I’d hedge a bet on our team from last season, or even your lower league shower beating this current Forest outfit. Would’ve been good if someone, literally anyone, had warned you the approach to recruitment was poor. NG2Ram, I know nothing and Crewton 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think they may have asked why he wasn't ever playing for another team at the arse end if he was worth that much. Magicman and REDCAR 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Red_Dawn Posted October 3, 2022 Share Posted October 3, 2022 9 minutes ago, Bris Vegas said: The warning signs were there during the summer. Scattergun approach on mercenaries. It undermines all the decent work Cooper had done and is harsh on the actual players who got you promoted. Your signings now have basically wrecked the feel-good factor of last year and the squad harmony you had is shot. Yeah some may not be PL standard, but imagine being a Forest player who got promoted only to be cast aside immediately for mercenaries like Jesse Lingard who only signed on a one-year deal worth millions. I’m not getting carried away saying your will break low points records. But during our 11 point season, our team was shot when Jewel came in and replaced the likes of Howard and Oakley, our better players from the promotion season, with mercenaries. I see a similar situation at Forest. They had to though Bris. No team had ever got promoted to the PL as ill-prepared as we were, bar maybe Blackpool all those years ago. They needed to make signings and lots of them. Some will be hits some will fail. I honestly think it’s too early to judge really as we’ve not had enough time to judge them yet. I’d imagine someone like Sean Dyche will be waiting in the wings though 2BH.

Rev Posted October 3, 2022 Share Posted October 3, 2022 I feel sorry for Cooper. He's quite obviously a good manager, but has been overtaken by events. It would have been better for his career, and for Forest, to miss out on promotion last season and probably go up automatically this season, with a far smaller investment needed. Instead, they've chucked the kitchen sink at it, squandering the PL riches for seasons to come, and will end up rebuilding in the Championship with a massive squad and hangover, and little cash to rectify it. Then I see they bring on Yates as a second half saviour, and PMSL. Crewton, ariotofmyown, Red_Dawn and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t think anyone can say that all those players who have come in were wanted by Cooper, no manager in the world would want that much change. My presumption has been from the start that they are giving Cooper enough time to make the decision for them and not get a backlash from fans/media, then they will bring their own man in who can take a fresh look at the squad. Whether it’ll work, or whether that’s right, who knows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LittleEatonRam Posted October 3, 2022 Share Posted October 3, 2022 (edited) And to think there were pundits and fans aplenty at the beginning of the season who actually thought this would work and applauded Forest for 'going for it'.

Not sure a PL outfit like Wolves would want him at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
