Seeing Forest succeed is really aggravating. They had one season where they ‘overachieved’. One season where they rolled the dice and were brave in every game, one season where they had a decent striker. That one season could have them in the champions league next season with a Europa title under their belt. But this manager and some fans will keep us shackled to the ‘we’re not ready’ narrative, despite the table suggesting that our squad is better.
We had a wonderful opportunity to be in the box seat for Europe, but the manager’s cowardice sadly will see us finish 13/14th. No proactive subs, starting
Thierno Barry, unimaginative line ups, refusing to play direct young players, keeping Gueye in midfield and not getting
Rohl’s legs on to cover.
We’ll see more clubs leap frog us next summer and put distance between us next season.
