The only way is up my friends!
However, it won't happen with the current coach and his team!
What do they do all week on the training ground?
OG HAS TO GO!
Would love to have VP back, but the way he was treated it won't happen!
We need a solid back 4, Williams, Aina, Cunha, Serbinator
We need a strong midfield, Sangare and Murrillo
We attacking midfielder, MGW, McAttee
We need attackers to put the ball in the net, Jesus, CHO or Wood or Delap
We need to get wingers into play, we need Hutchinson back from his loan.
We need to get rid of Ndoye asap, along with OG!

@Marinakis/Syrianos: Pick up the phone and call Pereira now.
01 Nov 2026 10:27:32
Not sure he’s the answer. He’s good in short stints but not a long term option. Thankful for last season and somewhat disappointed he wasn’t given a chance but I think his record probably went against him when Mr M weighed up his options. I do think at this current moment in time we’d have more points than under glasner but long term think glasner is the better manager.
I still fully back glasner, his comments post match yesterday were spot on. If he’s given time (I’m not sure he will be given now) then I do think he’ll be a success. The players have to take some accountability as they’ve been poor and look disinterested. Like I say with time and patience I do think glasner will work but we’ll see what happens!
01 Nov 2026 11:18:11
Interesting post SY. It struck me though that every Forest manager under Mr M has had a short stint mate….. even the successful ones like Cooper and Nuno ( who knows even Vitor ?)…
30 Oct 2026 11:18:42
I think tmoz massive game for glasner he will need to come away with 3 points if he doesn't I think the man city game will be is last with a few week international break Mr M. will definitely pull the trigger.
30 Oct 2026 11:43:30
Marinakis is unpredictable so hard to say.
Vitor Pereira
Current Ambition: In recent interviews (October 2026), Pereira confirmed he is waiting for his next challenge and is eager to make a return to the Premier League, ideally targeting a team capable of competing at the top end of the table.
🤔.
30 Oct 2026 15:58:16
It's one win in 9 with Man City to come after Brentford.
Mr M has sacked many managers with better records.
26 Oct 2026 21:40:28
Top news article.
The new James Bond has been announced.
A 3 film contract over the next 8 years.
Swiss star Dan Ndoye accepts the part and announced due to his lucrative film franchise contract, he won't be able to play for Forest anymore.
Ah, bugger it!
27 Oct 2026 08:16:09
My wife says Ndoye s got the looks. Second only to Felipe apparently.she knows nothing about the football side of things though.
27 Oct 2026 08:18:43
I've heard Ndoye is the new baddie, being an international hit man and never caught. The reason he's never been caught is he gets other people to do the hits, because he's to lazy to do them himself. He still gets paid millions even though he doesn't do the work!
26 Oct 2026 09:14:49
Wonder how much it's cost to replace Brice Samba, how many keepers have arrived since Mr M took against him, more ego than sense.
Samba still doing well in France.
CARLO.
26 Oct 2026 13:11:09
Samba was either brilliant or capable of spectacular errors. He'll always be a legend for his erratic personality and penalty saving heroics.
He d be a liability at set pieces nowadays because he was always pulling and shoving opponents about quite violently at times. A gift for the VAR jobsworths.
26 Oct 2026 13:48:43
Carlo, I think we are lucky to have Sels who imo is a much better keeper than Samba. Brice would also be struggling for a first team spot against the keepers we've had since promotion. I'm thinking of Henderson, Ortega and Navas for example mate ?
26 Oct 2026 17:54:24
Not seen him lately but I suspect he,s matured quite a bit.
He's been No 2 for France for a few years now and can't see him holding that spot down if he,s still erratic.
Sels was apparently a bit dodgy in his time at Newcastle but possibly like Samba he,s better in his 30,s.
Still think it as a mistake at the time to push him out, I remember him being dismissed in his last few months and when he'd served his suspension he came back seemingly have learnt his lesson.
CARLO.
26 Oct 2026 18:11:11
Yes, I remember him calming down after his suspension Carlo and perhaps a few wise words from Steve Cooper.
I must admit ive never seen him play in or for France mate.
26 Oct 2026 19:56:47
Nice to have a civilised football debate Stokie even though we're not quite on the same page,see it can be done.
CARLO.
27 Oct 2026 08:08:34
Don't you start mate.🙄🙄😂😂😂.
27 Oct 2026 08:16:52
It's like being married on here sometimes.😂😂😂😂.
27 Oct 2026 08:58:29
60 years next year Stokie,think they call it Diamondi in Forest circles, never had one argument 😇😇🤭
CARLO.
27 Oct 2026 18:30:10
Congratulations Carlo. Married twice. First one 13 years, second one 17 years and counting. Never won an argument and scarcely got a word in edgeways. i work on 2 principles mate
Firstly, the lady is always right as they are invariably wiser than us
Secondly, as per the song " if you can't love the one you want Love the one you're with”
😂😂😂🥰🥰😎.
27 Oct 2026 22:47:48
The word "Yes” Stokie, on the other hand I,ve been with Forest longer 🏐🏐⚽️⚽️🎈
CARLO.
28 Oct 2026 10:37:12
Yes, me too Carlo. Forest since I was 9, nearly 70 now.
