Where's Strett gone?

Remember when he was praising the last transfer window by saying that bringing in ogrady for Antonio was good business? He wouldn't have it that ogrady is utter Shiite which surely by now has been proven beyond doubt?

Can we not just sulk in private, please BS?

I think I bumped into that Paul Williams in the Clifton KFC after the Bristol City game. Reunited him with his big bag of Popcorn Chicken. Thought he looked familiar!

I remember seeing JFH in Maccie D's on Radcliffe Rd when he was a coach at Forest. Diet of champions....😜

I wouldn't say it's all you need to say......

Late payments, winding up orders, no CEO, no club secretary, embargo etc etc etc etc etc
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Can confirm there is no secretary. Last one left and apparently there is a footy league rule book that no one at the club has a clue about which may explain a lot of the delayed and failed transfers recently.

Well - only just saw this. Shows how much attention I've been paying. Fawaz is ruining this club and will continue to do so, but Freedman was no great shakes anyway. Just stupid timing. Give him until the end of the season unless you have a guaranteed improvement as successor. Clown.

Clemence is still bitter cos Shilton was better than him

Shame Ron Greenwood could never make his mind up on that one!

I think I'll avoid Twitter until this evening. Yesterday it ranged from a Dougie Freedman wake, anger at owners and still a few defending them while blaming fans for everything. Even if the fans got him sacked (which to me is rubbish), then if you're annoyed about it; you still have to blame the owner for listening rather to those. As I say earlier "deflection"

For a team under an embargo it was a good deal; one that should see Forest out of an embargo.

Selling your best players and replacing them with a downgrade when in trouble is something Leicester fans have absolutely no knowledge of

Jeez .. it's moments like this that remind me why I decided not to renew my season ticket last year after 27 years of having one .....

What a mess, what a joke.

Hoons

Was erming and arghing about a ticket this season and got a half season ticket at Christmas since we were atleast stable.

Won't get one till fawas goes. He's toxic for the club.

Anyone who buys a season ticket for next season is either delusional, or very brave. 13k attendance next season?

Gary Lineker has today posted an article in The Guardian...

http://www.theguardian.com/football/2016/mar/13/gary-lineker-leicester-city-premier-league-title

He is saying that, in all his life this will be the greatest, blah, blah, blah...

I would suggest the consortium he was involved in getting Leicester off from cheating by writing off over £30m of debt easily trumps this. Without that platform, Leicester would probably not be where they are now.

We've escaped the winding up order again today but incurred additional costs as it got to court, we'll probably be taken to court for those

Simple messsage;

"flock off El-fluckwit"

At least the U21's have won today, beating Barnsley 1-0!

There is a press conference just kicking off now with Andy Reid and Chris Cohen. It sounds like the former is going to be helping out the first team in a coaching role for the remainder of the season.

Guys, you seriously need to get a grip

Fawaz is hopefully going nowhere - if he were to walk, then that would probably be the end of NFFC

Let's just look at the situation - Freedman was mediocre at best - in fact a amount of the time he was crap - whether sacking him now was right or wrong is debatable - but it seems just so convenient to just slate the owner every time something happens.

Personally, I'm not sad to see the back of Freedman - he was a rubbish manager - I just hope the next appointment is one that actually has pedigree and can take us forward - because none of the ones since Billy left have had an ounce f managerial skill between them

Pearson or Laws for me

And before you just get on my back - look at the statistics and performances under Freedman - 33% win rate the guy was a joke

Paul Williams in charge until summer but a possibility of someone coming in to help.

They don't look very happy about it all!!

"Fawaz is hopefully going nowhere - if he were to walk, then that would probably be the end of NFFC"

Absolute and utter tripe
There comes a point when the unknown is less of a scary prospect than the known. If you can't see that we're a total shambles then must be either by choice or head in sand

Pearson working for Fawaz, that'll be a little unlikely and explosive if it happened

He needs to go, put the club on the market, sell and piddle off back to Kuwait.

He is lumbering the club with increasing levels of debt, that he could write off and that would remove the embargo, but obviously won't because he hopes to recoup his families money after promotion. When he will sell the club any way.

He cares nothing for the fans nor the club. He is using the club as if it were his personal toy.

Needs to go pronto.

Anybody not able to see this has their head firmly buried in the sand of hope/despair.

on what evidence?

posted on 14/3/16

Some people obviously can not see that by sacking Dougie now has made it impossible in the short term to find anybody better.

I quite expect the next manager/coach to be worse, with worse signings and worse results.

The he get's sacked and El-feckwit steps into manage the team himself. Then all the present players leave and the manager/owner recruits a all-stars team from that hotbed of football Kuwait.

By then of course we will be ripping up the Conference. Some time after that a crazed Forest fan driven mad by the f'king idiot assassinates the clown. And that finally draws to a close this long drawn out horror story of embarrassment decline, failure and ridicule.

Story Ends.

" on what evidence?"

It's really flipping obvious

I always saw Fawaz as a lovable ginger stepson type of member of the AH family.

When the family took over and had the 'another star on the shirt' ballax, Fawaz was there, playing with his crayons.
It seems Mubarak gave his daft lad something to keep him occupied, so he couldn't chuff up his family business; which he gave to Abdulaziz.

He is the 'Bunchy' of the family.

Makes you wonder Strett

The Al Hasawi group of companies was well established before Fawaz was even born and even the one that carries his name was set-up when he was a toddler. I think that it's a common misconception that this company is Fawaz's creation, whereas it was just named after him
