    Wouldn't change this football club for the world, ruined so many Forest fans seasons today without even having to win

    nottingram got a reaction from Premier ram in Tom Lawrence   
    But if he could have his good games more consistently he would not be playing for us and never would have
    At times in his time here, he has been the only ‘creative’ source in the team. Good squads need competition in the wide areas because they are all inconsistent especially at the level that we are at. We haven’t had that since 2015, back then it wasn’t a problem if Ward or Russell had an off day because Ibe or whoever else there was then could come on.
    The criticism of him drives me mad at times as it feels like he is held to a higher standard than others.

    He is one of those players where you feel like he has everything to be an amazing footballer, he just needs to land in the right setup to really show it
    So far his career has been managed awfully. So much talent though, would love to keep him and get him some stability

    Ruined their whole season without even having to beat Sheffield Wednesday, bless them
    At least they’ve consoled themselves by laughing at the over celebrations

    nottingram got a reaction from MickD in Curtis Davies - signed 1-year deal   
    We have no centre backs next season, I read an interview with him where he said he wanted to carry on playing
    May as well keep him around (on reduced terms as I’m sure he’d understand) - we’d only have to replace him if we didn’t

    Very glad he didn’t end up responsible for us losing today
    Probably not up to it at this level anymore but he has never ever put in less than maximum effort which is all I care about. Would’ve been a huge shame if we’d gone down today and he’d have been blamed for it, even though we’d have been relegated over the course of a season, not just today

    nottingram got a reaction from Derby4Me in Show of support at Pride Park - Saturday 10am   
    The players were under a hell of a lot of pressure today and indeed for the last few weeks and the end of the game there must have been a nice release.
    Plenty have not been good enough this season and they’ll know that but they showed a lot of balls today with 100% effort which is all we can ask.
    Pretty clear that for the most part this sort of thing will boost the relationship between the players and the fans, which is sorely needed. Really nice for the fans that went today for the players to go out and spend a few moments with them.
    Seeing them stony faced at the end of the game would’ve been bizarre and certainly would have dampened how I feel.

    To be fair to Rooney, we’re one place higher than we were when he took over.

    nottingram got a reaction from Grimbeard in Derby Managers In Focus (March 2021): From Nigel to Wayne   
    It all needs context. If I was ranking the job each manager did Clement would be  comfortably bottom of the pile, maybe aside from Pearson who wasn’t given time, rightly or wrongly. That goes beyond win percentages.
    Likewise Clough would be higher because the majority of his tenure was necessary pain. 
    The only manager(s) on that list who did a good to great job were Mac 1 and Mac 2, maybe Clough and maybe Wassall, when putting everything in to context, in my opinion.
    Shows what a farce it was that Mac was sacked not once, but twice.

    Have to say I do feel more sympathy for Rooney based on Percy’s most recent article.
    It had probably tipped me from wanting him gone either way to fairly ambivalent. It would be a difficult job for an experienced manager let alone a rookie in their first job, though I am still sceptical that he may have engineered the situation slightly to get the job
