Cotterill in. Players out.

I'm sick of people shouting for Cotterill to be sacked. This would not bring any benefit to NFFC, only more instability.

Cotterill needs a transfer window to hopefully build a better team than we have at the moment.

I wouldn't be overly upset to see any players leave in January. If we get good money for any one of them, then we should take it, and use it to buy quality from the lower leagues, or get Premiership fringe players in on loan.

Yes, a massive part of a mangers job is to motivate and give confidence. However, motivation and confidence ultimately comes from within a person.

If you don't rate your boss, does that mean that you have the right to give up trying and fighting for the same cause?

SC is here to stay, Sutton. Now start embracing it already.

Sutton is bang on with his man management comment.

"Sutton is bang on with his man management comment.

"If the players can't score, defend or score goals (basically play football) but they could before, then what's changed?"

In the main the defence has changed. We miss Earnshaw as we could no longer afford him and his form was declining but the defence is our big weak link. Partly McC is at fault for changing the style when the players weren't good enough to adapt. Maybe Cotterill can address that, we do look a little more tough to score against but have let in way too many.

When I think of Davies' time I don't think of us turning teams over I think of us as being workmanlike, tough to beat and tight at the back. He deserves credit as we've had a very limited bunch at the back, Chambers and Morgan are hardly world beaters, I don't see many teams banging our doors down for any of them (or any other players, McGugan, etc either).

A bit too extreme boogaloo, even for a message board. NFFC fans such as Aladdin and Sutton and SRF shouted for ND to go and they got their wish..... now the chickens have come home to roost and it's not a pretty site.

I'm sure you'll bounce back though afterall you've won to European Cups and are a massive club with brilliant support

Woh when did I ever say I wanted ND out!

Okay apologies SRF, you want SM out and that was interlinked to a certain degree with ND.

Fingers crossed. Cotterill isn't the only bad manager! I wouldn't be too surprised if Gunter and McGugan went but neither are good enough for the Prem. They're probably the two that can be covered easier here too so hope they both go and good luck to them
