Nottingham Forest - Huddersfield Town

[Strawberry Avenger]

Spot on. Seems that there appear to be a number of 'supporters' including a small number of posters here who have no view of bigger picture whatsoever. 

Not for one minute suggesting everything is rosey in the Forest garden, but it could have been a whole lot worse if we hadn't been fortunate enough to secure such a steady pair of hands as Chris Hughton. Assuming he decides the players we go after (and we get some of them), then more improvements will follow.

No fair. I don’t like Hughton because of his style of football and I also think he’s weak tactically.

You can agree or disagree, but that’s nowt to do with not seeing the big picture. There seems to be an attempt to equate criticising Hughton with being impatient. May be true for some, but it doesn’t follow.

I have always been happy to be patient, and have called for more development of our younger players, something Highton seems disinclined to do, which is another criticism I have of him. 

I also don’t think we were in any danger this season. It has been greatly exaggerated to excuse the performance of the current manager. I think that’s part of the bigger picture, and so I think you’re wrong. 

So it’s not impatience. It’s not missing the bigger picture. It’s just a difference of opinion, no?

People should be able to express their opinion without being referred to as ‘supporters’.

Hiding behind the free speech banner, the classic trope.of someone that knows they're saying something controversial. 

We're not even safe now ffs! If Rotherham get 4 points from their games in hand we'll be 6 from safety with 4 to play. Ridiculous notion to suggest we weren't in danger. It's this attitude that's the reason managers repeatedly get sacked and we get stuck in this painful cycle of repetitive failure. 

And for the record both Mighten and Yates have been brought into the side recently as well as Garner (admittedly not our player) I'm not really sure who you want in right now?! 

I'm not saying CH couldn't have done better but at least criticise him for the right things.

What on earth is that supposed to mean?!

It means that when you say people should be able to express their opinion that you're about to say something that most won't agree with. I think you can definitely criticise someone's opinion if they're saying something unhelpful. 

It came across to me that you were saying its my opinion, I'll say what I want regardless of the effects and I don't care what the rest of you think. 

My point is that this attitude is what's got us here to this point, if fans or groups of fans repeatedly turn on every manager we'll never get anywhere and this has been proven repeatedly with fact not opinion. Teams that get promoted tend to have had the same manager for a few years, that's fact. Not to say you can't go up in your first year it's just less likely, it's pretty difficult to go up already without parachute payments.

I'm certain you have made your mind up on CH and regardless of what anyone says or what happens next season you won't back down. However there are others reading that will not have and hopefully the more people that can be persuaded to have patience the more likely we'll be successful next season.

When crowds return we want positivity in the stands, not booing and moaning, I've never worked out how that will help the team.

:cool:

An Amen for Wassy.
