Well said, those that want him gone now will complain when the next manager fails that Kevin Nolan shouldn't have been sacked.

If only real life had a mute button.

Team Kevin like you buddy 

You would have thought fans would have learned the last time the club required support to dig themselves out of a poor situation, it's early days and already people are getting onto Kevin Nolan and hassling Alan Hardy on Twitter.

I don't understand it.

I do believe some fans take enjoyment from starting the chaos that pursues from calling for managers to be sacked, only to moan when it happens.

I agree with that if Notts scored first the game would of been different

If this was anywhere else people would be telling me to change my username here!

I feel sorry for Kevin.

There's some right nasty fans making stuff up about him being an alcoholic and other stuff, these people spreading the rumours have no life.

I'm afraid losing ways can take hold and once the manager has lost his head, it only becomes a matter of time before the sacking happens.

Kevin Nolan is treading on thin ice at the moment.

I don't think people should be calling actively for him to be sacked but its a fair discussion to be had, if Notts don't win soon it will become harder to break and then it might be fairer to debate Nolan's future.

This. The problem we have is the spiralling lack of confidence. When you look at our, quite frankly, poor form from Christmas onwards, then the result is the major dip. The superb start last season masked the second half of the season so the playoffs kept the ‘dream’ alive and fans were happy to be involved. After spending so much this summer, but crucially neglecting the keeper and the defence, then moaners will moan.

There is some validity to their point tbf. The ice is thin at the moment and we need to see some grit and determination from the players and Nolan to ditch Duffy etc... 

Hopefully the loan market will be used and Alan Hardy is sensible enough to,realise his investment is going to be wasted if he doesn’t double down and rebuild the back 5.

Notmhappy with the rumours about Kev liking the sauce a little too much in West Bridgford, but I have no info one way or the other.

Last time we had that issue was Howard Kendall and look how that turned out!

As many know, Kevin Nolan was a no nonsense player and is the same as a manager. We should keep him, he got us to where we were last season and I believe he can turn it round. However, he needs to bring that no nonsense into the team and change the team round and be stricter and tell each player they are being dropped until they can perform better. If he doesn't do this then he shouldn't be safe in the job. 

The thing is all these armchair managers are using that good old standby called hindsight to air their moans and groans about which players we should have bought, where we should have strengthened etc., I didn’t see or hear one dissenting voice when Nolan made the signings and Hardy opened his wallet in the summer, everyone said we were going to walk the league, now the armchair managers are coming out the woodwork and saying we should have done this or that.

As for rumours that Nolan enjoys a drink too many that probably comes from someone who once saw him in a pub with a pint on one occasion. They are just rumours of which I pay no heed.

Don't you dare change your username, @KingKev.I have my  great memories of  Derby's King Kev  from when I was  a lot younger and I want Notts to have their King Kev  to give all you young Pies  great memories when you're as old as I am.Ignore the doommongers,things WILL get better.

Precisely, we can say now we need new defenders but before the season started we needed attackers. Hardy and Nolan bought in attackers. We was happy. They wasn't to know that our defence would be as poor as they are now. 

It's easier to call for change in the hope of a quick fix than it is to invest time supporting the club and manager.
