Luke Williams decided to go up two divisions after 18 amazing months at Notts County to take on the Swansea City position. Williams takes over a side that has only scored 35 goals in 26 games. Many supporters have urged for a striker to be signed in January to help the club’s play-off chances.
The former Notts County manager has been linked with a transfer for his former Meadow Lane talisman Macaulay Langstaff, who scored a National League-record 42 goals last season.
Langstaff has been a revelation for Williams, spearheading his team’s good start to the season in League Two, scoring 19 goals in his first 26 appearances. Williams, on the other hand, was quick to dispel talk of a transfer, which would come as a comfort to his previous employers.
“This is the king of Meadow Lane we’re talking about,” he said about Langstaff on BBC Radio Nottingham. I want to make sure he’s available to assist them in being promoted.”
