The amount of tourists in this crowd, so many phones in the air it's like a Taylor Swift gig

TBF to Soumare he's been tracking back all night covering runners, he can't be everywhere.

Okoli should never have been dropped. Ndidi and Soumare in the middle just works better than Winks & Soumare. Get 2 more goals then bring on Monga to properly take the pi$$

No. As I've said elsewhere and that Jake fella from the podcast was saying similar on Talksport last night, Forest bought 40 players, took the risk of a deduction and stayed up. They established a foothold again and built on it. If they now get European cash and also expand the City Ground they'll never have to worry about deductions again. If we've truly decided to avoid PSR by accepting relegation as a better bet then it's another shocking decision from the people at the top. The Prem is where the money is, there are no profitable EFL clubs, just the opposite, and I can't imagine anyone at King Power wants association with a lower league team.

Ashworth is out of work but you've got to go look for upcoming candidates too. The next Paul Barber or Jason Wilcox because we aren't getting the current ones.

He's been referred to as a leader for 2 years yet barely been played. Like most bench players he probably just wants to go somewhere he's played regularly. If I'd been dropped for Wout Faes I'd have walked to a new club. Didn't do too much wrong in that last spell he played and at least he doesn't just wander off up the pitch like the Belgian Bombscare.

There were bizarre ideas about spinning the pitch 90 degrees but that's what I mean about buying up the houses and just giving it a bigger footprint. It just needed backing, no-one can look at Burnmoor & Filbert Street now and think THAT looks better than a football ground. It may have been past it's sell by date but thats why you develop the stamds. Everton will find with BMD just like we did with Filbo, West Ham did with Upton Park and so many others did with their grounds, you never get the character and the soul back. It's why Liverpool developed Anfield and why so many don't want United to leave OT.

No it would have been boxier stands closer to the pitch with a better old school atmosphere. It'd not so much the character as the general set up.

I can only think the 300m losses so far are going to be backed up by another year seriously in the red. The plan is accept relegation is coming but try to make the losses seem more.......acceptable? Nothing else makes sense.

Yeah but mid PL isn't where we're headed. They'll be looking at stocking us up for Mid EFL.

Our "not got" list would be massive.

The names we used to sign and get linked with and now we're down to Craig Dawson (rumours) The next 4 months are going to be like having a root canal done.

It was the last time I defended him for anything. He was on holiday in Spain and we announced Iborra two days later. Takes his holidays at Selhurst Park these days.

Pretty sure there's a few on here that spent 2 years demanding we get him in that are now not so happy to be reminded of it. Big names rarely make good managers and he's just the latest one that maybe needs a couple of years at a lower level making correct decisions and working his way up the ladder. He could end up being the latest guy who can coach but doesn't suit the hot seat.

That's a simplistic view that ignores the poor decisions that took us from challenging the top 6 to never being out of the bottom 6. We're fighting that gap through piss-poor financial management, shocking - utterly shocking - recruitment and contract policy and consistently inconsistent choice of managers. We used to laugh at clubs who were run this way.

Filbert Street every time. Should have been redeveloped stand by stand. Could have built flats on the KP land and moved the residents from Filbo and Burnmoor down there. Tragic looking at the site now. I've spent more years at King Power but it will never feel like a proper home.

This is the route most of our academy lads should go down. Barnes, KDH, Chilwell, Hamza, Stolarcyk to name but a few all got better by spending time with sides playing twice a week, building their strength and conditioning against bigger players week in week out. The exception is probably Thomas who needed a loan but got thrown in the deep end. The lad will struggle to get game time past BEK and Buonanotte and if we do go down we'll need him physically bigger than he looks right now.

8m is nothing these days. Half a Maddison. Fifth of a Tielemans. Less than Cannon.

Potter and Moyes weren't coming here for a reason - no funds. We were basically left with one option - RVN. The only other side offering him a job were Cov. Everyone knows our finances are up the sh!÷÷er right now. He can hardly have been expecting a 50m pot but he will have wanted foreign loans or a couple of bargains. We'll never know for sure.

Poor guy had to turn off comments on the post 😁

At this stage it doesn't matter. On balance yes but no-one who comes in can get tune from this bunch of gutless clowns. They're clearly not being prepared properly for games but the individual errors and displays show they're also disinterested in trying.

22/23 all over again but these are the ones who were still unsold from that nightmare. Faes, the utter bumble**** was sarcastically applauding fans at home the other week and that sort of attitude is a cancer throughout the whole team. It's shocking but in no way a surprise.

Most of 94/95 But fck me, Faes is making Nicky Mohan's defending look like a Robert Huth masterclass

If we're advocating Daka starting we're really in trouble. He shouldn't be in the squad let alone the team. It shows how far we've fallen that players like him are still here picking up a wage.
