Kid in the Riot

Oh yeah, he certainly will already know which way he's going. Apparently TRASH brief took 5 hours yesterday and the Council's defence just 1. Assuming the judge goes in the Council's favour then the big question is: will he allow TRASH the right to go to the Court of Appeal? If he does allow an appeal, I fancy TRASH will take it and that is just as bad news for Roverzzz as it means further delay.

Doubtful, I can't read the judge's mind! I think the judge announcing he'll have a decision ready within a week is another little indication that he'll be chucking TRASH's case out though.

Pretty much fair comment. I was speaking to Steve Lansdown about the UWE bowl going tits up and he was grinning like a Cheshire cat.

The A38 to Gloucester?

Just got that one for you...

JR is today. Might get a verdict by the weekend.

Beat Swindon Sat and we'd be 3 pts behind them - and they're currently 9th!

We need to cut our losses on El Bad and get rid in the summer. Not as if no-one saw this coming!

At least the back 3 looks balanced: Williams, El Bad, Osborne

Gotta be worth a cheeky punt on Cunningham to score after what happened on this pitch last time out for him

Stopped there on the way back after our 2-1 win there when Baldock scored

Sorry Nick, I have been mistaken as others have and was referring to the 13 page thread on the Forest Forum as the "infamous" one on SC. It's a truly shocking read!

Those comments are still massively outweighed by the dozens of posts slagging him off. I'll let others click on the link and make their own minds up! I fear he'll be detrimental to this club, Nick, I really do. I don't care how hard he works... Happy to discuss over a pint soon

You gotta be pulling my plonker old boy! That thread is 95% anti SC, as I said. There are several Forest fans on there who claim to have questioned watching football AT ALL with SC in charge! And Im not getting all this OUR manager stuff?! Only cus SL is paying his wage. SC is about as mercenary as managers get - see Notts C and Pompey where he actually helped engineer his move to Forest! Even if by some unlikely occurrence he had some success here, he'd be off in a shot!

Are you volunteering?

But to not take a look at W Elliott even ONCE in a live game this season?? No sorry, that's completely irresponsible. Simply, he's playing our two best CBs as full backs. Playing two CBs together that don't complement each other in the slightest, and playing our best LB as a winger. He's done it 3 games on the trot and its resulted in 2 shit performances and needs to stop. And drop Barnett please.

C'mon, you know that SC won't be winning a popularity contest at Forest anytime soon - or Pompey for that matter. It's difficult to find any comments on the internet praising SC, in fact most of the positive quotes about SC come from SC himself! I don't see how GJ is relevant either, his approval rating at City is still very high. His ill-informed dissenters are very much in a minority.

Well, on that we can agree. Maybe we should repeat what Forest did and draft SOD in as coach for the last 13 games! I'm just ****ed off that SC is our manager, and on that I'm sure we'll never agree

Uh oh - someone hasn't seen the infamous thread on the Forest forum when SC joined us! I think you'll find I've summarised the views expressed by 95% of the posts on that thread very succinctly! And I'd add I know several Forest season ticket holders who said exactly the same.

Which is why he was Head Coach here Nick and not manager, only our board and many fans don't seem to appreciate the subtle differences...doomed to fail really. Interestingly there's a fair few quotes on the Forest forum that suggest SC should stick to coaching as well...

Very good. Almost up there with this effort from a Forest fan:

As Barrs says, nothing to do with Notts C - it's hardly one of the bigger city football rivalries. Forest/Derby is the biggie in those parts. He was despised at Forest due to his ridiculous, bullshit post-match interviews, his massive unjustified ego, his "direct" anti-football style of play, his lack of intelligence, persevering with tactics/players that don't work, bringing in physical "can do the dirty" types as opposed to play footballers with ability and nearly taking them down but for the saving grace of SOD coming in as coach. Think that just about covers it.

SC is absolutely despised by Forest fans, Nogbad.

Why then, in your response to nibor's post which is 100% about SC, is the first word "SOD"?

Ah yes, the Bristol City managers job and the Liverpool managers job. They are both jobs, and that's where the similarities end. 7th is hardly a great finish for Liverpool, missing out on Europe alltogether. They could've fired Rodgers on the back of that, others have certainly been given their marching orders for a lot less.
