Tooj Posted June 12, 2011 Share Posted June 12, 2011 There's a cracking special on Brazilian football in this month's FourFourTwo. Especially the parts about how they're now producing some of the worlds best defenders, yet haven't produced a traditional world class Brazilian flair player for a while now. Hopefully Neymar and Ganso can change that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rich Posted June 12, 2011 Share Posted June 12, 2011 Billy Davies leaves Nottingham Forest. Fucking hell, finally. Amazed he lasted so long. Not a huge Forest fan so didn't mind seeing them continually fucking up, but Davies is an arsehole of the highest order. Hopefully he's out of work for a decent spell, the shitty little cunt.

They are in a far better position than when he joined from a certain Colin Colderwood. He comes across as a twat, but he's a good manager. All of his teams always get around the play off's after he joins them. Forest, Derby and Preston. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Posted June 12, 2011 Share Posted June 12, 2011 He should have had them up by now though, shouldn't he? Given the status of their club in that division and the players he had/has at his disposal. Never said anything about his management ability, but as a man he's the pits. Universally loathed by colleagues. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Universally loathed by colleagues. Forest were in league one just 3 years ago. They also haven't been in the Premier League for 12 years. So saying that they should be backup is a little foolish for me. They were fighting relegation under Calderwood and in just 1 season later they finished 3rd. Also the forest board did not back him up with his signings as well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

This season especially they fucked it right up. For me that equates to underachievement on his part, and I'm surprised it's taken him this long to be pushed out. They should have been in the Premiership by now, regardless of where they were three seasons ago. I can't ignore being branded "foolish" by you, as well, I'm sorry but howay man, give me a break.

Just because a team has good support does not mean that they should be assumed to be one of the favorites to go back up. Forest are in a much better position than when he joined, they should be thankful for it considering some of the shite they have appointed. Megson, Kinnear come to mind.

That is not the sole basis for my argument. They have been in prime positions FOR THE LAST TWO SEASONS to gain automatic promotion and have faded badly, losing out in the playoffs both times. Not only that, but during his entire tenure there (and in his previous jobs) Billy Davies has been an arsehole of the highest order. So not only has he essentially failed in his remit of getting Forest promoted (which is what has been expected of them the past two seasons), but he's been a charmless little bastard and a thorn in the board's side at the same time. That is why I'm surprised he's lasted until now. They should have been up when they came 3rd, they should have been up automatically last season given the strength of the league around them and the strength of their squad (not the size of their crowds).

The same board that has a "transfer committee" that buys players not based on what the manager wants. I would call that not backing your manager and hence you have an very unhappy manager.

When was it there aim, after he guided them to 3rd after they just survived relegation the season before. If that's a case then he's a victim of his own success then. I always believed they were punching above there own weight as well when they finished 3rd. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
