Wouldn't have taken much though Sniff for them to just write one sentence thanking him for his service. The optics dont look good from our point of view.
Totally agree, it wouldn't have taken much to have thanked him for his service to the club and to wish him all the best.
100% - whether he was thanked in private or not, how did that announcement make us look? Not great.
It's small things like this that would be so easy to get right.
Depends how much you want to read into mate I suppose. Personally it doessn't bother me at all as he would have been thanked personally when his package was agreed.

for me. A lot of nitpicking going on in my view.

Statement from Sabri below. Doesn't sound like he has an axe to grind or any kind of problem with our owner or his staff.
''It was my dream to work in English football as a Manager and the opportunity to do that at a great club in Nottingham Forest was an honour. The city welcomed me from day one and I will never forget the magic moments we all shared together at the City Ground and across the country.
“Thank you to the players, staff and board for everything they did in support of me and the project. Our dream was to take Nottingham Forest back to the Premier League, where this historic club deserves to be, and to make Forest great again. From the first day to the last, we gave our lives to this project, and together we came so close to achieving our dream.
“To the fans, it was an honour to work for your great club. We lived a season that I will never forget. You sung my name and you made me feel a part of your club. I hope that your dreams will come true and that the club will reach the top. I hope I will have the opportunity to see you again in the City Ground one day.
“I am looking forward to my next challenge, and I wish Nottingham Forest and the new coach every success for the future."

Glad it all appears to have ended amicably. Good luck to Sabri and I hope he pops back to the CG in the future. I am sure he'd get a great reception if he ever came back in charge of another club.

Nice comments from our former gaffer.
Good luck for the future and may you become a success. Thank you for letting us dream (for a while at least!)

some awesome memories from last season, that away win against Fulham and that home win v Leeds and many amazing results in between, it must be an amazing day out when your name is ringing around the stadiums, if it is possible for Sabri's positives to live on as a legacy it is with Chris Hughton, he's like an English speaking lookalike, I hope they chat on the phone late into the night
