Quoted from rancido



In football you can never guarantee success , just put the odds in your favour. I don't know much about Notts C set up but I would imagine Nolan brought in players during the summer to fit in with a game plan he had for the season. Take that manager away, bring in a different one and those plans are instantly thrown out the window. Unless the new manager buys into the previous ones philosophy then you have a set of players who might not suit the new ones playing style.


I too can only go along with what I see and read of their season but after 5 games you must show something, even the smallest glimmer that things are pulling around. But for one of the seasons favourites to concede 16 goals in the opening 5 games is rather concerning and possibly suggests that, as you mention, the manager and players are not buying into each other's ways at all and pulling the plug this quickly was right for once.

I think it depends on why they're losing. If it's because he's upset the players better to get rid early, even though it's only four games. They recruited well in my opinion and should be doing ok in league 2

I thought Kellett looked very good when he played here last season. However we have recruited well in midfield, just a pity we have lost Whitehouse,

Quoted from jamesgtfc
Ex town defender Steve Chettle has been placed as one of the caretaker managers. Interesting that he was only appointed full time first team coach last week too.

With relegated players such as Kellett and Dennis from Chesterfield, the recruitment was all wrong. He was well respected as a captain on the field and had some ex colleagues playing for him last season such as Alan Smith and Shola Ameobi. With these now gone, he may not command the respect he did last season.


Good observation!

Looking at authority and respect as a sliding scale, a reduction wouldn't take long to be evident on the pitch. I think the decisive nature of the sacking would suggest this. A board would allow time for tactical development and evolution, loss of authority would be treated more urgently.

Quoted from ginnywings
You don't get long in the modern game, especially if the club has chucked a load of money at it.


Which probably accounts for why Slade was given an age - our board haven't caught up with 'the modern game' yet, and we'd certainly not 'chucked money at it'.

Very disjointed County team had a shaky enough back four but RB & CH went off injured 1st half.
Lost too many good players the lad on loan from Forest carried them and they were ordinary without him.

Hardly suprising, they were dog poo under Nolan, awful Allardyce esque style of play , in our games last season they looked terrible IMO....only won 8 of the last 28 league games so its not just about the 4/5 games this season.

Awful style of football. Good investment, absolutely terrible results after four games. It's clear they were in a mess already. They've made the change at the right time, that or the could have gone 26 games without a win, then appointed Neil Woods. Right change, hoofball is hopefully dead and for a good reason.
