Annesleyred1865 137 Posted March 4, 2018 Report Share Posted March 4, 2018 I'm gonna stick my neck out and say we have found a manager that will bring to good times back to the City Ground. He has brought in experienced players who can handle the Championship (2nd Division). Watson Colback and Tomlin actually pass to Forest players and don't panic on the ball. Our previous midfields Osborn Cash Vaughan and Bridcutt couldn't control the play. Having said that Ben has been a decent stop gap at left back and Cash is scoring now. We have a keeper that can deal with crosses (at his height its expected). The players are now talking on the pitch more and seem to be gelling as a TEAM! I know we will suffer a defeat or two before the end of the season as every other team in this league. COYR 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

A defeat or two is an understatement. A win or two is probably more like it. More likely to be battling to avoid relegation given recent results. I wish it were something different but I am getting a bit tired of the cry we are building for next year and we expect to be bidding for promotion. There is something fundamentally wrong at the Forest for them to be so mediocre for so long, I don't know what it is but it is there. Hey, just had a thought how about asking Arsene Wenger if he wants a job! 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
FLY2 10,108 Posted April 22, 2018 Report Share Posted April 22, 2018 We've been building for the future since Paul Hart's demise. Ludicrous ! Edited..... Well actually, a lot longer than that, since Frank Clark left. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
FLY2 10,108 Posted October 31, 2018 Report Share Posted October 31, 2018 Well I'm STILL absolutely fuming ! Last nights game was a perfect opportunity to progress to the next round and maybe draw a Premiership club. What does Karanka do ? Puts out a team of nobodies. Unbelievable stupidity ! Despite some very indifferent results recently, we've played well, and should have had a nights shooting practice, and a comfortable win. I'm absolutely disgusted, and nothing short of automatic promotion will satisfy me now. As I've said previously, Cloughie ALWAYS put out his strongest side, be it a cup game, friendly, testimonial or bottom of the league opposition. It's simple. It's called team building. Grrrrr !

FLY2 10,108 Posted January 11, 2019 Report Share Posted January 11, 2019 Seems as though Karanka has asked to be released from his duties, and has walked out after only 1 year, and two days. A ludicrous situation. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

denshaw 2,871 Posted January 14, 2019 Report Share Posted January 14, 2019 Martin O'Neill to become new Forest manager? 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
philmayfield 6,115 Posted January 14, 2019 Report Share Posted January 14, 2019 After years of trying they've almost got him. Great news! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
LizzieM 9,507 Posted January 14, 2019 Report Share Posted January 14, 2019 I’m pleased about this news and hope everyone gets behind him and he’s given the chance to make Forest great again. I knew him when he arrived in Nottingham as a very shy Irish teenager! 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
radfordred 6,284 Posted January 14, 2019 Report Share Posted January 14, 2019 10 years ago yes, but not now a shocking appointment, a backwards step, I just hope he does not bring his mate Keane with him, seasons over anyway, my prediction 10th if we are lucky. Got ticket for Brum away, see if I can get rid. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Oztalgian 3,271 Posted January 14, 2019 Report Share Posted January 14, 2019 I'm with RR we have tried yesterday's heroes in the past without much success, Frank Clark and Stuart Pearce. I liked O'Neill as a player and for the sake of the long suffering fans I hope he does well. There is something fundamentally wrong at the City Ground, does anyone on here know what it is?

FLY2 10,108 Posted January 14, 2019 Report Share Posted January 14, 2019 Frank Clarke did ok for us. We didn't need a Director of Football, that's what the problem is. Look what happened when we had David Pleat for goodness sake. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Rob.L 1,088 Posted January 14, 2019 Report Share Posted January 14, 2019 I’m happy with the signing of Martin O’Neill. He’s served a long enough apprenticeship with smaller teams so should be up to the job now. The key will be to see how he controls the players in the dressing room, as by all accounts that’s where the trouble has mainly been for the previous managers. If he did indeed learn from the master, he will know what needs doing. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
FLY2 10,108 Posted January 14, 2019 Report Share Posted January 14, 2019 I'm certain he'll get their respect, and If there are any trouble makers, then he'll weed them out. We just need players who'll fight for Nottingham Forest, and put this club back I the top flight. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
radfordred 6,284 Posted January 15, 2019 Report Share Posted January 15, 2019 Karanka was the man, he would have got us up in time, feels like we've traded in a pair of Adidas Sambas for a pair of Lonsdale slip on's. I'd be happy if we just beat D*rby home & away & finished 7th every year, the premiership, soulless & lifeless, I'm more than happy in the championship until I pop me clogs ....... U-Reds.

Cliff Ton 10,458 Posted January 28, 2023 Report Share Posted January 28, 2023 Cardiff have appointed a former Forest manager - Sabri Lamouchi. He's their third manager this season, and he lasted around 18 months at Forest. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/64415848 . Quote Link to post Share on other sites
