Steve Cotterill

Frank can stick it as well, another liar employed by ND and his cronies

Dont be fooled by the club appointing a 'fan' favourite as the new face... the same old regime is running things.. hence our signing of Ephiram from QPR BEFORE we even got a manager... AND the interview from Clark stating that 40 applications were in, he had to sift through them etc... 3 hours later in comes Cotterill.

Its a joke, the protests will continue until the cancer is removed from our club. Cotterill will get hell and he will deserve it, the man has come to the wrong club and the wrong time.. maybe not his fault, but he will suffer along with the rest of the tumours rotting away inside the CG.
 
Or results starts going our way again. Fickle bunch these protestors. :D:D:D Very hard to take you guys seriously .

Why would Cotterill get hell? He has taken the job to try and get us playing to the potential we have, he should be praised for coming to this place after that clown McClaren and his team left our dressing room in such a state. He now faces an almost unwinnable task I doubt even Clough could do. The attitude from the players and fans stinks at the moment so he's balls if you ask me.

It has nothign to do with results, its to do with the club being run by incompetence. A club that had very little debt when Doughty took over, that now owes between 60-100m to him depending on which of his 'mouthpieces' you want to believe.

Mark Arthur the liar who spouted out to the press that Pratley and Whittingham were signing for us.... yeah good one. The same man who gave us such lines as 'We are serious about promotion, are you?" when selling season tickets... iirc the year we last went down to league one.

The same people who called us fans 'pond life' as we dared to disagree with them. The same people who only allow Radio Nottingham to cover the club, as they are puppets on a string letting out certain information.

The same owners who lied to McLaren about his 10m budget that mysteriously dropped to around 1m......

Forest are slowly dieing, anyone who cant see that needs to take their fingers out of their ears, stop happy clapping and read about the facts. Dont listen to the radio or how Doughty is the clubs biggest fan.. get into the nitty gritty of it all.

OK ill agree Cotterill is the unlucky man in the middle of this, but are you suggesting that a manager that has won 3 of his last 23 championship games as Portsmouth manager is really that capable of making us better? Its a joke appointment, just as Clark was in an attempt to placate the fans.

Until the cancer is removed we will await our inevitable death.... the fans are already staying away, money is going to stop coming into the club and thats the way we will ahve to fight.
 
The debt, lets see how that has accrued:

Maybe 12 managers and their payoffs..... that will come into it.
How many other clubs have our income and yet go 70m into debt and achieve.... er nothing but 3 years in League One!

Ive seen the accounts and the wages we pay are silly, but lets not forget Doughtys mates in that... not shy of 1m per for that gaggle of useless idiots.

MaClaren was promised 10m its well known in the right circles and we only spent 'upfront' just shy of 800k - 500k on Greening and 300k on Miller... yes the latters deal could go over 1m if triggers are met. Verhoek... homesick and broken promises... yes he would have earned more here than at ADO, but the deal was not 2.5m in the bank for ADO plus we reneged on what he was to get... his contract was backloaded assuming Premier League football.

Lets not compare our situation to others, Forest fans and income is substantial and thus we should be able to compete at the top end. The losses are staggering and inflated, I have no doubts that this club has been mismanaged at all levels during Doughtys tenure. And although he is better than Wray... the club should have gone to Sandy Anderson and not Doughty and his underhand tactics.

Steve wasnt such a bad appointment, he was lied to and on that basis it was always going to fail. He ended up signing players that he had to as there were no alternatives, but im glad he has gone.

Doughty hasnt gone, he has stepped aside... dont doubt his involvement, it wont be financial but he is firstly refusing to sell for 25m and is wanting more... yeah real fan there, written off his debts as promised.. NOT. 2nd he got Clark in and was involved in his remit... ND wont ever keep out of it.

I also agree that apathy will reign in again, but thats because most of the fans are idiots just happy to have a club and games in the middle of League One against Morecambe would be exciting for them.
 
So is it just new manager syndrome that's helped him win two pretty tough games on the trot? Because I have to admit I thought he would be a terrible failure.

1 - Steve Mac - awful manager, didnt have the dressing room and results were always going to be dire... anyone with half a brain cell could get that team winning.

2 - As above still a decent squad to work with, any manager who gets them to play a normal game will get wins... after all that team had made the playoffs 2 years in a row.

Same problems exist though, ND, MA and the bull about finances still strong.

The cancer remains.
