http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/21338533 McLeish has left Nottingham Forest 'by mutual consent' after just 6 weeks. WTF?
I don't keep track of English football but were they doing ****e? That's a pish phrase "mutual consent" someone comes up with the idea first!
He tried to sign that kid Boyd, Forest had him in for 10 hours before knocking him back for an "eye" issue he has had all his life, McLeish was livid. There must be something else on top of that but that's the drama that happend recently
...and he'd do a good job. Would've been happy if he got the Scotland job, too (although, I am very happy that Strachan got it)
My cousin is a Forest fan - was not impressed by the appointment or the performances of the team under McLeish (4 defeats and only 1 win in 7). But general consensus is that the owners are absolute loonies - McLeish was the 3rd manager THIS season!
Dev , so nice you liked big Eck, wise up stop your love in. Or are you really at home. Big Eck was found out, without cheating and conning and without special relationship between his club and the men in charge, he just couldn't cut it.
Actually Dev probably gets more abuse on this board than any other Celtic fan. Are you jealous Hoopy?
I like big Eck. The only thing about him is he seems to be better at coming into and giving the team a lift. By this I mean he's better at managing someone elses team. He did this at Motherwell with Tommy McLean's team and Hibs. At Rangers he came in and took over Advocaat's squad. His transfer buys ranged from the sublime to the ridiculous: Dada Prso or Egil Ostenstad anyone. He took over Smith's Scotland team and kept it ticking over nicely I'm sure he would have sorted out Forest, but to be honest he deserves a better club than that. It's their loss.
