21st Century Fox Posted 5 February 2013 Posted 5 February 2013 My mate shagged his daughter at uni, true story! Who else read that without bothering to read the quote above it? :eek:
ealingfox Posted 5 February 2013 Posted 5 February 2013 Like many others, I am also quite gutted about this, because again there is now the danger that they'll get someone decent in. But hopefully it will just be Steve Kean or Mark Hughes.
Alexikokopops Posted 5 February 2013 Posted 5 February 2013 Pulling off the spectacular feat of making Venky's look better organised ANOTHER BIG ECK-XIT Last Friday, Nottingham Forest's chairman, Fawaz Al Hasawi, insisted there was no problem between himself and his manager Alex McLeish. Wearing an "I Heart Alex McLeish" T-shirt while standing in front of a backdrop comprised of a big picture of himself and the Forest boss skittishly riding over a rainbow on the back of a unicorn, the Nottingham Forest chairman was eager to dispel rumours of a rift between the pair due to Al Hasawi's refusal to sign George Boyd on deadline day after the Peterborough striker failed to ace an eye test. Yes, that George Boyd, a footballer so visually impaired , presumably by using his heightened sense of hearing to get wind of his guide dog barking the goal co-ordinates from the sideline."Alex and I talk every day, at least twice a day," said Al Hasawi. "We have a very good working relationship and it troubles me greatly that people think otherwise." This morning, what was presumably the first of the pair's daily pow-wows ended with McLeish clearing his desk and leaving the City Ground "by mutual consent" a mere 40 days and seven matches after he'd been given the job. He'd replaced Sean O'Driscoll, who was sacked on Boxing Day for the heinous crime of only beating Nasty Leeds 4-2. Under McLeish, Nottingham Forest were finally starting to find the consistency Al Hasawi had claimed was lacking under O'Driscoll, failing to win all but one of the Scot's seven matches in charge. "Both parties entered into the relationship in good faith, however, there was a difference in the understanding of the development strategy of the football club and it was felt by both parties that we should part company," said McLeish in a statement, which seemed like a polite way of saying "this Saudi lot are a bit nutty and not even I'm desperate enough to work for them". Now seeking their fourth permanent manager since taking charge of the two-times Big Cup winners (they sacked Steve Cotterill shortly after buying the club) a little under seven months ago, Al Hasawi and his co-owners have pulled off the spectacular feat of making Venky's at Blackeye Rovers look better organised than an OCD-sufferer's desk tidy. "I'm bitterly disappointed," said Al Hasawi in the wake of McLeish's departure, echoing the sentiments of most Forest fans in the wake of his arrival. But for all McLeish's dour 9-1-0 tactical innovations and apparent determination to suck the life out of every football club in the Midlands, he's always struck the Fiver as a nice guy whose little-known passion for arthouse cinema (no, really) means he probably knew the unlikely union between a ginger former Pope's O'Rangers centre-half and a family of intrusive fridge magnates from Kuwait could never, ever be. If the immediate aftermath of this morning's meeting between McLeish and Al Hasawi was such a movie, it would be filmed in black and white by Jean-Luc Godard, soundtracked by a hauntingly listless musical score composed by a man who smokes too much and makes love angrily, and it would star a forlorn and boyish short-haired Frenchwoman. But it wasn't, so it probably just featured an exasperated Scotsman shaking hands with Andy Reid then putting a box in the boot of his car. But Forest fans can take one positive from the latest shambles to befall their once proud club. While their next manager could be anyone from Richard III's skeleton to Cookie Monster from Sesame Street, at least they know it's unlikely to be Alex McLeish. From here
Corky Posted 5 February 2013 Posted 5 February 2013 The decision to sack Cotterill looks harsher by the day. They were shit under him but at least they had consistency.
Wycombe Fox Posted 5 February 2013 Posted 5 February 2013 Ex-MP Chris Huhne is on the shortlist apparently. At least he'll come with three points
Corky Posted 5 February 2013 Posted 5 February 2013 Sven won't go there they haven't got a pot to piss in in terms of money they are skint. They'd love Sven. He knows how to beat their biggest rivals, which Forest have forgotten how to do.
Happy Fox Posted 5 February 2013 Posted 5 February 2013 Talk of the Red Shite appointing jimmy floyd hasselbaink continual laughing stock

Oh, the sweet sweet karma. This toerag of a club gets everything it deserves.
pSinatra Posted 5 February 2013 Posted 5 February 2013 Is it a bit weird posting a photo? Is it weird that you have a picture of your mate shagging Dan Petrescu's daughter?
steveherbe Posted 5 February 2013 Posted 5 February 2013 Ex-MP Chris Huhne is on the shortlist apparently. At least he'll come with three points Classic, take a bow!!
Ashley Posted 5 February 2013 Posted 5 February 2013 Apparently Forest had three or four players lined up in January Al Fawaz said you can have 'the players you want IF you sign these two Kuwatie players' turns out the Kuwatie players were family members of Al Fawaz.. Mcleish said they weren't good enough blah blah blah... Mcleish didn't get his players.
Corky Posted 5 February 2013 Posted 5 February 2013 Ahah. Ahahaha. AHAHAHA. AHAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Now their owner is foreign, theyve had 4 managers in a year and despite spending millions, they're in freefall. Oh, the sweet sweet karma. This toerag of a club gets everything it deserves. Oh right, he's happy to gloat about having English owners whilst loving the Scottish manager then?
Guest Bilo Posted 5 February 2013 Posted 5 February 2013 This is hilarious. Forest have managed to find the only Kuwaiti businessmen in recorded history who are brassic! Fantastic! Who the hell would take over that job now? Billy Davies is odds-on favourite but with his penchant for spending money, the ability to start an argument in an empty phone box with no money and insane owners, he probably wouldn't be manager by the time we come to visit.
Happy Fox Posted 5 February 2013 Posted 5 February 2013 Follow Fawaz AL Hasawiâ€@Fawaz_alhasawi The challenge is big but we have a strong vision. Rest assured we WILL return Forest to its former glory. #nffc What a deluded w**ker
RedHux Posted 5 February 2013 Posted 5 February 2013 Strong vision....poor choice of words there fawaz..
Carl the Llama Posted 5 February 2013 Posted 5 February 2013 Strong vision....poor choice of words there fawaz.. Ha, I didn't notice that until you pointed it out. Fawaz is the ultimate troll, can we have a Fawaz version of for further trolling behaviour?
