Solihull Appoint Ardley

[CamPie]

Really surprised none of you infatuated with Neal Ardley, one way or another, have posted this already. Watch them tear up the league next year.

Congrats to him. Hopefully he's taken that long awaited break and used it to rebuild his energy and motivation. I hope he gets a very warm reception at Meadow Lane when he returns with them.

Then sending him and Solihull on their way with a fly in their ear, after an emphatic Notts victory

Davy - I understand your view on Ardley. But, with your logic, how can Hardy be blameless. By either not sticking with Nolan/Kewell or appointing Ardley, he’s accountable and therefore takes a share of the blame. Even if it’s 1%?

In terms of selling the club to credible owners. Had it not be for the intervention from other parties, he could of possibly sold to the bunch of crooks. However, he got the deal over the line and for that I’m grateful.

There was a rumour at the time that, that was his preferred option, as it would have realised him more money. You're right, Hardy must take some of the blame, if only for allowing his heart to rule his head and rush headlong into a bid to get promo, without a sniff of a plan, (other than throwing every penny he had into it), in place. IMO it would be fair to apportion the blame.

Hardy 2%.

Ardley 98%.

How does that sound?

Yes ok i think that sounds acceptable

So relieved, nothing to do with Ardley or Solihull but now we won't hear the same broken record suggestion of NA whenever a NL or L2 club needs a new manager.

I'm sure he will get a good reception at Meadow Lane on his return. Not that I viewed Moors as a promotion rival next season, and they won't be under Ardley but I wouldn't be surprised to see them improve from this seasons 11th placed finish.

Playoffs perhaps?

Hold on a second I fear I've been too hasty in celebrating.

Does this mean we are going to get Solihull score updates, match results and amateur analysis from his beloved fanclub on NCM every other game? I don't think I could handle that alongside the usual Sam Osborne watch as he tears up the National League North.

Or alternatively will his obsessed duo of detractors now move their attention to Solihull Moors Mad (SMM) or equivalent to let the locals know what's in store for them. Protect the point? Worst manger ever etc etc

Praying it's the latter, fearing it will be the former and we will trapped in the Twilight Zone all next season#viva Gulp.
