NOLAN TURNED DOWN DONS
10/12/18
Kevin Nolan says he turned down the AFC Wimbledon job and admits he spoke to Notts County's owner about a potential return.
Nolan told the Times: "I had to be honest with them. It would have been tough. I would have been a long, long time away from my family again and it would have taken a lot of hours to get it where it needed to be."
He described the news of his sacking by Notts County owner and chairman Alan Hardy as a "slap in the face" but, after Kewell was sacked, Nolan admits they "had a chat".
"That was it," he said. "At no time in my eyes was it an interview and I didn't go and see him because I wanted the job back. I don't think I needed to sell myself. People can probably read between the lines, but it never got to dotting the i's or crossing the t's."
