Is it Working?

Is this system working with SOD? because I seriously do not know.

It seems like one week we play really well then the other like this week we mess it up. There is just so much inconsistency from this side and I'm not going to lie when you look at this squad top 6 must surely be the aim at least and looking at the display today, yes Hull shouldn't have scored their second goal, but we did not deserve to win and when you look at many other games we have glossed over such as Crystal palace away and blackpool we have been lucky to grab a point at the end and surely we must be looking to do better. I know we said this team takes time to gel but it is December now, and surely the results should be getting more consistent not less.

The one question I ask is do you really think SOD is the man to take us into the PL? as i really do not know and that is worrying because if we don't have belief, then what chance do we have of getting promoted?

Thought's?

You build a side. This is why QPR are likely to go down because they just sighed players that should be better than what they have without thinking about the team. It's the same thing we've done to an extent.

Look I am a Rovers fan and I never thought I would give any sort of advice to Forest.

When I read comments like "playing 1 up front don't work" shows there is a total lack of understanding of how the master runs his team, I have watched and listened to the man for years and I just love the way he gets his teams to play. To get that kind of performance he needs time and supporters to understand what he is doing.
He beats Cardiff and he is the best. He loses two on the run and he should be sacked, thats football supporters.
Sean is a realist and knows if he fails to get in to the play off's he will face the sack.
I wish we still had him back at Donny but when the Chairman says "Your job is safe" Its the kiss of death as we all know.


I will leave you with one thought........ remember when we were bottom of the league and we beat you 4-1 (?) well we went on to have the best record in the league till the end of that season and just failed to get in the play off's. Before that run Sean had to endure the rants of "Sack him".

It takes time so give him the benefit of the doubt and get 100% behind him at least till the end of the season.

HE IS THE BEST

I agree alexmyhero

He needs time

Rumor is from inside the club that he is about to be given his marching orders.

Thats the madness of football Webbo.

He is the most honourable man in football and that doesn't mean to say he can't be ruthless if need be.

Cloughie had Taylor to protect him and Sean needs Richard O'Kelly from Walsall watching his back.

Sean will turn it around, he is not the best at talking the game up but he is the best manager in the Championship.

best manager in the Championship.

Not being disrespectful but how?

As he has no proven record in the championship.

Try taking this on board:

That he kept little Donny in the Championship on a shoe string.

We were the second most respected team in the division for playing good effective football, Swansea being the best.

He had bigger clubs chasing him to sign for them but because of his loyalty refused to go. I think he learnt his lesson from that experience.

It wasn't his fault we were relegated, but thats another story.

The fact that he kept us in the Championship for 3 seasons with league 1 players speaks volumes for him.

He is still greatly missed at Donny. I don't think I will ever see his style of football again here but you will if he is given time.

Don't forget that element of luck we all need at times. Sir Alex can thank Robbins for scoring that goal which kept him in a job at United. The rest is history.

Webbo,
I think your inside information was wrong, Sean is not on his way out!
Sean will make everyone of the sceptics eat their words of treachery by the end of the season, mark my words.
As for the twitter comments, the boy is an idiot and should be publicly flogged with a wet lettuce.

Hi Alex....

It did come from inside. I stick by what was put as I know the source would not say stuff to stir things up. On saying that it will be a 2 + 2 thing that probably started on twitter and has rolled down within and sent out by text.

I have no issue reporting stuff I hear and people on here know I don't just make stuff up for the sake of a reaction.

I'm glad, if true, that it is wrong and do not want him to leave!
