"Both parties entered into the relationship in good faith, however, there was a difference in the understanding of the development strategy of the football club and it was felt by both parties that we should part company."
In other words McLeish thought they would be buying players & going for promotion & they didn't.
Why they ever appointed him in the first place I will never know, The bloke has left behind a trail of destruction whereever he has been.Rangers,Scotland,Birmingham,Villa. Forest must be bricking it now.
Must admit, thats true. Never did like him - surely a bit of leverage has been applied here in order to get Adkins in.
So true - although he didn't do too badly with Hibs or Scotland and he did actually get Birmingham promoted and win the League Cup with them. They were very negative the season they got releagated and again at Villa. Although i think Villa's problems were / are bigger than McLeish.
Mark Hughes seems to have a knack of getting jobs with minted owners - see Man City and QPR - so I'll back him to turn up at Forest at some point.
Wow, take Adkins out of the list of managers on Sky and shows you how little managerial talent is out there at the moment, how Curbs would not get a job ahead of the rest is beyond me.
Why is it that clubs change their manager just before playing us? Happened with Blackburn, Bolton, now Forest. Still, a collective sigh of releif for their fans I'd imagine. County are without a manager as well, maybe McLeish can go there for a couple of months.
Billy Davis in the frame just turned down the Blackpool job
That'll be the Billy Davies who was sacked by the previous Forest board, having fallen out with them, due to their lack of spending.
I'll give him a month :-)
The BBC reckon that Davies is the front runner. He should not have been sacked in the first place .. or did he resign over lack of funds to buy players?. If the latter, it seems there is no money for him to spend on loans this time around.

Either a "big name" set for a fall or Adkins.
JFH?
