I detect either a heavy dose of sarcasm... Or insanity!

What I will say is that this season has been reassuringly familiar in terms of my experience of Forest matches. Reminds me of all those seasons in the championship and league one... Just this time we are doing on a far bigger stage.

Incredibly bad tonight. Needs to go before he does too much damage…

Worth saying that this won't be doing Edu's reputation any good either. After all he was brought in to take the Marinakis' brand to the next level and so far all he's helped do is take us backwards. If Ange is still here for Newcastle then pressure will be intense. It is a must win you feel.

It's not all bad. This was only our second home defeat in Europe in 30 years. 

:Funny:

That was awful to watch. Granted the ref cheated us but we was absolutely diabolical.

Sacked in the morning chants won't help, Ange.

I dont like to see managers sacked so early on but he isn't helping himself at the moment.

He has to go, the sooner the better, I cannot understand why the big man thought that he would be the man to move us forward

Didn't see the game live and watched it after a busy day golfing......We do not have an identity. We are not a team who defends well and score great goals with lightning counter attacks. We are not a team who play tippy tappy football probing at defenses and delivering killer defense splitting balls ( Sangare gave it a good try though) we don't defend well against set pieces and don't seem to press that high up the pitch forcing mistakes from defenders. Just what do we do well? I am so frustrated with this team. We have signed expensive players who come on at the death of a game with no time to make an impact. EM must be doing his nut. We are not going to win the Europa league and even at this early stage off the season we may not survive relegation. I have been more than supportive of Ange but I cannot see any progression in this team. We have gone backwards. EM may well get rid but who then do we get?

Thoughts.
There was no lack of effort from the players out there. Ndoye’s best game?
We need to score 3 times to draw a game, that’s unacceptable.
We were outsmarted by a well drilled team but who wouldn’t stand a prayer in the Premier League.
There seems to be a basic communication problem or lack of understanding of roles defending.
If anyone says we are just being unlucky they aren’t watching what Im watching.
The fans started poor and ended up making ourselves a laughing stock, worst part of the evening.

There is a strange kind of apathy about the atmosphere at home games and I can’t understand it. Im not sure its just about the manager. There are people I have sat next to for over 20 years mostly in a kind of gloomy acceptance when we aren’t very good who are more angry than Ive ever seen them. Its really odd considering what this season would/should be about.

Cool heads need to prevail and the manager and team need to be supported in this "change" period.

He is not going to be sacked before he has even had 10 games in charge, all that these so called fans are doing are undermining the players and manager and making it even more difficult.

And then what if he is sacked, the next manager gets 6 games before we all start calling for them to be sacked as well ?

The performances of many players is sub par. Morato is not a good defender, said that from the start. Its no surprise when he has started under Nuno and Ange we have lost and ship goals. And its why Nuno only used him as back up. He is not a starter.

Our defence is a shambles as Murillo and Aina are injured and Williams is no longer on the left side. If you cannot see that your blind.

Nuno screwed us by not putting Hutch into the EL squad.

The midfield looks good with Luiz in there and crap without.

So many things are wrong with the players themselves underperforming.

Agree with some of that but it begs the question about summer recruitment when we already knew our back ups were sub standard that we haven’t strengthened the defence. Jair looks to be 5th or 6th choice. Savona is one of the most bizarre picks here in a while.
Yes the injuries may explain some of it but as you say others are underperforming too.
