That is what I was thinking. Was he the PR and pressman? If so I am sure there are much better out there. Good luck to him anyway. Nothing personal but the PR and communication hasn't been the best.

Errr come on, you seriously think the poor communication is down to the press and PR guy? He puts out the information he is allowed to release which comes from the top. He doesnt make decisions, he doesnt say “Oi Ionannis, for heavens sake dont do an interview.”

Nobody said anything about interviews with Vrentzos SM, you are being a bit extreme but the PR and communication has been bad even without interviews with the COE etc.

Do you really believe that?

And - if so - fair enough.

But what about the overall feeling within the workforce - his is not the only departure.

DT sorry I mean TPL. You keep telling us that. Why don't you enlighten us all and give us a list?

How many sources do you choose not to believe?

Stop playing devils advocate.

Stop burying your head in the sand.

Ex-Forest manager Steve Cotterill has been in intensive care due to Coronavirus.

Hope he makes a full and swift recovery.

Yep, wish him all the best. It's an unpopular opinion but I give him huge credit for the way he kept us up after Doughty washed his hands of us. His gamble to lose Wes Morgan, to enable us to pay the bills and bring in Geddy & Elokobi on loan turned our season around.

Yes agree with that. Not sure Cotts is ever a manager to fire you promotion playing wonderful football but in a relegation battle with tight funds he is the man you want. That was a hard decision to sell Morgan but at the time if anyone had suggested he would be lifting the PL trophy a few years later I think I would have suggested seeking psychiatric help. Certainly those loans kept us up that year.

All the best to him , sounds like he is out of immediate danger now.

Another unpopular opinion of mine: Dougie Freedman was one of the best manager's we've had in the last 20 years. The way he delivered a respectable season, on his own, child minding Fawaz, with a umbongo and without Britt was a supreme effort.

Agree to both. also felt that O'Driscoll and Cotterill brought the best out of each other as a pairing or more cancelled each other's weaknesses out. It's a shame that partnership wasn't persuaded to continue.

With Dougie, he did a great job in limited circumstances, would've been good to see what he could do in a more positive environment. Although his work post Forest doesn't necessarily imply he'd have done loads.
