Agreed. Itโ€™s fine for the primary school level. It loses its appeal as the skill of players ramps up ๐Ÿคฃ

I had such high hopes for this season and itโ€™s all been wrecked less than two months in with no hope to come up for air on the horizon.

The timing is what is so infuriating IMO.

It seems clear Marinakis largely made this decision in June, so thatโ€™s when he shouldโ€™ve pulled the trigger.

I wish he and Nuno could have set their egos aside and made it work.

Angeball is what it is โ€” painful, with occasional spectacular flourishes.

I will be bitterly disappointed if I wake up and Ange Postecoglou remains in charge of #NFFC.

All-time blunder of management in handling the coaching role this last five months.

Why did Evangelos Marinakis buy a Ferrari if he was just going to give the keys to a drunk 8-year-old?

I just want to wear a Forest shirt with pride one week in October, not disappointed resignation to my fate ๐Ÿคฃ

Sure, if youโ€™d have said before the game, Forest will get a road point, I probably sign up for it.

But the draw came in a very Angeball way on the heels of 2 disappointing Angeball classics.

Thatโ€™s my frustration. He didnโ€™t learn from last seasonโ€™s PL flop and Forest will get more of the same.

I just didnโ€™t want Angeball. I saw what it was at Tottenham and itโ€™s been exactly that so far with Forest. Just a mess of a first two months of a season that started with so much hope and promise.

Maybe a mid-week win in Europa will get things turned around, but ๐Ÿคท

Angeball sucks. So does your โ€œperspectiveโ€

Ange doesnโ€™t. And it appears this was Marinakisโ€™ plan all along as executed by Edu โ€” to push out Nuno and hand the squad to Ange.

Iโ€™ve seen little evidence, with Spurs or through four games with Forest, that Ange can push the right buttons โ€” with subs or tactical changes โ€” to switch momentum or see games out.

Letโ€™s see if he can prove me wrong. #NFFC #COYR

Welcome back, Dominguez! Love matching him rampage around โ€” plus a crazy strong bench

I agree. Nunoโ€™s style had its limitations. Iโ€™m not some Nuno truther. It was a boring style, to be honest, and ineffective down the stretch last season.

I just see no evidence that Ange is an upgrade at manager. I guess a 2-2 draw with chances is more fun than last seasonโ€™s 1-0 loss to Everton ๐Ÿคท

27.09.2025 14:48 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 1    ๐Ÿ” 0    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 1    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

Exactly. I saw this movie on repeat with Angeโ€™s Tottenham teams.

Sod off, wanker. Itโ€™s not about one game.

Itโ€™s about his history in the PL at Tottenham and three straight blown games โ€” Swansea, Burnley and Real Betis.

Iโ€™m glad youโ€™re embrace crap coaches and mediocrity ๐Ÿคท

Iโ€™ve followed soccer for three decades, so only being a Forest fan for a few years has nothing to do with it.

If youโ€™re satisfied with blowing 3 straight leads โ€” to Swansea, Burnley and Real Betis โ€” congrats.

Iโ€™ll be over here unhappy about Angeโ€™s grand tradition of being unable to see out games.

27.09.2025 14:44 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 1    ๐Ÿ” 0    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 1    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

Yes, Iโ€™m pathetic for thinking blowing a lead in three straight games given his history of blown leads at Tottenham is pathetic.

Keep apologizing for Ange โ€” after Swansea, after Burnley and yet again at Real Betis. Iโ€™ll be over still expecting more from those games.

I guess, on the bright side, they didnโ€™t got full Swansea. But will #NFFC ever actually win a game, any game, under Ange? 0-2-2 ainโ€™t good enough ๐Ÿคท

25.09.2025 03:22 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 0    ๐Ÿ” 0    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 1    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

So, I had to watch the game on replay because of work and family commitments, but I finally caught #NFFCโ€™s return to Europe at Real Betis.

I already hate Angeball. If Nunoโ€™s style was deemed a bit boring, at least it got results. Postecoglouโ€™s style of melting down when it matters most is worse.

I had already concluded from his time at Tottenham that I didnโ€™t want him as the manager, though ๐Ÿคท
