    If you think we were bad on Tuesday, watch Forest tonight! <doh>

    Strangely his side is not defending very well (no ****, Sherlock)....and Ange is heading for another ignominious defeat.

    They have improved 2nd half but still losing (with help from a terrible ref).

    But Gibbs-White is class....Now I'd be more than happy to poach him in the NY.

    Booed off at FT after chants of 'sacked in the morning'.

    He always had his work cut out for him, taking over from Nuno who was very popular among Forest fans.

    But it seems they're learning quicker than we did that the man is a complete fraud.

    I wouldn't go that far! <laugh>
    But equally, I'm not surprised at how things have gone there and I've got absolutely zero sympathy for him taking that job in the first place.

    I don't know whether the Greek connection clouded his judgement, but FFS, anyone would be a fool to work for that Owner! <doh>

    Relegated this season, wins the Championship next season, keeps up his second season trophy record then.

    Cut-price move for Morgan Gibbs-White in the interim

    Certainly need to be ready for a serious
    offer if Forest are not doing well in the
    PL and EL by the time of that transfer window
    (and of course Spurs PL campaign looks
    like EL qualification at the least) .

    So the FFP is obviously biting, if some are
    calling for an "alternative system" .

    Owner investment into stadia and training
    facilities are ok as is.

    I would be happy with cash injection into
    transfer/wage coffers as a loan, as long as
    each such loan is repaid in full by say 5 yrs.

    Doing an "on paper" subtraction of the loan
    balance at due date from the club P/L, if that
    hypothetical balance puts you in violation of the
    FFP rules then you can be punished as though
    the degree of violation occurred via other means.

    Can't think why Villa and Newcastle have been so vocal in their criticisms...

    He will be long sacked before their relegation is confirmed.

    Think their chairman is already regretting the appointment

    They watched us that’s why

    and his first 10 games for us were magnificent so we were duped into believing in him for the long run

    still a legend for delivering us the Europa but no way is he ready for the Prem

    Semenyo’s value keeps going up by about £5m each week.

    Genuinely think he’s becoming one of the best wide forwards in Europe, if he’s not already one.

    We all knew that the Claret filth would lose to the Woolwich, but they're making the rules up now.
    A penalty for a foul outside the box because the Goon fell on his opponent after it? Really?
    Michael Oliver is somehow getting worse, despite not even being on the pitch.

    Bayern with another tough start in the Bundesliga.
    1-0 up in Frankfurt after a long 15 seconds.

    I thought they looked quite ragged for large chunks of that game. How Utd next at home do it'll be interesting if that one does not go according to plan...
