RE: Your Thoughts On The Current Nottingham Forest Manager - Sniffer Dog (Admin) - 16-09-2021
If we wait for you Widdow to appoint a new manager we will wait forever.
We are still waiting for your left back from a club playing in the Europa League and your winger from abroad :)

Normal story, get targeted, agree deals with player (so not wages) but the owners wouldn’t pay the transfer fee !
They have given up with the club and now folk can see why I say it’s bad on and off the pitch
RE: Your Thoughts On The Current Nottingham Forest Manager - Widdow - 16-09-2021
My choice would be Ian Evatt

Told you it would end in tears, no hindsight with me.
Forest need to consult me for the next appointment
Most managerial appointments end in tears Widdow :cry:
Nice to see our 'fans' once again rejoicing in our own demise, just so you could say I told you so.
You're right.
And you did.

Randall made these comments only a month ago:
We have an outstanding manager and backroom staff who know what it takes to succeed at this level.
Not only is Chris’s record exceptional but he has an unparalleled reputation in football and we were the envy of a number of Premier League clubs in securing his services.

Not cleaning 'crepe' off the ground is a small indicator that all is not rosey. (and a Segway to...my next point)
6.5 our forum said of our transfer business. Will it be enough to get us out of jail, Widdow?

He did, Username.
But was Forest's backing of Hughton in the last year exceptional? Barely (or not even) a year in the job.
No striker. A year without permanent players. No fullbacks to start the season. No striker. (Unless we count ageing legs.)
Cost cutting team positions vacant as we begin and ship 4 games and 12 points without them. And, (predictably) with lightweight recruitment (6.5 says COYRs transfer forum) going up against Mad Mick, The Anti Christ and soon 'Don't Expect Any Favours' Rowett.
The timing was a poisoned chalice. 14 players that Sabri couldn't do anything with. Players that were thrown out a year later.
I'll thank Hughton for the relegation save.
But the transfer window this year was shocking. No chance of me whacking myself blind this year.
And did I say no striker? Forest always had a striker (I don't recall them being 'that old.) Collymore. Hoidong. Johnno. Marlon. Grabban got 20 but that was now years ago. He's old.
What's happened to us?

*On the couch.
"So, SA. You're a Forest supporter? You say? Tell me about your father..."
"Well, it started in 76 or 77...(was it 78...) with Kenny Burns getting Ian's vote for Player of the Year."
"hmm...interesting. Go on..."
"I asked Ian (a friend at the time)...why is Kenny Burns getting Player of the Year..? It started with him. Ian got me into Forest."
"...*Nods. I see. It goes back to your child hood...Let's book some further sessions for you now. This could take some time to fathom..."
"...and then the Gary Birtles pannini sticker sticker...I had the whole team...but it was Gary Birtles...no matter how many packs I bought...I couldn't find him..."
