Perhaps any incumbent needs to bring in strikers and wingers and CMs with goals in them to make a squad more 'usable' or to score 'more' goals.
If Forest are the 'alcoholic' with a manager problem (20 years and counting, I'd say there was a problem) then Hughton is rehab'. The changing managers 'some fans' are part of the problem.
Safety secured. Building a promotion winning side is the next step.
We'll see if any momentum, confidence and meaning are forthcoming. (But I can see the fresh roots of recovery. Others may see the apocalypse depending on how they read tea laves or drink their larger. We won't be going any further than lower mid-table without significant recruitment. I dare say that means jettisoning any lingering romance with Sabri's recruitment or Aitor hangovers).
For now? It can't be any worse than bottling the play offs or losing 6 games in a row or having no preseason or using a dart board for recruitment. And I'd be deluded if I thought this season was anything but repair following a dysfunctional Summer of 'fallacy.' For anyone who watches Quest/EFL, how many teams are playing this mythical sexy football? Of the few that are? They came from another universe of funding and consistency. (The latter being entirely alien to Forest as they've not been very stable in managers for the last...)
For the Summer to come? The breaking of the dawn.
I'd rather Forest do it how Brighton did it than Forest did it under Sabri.
SA.
sorry SA it's good you feel glass half full, and yes things could be much worse, i guess ideally we go forward from now with the same manager and achieve accolades, but are we absolutely convinced this will happen, i think for me i'm convinced it won't happen and for whatever reasons i am bored of football generally, all managers seem to be about is getting good at running down the clock, and slowing the game down when it suits them, i see no other influence at all on the game at all sorry, i keep meaning to stop bothering to even think about this tedious garbage
I get where you’re coming from, I think. We were in lockdown, it was rubbish, but football re-opened and was supposed to give us something to cheer. But it continued its decline into ‘game management’ and players diving at every opportunity. There’s been loads of death, loss of freedom and the players are given a privileged opportunity to entertain us but they play their stupid games instead of acting like men.
And to top it off our manager serves up utter gruel, match after match after match. I know he’s just targeting results, but it’s like a personal insult as a fan, saying I don’t care what I make you watch, even now, when people need some cheer more than ever.
Maybe you guys aren't watching other teams matches but this is exactly the same style of football that most teams are playing. Everyone is tired and it's been a tough season, its not a normal season.
