Trouble At Swansea? edit 17Feb25 Luke Williams sacked

I think Steve Coopers name will crop up for every managerial vacancy in the championship or lower prem until he gets a job.

Luke Williams played a major role in his downfall at Swansea City. While some Notts fans might feel he's been treated unfairly, criticising the players publicly and failing to replace some of the bigger influences in the dressing room, and then stating that you avoid them on match days, only leads in one direction. I wonder if Richard Montague knew, when he took on his role, that one of his first major decisions would be to sack Williams? I thank both for what they have done for our club, but both apparently felt they were bigger, and when the first opportunity came to leave, they did.

I understand football and know there is little loyalty, but I think we can say Williams never seemed to get a grip on any defensive issues. A lot of what Stuart Maynard needed to address came as a result of how Williams set Notts up. The decisions to extend the contracts of players who perhaps should have been let go sooner, and the failures we have had in recruitment, might mean that whoever takes over from Montague is a blessing. I don't wish any manager to be sacked, and I hold no hard feelings towards either Williams or Montague, but I feel they have made poor decisions that led to this. If Montague thinks he can survive at a club that clearly has no idea, it won't be long before he's a casualty of this game.
