Your Thoughts On The Current Nottingham Forest Manager

[Alf Garnett]

I have a feeling that MON may walk away at the end of the season. I think he even hinted at it in his first interview when he got the job. I remember him saying something like 'if I cannot do the job then I will happily stand aside and let someone else have a go'.

Yeah he said pretty much that, I see him as a man of integrity so if he doesn’t walk then is he is something different?

I think that referred to his 18 month contract.

Of which, he's had about 12 weeks-ish.

Aitor had a year and he came in half way through a season where Forest were tailing off.

Funnily enough, MoN has come in half way through a season where Forest were tailing off.

Spot a pattern?

Forest have to break the pattern and stick with it.

SA.

So, who trusts MON to spend the wonga in the summer and build a promotion winning team for next season?

Not many judging by the latest poll, only 7 out of 28 fans on here say to stick. Just over half went for twist too, pretty bad figures for a forum that’s fairly keen on stability.

depends who is actually recruiting the players.

I have noticed though that many people who voted stick on the first poll haven't voted on the second poll, me included.

Good answer Jock!

stuart pearce is urging patience

"You have got a manager there with a rich history of being successful of wherever he's been," Pearce told talkSPORT. "He knows the club inside out, so does Roy [Keane].

"It's the time to be patient at Nottingham Forest and I've said that time and time again. I said that when I was the manager there. By chopping and changing your manager or even suggesting it isn't helpful to the football club."

[Sniffer Dog (Admin)]

It's okay knowing the club inside out but it's a results business and any manager needs to win football matches.

I doubt they know the club inside out anyway, they have both been away for donkey's years.

Not in the slightest. I keep seeing people go on about stability, how is ripping squads up every 6-12 months in anyway stable? Get a manager more suited to getting the best out of the key players we spent a lot of money on over the last 12-18 months: Carvalho, Lolley and Grabban, not one of them has flourished under MON and not one of them fits his style, so he gets rid of them and spends £20m on his idea of a "football" team and then what happens when he's failing next season? Sacked again and probably for a manager who likes technical players, because you know Marinakis is likely to go for that type of head coach/ manager next time. We can't keep letting managers change the style of the team to the extreme. We have a good basis for a team who passes and keeps the ball, keep working towards that, that's how we achieve stability, not by handing Martin O'Neill a 12 month contract and a licence to rip the squad to bits.

Yes I agree with this completely and if we keep MON this is exactly what’ll happen. With FFP we can’t afford to rebuild the team and make massive losses on carvalho and grabban. The way to succeed next season is to bring in 4/5 quality additions to complement what we have
