If he didn't want to be our manager I can't see him wanting the Forest job.

Genuinly feel sorry for him. He was promised money but they refused his transfers. It speaks volumes that the fans were singing sack the board today not singing about Steve

And mon won't go there, they have no money and the board won't give him the free ride he needs

He was promised money and signed a few players for reasonable fees and on big wages. He got his money and he wanted more. I doubt Jonathan Greening, Ishmael Miller, George Boateng, Andy Reid and Matt Derbyshire are playing for free. I'm sure he's a good coach but he is a rank rotten manager. We really did dodge a massive bullet.

I thought at the time they were wrong to get rid of Billy Davies who seemed to have done a decent enough job there in spite of his difficulties with the board.

Its not "Notts Forest".

Nottingham Forest, if you want to speak about Notts just look towards Meadow Lane.

Sorry, my mate is a big forest fan and he bangs on about it, now I'm doing the same as him!

I have had the same treatment too, pig. In Nottingham, "Notts" refers only to one club and they play in black and white.

Yes, I couldn't really work out why he was constantly bleating about no backing when he'd brought those players in - in to a club which made the play-offs last season anyway. Not like the team needed a huge overhaul in the first place.

Who cares, it's easier to type Notts.

Don't see MON going there as he'll not be able to have it all his own way, too restricted for him - he'll end up at Celtic or Sunderland.

I reckon he's hanging around for Sunderland.  The natives are getting restless with Bruce and with Niall Quinn no longer chairman maybe it is time for change there.  Sunderland will be about as good as it gets for MON and a big step down from us.

Repalcement...MON ??

Crackin' shout, given that he's got both History with them, and a proven managerial record in that division.


Nah; Ive just got that feeling that Sunderland is where MON will end-up and it seems that things maybe moving in that direction.

The forest chairman has said that he will leave at the end of the season so MON could, if he plays it right, end up with quite a lot of power at forest.

As much as I cannot stand the bloke for what he did to us, I'd like to see what he could do with them.  They seem a good match for whatever reason.

Yes, but it's like when French people ask me how "Aston" are doing. It's just wrong.

Or the few Italians who do not seem to be aware of the prestigious history of Aston Villa. I tell them we wank as high as any in Wome.
