A percentage do out of fear of potentially getting someone worse. Although if we continue at this rate I'm not sure it could get much worse 2BH. I've pretty much lost any semblance of patience that I might have had left. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lot will depend on how much of the debt Fawaz decides to write off or not if he does sell OR if he decides to pull the plug if he cant sell. I think Forest are still at the stage where good management can turn them around, but it could soon turn into a Bolton situation, i have no idea which way it will go. For how much I joke about Forest i dont want to see them in the same boat as Bolton, I wouldnt trust Fawaz when Forest are out of embargo...can see him splurging millions again, but given how he treated Peterborough, and his record of keeping payment deadlines, how many clubs will let him buy players on instalments? I wouldnt. The bloke is a joke...his cryptic comment on Twitter last week just proves what a clown he is. Forest need someone to come in and be patient and do what Derby did under clough, get the finances under control then build from there. Wont ever happen under Fawaz.

Problem is, I doubt their fans would be patient enough for it to happen. They've only recently gave up the notion their squad isn't title-winning material. And to provide balance, I'm fairly certain we only endured what we did because it was Nigel Clough. I doubt the fans, en-masse, would have been as patient with someone else.

Uncle George wouldn't have been allowed to do that for nearly 5 years though. Besides, people recognised that The amigos were corrupt and cut him a little slack - but not enough (hence the idiot stories about him that surfaced after he had left).

Look on LTLF or other forest forums back at the start of the season and everyone bar a couple of knuckledraggers recognised we have a poor squad.

No more delusional fans than I see on here Harry1982... "I know a lot of people are expecting mediocrity but our squad is better than last season, ok some are injury prone but the quality in depth allows us to rotate the to hopefully limit injuries. As a bologna in mid to late Jan is could re vitalise the team for that all important last push third of the season. If we can stay in playoff until then I think we have a really good chance" John Player... "We have an incredibly talented bunch of players (much more talented than they tend to show) so yes on paper they could be a top six side. The trouble is there doesn't seem to be a workable system that allows the group we have to form a balanced team where everyone plays to their strengths. For that reason we will once again be lower mid table team and will be for the foreseeable future." tropix... "In all seriousness we obviously should be challenging the top 6 again, especially when Britt is back. We all know this deep down." Alf-Hasawi... "Don't expect owt this year. Have a year off and just accept whatever happens. Most unpredictable season in years." Barry... "One place above the relegation zone?" Errol... "1st" Dangerous Dom... "I've never felt so unexcited in all my life as a Forest supporter..." hannahd... "I think next season will be all about fighting relegation, so at least our season will be kept alive right until the end..." mardello... "Just put £100 on forest to win the championship at 33-1.." (in fairness, he admits to being mad) Red Dawn... (in reply to mardello) "Mate you might aswell have bought some magic beans for 100 quid" After that, it got very depressing. The opinion of forest fans was, by and large, as you suggested, Dawny. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCFCArmy Posted April 13, 2016 Share Posted April 13, 2016 Most Forest fans know they aren't very good, the more delusional one's are most likely on a wind up, we got them when we were near the bottom season after season. Dawny and tiger are intelligent enough and realise their in a mess.. what p***** me off though as I'd love for us both to be challenging at the top of the league like for much of the 2013/14 season, the banter is so much better when both sides are doing well, as oppose to both of us being **** or one of us doing well and the other doing ****. Not many Forest lot around at the moment and you can't really blame them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inglorius Posted April 13, 2016 Share Posted April 13, 2016 I'd rather Forest be challenging for a Top 6 place it gives us respite to laugh at them when they screw it up rather than the current predictable scenario of them laughing at us when we lose a play off final, fail to make it to the playoffs on the last day and whatever cock up will happen this season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
