Good appointment just hope he gets a chance.


2.) 06 Oct 2020 19:01:42
Better than we've had recently. Good luck Chris!


3.) 06 Oct 2020 19:02:52
Plays attacking football 4-3-3, knows the league and knows how to get a team promoted, what's not to like.
Eve 79 will be happy 🤔😂🤣.


4.) 06 Oct 2020 19:07:15
I’m extremely happy with this. I’d imagine we will go 3-4-3 or 4-3-3 under him. We might even go 4-4-2!


5.) 06 Oct 2020 19:18:58
Knows the league, and how to get teams promoted so that is good, but i think Brighton fans will argue that he gets teams to play attacking football.

He has got some decent players to work with, he need to make them mor confident and loosen the leash that has been wrapped tightly around them.

Good luck to him, and all of the players he chooses for the main squad.


6.) 06 Oct 2020 19:24:32
Plays attacking football? From what I have read he is almost a copy of lamouchi, not tactically aware of how to change games, sticks with the same predictable style, even had his own players begging him to be more attacking in games, but it all hearsay, as he does have a good record of getting promotion so let’s hope he can do it here. Good luck to Sabri shame it did not work out when so close, maybe one day we will find out what happened.


7.) 06 Oct 2020 19:29:05
Hope he’s backed a little in signing a stellar signing at least a winger in. Then squad complete. I’d get us up with this squad. So I’m sure Chris will.


8.) 06 Oct 2020 19:44:03
Brighton sacked him because of his preference for playing one upfront. Won't change style of play even if we did get two forwards who might gel.


9.) 06 Oct 2020 19:50:10
He played 4:5:1 counter attacking at Brighton albeit in the Premier League. Where have we seen that before lol

I hope he did play 4:3:3 in the Championship. I can't remember.


10.) 06 Oct 2020 19:50:20
FFS Monty, you've started it already.

He is a quality manager and has results in getting teams out of the league. Comes across as a real nice guy too.

Welcome Chris, good luck fella, hope you get us climbing the table.


11.) 06 Oct 2020 19:59:48
Im ok with that appointment red dog.
TWF not many sides play 442 anymore.
Even one up can be attacking if the midfielders run beyond and support the striker.


12.) 06 Oct 2020 20:09:14
6-3-1 formation. FTW!


13.) 06 Oct 2020 21:23:06
A stat worth sharing
Houghton managed 206 championship games, winning 108, drawing 60 and losing 38.
Average 1.86 points per game.
332 goals for and 190 against.
4 seasons in championship, finished 1st with Newcastle, 4th and 3rd with Birmingham and 2nd with Brighton.
Doesn't sound defensive to me and a little better than the drivel of late.
Onwards and upwards.


14.) 06 Oct 2020 22:14:36
Got a feeling he's going to need all the luck he can get as it won't be long before fans are picking negatives about him some are already.


15.) 06 Oct 2020 23:43:30
I hope you're right RedDog! Even if we don't win all the time initially, we have the players to play better more watchable footy than we've had forced on us.

It already feels like a cloud has lifted.


16.) 07 Oct 2020 06:44:37
Not pleased the circus continues change again in a few more months there will be somone else as manager musical managers our club is a utter joke, just goes to show sabri didn't pick the players that was signed if he had signed he wdould have been given more time to get the players to gel.
On the appointment of huton no charcter and nothing special just another yes man should have been nigel so will fit right in at forest the nightmere continues.
But ill suppourt who ever is manager as i'm loyal to the great club that is NOTTINGHAM FOREST FC.


17.) 07 Oct 2020 09:37:38
He got longer than most at Forest, going from defensive to ultra defensive, and ripping the team apart that he got to seventh.

He wanted the sack, why else would a players leader do those things.?


18.) 07 Oct 2020 10:05:39
If Hughton gets results then I'm not going to complain about how he does it. But to get results quickly is going to be very hard. McKenna injured and now Arter missing Ireland games with thigh injury. If they are out for any length of time its going to be a tough ask.


19.) 07 Oct 2020 10:15:23
Damson red a bit of contradictory post, you start off by saying our club is an utter joke, and finish saying you’ll always support the great club that is Nottingham forest.


20.) 07 Oct 2020 12:52:30
Our club is a joke at the moment we hire and fire managers at a rate of knots the owners make our club a joke but Brian Clough put the club on the map and made it great for that the club will always be great to me don't know about you stevie f its the owners and so called footballers that make us a laughing stock.

Just heard that Benalouane has agreed terms with a team. It's on a Greek site.

SDNA I believe, I just read the same thing. Well that's another one out the door only another 10 or so to go.


2.) 03 Oct 2020 11:54:42
Is it a loan.


3.) 03 Oct 2020 13:28:43
Only has 1 year left.


4.) 03 Oct 2020 14:10:46
Thank you.

Loannou has signed on a 4 year contract.

