Cox can summon in theirs.