28 Oct 2026 11:43:29
1957 Stokie 1.3d to go in 3d program, 2 kids pens,kop and Trent end, often able to watch us from attacking end both half's, all inside gates open half time. Some big attendances in those days,we always came out to the Robin Hood tune just as the arrow hits the tree, can still Jack Burkitt's bandy legs coming down the tunnel with the ball under his arm in my minds eye every home game.
PS had already been going to Meadow Lane for a season, Dad said the crowds to big at CG but sneaked off one Sat. saw those garibaldi shirts and that was it but continued going to Notts especially when Hayley was playing, still the best header of a ball I've seen his ability to get so high was unsurpassed.
CARLO.
28 Oct 2026 15:11:28
Well played Carlo. I'm guessing you must be 5 or 6 years at least older than me? In which case, from our brief pre match meet up at the TBI you look much younger mate!
Congratulations on your marriage, love of the Reds and eternal youth ! 👍👍.
24 Oct 2026 23:08:56
Jan window first priority
Sign a midfielder that can take a set piece.
24 Oct 2026 15:24:17
Ndoye needs to be moved on in Jan laziest player I've ever seen how he gets picked in front of CHO and Dominguez is beyond me
McAtee will make a player imo improves every game,
Milenkovic should be benched atm not match fit and out of form imo.
24 Oct 2026 17:13:27
If CHO is the answer, then we are doomed! He's had a couple of purple patches in his time at Forest and is not a regular goal scorer the rest of the time, nor does he get many assists.
Dominguez is a better player than he gets credit for, I agree. McAtee is a good player but in the same way you don't expect Milenkovic to score many goals, you don't expect McAtee to be a midfield enforcer.
25 Oct 2026 10:02:46
If you remember Wood was not scoring goals until CHO and Elanga were persuaded to cross rather than score goals themselves. CHO was at it again Friday night. Delap is the goal scorer and every attempt made to pad to him. Otherwise he is on his own and like Woid before him will score minimal goals.
One can understand the desire for any player to score. What was interesting on Friday was that a wing back crossed and the other wing back scored ! Williams scored because he anticipated Munoz's cross so was in the right position. So sometimes like Wood you have to anticipate a cross.
26 Oct 2026 06:23:13
The Williams goal against Ipswich was a composed finish as the commentary team pointed out on Radio Nottingham, would Williams have been the same at the City Ground where the supporters tension is effecting the players?.
Posted before that Wood should call time on his international duties, but now think this will be the only way to get playing time, bringing Wood on for the last 5 minutes is a bit insulting to the man! Perhaps he will be moved on in January, until then treat him with some respect.
29 Oct 2026 13:21:45
Wood has never relied on pace just instinct and good service, wouldn't get much service at present.
Being 35 shouldn't effect his game at all but sittingon the bench will.
Such a waste of a natural goal scorer with a great heading history in a set up we employ at present.
Hope we done sleep walk to relegation with this non Forest style.
CARLO.
23 Oct 2026 19:17:44
I find it interesting how we chased big Dio the whole summer, clearly our new manager didn't do his homework on a certain young Brazilian lad. Nice one Jair.🌳.
23 Oct 2026 23:39:07
If we are sticking with OG, we need REAL wing-backs. It's a joke getting a boss who religiously plays a system that relies on it's wing-backs for width and crosses and we only have one.
We have a real attacking left wing-back on loan. Sort it out whoever is the "Sporting director" or whatever they are called in this setup.
23 Oct 2026 19:23:23
We paid through the teeth for a new defender, when we had a better one all along. Who starts ahead of the big money buy tonight.🌳.
23 Oct 2026 23:57:00
I think we needed a new CB. But we definitely needed more than one wing back. What were they thinking?
24 Oct 2026 08:39:20
It's good to have quality back up in all areas. Players get injured and suspended, especially defenders.
24 Oct 2026 17:14:32
I'm not just talking about backup on wing backs. You have to have two in the first place BEFORE you talk about backup. But we defo needed backup at CB.
23 Oct 2026 13:54:05
On the left wing-back position (or lack of wing-backs generally.
"He has registered five goal contributions in 20 Serie A appearances so far, and ranks highly for several key metrics among his fellow full-backs.
Cuiabano is in the 89th percentile for assists per 90 (0.25), 94th percentile for line-breaking passes per 90 (4.71) and 87th percentile for chances created per 90 (1.74).
He is also in the 96th percentile for duels won per 90 (8.74), 94th percentile for aerial duels won per 90 (2.36) and 95th percentile for defensive contributions per 90 (9.55).
The Forest loanee has been one of the best players in his position in his respective league, and it surely makes sense for Glasner to offer him a chance to impress when he returns to the club in January.".
23 Oct 2026 16:53:41
Interesting post Cyclist. However, I strongly advise against posting facts and stats on here mate, it only causes alarm and despondency amongst some.😂😇.
21 Oct 2026 10:24:18
Massive mistake letting Bakwa and Hutchinson go out on loan imo it makes us one dimensional with only CHO left in the squad as a winger
Munoz not cutting it imo and Williams being played out of position every game with Aina and Netz not getting a look in.
21 Oct 2026 11:34:42
Agree with all that Munmad. It would be nice to have attacking options but OG is inflexible imo. We looked threatening with CHO on chasing it against Arsenal. Plus Hutch and Bakwa are doing very well for their loan clubs.
Lack of joined up thinking when replacing VP.
21 Oct 2026 14:02:29
I pose the question once again mate. If the answer is Kalimuendo, what's the question?
