Evangelos Marinakis And Co

[Strawberry Avenger]

I think EM will hold "fire" until after transfer window now, to see how it pans out once squad is decided. With a fair wind he will hopefully be sat back watching the improvement and results.

The wind will be hurricane force if we lose today.

Having said that EM is mellowing. Olympiakos were knocked out of the Champions League last week and the coach has not been sacked. He also gave Sabri another crack at the start of last season.

A pity that hurricane doesn't hit Mari with full force.  Because it's his hubris (his own) that has him still waiting for the Premiership riches.  

He appointed the new CEO far too late this Summer.  Which has had an impact on bringing players in compounded by a slow market.  It's only taken Marinakis 4 years to realise that what works 'over there' doesn't work 'over here.'

Marinakis doesn't have patience.  Certainly not with managers.  He ultimately owns last season.  He's the owner.  He kept Sabri when it was clear to the fans he'd long since lost the plot.  His strategic blunder was appointing Hughton too late and without his own squad.  And Hughton still doesn't have his own squad a year later.  There's no point employing an 'excellent candidate' (Randall's own words) and treating him shabbily with signings.  He may as well have another temper tantrum and fire Hughton (because it's likely Forest are going to lose 4 in a row.)  So we can 'start again.'  But his track record shows when he gets rid of managers at Forest?  Forest have progressively finished lower and lower.

Until Mari and some fans wrap their head around this.  Forest will stay in this division.

As for my posts not being relevant.  (I've deleted plenty of my own.  If people don't like them.  Ignore them.  Or put me on ignore.  There are plenty of irrelevant posts by plenty of posters on plenty of threads.).  My comments.  They're entirely aimed at the owner.  Yes, it's his train set.  But he's merely the custodian.  

His on the field success (or lack of it) is because he's renowned for his lack of patience.  I guess it's him reaping the 'whirlwind' now.

SA.
