Quite an odd opinion as his winning percentage has been very high everywhere except with us. Good win percentage with Brentford, good win percentage with Rangers but aside from the odd cup game, he was playing against significantly inferior opponents as Rangers worked their way back up the leagues. Pretty bang average for Forest and for us. His record at Rangers is mostly in the Scottish championship with 20 times the budget of most clubs. Tried to out-play Rodgers Celtic team and took a tonking and was never the same after. |

What about Lewis Ferguson he’s Always caught my eye and looks like there is player in him Rscot Yeah he looks like he’ll become a good player, still a bit unsure as to his best role in the midfield. There’s another young Scot playing alongside him at Aberdeen in midfield, Ross McCrorie looks good too. McCrorie is on loan to Aberdeen from Rangers, he’s not gonna get playing time at Rangers at the moment. Ferguson will cost you a few million, and if you go in for him you may well be bidding with Rangers (Glasgow) |

Pretty bang average for Forest and for us. 40 % is bang average? Same as Warnock's career winning percentage? His lack of a plan B has been his problem wherever he has coached. Just have a read at the various message boards.. |

His Rangers record is mostly in 2nd tier which is league 1/2 standard in some cases. Not liked by Gers fans from what I know from people up there |

The only manager who has the bollox to sort out our club from top to bottom is Pearson
It needs a complete shake up but Les hasn't got the bollox to appoint him
We would be top 10 next year then top 6 the year after
Go get this nutter

I think McKinnes and Howe. But Pearson is my other choice. Are they realistic though?

His back room staff are meant to be good too. He’s had to sell his best players and replace on limited budget. |

I want us to get input from abroad this time. Kjetil Knudsen is a Norwegian coach who has coached Bodø Glimt, league winners in Norway, the last few seasons. He is good enough for a european team of our size now. He will give us new inputs, just like the Brentford manager Frank.

I agree, I think generally coaches and managers from Europe seem to be better than their U.K. counterparts at this moment in time |

Think we could do with a tough Scot at the moment. But preference would be manager abroad....but clueless who. |

He is also very good at working with young players. |

I wouldn’t say there’s any really outstanding youngish Scottish managers around at this moment. Alex Dyer, who is English seems to be doing a decent job at Kilmarnock. Think this will be his first full season managing though, so the QPR job is probably too early for him. Steven Robinson at Motherwell, he’s Northern Irish, has done a decent job there over the last few seasons. He has been fortunate though, in that inherited a good crop of youngsters at Motherwell when he took over. Most of them have been sold now though. The last one was David Turnbull, sold to Celtic for around £3 million

Questions I'd like to hear in the true Rs lickin' style of our interviewer - Mark, we can all see how dangerous our set pieces have become since you revealed the work being done but wouldn't it be better to wait until Ilias Chair gets back with the teas to practice the routines? Now Mark, we know how solid our defence has become and it's down to those naughty opponents that we concede soft goals but is there any truth in the rumour that Test and Trace had contacted Todd Kane causing him to self-isolate yesterday? Mark, Lyndon Dykes is proving to be a fantastic signing but have you introduced him to the rest of the team yet? Mark, Niko Hamalainen is a wonderful young footballer, good looking, lovely legs and Scandinavian too! - sorry, getting carried away there - but isn't it about time you confiscated his copy of The Ryan Manning guide to full-back positioning before we sell him to West Brom? Now Mark, you've told us often enough how difficult it is for fit young men to do three hours of hard work a week but when you rotate subs without altering our losing position is it because A) you were right in the first place so it doesn't need changing or B) you were right in the first place and it doesn't need changing? Well, thanks for that Mark. Can I have your comments for the next match or shall I just insert the word 'Millwall' into any of your previous interviews? Have a nice weekend.... By the way, when does your contract run out?

I cannot watch the interviews even in a victory (on rare occasion that happens).
“How good was....”.....”Very good.....”
“How disappointing was it to concede......” “Very disappointing....”
“How much confidence will that win give the team....” “it will give them a lot of confidence”

Did he really have the gall to say the players were tired?
Even though we had one more day's rest than Hudders?
And like it's not the same for every team?
And like these 'elite athletes' can't play twice a week, even though they'll all tell you they'd rather play than train?

The man needs to go as we are in real danger the longer he stays. Surely someone at the club can see keeping him could turn out to be a very bad call.

A loss at Millwall and I definetly think it`s au revoir for him. At least I hope so. Warburton and Sir Les need to go now.

I see the Cowley brothers, Paul Cook and David Wagner have been suggested as potential candidates on various websites today.

Hughes, Redknapp, Ramsey, JFH, Holloway, McClaren, Warburton - list of our latest managers. I don't think we would be in any worse position if we had kept Hughes or Redknapp. In fact only Steve was in a situation where there were no way back. All others were sacked because of unrealistic expectitions. We have had too much turbulence without any real cause and that's why I'm against changing managers at this phase. Unrealistic expectations? Hughes never won a league before being sacked at the end of November. Not sure hoping to win a game before then is unrealistic. Did the change had any real effect? No. |

No. Very hard to stay up with 3 or 4 points in December. Hughes and Rigg ruined the club which has destroyed every manager since as all have been paying for the recruitment from the summer of 2012. |

Can't believe the useless clown used the excuse of to many games in a short period. We had an extra day off than Huddersfield and the games of late have been local to us,where as they and have had some long trips but still managed to better us in every department except Dieng.Just shows our conditioning, mentality and preparations are woeful,and whose to blame for that.... Warburton and his useless backroom staff. Hopefully they will be gone by end of the week after our maulings from Millwall and Reading.
