If you could change one thing at Notts County, what would it be?

I am curious to see what decisions people would undo and how they feel it may have changed the club's fortunes.

When people ask what 'American Pie' is about, they're missing the point. The song isn't about the lines themselves - it's about what is between the lines. The song is about what isn't there.

I'm expecting some to say the Munto saga or when Derek Pavis sold certain players.

I personally can't really think of anything during my years, I was too young when Derek Pavis owned the club and the Munto saga restored the club back to an healthy level. I know the clubs been having some issues, yet we wouldn't have returned to League One and we would have remained an average League Two team that never really improved. So, I would say the years after I wished could change because I don't think the community has been looked after properly but that's just my opinion. I know plenty of other fans who share my thoughts on this.

A field where dreams become reality.

2 Major points for me.

1. The sacking of Mick Walker. This came at a time when we played the best football I can remember at the Lane. So much skill in his teams. We wold have gone on to be a much bigger club if we had stuck with him imo.

2. Letting the momentum slide after Cotterill left. That was tantamount to going down again immediately. We needed him and his style so we should have run the club finances to nothing to keep him. Not as much as above, but another chance wasted.

 

i wished peter trembling sold the club back to the fans, i think it would have been ran more professionally without half of the heartache caused. i know this may upset some, or make nasty bitter people cross but i would rather have the armstrong guy back as the chairman than to see the club fall in the way it did.

I agree, Mick Walker left Notts too early and wasn't able to bring his squad out more.

I feel if we had of kept him things would have turned out much differently, it might have even seen us return to the top flight.

Excellent answer @hissingdwarf I couldn’t agree more. :clapping:

I would have ensured Sam Allardyce had a longer contract and included a clause which mean't any interest would have to pay a steep fee in order to get his release. Big Sam could have returned Notts back to the old Division One no problem.

Somehow I would change all the relegations we have had over the years, perhaps it's the managements fault or the finger falls on the owners.

It just makes me feel sad seeing such a club like Notts, with all its potential playing in League Two.

I want to joke about choosing to support Notts but I have very limited options otherwise.

Following the club is also more rewarding than being a glory supporter, I won't say this. I think preventing Munto would be my call or perhaps finding another owner to continue the success we had back then.

"Strive not to be a success, but rather to be of value."

I would stop owners from playing with fans and getting everyone all excited over signings until they are done and dusted. I came on here about 5ish and thought by 7 we would have had this signing people are going on about.

Oh oh oh ohhhhh, everywhere where we go, watching super County putting on a show!
