I think Potter is overrated, and has mugged us off again. I actually have doubts he will succeed in the PL again as the game slowly passes him by. Not sure who goes for him, and he feels like the sort of manager you should get at the start of a season. Corberan (god i wish we had gone for him!) does not have PL experience. You do have to respect the clubs view on that, even if i dont agree with it. WBA in the playoffs was a bit of a warning, and it wasnt just down the squad depth. Cooper had some credentials before Forest. This must work for him or he is likely finished. He will be coming into a very different setup to before and can probably plan the approach style in a way he simply couldn't at Forest. Cooper CANNOT play this the same we he did at Forest. If we revert to the structure he used there and we go to 'backs to the wall' almost scared football then he'll be finished pretty quickly. I cling on to hope that he has interviewed well and has a more progressive plan for what is a potentially good baseline squad, and maybe a few clever transfers. Also, clever integration of Nelson, Alves and Braybrooke could be key and rewarding. He could forge out an identity that is in line with what the club wants but is more pragmatic than Enzo. Cooper has his work cut out for him. We have to compete with the bottom half of the league and i don't care if we try and sh1t house the top 6. EXACTLY THIS !! My thoughts on Cooper was worrying back to the walls defending strange formations at times and Yes wish we’d have gone for Corberan too highly rated young manager with so much potential but we’d have to pay up to £4.5m for him and in our current state getting an out of work replacement is better financially but not necessarily for the football, I know if it is Cooper then I’ll be backing him along with the squad as usual 100% !

Overwhelming likelihood is we start 25/26 in the Championship with a points deduction and a transfer embargo. Strap in. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RYM Posted 19 June Share Posted 19 June 2 hours ago, KFS said: Can I say as well that if things were this transparent, we’d all be looking at this very differently? Come out and say that things are shit and we need everyone pulling in the same direction, not this face saving bullshit that it’s about ‘vision’ and ‘growth’. Dare I say that if the fans were afforded proper communication, we could create a real backs against the wall mentality and might have a chance this year. Any danger @RYM To have full transparency you need a culture that wants that. I don’t believe our culture is anywhere near wanting this. The complete opposite in fact IMO. When you look at the clubs own charter against this latest ticket fiasco it shows they don’t care. Even if you just present the fan groups with the prices before they go out it’s a start. It should be the bare minimum that. Any of our fan related comms from the club seem to be word soup. They come across as if they are completely absorbed in their own arrogance and importance. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also Andy Jacobs (Chelsea fan) is fuming with the decision. It remains to be seen but shows the underwhelming and regard Maresca is held in. 12 minutes ago, Nolucklcfc said: Depends what he means by complex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jbflcfc Posted 19 June Share Posted 19 June Look I’m sure the majority of us like ourselves are a little underwhelmed by this, considering some of the names we’ve been linked with. Myself included! Been speaking to a few level headed forest fans who reckon this could be good for us, they say he will make the team fight & will make us hard to break down, looking at some of the results they got against the big clubs in charge. I will back him as I love this weird club but something does need to be done to the hierarchy above, think it’s time for a change? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
