22A Posted February 1, 2015 Report Share Posted February 1, 2015 Listening to 606, it was pointed out that Forest have now had five managers in 2 1/2 years. A Forest fan rang in to say they had the fans and money had been thrown at the team, but never time for the Managers. "We've had O'Driscoll, Cotterill and others, but none of them were ever given time to build a team" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BS4 on Tour... Posted February 1, 2015 Report Share Posted February 1, 2015 It's strange how club legends rarely do the business back at their clubs as manager. Eg Brian Tinnion here, Bryan Gunn at Norwich, Alan Shearer at the Toon, Glenn Hoddle at Spurs etc etc. Obviously there are exceptions (Howard Kendall at Everton) but it just seems that the unwritten rule is 'don't go back cos you will harm your reputation with the fans who worship you...'

Phileas Fogg Posted February 1, 2015 Report Share Posted February 1, 2015 Can see them going for Robinson, seems to be outstanding candidate in the lower leagues who could realistically go. Not THAT far for him to relocate either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"We've had O'Driscoll, Cotterill and others, but none of them were ever given time to build a team" Which, ironically, is exactly what those two managers have done for us, in a relatively short time span.

Take your point on those but Shearer is a bit harsh. He had a shocking job on his hands with players that couldn't give a toss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drew Peacock Posted February 1, 2015 Report Share Posted February 1, 2015 Can see them going for Robinson, seems to be outstanding candidate in the lower leagues who could realistically go. Not THAT far for him to relocate either. I get the impression the owners like big names. I expect they will get a Johnny Foreigner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aussie Posted February 1, 2015 Report Share Posted February 1, 2015 They'll go for a big name, they are a club and owners with that sort of attitude. Owners probably have never heard of Robinson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

samo II Posted February 1, 2015 Report Share Posted February 1, 2015 Hardly surprising. Shockingly bad manager. Yup. A fair few with less insight bristled when Danny Mills pointed out he was crap, but despite Mills obviously having an axe to grind, not sure he did anything other than tell the truth, albeit a bit directly. Probably be back in a job inside 12 months, mind you. Knows far too many old boys not to be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aussie Posted February 1, 2015 Report Share Posted February 1, 2015 Roy Keane is available... That's exactly the sort of guy that fits. High profile. Big name. They'd pick him over Robinson everyday of the week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrahamC Posted February 1, 2015 Report Share Posted February 1, 2015 Hilariously on Twitter yesterday a Forest fan wrote to their owners "there's a bloke by the name of Cotterill tearing up league one, wonder if we should approach him"? "Oh no, you sacked him". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moloch Posted February 1, 2015 Report Share Posted February 1, 2015 I get the impression the owners like big names. I expect they will get a Johnny Foreigner. Is he the bloke who was at Fulham? Or am I thinking of Jean A. Tigana? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
