Next Manager The Runners & Riders

Similar cautious style to Sabri too.

Welcome Chris.

I agree
For those critical of lamouchi's style and by definition Hughton, We've got to remember that that style was what  got us into the top four for prolonged parts of the season. Hughton I feel will build on it and will be able to use this strong squad to get us moving in the right.

I'm not getting carried away but I feel we have a manager with the pragmatism and fortitude to push on. We shall see.

So we have gone from a foreign manger who is defensive in style to a British manager who is defensive in style. Oh well at least we are consistent in our approach.
Not that impressed or excited by this but never mind COYR and go smash this league Hughton.

By the way, I cannot remember but is the 20 minutes between lamouchi departing and Hughtons announcement quicker than the Mon departure and lamouchi appointment.

They don't like caretaker managers do they?

Hopefully the transition will go smoother as a result of the apparent similarities and that this season isn't completely lost yet.

Why do Forest always do things on the cheap especially under the last few ownerships? When was the last time we went and poached a manager who was in work, we always revert to the un-employed register. There is NO football ethos to follow in this club once we get past youth level, we just lurch from side to side. CH will be gone by the end of the season if we have not achieved promotion and the whole process starts again. If we had stood back and thought is all through we could have identified a bright up and coming coaching team, dampened down immediate promotion prospects and started a process on solid foundations for a change!

19 minutes after MON was sacked. 20 mins after Lamouchi. Just enough time for a quick cuppa between OUT announcement and IN announcement  :D

Chris Hughton has a good record of getting teams promoted but is obvious the ownership and fan base are not willing to wait and build a side. If he doesn't get us promoted he is likely to get sacked at the end of the season. However, his record in the prem league is not that impressive and if he did manage to get us promoted I do not think he would be given much leeway and replaced. He will do well to be manager longer than Sabri.

I have cleaned this thread up so can we now only use it the next time we are looking for a new manager. Cheers.

Now it looks like he's getting the boot from Chelsea I wouldn't be surprised if Marinakis considered Lampard for Forest.

Absolutely no way!

1/ We have a perfectly good manager,
2/ He's not that good imo,
3/ We dont want to have to rename the club to be FL's Forest.
