Oliver Glasner - Welcome To Nottingham Forest

[Sausage Roll]

The Scum reckon Glasner will be on £13m a year at Forest.

Thanks. So back at you, regarding whether EM and OG will get on. What do you think really caused Glasners outburst in January? Is he just sensitive and prone to stamping his feet if things don’t go his way? Or was it more specific that he is fiercely ambitious and he was frustrated that Palace weren’t meeting those ambitions? Honest answer welcome.

A mix of a number of things; not getting enough players to cover the Prem and Conference League and the final straw being the sale of Guehi.

The Sunderland defeat wasn't Glasner's finest hour. Not subbing anyone and saying it was down to having no one available on the bench (wrong) then saying the owners was a childish act. That won't go down well with your owner if it happens at Forest.

But despite that he will always be a Palace legend.

So lets get this right, We've just sold one of our best players and we are still currently rudderless without a head coach/manager so you would've imagined confirmation of Glasner would've settled it a bit and with pre-season quickly approaching and in reality no signings even close. I'm hoping I'm wrong but Pre-season is going to be a rough ride.

[Sausage Roll]

We don't *know* that no signings are close. And it's better that we've done this now than in a few weeks time or after the first half-dozen games of the season.

There are obviously reasons we don't know about why it's not been announced yet. I imagine these contracts are incredibly complex and take a while to pull together.

Ok are we the only club to do everything in private with transfers because it seems to me that every club is being reported of wanting to sign someone except us. Not even a smell of a signing. With the manager side of it what would the reason of releasing a manager without being extremely close to having another one pretty much signed. I'm sure it don't take long in any employment situation for it to take this long. Plus the fact Glasner is a free agent it should be even quicker.

It would be nice to have things confirmed - both the Anderson sale and glasner appointment do seem to be taking their time. Usually we are very quick at announcing a replacement manager

[Sausage Roll]

We've been linked with loads of players. Also who, apart from Spurs, has done much business in the Premier League?

And ultimately there's no point in getting annoyed about it because the amount you can influence it is precisely zero. Stuff will happen when it happens.

I get the concern but as others have said there must be reasons why no official announcement has yet been made. Also look at the Maresca appointment at City as an example. It was widely reported, as it has been with Glasner and us, that he would be the next manager after Pep but that took a while to be formally announced. If what others have said is true as well, then this isn’t a knee jerk reaction and has been being worked on for some time.
As for transfers. Yes lots of specualtion in the press about who other clubs might sign and yes, there has been activity by likes of Spurs. There has though been plenty of speculation/links to players for us including Jones, Bergvall and the South African defender. I’m sure now Anderson’s move is done and Glasner is through the door that we will start to see things happen.

All the evidence suggests that they only reached a verbal agreement with Glasner very late on Tuesday night. Contracts will have to be drawn up and both parties will have to agree the details and the small print.

I can't imagine any announcement will take place until that's all sorted, signed & sealed. But, he is probably now in place and becoming acquainted with the place, players etc.

Plus it won't be just him we'll have to go through that with but with his backroom staff too.

Anyone know who that's likely to be BTW? Can't say I took much notice of who worked with him at Palace.

Different situation with Chelsea who have just done a deal with City as they believe Maresca was nobbled to replace Pep
