Freedman appointed hours later. Bit of an odd one that.

What other clubs have contingency plans lined up ?

Seems the full interview process doesn't take long at all. KM was right.

Good job Scotland didn't vote Yes, they would have to wait for the work permit.

Dougie Freedman?
What must their fans be thinking now? Actually, not that different from what we were thinking a couple of weeks ago.
Guy Luzon, wtf?

Eddie Firmani

Should've gone for Paul Jewell.

Puts it into perspective

Wonder whether the Forest Life forum has imploded yet ?

They've rushed in and appointed a crap manager. Forest fans are probably as pissed off as we were.

Freedman also did not get the job simply because he is already on the Forest owners payroll.

Yep, makes it even more of a mystery.

Dougie basically put in the foundations for Palace to get promoted. Holloway tried his best to get them to fall out of the playoffs but ultimately failed.

I think Dougie will do well at Forest. The negativity is a bit misplaced imo

Well it would do if Forest suggested they had 20 applicants in that hour and interviewed a few before appointing Freedman.

Not like you to miss the point, Col...

Wasn't the general consensus that Lennie was the "brains" behind Dougie at Palace?

Being a Basketcase Club is not relative.
Just because Forest are a Basketcase Club, that doesn't exclude us from being one too.

They should have chosen Guy Luzon, possibly the next Sarah Ferguson.

Shouldn't he just "accept" that that is the way the owner runs the club

Nice to see someone with a bit of pride about them and not be prepared to be walked over by the owner.
