Happy new year all you red dogs!

I really hope Forest appoint Nigel Clough, not for romantic reasons but purely on all the alternatives mentioned I think he would be the best choice, here's why in my humble opinion. He has always had next to no funds to spend. At Derby he was fire fighting after relegation from the Premier League and steadied the ship after having to sell the big wage earners. At the end when he was sacked they were still mid table. At Burton he has got them punching above their weight with next to no funds on 4,000 gates.
If we did appoint him I think the majority of all fans would have goodwill towards him, there would be an air of optimism around the club and most importantly the gates would stay high.
On a football note most importantly with more funds at his disposal (hopefully) than he has had before, then I think he would make us very hard to beat and in time make us competitive at the right end of the table.
Sorry to go on but I don't want any quick fixes I just want the right man for the job who knows what the Championship is about.
Come on Forest!

If his last name wasn't clough we wouldn’t even be looking or speaking about him. his stats are rubbish and his claim to fame as a manager is keeping burton up.is that something we are looking for. like I say if his name was smith and someone mentioned him with those stats it would be dismissed immediately.

His claim is getting Burton from non league into the league in the first place, then establishing them there then getting to the championship and then keeping them there.
That's some rubbish Sutton.

Sutton I disagree with you but that's your opinion. Clough all day long with all the candidates being mentioned. The last thing we need is a foreign manager! And no I'm not being foreingnist, lol.

Like the others I don't think Clough will be given enough time?
At the minute the manager's job here is a poison chalice I'm afraid to say.
Hopefully the right appointment will be made swiftly allowing him to use this window to get a player or 2 in and ship out the deadwood.
Fingers crossed it is the right man for the job?
