Nottingham Forest Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 I'll pass thanks cms. Things do take time but unfortunately we don't have time. If you're happy with possibility of playing League One football next season then continue to back the manager. Until he starts to get results, I won't be backing him. Call me what you like but that's football. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also what he says is nonsense, I have heard him say loads of times now "it's what you do in either box that counts not what you do in the middle", what nonsense, if he thinks midfield is not important no wonder you are in trouble. I'm not a Forest fan, so from a neutral point of view if you don't sack him soon, you'll be looking at relegation rather than promotion. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
GG17 Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 Wanting a manager out because he's trying to attack more is slightly harsh to be fair. You looked pretty useful against us, sort the defence out and you'll be more than fine. Just seen the goals, what's Derbyshire got the hump about when Ward runs off celebrating?

Nottingham Forest Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 That's the problem. We don't have no inbetween. When Davies was in charge we defended alot and had a good tight defence and built from the back. We didn't score many goals but if we got one, we could usually hold out and nick the win. With McClaren, he seems to have gone the opposite way. A bit like Holloway and Blackpool. Attack being the best form of defence etc etc. The problem is though, when your attack aren't scoring and the defence are conceding, don't you think the defence are going to get a bit disappointed and ****ed off? I know I would. Because it makes the defenders look ****. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
arcturus15 Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 Wednesday fan here, went to watch the Hull game today as my friend invited me (studying in Hull) and for £14 it seemed a decent price. Hull pretty much dominated the game, Portsmouth didn't really threaten but did have a free header on a corner that should have been buried. Not sure what the sending off was about, I thought originally a Hull player had been sent off but turned out to be Varney. Hull could have probably won by more but were a bit wasteful. Not too bad for a £14 ticket. Good atmosphere. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

sebs Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 It's rubbish. We lost to Swansea against ten men as well but that's another story for another day. We just can't score or defend at the minute. McClaren is obviously doing something wrong in training. What were Derby's goals like?I was optimistic when McClaren took over but right now, I want him to leave. If we continue the way we are we will get relegated. I don't care what you say about losing players and signing new ones. From the games I've seen and the comments from people and talking to people, we seem to be trying to attack more. Davies built the team on a solid defence so we could nick games. It's not pretty but it works. McClaren must have abolished that in training since he's taken over. If we don't pick up 6 points from our next 3 games then he has to go. The sooner he realises the better. Because eventually, if results don't pick up we'll start to fall behind and eventually we'll be in a relegation battle and could even be relegated. If we were to be relegated, I can't see us going up for a few seasons because all our strikers will probably want to leave. Infact most of the squad probably will. If the board had backed Billy in the January transfer window a few seasons ago maybe we could be in the Premier League. wtf wtf wtf how can you start shouting for a manager's head when you don't even go to ****ing games?! i hate football fans Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually thinking about it, probably just short of £100. Went to the Play-Off Semi Final and the Leciester game last season which was good. I've spent money inside the ground, does that count? Or are we just talking about tickets? Probably just short of £100 all in all. I haven't been to a game no. I watched the West Ham game, I've listened to the second half of the Leciester game, this season. All of the Barnsley game and some of the Doncaster game. In all those we sounded crap.

Barkermush Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 Football is costly now adays, the fans suffer the most with the cost of modern day football. I'd like to go to more away games, but for the coach & ticket your talking £50+ to some games, then drinks, food, program etc on top. I could afford to do a few more than I do, but I refuse to. I've got a st, £426 for buying it early. Then they were charging £15 for a carling cup 1st and 2nd round games at home to League 2 Burton and Barnet. I went on the Burton game because I was given a ticket for £5 off a friend, but I refused to pay £15 for the Barnet game & stayed away. The club said they asked Barnet about lowering the ticket prices, but Barnet refused. Winds me up, now we have MK Dons at home and it's £15 again, even though Norwich charged £10 for their carling cup game against MK Dons. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
G-Man11 Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 Burnley charging £426 for a season ticket? That's a lot more than I spent on mine and we have a much bigger fanbase. Also do you really need a program fgs ? I agree away games are expensive but you can cut down the costs by doing stuff like not buying a program, eating before you leave etc. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
