Hmm. An interesting sliver of the mindset. But I guess they're used to being winners in Greece. So they're confident.
But? That mindset tinted the rose coloured glasses of recruitment and what they expected of Aitor last year. 'Just' because Forest threw 'a few quid' at it last year didn't mean they were going to get promoted or win the Championship. (Something Colback even suggested in a recent NEP, ie. That it doesn't guarantee anything when other clubs have been doing 'that' for longer.)
And I think that mindset is a good thing, ultimately. They have belief based upon their success in Greece.
However, as they found out last year (and no doubt, as MoN has reminded them a few times...and has said so in the NEP as well!) the Championship and Greek football are different.
I have no doubt if they were in the Championship they'd be made to be competitive real quick and they'd go through managers until that was so. But they would be up against it to win it on their 1st attempt. It would be a culture shock for them.
They'd probably have to get rid of most of their entire playing squad for starters.
SA.
