Just read grabbans reply on the sacking of hughton, great to read he didn't use hughton as an excuse for, let's face it a very poor run for a long time. Doesn't happen often these days. He said morale was ok just wins didn't go our way. (Now before you all start jumping in the blokes gone ok) i'm pointing out grabban being honest, now this is me being honest. As i posted yesterday a lot are expecting big things straight away. Was it just me on here or did huddersfield play like we normally do. Get real and don't put pressure on the new lad, again i'm watching on here with every one on highs through what, talk. Btw that's not me saying were not going forward, just saying don't be ready to rip the lad apart if the first few games don't add up. I watched the new Alice in wonderland on Sunday, (i say new never watch films) and alice says 'time is a thief it steals everything that's good too us, well we certainly found that out. that's not Bowie being a bi#ch just realistic.

I agree that fans shouldn't expect an overnight miracle. What we should be excited about is the long term plan. It all makes sense.
If we are lucky, then results will improve straight away. But we might not be lucky. Stick with the long-term.

Exactly redcyclist, all i'm saying is, let's give them time. Anything before that is a bonus. I remember years ago i used to be addicted to a game called champ manager on the pc, couldn't sleep was that bad 😂, few on here probably know the game. Always took forest to European champions etc. Haha. Anyway when faced with the press you had decisions to make etc. As in what kind of statements. The last one i'd choose was coopers type. Were going to play best football, young coming through etc etc. Because if you lost two games the press and fans were on you. Players wanted out. Etc etc. Now don't get me wrong all fantasy football but did make ya think. Signings, losing money, training grounds, they actually put it pretty much real. Getting on with the owner. Actually did anyone else out there play it?

5 games for me all winnable simples.

So called high expectations of forest fans are a total myth and have been for years, they only exist in the sky commentary box, or at radio Nottingham, anyone that actually buys tickets, and mixes with the real fans knows most forest fans have zero expectations these days, but wouldn’t mind actually being entertained in exchange for their hard earned,

Just wandered red cyclist how many plans we after stick to as all the other plans managers have bought in no one as actually gave the time like u say to build on there plan you included I think the only people we need in now with a plan is the a-team and I think they would struggle as Mr t says you crazy fool lol 5 game plan for me easy games coming up and then let's see if the new man gets the backing off the owner in the winter window it will be a first if it happens so won't start getting excited about anything till end of January.

The last time we had this kind of plan and were doing it, we sacked the manager. That was Warburton.
If we lose the next five, I'd be worried. But I honestly think they have realised this is the best way to strengthen the club. We have a manager who thinks the same way. They don't want to bore us, which helps. If that isn't worth getting just a bit excited about, then it really is a waste of money turning up for games, I reckon.

@Bowie: I know the game from its early incarnations. It was more addictive than smack!
