[Guernsey Exile]

Dead Man Walking!

[The_Rooky]

I bet the Forest fans are delighted!!! I think he might even challenge Berg's short stay at Blackburn.

[besty]

OMG!!

This is the funniest thing ever haha

[MachoMadness]

Fell about laughing when I heard this. I can maybe understand sacking SO'D if you've got a Keane or a Di Matteo lined up - it's still reprehensible how they treated him, but understandable - but to sack him for Alex f**king McLeish!? Unbelievable stupidity from people who obviously have more money than sense.

[RTID75]

Dear, oh dear, oh dear.

All bets must be off on this one. The odds must be pathetic.

[sirfoxinthebox]

dont no why owners think big names get you promoted so if they dont go up this season will he get that marching orders ?

[streatham dave]

LOL  Clueless. I have no idea if SOD is the answer at Forest but If McLeish is the answer God help them.

[Akinfenwa]

Ouch.

[sirfoxinthebox]

i bet his wages are treble sods aswel

Keane? He's a piss poor manager. RDM fair enough, but Roy Keane's record must be as bad as McLeish

At least he's a fairly big name though. Still young with plenty of potential to improve, too.

[DonnyBazR0ver]

Priceless ! And these are from the 'Welcome Alex McLeish' thread!!

Isn't McLeish just Cotterill in a ginger wig?

The tree on my forest shirt has wilted and I doubt the leaves will grow back for some time

I honestly don't think they could have made a worse decision.
We'll have another manager by the end of the season. Forest fans will not accept his hoofballing shit

I wasnt a fan of SOD, but I would carry him from wherever he lives to the City Ground on my back rather than have this

sacked in the morning, your getting sacked in the morning,

I'll wish him Good Luck but in no way will I ever say he's WELCOME. Because he's not.

[DonnyOsmond]

That's McClaren.

[tommy toes]

All I can say is they must be strak staring bonkers.
They sack a manager who has made signings to suit his style and replace him with a long ball dinosaur.
Madness, I hope they plummet like a stone.

[stuey]

That's McClaren.

I think he's making reference to McClaren's stint as Forest manager

[Viking Don]

He did OK with Scotland. In Scotland. They were the best side in er Scotland.

Brilliant Scab appointment, they deserve each other, watch em fall.

Keane has managed 2 Champinship clubs getting one promoted when relegation had threatened them as he took over and the other was Ipswich where he admittedly struggled (who doesn't), nowhere near as rocky record as McCleish

[GazLaz]

I think he is a food manager in that league. Plenty of experience, he's fallen short in the Prem but they're not in the Prem.

What's him being a food manager got to do with anything. LOL

I suppose they could put him in charge of the catering. Better than letting him anywhere near the team.

That's the problem with foreign owners. They want it all handed on a plate.
