Stand-in skipper “Casual” Kelvin Wilson has become the first Forest player to speak out in support of his beleaguered boss. You already know that I find the whole situation distasteful, but what exactly do we gain from this? Do you ever see players coming out in this situation saying, “I think the boss is a fool – if the chairman had any sense, he would have sacked him long ago”?
I do genuinely think that most of the current squad like Calderwood, but it is also in their professional interests to say so, as new managers usually bring in new players – in Casual Kelv’s case, he might not get in the team under a new man, let alone be captain.