Reddog67

1.) 25 Sep 2020 16:04:41
Without having proven themselves either in the Championship, or in a Forest shirt no player should be given a four year contract.


 

 

15 Sep 2020 12:06:53
Apparently middlesbrough and Milwall are interested in Ryan yates at 2 million 😂.

1.) 15 Sep 2020 12:52:19
Will probably sell Yates and buy a cheap import from France. After supporting Forest for 64 years, I am really getting fed up with the club.

Well it is Cooper then and if I am being honest I am surprised at the caliber of people interested.
People have mentioned his playing style at Swansea and though he was playing 4.2.3.1 towards the end he also played 3.5.2 adapting to 5.3.2 when defending which is progresive, however 4.2.3.1 is probably the most used formation in football now and it works well for some top clubs. It is not the formation that matters it is the pace in which it is played and I don't remember the Swansea fans being bored when they beat us 5-1 last year, most of us would be happy with 2 goals. Also 2 successive play offs on a tight budget of selling his best players both years - look where Swansea are now without him. Any way off to Huddersfield now to cheer the lads on and looking forward to getting behind the new man going forward he needs all the help we can give him and together it's up the football league we go

There is no reason it can’t be played at a faster pace dog. That was hughton’s failing .


 

 

01 Sep 2021 13:31:36
New song for CH if tactics don't change
to the tune of one of our own
We're not scoring goals
We're not scoring goals
We need shots on target
Because We're not scoring goals.

In over 50 years of going down the city ground I have never shouted for a manager to get the sack, remarkable as that sounds as we haven't been blessed with that much quality after the big man but at least we were occasionally entertained. I go to almost every match home and away and Houton has brought me to this terrible position where on Saturday against the sheep I'm thinking if we lose he is gone however if we win we are stuck with the most depressing tactical displays every week where our 2 holding midfielders play to rugby union rules where they can continuously pass it but never forward ending with a pass back to the centre back or keeper so they can lump it forward to our lone striker surrounded by defenders we lose the ball and off we go again.
Occasionally once every few matches we may get a shot on target (last one 3 games ago) . I will never ever want the sheep to beat us and I hope we stuff them however we will pay a massive price for it.
Rant over.

It doesn’t matter how pal, no team can recover from 4 straight defeats at the start of the season.


 

 

06 Mar 2021 15:39:35
I am just hoping that Own Goal is contracted for next season as he is our joint top league scorer and again looked most likely today.

Reddog67

1.) 06 Mar 2021 16:14:35
Dont mean this to sound wrong but if our team had 10 shots at john Lennon he'd still be singing today. I give up. Sh#te.


2.) 06 Mar 2021 16:25:35
Taylor had one chance offside or not, and smashed it in the net, he’s surely got to give him a run of games. That’s the onl way we’ll know.


3.) 06 Mar 2021 16:40:01
Only option who has never been given a real chance Stevie.


4.) 06 Mar 2021 16:44:43
Totally agree stevie as you know i'm not a big fan of taylor but anything is better than a static 37 year old and taylor must watch and think, what is he doing that i can't do better?
Same goes f9r lolley ameobi and mighten watching freeman.


5.) 06 Mar 2021 16:55:18
100% support Taylor to start I don’t know what the lad has to do . I expect he speaks his mind . A great goal even though offside. CH has to make a change. Results are results I suppose but Luton beat us and Norwich beat Luton 3 0 today. So if CH plays the same team as he did against Luton next Saturday, my logic tells me we are in for a demoralising hiding to nothing - unless he does something different ie put Kosonovic and Garner in midfield with Mighten the number 10 and Taylor up front . I am not sure re Knockeart as a team player so may be Lolley and Ameobi ( if fit ) ?


6.) 06 Mar 2021 17:10:31
Totally agree with all the above, we need to start with Taylor and perhaps have Murray on for last 20 mins with both up front if were needing a goal. As for Bong can someone give him one 😂.


7.) 06 Mar 2021 17:41:45
Well some interesting comments on here and albeit true.
Forest only have 2 options up front yet rely on a 37 year old.
Grabben is a has been and Taylor is a bit part player.
As for CH's tactics and player choice i can't fathom why he does this?
Play Taylor then utilise Murray.
I really thought Forest had turned a corner but again another loss.
The season was finished before the
it started with a complete new team of transfers.
Poor decisions by the DOF and The fat greek.
Maybe just maybe Forest will avoid relegation but only just.


 

 

14 Jan 2021 16:48:25
I don't think it is fair to judge CH yet. He inherited a squad of defenders and defensive midfielders in an around the relegation zone. His job is to use what he has to move us up the league and develope a group that know each other ready for next season. Lolley and Ameobi have been awful this year but he has to use them. Not sure Mighton is ready to start every week but he now needs gradually more time. Grabban and Tayloy are good strikers but feeding on scraps. CH recognise this and says he needs creativity. Therfore I will judge him at the start of the next season
When he has had 2 windows, this window is always difficult. This current form is no worse than what we have witnessed with the last 2 managers. I missed only about 3 games last season home and away before c.v. and it was dire but we were regularly lucky with one shot on target and a 1-0 win.
So let's give the guy a chance and judge him at the start of next season with a big crowd roaring the lads on and hopefully fulfilling our dreams, in the mean time a lot of dross will be out of contract and he can build a balanced close knit squad.

