Thoughts On The Next Nottingham Forest Manager

[Salvatore Matrecano]

Forza’s take on it all, its hard to disagree

“The mood may have lifted slightly with the news that Chris Hughton had been relieved of his duties but we are excruciatingly back at the point of placing our hopes on the shoulders of yet another football manager. One who will appear into view on a conveyor belt like some ghastly version of a Yo Sushi restaurant and minutes later they’ll be battling against a Category 5 hurricane.

The point is probably rather obvious now but we don’t keep appointing bad managers. Nor do we only appoint good ones – Hughton showed no signs of being that in his year with us. But a poke at the crumbling castle walls around the City Ground gives a glimpse of a catacomb of failures we cannot even begin to lump on a football managers shoulders. Forest has become a place football managers go to die. We wrap the noose around their neck on Day One and then pray they can somehow lead Nottingham Forest on a merry dance to the league above. It is absolutely f*****g stupid.

Lessons need to be learned and quickly. Otherwise the crumbs of patience that remain will be blown away in the storm.”
