Marinakis Flies In To Speak To Manager & Players Today...

[Sausage Roll]

Hope he dropped by the Foreign Office and 'persuaded' them to grant Ansarifard's work permit.

[Sniffer Dog (Admin)]

It will be interesting to see if we get any kind of response tonight from Aitor and the players following the owners 'visit'.

[Strawberry Avenger]

If Marinakis was allowed just one question what would it be?

What do Bridcutt, Yacob & Tachtsidis have to do to get a run in the side?

Good question.

Bridcutt or Geddy against Norwich, surely?

Both are more progressive than Watson.

Losing Robinson against Norwich upset the apple cart.  I thought it would.  Which meant losing Os' further upfield.

They need to step up.

Saturday was disappointing.  Back to being over run in midfield, low intensity.  Inconsistent.  Playing for 'only' 15 mins.  Set pieces goals.  Soft fullbacks.  A keeper that can't catch.  

It will be no easy game against Bolton or any side in this league.

Forest need to turn up.

If he plays Watson & Colback again tonight I'm honestly done with Karanka.

I feel the same. it will backfire badly if we lose.

I think a lot of people are thinking the same BadDog, dare I say even Marinakis!

They played well together at Boro but apart from that they have not hit it off together at all.

[BadDog]

Thats what got peoples backs up the most on Saturday the fact we desperately needed legs in the middle and he changed everywhere else, people just couldn't believe it.

[the jock]

I cant see him dropping colback so it will probably be either Watson or guediora again.

guedioras form has dipped since the facial injury. its a pity he would change things up and introduce somebody like Bridcutt into the team.

we need 3 points tonight.

[BadDog]

Colback isn't the issue for me, surely it's time Yacob is in the squad as well?

Watson needs to be out like I have said since pre-season!

in fairness to you...you did.

we have such midfield options its a shame we limit it to 2 holding midfielders every game.

[Greek Empire]

It is rumoured here (Greece) that Marinakis is not happy with 'tactics'.

Also heard a whisper yesterday that Marinakis was not amused when Karanka had a pop at the fans.

Without wishing to sound negative (I am just being honest), I think yesterday's visit by Marinakis doesn't bode well for Karanka.

In my opinion, style of play, results and our league position all need to improve to satisfy our owner.

That is about right.

We've had a stop start beginning to the season. Karanka was rightly given grace due to the number of new players arriving in the close season but saturday was back to square one. In my opinion, Karanka got most things wrong against Norwich and needs to be told he has to up his own game. Marinakis must also be as puzzled as the rest of us to be paying the wages of newly acquired players who are getting no where near the team. Crazy
