Why does everybody have to be in Cooper In or Cooper Out? A happy clapper or an impatient idiot?
How about the vast majority are realistic normal fans? They support the team, they support the manager, they support Nottingham Forest and therefore they give their backing to all.
They are appreciative to Cooper and his achievements, they desperately want him to turn it around. But if he doesn’t and it increasingly looks like he won’t, then if we change manager they will understand.
That is the overwhelming majority of opinion, just not it seems of a tiny minority who post crap on social media.
Yep, totally Salv. And since when did fans get to choose who is and who isnt the manager?

Exactly. If ex pros like Hodge are saying its time, then thats fine by me
And Birtles today saying it's crazy to boot Cooper and then complain that the team aren't doing the basics. That's down to Cooper!

Bournemouth play open football like Spurs and I thought we were really unlucky to go in 1 down last Friday.
If we can find some composure in or around their box (which we massively lacked last week & v Wolves) we have a chance.
Composure in our own box is likely to be problem so someone needs to get some bloody shots on target.

If any so called Forest fan is not going to get behind our new manager on Saturday then please give your ticket to a real Forest fan who will.

My thoughts entirely. Half of this fan base did not want Cooper when he was appointed, most wanted wilder or howe.
Get behind Nuno and the team. This is Nottingham Forest.

Nuno knows MGW is most effective centrally so that’s what I am most excited about.

I think it is important this Saturday to create an atmosphere that is hostile to Bournemouth and not ourselves, as fans that is in our control and something we can deliver. Let's show this football world that we're a special club and one man does not define us.
Let's make Nuno feel welcome and let him do his job in the same environment we created for Steve and see where it takes us.
If we create an hostile environment that's unhelpful to our club then fans need to take some responsibility for what may happen come may time.
This city ground on Saturday needs to be as loud as it's ever been during our time in the prem.

Ridiculous to suggest they won’t get behind him.
However I do believe support for Cooper has been shielding the players from criticism. Should we lose on Saturday I expect the crowd to turn on them quite quickly. Nuno will be exempt from blame at least for a good few matches but if any players are not putting the effort in for their £80k/wk I suspect we will hear “Youre not fit to wear the shirt”.

100% this. Also, I suspect we will hear Coopers name being sung a lot also

Don’t think the crowd will do that Tricky, or at least I hope not.
To be honest my post above may have looked negative for which I apologise. I am genuinely really pumped for Saturday now, had Cooper still been in charge I think I would have been secretly dreading it.
Hopefully we can go for it and play without fear, clean slate for some of the players, a proper chance to turn a corner for the better.

I hope not, what good will that do, it will only divide the fans which is madness.
Steve had his send off at Wolves and at home to Tottenham and we should leave it there.

Right must be time to guess the nuno's line after only being through the door.
I am going with a 3-4-1-2 formation.
Vlachodimos
Worrall Niakhaté Murillo
Domínguez Mangala Sangaré Danilo
Gibbs-White
Hudson-Odoi Elanga
