I saw Forest described yesterday as akin to "an aggressive startup".

You can't argue with their achievements in recent seasons, relatively speaking.

They are ambitious, and look to act accordingly.

Ultimately though you need a bedrock of stability and they do not have it. I thought at the beginning of the season that I would not like to trade places with them, and I'd be uneasy as a supporter there. Their opinion might be different though, after a generation spent in The Championship.

Postecoglu is a poor appointment I think. It looks a very poor fit given his tendency to throw tantrums and sulk. It is destined to not last long.

Agree with this. Also, better teams than Notts Forest have struggled when having additional European fixtures to deal with after an absence from European competition. I can see their league form dropping off considerably
 
Here and elsewhere, people are ripping into Postecoglou without context and their narrow view of how football is.

I look forward to slapping everyone on the head over how wrong they are.

It's like Jason Cundy has 100 aliases on the web. Hopeless.
 
My View on Ange is based on what I seen at spurs. A manager with a really talented team but trying to make them play in a way which they couldn’t. Also being too stubborn to adapt to the shortcomings.

In many ways his time at spurs reminded me of Martinez at Everton
