Would not be surprised if AK gets the chop. Who's a good mate of Evan Mariakos??- old Fawaz. Clearly they get on.
On balance the Portugal lads have been a failure - can't see 13m for JC is value so far.
But is AK to blame or his scouting?, LG has done well til recently and this was an AK choice.
My fear is we may be on another merry go round but with a different master of the same view as Fawaz- time will tell.

i think grabban had an argument with kranks after the Ipswich game for bringing him off when he was on a hat trick, grabs not looked the same since.
2.) 30 Dec 2018 15:15:27
You could be right arran. Just watched the Netflix series on Sunderland last year. Grabban was on loan from Bournemouth and scoring most of their goals. When Coleman took him off after 70 minutes a couple of times, he asked for his loan to be terminated. Then went to Villa and started scoring for fun again.
Totally selfish, but hell of a finisher.

Goalscorers have to be selfish but he prob had a point to thinking it was prob his best chance to get 1 an he was playing well an felt good so didn’t wanna come off an prob thought hey we should go 2 up front an really kill the game off an win 3 or 4-0

Excellent result today. One good chance & we took it. AK dropped the worst weak links from midweek, straight out of the 18. Yacob MOM imo, so cool; he took a lot of heat of CB's.
No game time for Watson for a while.
Benny's playing streak comes to an end but the correct decision given the result.
Performance A+

Benny will be off in Jan,!
CARLO

Why? He is hardly going to save Raffa and has more chance of passing him on the way up!
24 Feb 2018 19:43:04
Wait for a goal & then 5 come along. Chuffed to bits, especially against cheeky chappie Holloway.(9 over two games. whoops ha ha)

Daryl Murphy not too bad. Clearly given his age he has the experience to pass down. His fitness can't be an issue, if he's passed medical. So MW looking not to spend too much (which DM's age dictates) but to find a striker with a slightly different style to BA. A box presence to draw defenders and make gaps. Youth is the future but BB still needs a bit more time. DM will permit this, so MW knows what he's doing imo. As an aside, DM is a humble chap. bumped into him at Bolton (a) season before last.

Great signing, he will be good for this season. The 3 year contract is questionable but his agent will have dictated that.

The lads pretty much gave Fulham the result and the scoreline wasn't fair but a reflection of 4 errors clinically punished.
1. An OG. 2. Shambles of three 3. Brice not covering his near post 4. A pullback because the man has gone through.
Plus Grabbans top of the TE effort and BJ so nearly side footed shot and the game was lost collectively.
As most other teams will also drop points to Fulham, if NFFC are going to have a bad day with errors . best they all come at once against FFC. Hope my evening at QPR will be a happyone.
1.) 26 Oct 2021 00:07:25
Qpr should be a 3 pointer against the breadman cooper as more brains easy 3 points.
2.) 26 Oct 2021 08:12:47
NO EASY 3 POINTS AROUND Bristol and Blackpool were not easy points, but definitely hope we bounce back with a clean sheet.

Don’t know why but i think skegs is being a little mischievous 😊.
4.) 26 Oct 2021 13:09:35
Me stevie never 😆.
5.) 26 Oct 2021 14:26:53
Skegs, are you fishing, what you, never. Keep them lines tight mate.
25 Oct 2021 21:35:31
Well given SC delivered 16/ 18 points, to drop 3 vs a Prem financed team who most others will lose to isn't so terrible.
Just that all the team were cupable for the errors/ performance which most Prem sides would punish.
So a result not to be dwelled on but fforgotte.
12 Sep 2021 21:16:26
There's clearly issues behind the scenes since a long while but it's just rinse, rinse and re-spin in the player department.
Today we looked disjointed and playing the aerial game against CC was never a winner given their height. With CH's record not to change him leaves little to fear - clearly the players have lost all conviction.
Strikers are as good as their service and here we have ZERO.
12 Sep 2021 21:01:59
So new players same result. CH now has a bigger squad and nothing changes!
He picks two strikers so one would think finally that's a positive formation change BUT OH NO. he simply puts Grabban in midfield essentially as Jack Colback. Same dross but with round pegs in square holes. When subs were required and we're chasing the game. let's swap like for like. Result nothing different.
19 Aug 2021 14:17:28
CH has to go. 2 Home games and nil points, one even against 10 men.
What does he do. like for like swaps and nothing changes.
He gave Carvahlo a longer run out than vs B'mouth (~10mins) but sticks with 2 DM and swaps out AM. With JC on a card and giving verbal, this still didn't persuade him to go one DM.
Playing the flanks with JG asked to get up, he got caught out. off. Why not play through the middle? because we can't. Since Watto or Silva zilch here!
Home advantage X2, 10men and taking the lead (Coventry) and not even a point. How much extra help does he need!
Talking Coventry, 1 up and on the hour he goes full defensive. u simply can't make it up.
No LB with Yuri doing vids to show he's staying fit ready for a club. What's this about? Meanwhile HA on a decent wage doing . ll
Promoted teams don't lose many and we've gone 3 strikes already.
Get rid asap and put Gary in temp charge of the lads he knows best.

Absolutely spot on. Benny gives 100% but has flatlined in progression for a while. Too small as a LB, too few goals as a CM. 5M is a deal well done.
31 Dec 2018 11:37:19
Kazami for me the worst
19 Aug 2018 00:19:08
The first player i recall coming back from a lengthy injury who is better than before.
10 Jun 2018 20:58:11
Imo Osborn at the right price. Sell. Puts in the graft but when midfield simply not enough goals or physical presence.Thats why Watson & co came in.As LB just too small as Cardiff showed.
Versatile, but since his Ipswich debut his progression has stalled.
06 Mar 2018 10:48:55
Palace messed up, but could still happen & i for one would like to see this. Karma!

Agreed, 50p head is beyond his division. offering little whilst being too slow.
A nice lad maybe but reality is what it is.
19 Aug 2021 09:22:59
Red I am and Gazza Red spot on. Yates is LG1 quality imo. Unfortunately how ever much he gets 'stuck in' and grafts, technical ability u have or don't. The two go together which defines the leagues.
10 Aug 2021 12:23:29
That is believable considering when he did play he spent most of the time arguing with the ref.
25 Nov 2020 12:41:45
Last season yes. This yr he's lucky he's not sent off.

Check out the bird site: silverdalelover's vid on Carvalhlo at Forest. A reminder of the asset we have.
