Please can we a have Head Coach with plenty of league 2 & or league 1 experience?

A Head Coach who has a good knowledge of league 1 & 2 players & good idea of the players required to get us out of this league.

No more non league experiments. Let's get the real McCoy this time.

Also an interesting call @Piethagoram. Last week, the journalist Pete O'Rourke posted that he was facing the sack from York after losing in the playoffs. This isn't just a rumour monger - it's the same man who broke the news about Langstaff leaving and Whitaker joining, so he's clearly well connected.

York then posted on Facebook that "Adam Hinshelwood remains the manager of York City FC", which in my eyes falls short of "he's going nowhere". From the outside, I don't think his position looks very secure and he might be open to a move. He's well thought of by the York fans, which isn't surprising after taking over in a relegation battle and leading them to 96 points.

This is pure speculation on my part, but I wonder if York rowed back on sacking him when they found that another club was interested (and willing to pay compensation)? That wouldn't necessarily mean the other club is Notts though.

I’d be pretty happy with Hinshelwood if it happens. He certainly ticks a lot of boxes, his style fits and he has completely transformed that York City team. Ever since they got promoted they’ve been fighting relegation then he comes in and in his first season they get almost 100 points, that is incredibly impressive.

My only slight concern is how York essentially flunked the play-offs having done so well in the regular reason. Them losing 3-0 (at home) was a massive shock, I think they should've at least got to the final. People talk about the mental resilience you need to do well in football in those big pressure matches. You can’t measure it but you can see and feel it. Is that missing with Hinshelwood? We were in almost the same scenario under Luke Williams in the play-offs, but you can argue he instilled that mental resilience, we fought back every time and got promoted.

It goes to show how unrealistic some of our fans are. We've got about as much chance of landing Mourinho. The owners will get murdered pretty much regardless of who we appoint.

It's not hard. Just appoint a good experienced league 2 Head Coach, who can lead, coach & manage.

A leader who can quickly garner respect from his players & can get the best out of them, who knows the vast majority of players who play in league 2.

And a manager who is not afraid to change the shape & style of playing if the existing shape & style isn't working.

And last but not least, a manager that can use his substitutes to change a game if necessary.

Are you sure? I heard Mourinho was interviewed last week and someone else said they saw Mancini getting a tour around the University of Nottingham 🫣😏
