TBF, the "exciting" games were the ones like Chelsea, which we lost, and were only exciting because they were totally, utterly, and completely representative of how a rookie would manage - like some weird Sherwood-esq 'maverick' stuff.

I think we had more exciting games under Mourinho

I thought we had some exciting games under Conte, certainly in his first season.

Mark my words, Forest will be the next prime example of an owner running a club into the ground purely because of his own ego, hubris and "sense of power" rather than a misguided attempt to benefit the club in any way.

As bad as ENIC have been for us at times, I've never got the sense they've done these things personally, any issues we've had have been down to incompetence rather than spite as far as I'm concerned.

There is zero footballing reason to sack a manager who had them challenging for Champions League qualification last season simply because he "fell out" with him in favour of a guy who was a rival club's worst manager domestically for decades.

No owner with a proper care for the club they run would publicly confront the manager on the pitch after a poor performance or hell, even in front of the players in the dressing room.

I fully expect Marinakis to be to Forest what Chanseri has been to Sheff Wed, it might not happen right away, but I believe it will happen.

The people I feel the most sorry for are Forest fans, with what they've been through for years they don't deserve shit like this.

Agree with that apart from the Forest fans part.

They've been talking alllll sorts of shit about us since MGW saga.

I'm going to enjoy watching them suffer.

I don't really think it's accurate to say that anyone is upset that we won, more that they're upset that Ange is getting credit for it that they don't think he deserves .


You can only assume that the people still banging on about his wondetful style of football didn't actually watch us at all. Outside of the first 10 games where nobody including our players knew what was going on, it was all very mundane.


No, Spurs had enough talent to not go down, but he still gave it a good fucking go! That there are people actually suggesting that this Forest squad is equal to or better than ours shows just what a fucking number him and his group of idiots did on our players.

If he can take us to 17th then he's more than capable of taking them down!

Well, the upside is if that happens it will finally remove any question people have about his system working in the Premier League.

Going to get a lot of “told you so” on here after today’s result, massively disregarding the fact that there is a massive difference in the strengths of both sides. Is there a world where anyone expects Forest to go to that lot and get a result? Very unlikely.

And the “told you so” posts will undoubtedly come from those who said we’d fail to get past Frankfurt, then fail to win the Europa, then insist Ange had no chance at another top league job.

Maybe give him a wee while longer in the role before anyone can claim to be proved correct or not.

Under Nuno Forest could have gotten a draw away to them, 1-1, maybe lose 1-0.
Under Ange, no chance.
