To maintain and improve
So what does CC need to do? Straight away, we need a new keeper. Rune is OK for the bench and did well at the end of the season but Gerrard commanded his area in a way that Pedersen does not. Full backs: Bennett and Curtis are good but if they are out I have [...]

Link to my blog, which links to BBC article about the appointment of CC as manager.

He’s got some success under his belt. He knows the lower leagues. He, apparently, likes to play it on the deck. He is “up-and-coming”. He has had to deal with pressure (Northampton fans regarding promotion as the bare minimum for the season just gone). He is inexperienced (although he has more than Platt or Keane). [...]
Read More...What do they take us for?
I am loathe to criticise the running of the club too often – I wouldn’t expect Nigel Doughty to come into my office and tell me how to run a Higher Education survey and what I should be spending my annual budget on. But the PR of the club is an absolute disaster. I cannot [...]

I’m normally a live and let live kind of guy. But I’m staggered at this. And this. Look at the names linked to the job. None of the big names are in contention. Mick fucking McCarthy turned us down. O’Neill, who has more reason than most to come to Forest, hasn’t turned us down yet [...]

We all know Forest are bad at PR. But why would you preannounce the announcement date for season tickets? The only reasons I can think of are: It is bad news (price hike) It is a hint about the date of the manager’s appointment in the face of relentless Martin O’Neill speculation It is both [...]

Martin’s wife wants to move back to Nottingham and Martin’s been interviewed today. Doughty is preparing his last push with a big wad of cash for the next manager. Colin Calderwood’s been given permission by Northampton to talk to us and is due for an interview. Roy Keane’s turned us down after being interviewed twice. [...]

This may be an inconceived post. It’s a bit of a gut reaction and I’ve not thought it through. But what the hell … I was reading this comment: http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=12478668&postID=114709600056300218 on the Never Trust a Hippy site. And it got me thinking about Forest in the Premiership. You see, people despise Chelsea because of some [...]

Hard luck to the Bengali Boys at the weekend. Especially Marlon “for England” Harewood with that shot at the end. And hard luck to the Arse tonight. Especially as Wenger has finally realised after eight years in England that Arsenal are, and have always been, all about defending. But it was good to see Mr [...]
