Can we send them to the league one training camp in Slovakia or wherever it was? The lower the budget the better. After all, these lot aren’t premier league level anymore.

Fans will turn so early if this doesn’t work. especially when Fatawu gets halfway into the opponents half with acres of space only to pass back to Justin because “possession”.

Yeah, considering most football players get heavily praised if they can talk like a normal human being in an interview, this is probably the way forward

Let’s get a great manager that’s shit at talking instead of a shit manager that talks great

Is this a bible verse?

Honestly couldn’t give a f if he “talks well”. Pearson spoke well but didn’t bullshit or charm his way through things. He was quite honest and hilarious at times.

When people say “you couldn’t make it up” it really fits for Vardy. His underdog roots, accomplishments and then to end on exactly 200 goals from 500 apps and 13 years since signing… it’s been fate all along.

Neither is not an option as it’s a fact he needs one of these.

If he had got them at least fighting or made it slightly closer it might be worth keeping. But setting records for losses without goals and losing big games like the wolves one by such a margin makes it very difficult. If he stays I’d give him a chance before writing him off in the EFL but I think he’ll be on thin ice. And the board will get even more stick if he can’t cut it in the champ.

The original wording was the best idea. “Clear and obvious”. The refs decision stands unless a clear and obvious mistake was made. If you’re having to look at something 18 times in slow motion from 12 different angles it’s not ****ing clear or obvious. I don’t know how they have messed it up so badly with VAR.

If any forest fan talks to me about European cups I just say sorry I don’t know I wasn’t alive then 🤣 easy retort. But let em have their 15 mins of fame and conference league run.

We’ve been starved of goals and wins so much that one win feels so positive and nice, because for Ruud a win is a rare commodity.

Might have been the case, and we figured it’s a gamble we were willing to take (breaking even in a worse case scenario) with the potential reward being he helps keep us up. let’s be honest we know the higher ups aren’t exactly world class negotiators so this is very possible.

FA cup should give a champions league spot. Imagine how fun the banana skins would be, or a 4th div side knowing they are 6 wins away from a champions league place. Magic

Love Japanese footballers. gerrimin

🤢 Would be an awful appointment. Seemingly held villa back and has spent the past couple of years in the Saudi “pro” league.

A manager that will focus on work rate, pressing, fast attacking. A bit more chaos. If we get a pass it to death type I’ll probably just tune out.

I can cope, I simply tagged them asking for suggestions . If my suggestion is so funny, I’d like to know what is a serious suggestion in their minds. Anyway, let’s agree to disagree.

It’s possible. But the whole reason for a forum is to discuss ideas etc, not to belittle those who wish to do so.

@Adster @fairbanksh I bet you were giggling like that when we put Édouard on 90k a week to sit on the bench, let Perez & Tielemans go for free after huge transfer fees, signed the Southampton back line that shipped 9 against us and traded champions league for championship. In other words, a contribution might be helpful instead of a juvenile laugh react.

I’d argue the bulk of the players we signed and won the prem with would have fit into this bracket of signing though. Of course that was an exceptional circumstance, I will admit. I also think there’s tonnes of players that would sign under those circumstances. Few leagues in the world can pay players over 20-30k a week anyway and those that can, aren’t really the waters we should be fishing in. We seem to perform much better when operating as a lean crew of underdogs / under appreciated gems found in the rough, than the expensive Crown Jewels that turn out to be fake. I don’t know if we sign players based on any sort of data, but judging by our appointment of managers and signings when we came up, I’d be willing to bet we’re hugely behind now on that sort of scouting. Which is why we can’t find gems. To the bolded point - you don’t draw the same targets, you go lower on your list, or find an angle on the data that others aren’t looking as as much. What I’m saying is, we’re lawless right now, at least with a rigid structure you would a) sort out the financial issues and b) put a leash on the idiots that are running the club with little direction or care for financials

Yeah I agree with the addition. If there was a tiered system with clear ways to reach the next tier, the genuinely good players would prove it. And the fakers and / or absolute shite deadwood is wouldn’t get bumper deals.
