Derbados Posted August 26, 2018 Share Posted August 26, 2018 Jesus, the chairman hasn’t held back. . . Owner and chairman Alan Hardy said: “This is a decision we’ve made with the best interests of Notts County at heart. “While the beginning of our 2018-19 campaign has been bitterly disappointing, the board and I believe results and performances throughout 2018 have not been good enough overall. “The last eight months have seen us win only eight of our 28 Sky Bet League Two matches, a run which saw us surrender our position in the automatic promotion places before suffering defeat in the play-off semi-finals. “Our away form has also been a continuing concern, with only two league victories recorded on the road since the turn of the year. “Ultimately, a continuation of this form would not allow us to meet our targets for the season and, having conceded 16 goals in our last five matches and being without a win in our last 10 competitive games, we feel now is the time to move forward with a new manager at the helm. “Everybody knows of my desire to restore the fortunes of the world’s oldest Football League club and I have invested substantial monies to strengthen our playing squad in the summer. “Our supporters have responded magnificently by turning out in their droves but, unfortunately, their efforts have not been backed up by performances on the pitch. “This club will nevertheless always owe Kevin a huge debt of gratitude for his work in saving us from relegation from the EFL when I first arrived in January 2017. “It was a truly remarkable turnaround and we wish him and his team every success in the future.” Steve Chettle and Mark Crossley will take charge of first-team affairs until a new manager is appointed.

Derbados Posted August 26, 2018 Share Posted August 26, 2018 If they are the worlds oldest football league club, what did they do all day whilst they were waiting for other teams to form? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let’s give it a try Let’s form a club and wait for a sport to be invented that suits our purpose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RamNut Posted August 26, 2018 Share Posted August 26, 2018 If derby hadn't been at home I would probably have gone to the Lincoln - notts co match. looks like lincoln turned it on and that was too much for notts co chairman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Millenniumram Posted August 26, 2018 Share Posted August 26, 2018 Unsurprising looking at them in pre-season versus us. Didn’t seem to have much idea at all and we pegged them back pretty much the whole game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IlsonDerby Posted August 27, 2018 Share Posted August 27, 2018 Least it seems to be a decision made over the course of the last 8 months rather than knee jerk. One of their directors has stepped down which I assumed is due to disagreeing with this decision? Wonder whether Chettle will go back to Ilson now???