Reddog67

1.) 14 Jan 2021 17:09:47
Good post 67.


2.) 14 Jan 2021 17:34:34
Hughton won't build anything he will have to make do with what the dof buys him just like the previous coaches.
The problem is reddog he plays boring football and tactics and that won't change.
Prefer him gone, he's been very lucky to nick some games and no convincing performances.


3.) 14 Jan 2021 18:00:51
Will he, or some of the players be around next term, i do not think so.

A lot of players that play regularly now will either be dropped to the bomb squad or gotten rid of.

Should you really keep playing players that keep making costly mistakes just to have a team that knows each other.

Players need to know, if you are out of form you are out of the team.


4.) 14 Jan 2021 18:22:44
CH says he now has the final say on transfers therfore it will fair to judge him on transfers going forward, ld be surprised if he doesn't have final say or why would he say that and why would he have come here in the first place, his stock is still high and would have got a good job.
Also we can't keep shouting manager out every time because that's what got us into the position we are in. We need to stick with him and judge him on his decisions when he has had his time.


5.) 14 Jan 2021 18:49:28
That doesn't mean he is identifying players it just means he can say he doesn't fancy a player the dof is after.


6.) 14 Jan 2021 18:58:34
Is it the fact that ch is a boring coach with boring tactics or is it he's trying to do what he can with what he's got let's face the players we have ain't all that good if they was wed have gone up last year well if I was ch and had the choice not one of those who failed last season would put a first team shirt on again.


7.) 14 Jan 2021 19:00:50
Spot on Reddog. CH is having to play a certain way because he doesn't have the players to play any other way.
The youngsters coming through aren't good enough yet and now is not the time to give them practice in first team.
Im sure the coaching staff who watch the players every day have a good idea who is ready to step up to first team,
we need points to get safe and so if we have to grind it out, so be it, Its a needs must scenario.
There is a bit of movement getting rid of fringe players and by June 7 or 8 are out of contract,
CH will then have the chance to get in his own players.


8.) 14 Jan 2021 19:02:30
Fair point 79, I'm just hoping he is stronger than that.
I understand where you are coming from, its a stick or twist situation with managers and I have too often been twist and regreteted it when we have finished up with worse and I have been waiting till we get one to stick with and I am saying I think this may be the one.


9.) 14 Jan 2021 19:15:52
Trentender i have to disagree.

The clubs he has got promoted you will notice fans say they like him because he is a good person, and off course he got them promoted.

They will also go on to say the way he gets his teams to play is so boring.


10.) 14 Jan 2021 19:17:02
I gave up with marinakis sticking reddog when he sacked warburton and then went out and bought in a whole team plus in the next two widows despite what he said when he first bought the club.
Look what Oniel did playing the same sort of way?
Much better than Hughton has but still sacked for no reason.


11.) 14 Jan 2021 19:30:26
O'Neil speaking his mind might be the reason Forest, the owner is probably expects those he employs to bow down to what he wants.


12.) 14 Jan 2021 21:53:56
GF there are loads of fans complaining their teams are doing ok but football boring, prime example Spurs or any team managed by Mourinio but they win trophies.


13.) 15 Jan 2021 09:09:58
Trentender you do not get it, do you.

I have said before, i hope he turns it around, because i want Forest to win games and trophies, i will accept boring football if that Forest are winning games and trophies.

I have also said before i want to be entertained, i would prefer, as any of us would to be entertained while Forest are winning.

The current one was brought in by the club but before he was i said on here bring Howe in, or someone else that gets their teams to play attacking football.

Once the current one had the poisoned chalice i said, although the football will be boring he at least is proven to get teams up.

Since he has been at Forest he however keeps playing players that make costly mistakes, he drops players that have good games

He has brought Knockeart back who let's face it has not done enough to deserve to be brought back.

Althohgh the team has not lost in a while the wins in the league in that period have been too spaced out.

Like i have said recently, if he has players come in, in Jan and they do not improve the team, and the wins continue to be too spaced out then he will be gone.

He would not be given yet another window.


14.) 15 Jan 2021 19:36:58
And he keeps playing Yates.

The madness was signing all these over 30s players in the summer, its refreshing that CH is trying to put that right and get rid of some, not many on this site would disagree with getting rid of Arter. Swan is different, however look what a good loan has done for Brennan and from what I have seen of Swan he looks a good one for the future but is not screaming to me play me I am ready for major involvement.

If we can't get the right player I would rather not sign any, we have enough to survive and do our business in the summer. No last minute panic buys.
