Great to hear Luke is back in the footballing groove 😎

I never believe the click bait stories till they actually happen. If it is true, & that's a big if, it will be nice to see Luke back in football management, but it does beg the question, why take a job where a club is rock bottom in League 1, when he could have easily taken a job with a leading league 2 club?

Nottingham to Newport 3hrs 9mins. Peterborough to Newport 3hrs 33mins.

If he waits for a few weeks Bristol Rovers might be looking for a new manager, that’s just over the border for him.

I think it’s mad that no football academy or head-coach has been on the phone to get him because he’d be absolutely perfect for that. He’s already said he’s not that fussed if he’s a head-coach or part of a coaching team in his next role. And given how he’s switched career entirely he’s got no ego or sense of entitlement, he strikes me as being a really good team player as well as someone who can lead.

I wish him well, but it's going to be a hard task for him to save Peterborough. Personally I think he's made a mistake but time will tell.

He can't repeat what he did for us - we had a winning squad assembled and he had pre-season to install his system of play.

No time for that arriving bottom of the league in November. He'll have to go about it differently

It's an appointment that kind of suggests 'we're going down, but we want you to take us back up next year', but they're only 2 wins off safety with 32 matches to go. The club will want to stay up and the fans will be against him if they don't. I tend to agree with @Robbie 

Luke is one of those football managers who has lots of personality & someone who will be able to have a great relationship with the fans.

Expectations will be high that he can turn things around & I'm sure he will give everyone a boost at the club. I will check on the Posh to see how they are doing after their matches.

I’m really pleased to see that Luke has got a job back in football, I wish him every success, except if and when they play Notts of course.

I don't wish to sound harsh, but Luke Williams is still riding off the success he had with us. His stint at Swansea City isn't something that would overly appeal to clubs in my opinion, whilst he did a modest job. There were a lot of articles circulating about how he was staying away from the players and how he had caused a division among the squad.

Swansea captain Matt Grimes also left the club, stating Williams as the cause.

There are two ways of looking at this: either Williams was weeding out the bad eggs/underperformers, or he was contributing to the problem holding Swansea back.

That doesn't sound good 😬

Since he arrived at the club, it's his first major appointment after having success. Alienating a struggling squad isn't exactly the way to go; I would have thought it would be best to adjust slowly and find replacements. I thought he had made a jump that was too big, but I understood the reasons, as he would be closer to his family.

Peterborough United, to me, seems like a poor move because they have spent money and massively underperformed as a result.

It's almost identical to Swansea City, who needed someone able to get the best out of the squad that was there without a massive overhaul. Posh will probably spend more money come January, but they need someone who can work with their existing players and fairly quickly improve their situation.

Holding the position at the bottom of League One comes with immense pressure, and although I genuinely wish Williams success, the challenges ahead are significant. I can see it failing; he would have done better to wait for a team that wasn't in any sort of crisis but just needed a steady leader.
