no he wont be going to Forest

[blade too long]

Chris Wilder will not be going to Forest , save any banal threads of his immenent departure due to lack of funds

 

[Scooter_mcgavin]

and this thread helped how?

 

[JonnyRed(WCFC)]

Thought you were talking about Clough jr then


He won't go whilst Burton still have the potential to play in the League Cup Final

 

[Dkc]

So Karanka has been sacked / forced out? He's done a decent job given that he reportedly didn't have full control who they brought in, and had to deal with an egotistical owner. I can see Forest dropping to mid table now

 

[steve26272]

To be fair I don’t think they will look at him
Not high profile enough, expect the usual suspects or a foreign coach, maybe Carlos?
But, this would be the one that would worry me.... proper club, good ground, money, aspersions, some decent players and no uprooting of family. If they sold him the above, and treble wages with a couple of mil for promotion- would you begrudge him?

 

[JohnDenver]

They’ll go for Jokanavic.

 

[BushBlade]

They’ll go for Jokanavic.

He was very quick to turn Stoke down which makes me think either he’s got an issue over his pay off from Fulham or it’s a done deal with Forest.

 

[Harry's Game]

Roy Keane ?

 

[DifferentClass]

Luhukay please.

 

[west_yorks_blade]

Another one Bruce could have gone for if he’d held his nerve.

Must be kicking himself that he opted for the rust bucket now.

Reckon they had him lined up before Christmas in all honesty, seem to recollect some sighting of him near the Greek owners office in London and that theyd already had some sort of talks.

 

[TCsLoveChild]

wow, they won their last league match and are one place below the playoffs! The next manager is going to be under some pressure UTB

And the Pigs could have got Karanka, who’d probably have been ideal to replace Jos. More of an upgrade than the change of direction Bruce is.

I’ve dug this one out of the archives 3 times this week.

Hee...is thats whats called 'striking whilst the irons hot?'


Or in Niges case...


Striking whilst the nine irons hot!?!

They were 3-0 up against Norwich so that's not exactly a result to shout about but I agree, strange decision.

 

[Fulwood Blade]

True, CW won't be going to Forest..........and how do I know?

Well, big gob Robbie Savage said this morning that Nigel Clough should go to Forest.

Does this idiot of a radio 5 presenter realise the turgid football that ourselves and Derby had to put up with? Had nothing really against Clough Jr, but the football was just boring - get 1 nil up and try and not concede.....FFS !

He's a great fit at Burton, just leave him there - wouldn't wish him on anyone really.

Savage has a habit of getting his mum to come on the radio - like this morning - SHE knows a damn site more than her idiot of a boy.

Anyway - Savage belongs in the twat section for saying he didn't have ANY interest in the pigs v Blades derby last September - FFS you stupid prick, you are supposed to be a presenter - do your fucking job properly.

Rant over

UTB

Yes, I think he did realise, given he actually played for Clough at Derby.

 

[Fulwood Blade]

ahha yes, good shout - was it his last club?

UTB

 

[BushBlade]

ahha yes, good shout - was it his last club?

UTB

I think so. He tends to stick up for his ex managers which isn’t ideal for a pundit but understandable from a human perspective.

 

[TCsLoveChild]

LOL "the last time they started and ended a season with the same manager was in 2010-11." BBC That is some record UTB

 

[Boxer Blade]

I suppose the reason he got sacked is not because they are just outside the playoffs more to do with 'sensible' expectation levels, when you spend the money he has you would expect to be challenging for autos and at least top six as a minimum as we are now into the second half of the season

 

[Pollingtonblade]

Given the OP predictions down the years I’m
More worried he will go here.

 

[Westran]

and this thread helped how?

tbf I'm glad the thread started in the way it did, rather than another meltdown. It's like chernobyl in here at the best of times.

 

[Westran]

Didn't Karanka ask for his contract to be terminated rather than being sacked? Sounds more like a disagreement than a performance related sacking.

 

[Brian Deane]

It was said he was on borrowed time for not being in the top 6 at the new yesr.

 

[AnglesWithDirtyFaces]

It's a strange decision that's for sure, with their league position. It must have been a fall out behind the scenes, probably over money. Anyway this could be in our favour as I can see them dropping down the league table now.

UTB

Apparently. I heard earlier that it was related to the recent appointment of a DoF.

I always detested the publicity seeking gobshite for his complete lack of knowledge outside the Prem. I didn't know he'd said that, so that makes his BBC salarly even less justifiable. He presumably keeps his job as he is a 'character', albeit a pigshit thick one.
