Post your apologies to Frank Lampard here…. (3 Viewers)

Fuck me, we've won 1 game against a very poor Forest team. Youre going on as if we've just won the champions league. Relegation wasnt avoided on game week 5 at Forest away.

Neither was it decided when we lost to Hull or Brighton but you wouldnt have known that reading some posts on here

No. Just not over reacting to previous defeats and got realistic expectations.
 
Opinions on a forum are fine. I personally think we will be relegated, don’t class myself as a bed wetter ( whatever that is) just a realist.
17th this season is success in my opinion.
Sacking the manager after 4 games is also sheer lunacy in my opinion.
He has taken us from the bottom of the championship to the playoffs, then pi**** the league the following season.
Chopping and changing managers gets you nowhere.

Of course it isn’t but the “very poor Forest side” cost an absolute fortune and now is fairly established.

People really need to manage expectations .

I’m not into all this smug nonsense about fans sniping either way as fans are reactionary and say stupid things. Last week Thomas was slaughtered for being shite and this week he’s going to play for England.

We are going to lose a lot more games than we win. I did think the pile in on Lampard about losing the plot, not knowing what he was doing, out his depth as a PL manager was embarrassing. I think the slagging of Grimes is strange as well. It’s clear Lampard wants to develop the players who got us promoted and try with as many as he can to be at a level to compete.

A lot of work was done in the week since Brighton and Villa. The defending was far better and more focussed. Despite people believing Amenda is some kind of second coming we did look comfortable against a lot of pressure.

We revolved the forwards round well in the first half. I’ve been critical of BTA but his work rate was excellent. I think that’s what a lot of the new signings will have to adjust to - the work rate the coaching team demand before selection.

Goal scoring is as big an issue as conceding and we need to be more clinical to have a chance of survival but we are likely to go down and are expected to - most media journalists predict it.

At least we are at fitness and intensity levels where we can compete and it’s really on the Hull game that’s clouded judgement

At Man City he received a rating in the 8's?
 
thats a wind up account
Interesting;
Some bold claims about him being close to the "inner circle"
Glad as I hate to think that there is disharmony behind the scenes (although not naive enough to know that it does happen at most clubs at some point!)
 
I must apologise regarding Saturday, when travelling to the game and the team news was announced, i though OMG he has lost the plot !!
But admire the changes he made and congratulate him and the players on a hard fought 3 points.

Just to add the support was superb, limbs when we scored, the announcement of the VAR decision and the full time whistle was met with more limbs and nice to see the fist bumps from Jay and Frank at the end.

In all a very enjoyable day out 🍺🍺🍺
 
Unhappy players not in squads will not be a shock to anyone who has ever put a pair of boots on. Unfortunately some will be victims of the squads past success that's football. And the only way out of it is to move those individuals on and those friends that are in squads to win games.

You have to embrace those brought in to replace your team mates if you want to move forward. Players like BTA and JDS are proving it, work hard, fight and buy into it and you can make yourself valuable If those moaning feel its unjust, then move on go play in a squad without ambition to be better.

The only way i think different is if a player was promised a place which effected a potential move away only to be told sorry no squad number. This may of happened, but again football is not kind or fun for those in this situation.
 
Oh Keith

 
This is floating around on Twitter today;

Is that Keith who knows the cousin of John who knows the parking attendant at the connection who goes for his lunch at Ryton burger van who bumped into the tea lady at Ryton who told him this ?
 
I am not apologising for anything - we participate in funding that big bentley he has so expect to see effort afforded and consummate results as paying fans. 🤣

By your account changing managers got us from the bottom of the championship to pissing the league…
