Will be announced as head coach tomorrow according to radio Nottingham. He's resolved his family problems now apparently.

Please please please be true.

I can't take anymore

Here's hoping

If....

More likely that RT gave in to his demands and has one last shot at trying to stay in this league.

Too little, too late, IMO. 

I'd be surprised if this guy lasts until the end of the season. His over inflated opinion of himself has burned so many bridges that he is now reduced to managing in the lower leagues in England. His absurdity will be right at home at Notts.

It was a joke appointment before & it is borderline farce now. Just can't see the point - at all.

Trying to use a Euro model, "total football" approach with the dross that we've got and in the lower leagues in general is beyond any credibility. Supporting a Head Coach with "a team of assistants" is mind boggling, simply mind boggling.

Very strange indeed

Mmm,not at all sure what to make of this.Time will tell but,as Jimmy Greaves used to say,'It's a funny old game'

Good luck to him, if it happens I don't read into owt until its official really. This is a weird saga! You could tell the story by writing it on one hand.

@Pies4u, we've already essentially moved to the continental system anyway - as managers generally don't discuss the financials with players any more, they are pretty much head coaches anyway, with chairmen/CEOs filling the sporting director role. And I'm not sure where the "total football" thing has come from, maybe just because he is Dutch? If he's prepared to coach at our level, surely he's pragmatic enough to realise that he won't be able to replicate the great Ajax teams of the past with this team.

 

Appointing a manager with so little experience of English football below the top flight is odd, but I'll give the new man a chance. We're dead in the water now anyway and have nothing to lose, maybe he'll bring fresh ideas and new impetus. And at least he'll get the opportunity to run the rule over the squad for next season.

Always been a fan of an early f5 - chess player's joke.

He thinks he can tell good jokes.

Odd? It is stark, staring bonkers tbh.

If he's still here this time next year, I'll review my position. Until then, just don't see it. Why on Earth would he want to come here for a start? No work elsewhere............

Well, it's official - he is here now, for 3 years. Best get on with it.

Hart has walked out by all accounts, not sure how true that it btw. The circus continues. Tommy Johnson back to collect the bibs will put the tin lid on it!

Welcome aboard Ricardo, best of luck. Not my choice but I'm with you all the way. Come on you Piiiiiiiiiiiieeeeeeees.
