We need to talk about Nottingham Forest.

[Seathestars]

I’ve no problem with him, saw us through some bleak times. I know he was paid well but he was under so much pressure.
I also saw him as a guest on some footy show in Africa and he had nothing but nice things to say about Everton and the fans.
I wish him well.

There’s only one Everton manager who I’ve truly despised and that was Koeman.

 

[Rita_Poon]

He`s been on Talksport every week, telling the nation how hard done to he was at Everton, non of it was his fault and how great he is.

Sounds like the same script his pal sam used, the exact same script.

 

[NathDogg]

"He'll never get another PL job" - the clever people.

Oh dear.

Radio DJ they told us. Meanwhile Dyche is now preparing for Porto in the Europa league.

...but, but, but...Dycheball....but, but, but.....dinosaur

Are you two clowns serious

Sorry, my mistake, those massive clubs at home and abroad were clearly queuing up around the block to get an audience with his gingerness the Hoof merchant, and he clearly had his pick of any job he wanted.

Forest are so lucky……

 

[PITA]

He sets his teams out to get a point a game, he has done this in every Premier league game he’s ever managed and is exactly why he’s always floating around the relegation places.
In his entire managerial career of over 300 odd games his teams have scored less than a goal a game, dress that up any way you want but this is a manager who puts his teams in the dog dirt, has no idea how to score goals from open play and relies on defensive luck to get his monumental 1.08 PPG. He’s a defensive coach masquerading as a manager whose last two employers were the clueless Farhad Moshiri and the bloated carvery pest at Forest.

LOL.

Dyche is now preparing for Porto in the Europa league.

On your knees, knaves.

You finally healed up after that exhibition you put on in the womens euro's thread. Good for you, back to business.

 

[Saint Domingo]

Good to see Forest’s level being established as a European team nice and early in writing on here. Will come in handy later down the line when assessing his job performance.

The league table is the reality at the moment. They have 5 points from 8 games. That’s 30 games to get more points than the teams who currently occupy the European places just for you to call it passable. A convenient argument for you as most of yours are.

[Walken]

What context? It seems like some Blues give him a huge pass for underperforming in his second season, even though he wasn’t dealing with the same limitations he had when things went well in his first year.

I'd say he performed just about par first season, was decent second season and bottled it third season and was correctly dismissed

Hang on no, you can’t gloat about him taking over a European team and then say “oh well actually they’re only a European team when the argument suits me”. It doesn’t work like that

Oh yeah, forgot about him.

The league table does work like that. He’s obviously not going to get them into Europe when he’s picking up a team 9 points behind the team in the qualification spots at the moment. Nice try to set the minimum expectation for him as something extremely improbable now so you don’t end up being wrong.

Suppose it’s one way for you to break your streak of utterly tragic incorrect predictions.

You said he’d be a radio DJ. He’s now taking a PL team and welcoming Porto this week. Tune into the press conferences Mikey, maybe he’ll touch his head in a way you can spin as an insult to Everton fans.

 

[Harryflashman]

I think I despise that Farley beaut as much as the FSW

 

[Swartzy]

Do we have any Forest fans on here, cos this thread is on fire.

A happy place for all
