It is not okay to abuse any players or manager not matter what result when people like this I wander whats point you even going to games I guessing at the moment thats how players feel like.

I really don't get this argument, his job is our manager and chief coach, he's not here to appease or entertain the supporters, isn't that what Rammie and Ewie are for?
Also, I bet the 'bounce' to him is cringeworthy and embarrassing, and it is to be honest, Lampard got away with it based on his character and youthful naivety perhaps? Cocu is clearly a different character with different managerial ideals which directly affects how he approaches the role. His focus at the minute will be on performances and getting results, i'd rather him prioritise that at the minute, rather than trying to entertain fans...

No amount of money gives anyone the right to abuse people, unless of course it's a transaction related to a seedy basement.
The lack of separation between criticism and abuse in football fans is really quite jarring to be honest.

Where's the snow when you need it?

My foster lad plays for Derbyshire in Disability Cricket (mixture of physical and learning difficulties) and yesterday they beat Yorkshire in the national final. The teams ages range from 18 to 72.
Chasing 194 in 35 overs they were 20 for 4 but recovered to win by 4 wickets with 2 overs to spare. To add to the accomplishment the lad who was verbally abused on camera at Nottm train station last year by a Forest idiot scored 43 not out off around 36 balls to win us the game. 
Sometimes sport comes good in the end. 
 

Couldn’t disagree more. Away from home a draw is always a decent result. At home you have a point, you need the wins. That doesn’t mean you go out aiming for a draw, of course you go out to win every game.

Couple of observations....don't think you can play both Hudders and Bielik in the same midfied...and Waggers and Marriott need to play as a 2 up top, don't think Waggers is a winger...…..

Can you post some dog 💩 through the hole you make from me as well please (don’t think it has a letter box)

Spot on, shows a lot of strength of character to stick with his process, pick the team his way and not change his ideals to placate fans.

I’m genuinely quite surprised by the overreaction from our fans both on social media and on here. Cocu made it perfectly clear he was going to change the side, so I’m a bit confused by the reaction of some
Forest made just as many changes, but have a far bigger squad of season pros and had more individual quality on the pitch, which showed
If Cocu’s policy is to play second string in cup competitions, whether we draw Nottingham Forest or Newport, should he neglect his policy because we’ve been matched up against our rivals? Or should we trust the man we so overwhelmingly approved of appointing?
 

His concept/outlook is a lot bigger than petty rivalry.

If he gets us into the Premier league either this year or next  you (and many others) will miraculously forget this comment and going mental with adulation like the rest of us.
I'm happy for Forest to sing about a win in a crappy cup over our second string if we're playing at Anfield as they trot off to Preston.
We either trust our manager (or are prepared to give him a fighting chance) or we don't.
This whining has started way earlier than even i thought possible - and I'm old and I've heard a lot of whining over the years.
You're avatar would suggest you were around in 95 - were you calling for calm heads when we lost 5 -1 at Tranmere and were staring down the gun of relegation before we went on an insane run?
Probably.
But my guess is you remember it differently and that was somehow *different*.
 

People saying we haven’t got strength in depth. Cocu doing what he did with the squad tonight will ensure we eventually have strength in depth from within the club and not having to buy players. It may be this time next year that this comes to fruition but he has to start somewhere. 
I love the fact we are seeing Buchanan, Knight, Lowe, Sibley, Bird, Whittaker all on a regular basis. It’s better than seeing Jerome, Anya and Butterfield. 

I expected 3 or 4 of the Baggies team to start. Cocu will have his strategy and quite rightly for me the League is the priority. Shame for the travelling Rams fans but not the end of the world. Need to put a decent performance in at Brentford on Saturday now.....

I reckon only 2 or 3 from the Baggies X1 will start against Florist. Saturday at Brentford is far more important......

Very true but try telling that to someone who just isn't interested in cricket, they simply don't get it 👍

Amazing day. Stokes was unreal. The daft review. The plumb lbw...not given. The run out that wasn't. The boundaries. On its day, test cricket can reach heights of drama no other version, in fact no other sport, can match. Today was such a day.

Well that was easy...
