Despite what anyone says we all know that as a football manager Billy gets the most out of what he's given at this level. He's batshiz mencal and no ones gonna try and pinch him off us.
Pearce would have us a Prem squad for relatively little within 2 years. Plus he'd help keep Davies in line too.
As we found out with MoN, the game's moved on a lot in the last few years so any talk of Billy is just silly.
I don't really want to be discussing Sabri's replacement but between you and I, my preferred choice would be Silva.
Regardless of the manager, I really don't think the game has moved on much at all since 2013. Not in this league.
Did we find out about MoN? I don't think we did.
7th. 8th. 9th.
Two of those managers had a pre-season. MoN did not.
Two of those managers had a full and proper transfer window based off that pre-season.
Two of those managers had had more time and their squad, their team. Their players.
Two of those managers had a clean start at the beginning of the season.
It's not a fair comparison.
Is the football any better than MoN's? Has the Championship 'moved' on vs Aitor or MoN? Or The Coach?
The more things change the more they stay the same...in some ways.
MoN shored up the defence. But due to a lack of attacking options....say....wait a minute....
...aren't Forest still short of attacking options?
What team has only one major quality striker to win promotion with?
We're 8th. A vast improvement on 9th.
