So arguably 6 realistically and probably need to win 4 of those. It ain't happening guys for a side that's lost 18 in 29 so far. 3 wins a couple of draws probably does it. We’ve got 5 six pointers to play. It’s achievable but I don’t think we will. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rupert Von Suckalemon Posted 5 April 2023 Share Posted 5 April 2023 I think Martin O’Neill is a no brainier at this stage of the season. He gets respect from his players, and it’s obvious, they play for him. We will not attract a long term coach/manager that will be immediately exposed to a dog fight. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whether he will be any good time will tell. MON came from Norwich after being sacked after 6 months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm all for it as long as he brings Roy Keane in as assistant. Just for the fun of it really...not with any thought it will help us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s just increased pay off fee Hence my concern about the future if we couldn’t get it across the line Let’s hope that cooper staying as forest coach is because they thought they could get Rafa in but we’ve convinced him to come here.

However, what's better? O'Neill with the current coaching team, or the current coaching team leading it on their own? O'Neill is no tactician, never was and certainly is not now, but he might inject some short-term discipline and motivation? He's a man that players want to impress and that might lift everyone. I don't think Stowell and Sadler are going to do that on their own as they are in too deep. Further proof that Rudkin is utter dogshit at his job Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RowlattsFox Posted 5 April 2023 Share Posted 5 April 2023 MON was a motivator in the 90s, yes the ****ing 90s.. Where is any evidence he can come in and motivate now? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His last record at Forest in the Championship was 42 percent win rate, they dropped out of the play off contention and he was sacked after 5 months. Why didn’t they play for him?

We've done them all this season if MON comes that takes us into Shearer At Newcastle/ Brooking at West Ham / Pearce at Forest territory.

I think Forests approach is sensible. They are in a different mindset to us, up here. Essentially, they all expected to be where they are this season.

Think he was very fortunate with the staff he had at United, those who were already at the club and those he took with him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark 'expert' Lawrenson Posted 5 April 2023 Share Posted 5 April 2023 If we lose Saturday may as well give it to Vardy till the end of the season and look again in the summer.
