Is he here next year? 

He's here until summer 2025, unless we offer him an extension.

Never in doubt really. We were going to have our ups and downs. I remember a couple of weeks ago a lot of fans wanted Enzo Out. Pathetic part of the fan base who voted yes.

17th will be fine by me next season.

Debatable......

He inherited the most talented Championship squad EVER!  Any half reasonable Manager would have been expected to get this squad promoted.

He'll be judged fully/ properly next season.

Personally I don't think he'll survive up to Christmas!

But, we'll see.

[BillyFOX12]

Survival come next season, will be tough, but we'll make it.

[Happy Fox]

Just as long as we finish above the Redshite.

Can we please refrain from booing Maddison? 

[RowlattsFox]

Crucial we can start planning without worrying about the playoffs. Going to need to clever and exact with any signings. 

[Jattdogg]

Happy to be back. Hope things work out for us given the unknowns.

[Sly]

It could be interesting, as they’ve said Manchester City will also be heard. Let’s hope they get whacked for the points deductions next season as well. That will surely be massively significant. 
 

A good chance Forest and Everton get done again as well, if they stay in the league.

As long as the fans are united as one, then yes.

Forest at home first game of the season 

Promotion has now been confirmed, we need to end the negativity about staying down now.

We can’t even be united the day promotion was confirmed. We’ve no chance of this happening

And Enzo

[Pliskin]

Thank **** for that. 
 

Glad to see the back of this league, it’s like a night on Belgian beers, turns the best of us into monsters.

Give us a 20 point deduction and a transfer ban and watch us stay up!

Typically this would be the Leicester way...

This is silly, cut it out.

 

I was a staunch supporter of Enzo for most of the season, until we threw away a 17 point lead and looked awful for a decent length of time this year. It seemed to be down to Enzo's tactics, and as a result I voted Out. It's okay to praise when things are going well, and criticise when they're not.

 

I'm really proud of this team for getting promoted, and massive credit to Enzo and his team for transforming us. However, lessons need to be learned from that drop off: By the players as much as by our Head Coach.

 

We can enjoy and celebrate this, but let's not forget that those lessons need to be learned. Enzo will be a better manager for it if he does, which I'm sure he will.

 

Anyway, bring on the Premier League again! Fascinated to see how we do.

[UniFox21]

Really hate that pundits make it seem Liverpool have spent nothing, it's such a stupid take when they're up there with the top 4 biggest spenders. £85m they spent on Nunez, more than basically 14 teams have spent individually in years 

 

[Corky]

Cannot wait for that to return again.

[fazzyfox]

Commentary team complaining how flat the West Ham v Liverpool has been, a game moved for TV to 12:30 in a week when Liverpool have had a 200 mph local derby, no I’m not Klopp but can’t they see the hypocrisy, 

[trabuch]

What a terrible goal.

Spot on. The worse thing is that they think all of us are stupid enough to believe their lies.

Liverpool's manager appointment is bizarre, I can't understand it at all. Even if Feyenoord were right now top of the Dutch league with 0 losses it would still be a shocking decision to appoint Slot. Imo they're going to suffer more than Arsenal and Man Utd post Wenger and Fergie era.

Can't agree there, Edwards has been installed as DOF and will be given complete control of recruitment etc. He's brilliant at what he does and only left as FSG gave Klopp more control over recruitment than him. 

 

They'll suffer on the pitch but recruitment wise they'll progress well  

[RowlattsFox]

I like the fact they've chosen a manager who they think fits best and not just joined the merry go round of elite managers. Remains to be seen whether it works.
