buchan30 Posted May 7 Share Posted May 7 13 hours ago, virginton said: They're probably also appointing him based on a previous track record in management that led to him being appointed as... checks notes... Spain and Real Madrid manager. There's no guarantee when choosing a manager, but Lopetegui has a far, far higher ceiling of potential ability than Moyes. Just as Unai Emery was a coup for Aston Villa despite 'failing' in England previously. Possibly. I just remember him getting slated most weeks in the press. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ridiculous appeal. I know the idea of dignity and Nottingham Forest have been pretty alien since Marinakis took over but if they'd any dignity at all they should have accepted the original punishment without appeal and got on with it. Need another point or possibly even three against either Chelsea or Burnley now, though Tottenham (v Burnley), and West ham or Fulham (v Luton) can do the job for us without another point. EDIT - Of course we might be safe already but for VAR shenanigans. Edited May 7 by Skyline Drifter 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chelsea look to finally be improving and should win at the City ground whereas West Ham players have completely mailed it in on Moyes. Wouldn’t be surprised at all if Luton get a result at West Ham. Burnley will probably be relegated this weekend. As awful as Tottenham are playing just now, I can’t see Burnley having the quality to go an win there on Saturday. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As occasionally ropy as Forest can be, their home record is good. I don't think it's anywhere near a given that Chelsea will win there albeit I appreciate their current form is very good. A point will be enough to take Burnley out of the picture, as of course would Burnley not winning at Tottenham. Hopefully if they are down anyway the last week is a much easier task for Forest. I think West Ham will have a point to prove this weekend in their last home game but you never know. Wins for Luton, Chelsea and Burnley will make for an incredible last weekend. Just very frustrating that Forest were denied three penalties at Everton, lost a point to the last minute Liverpool nonsense and three when they had to play 80 minutes against Bournemouth with 10 men thanks to another awful refereeing decision that wasn't reviewable. Even leaving referees out of it they should have had something off Manchester City a week ago. Of course all clubs will have some sort of similar tale. Burnley would be closer if their keeper hadn't recently chcuked two in his own net. I seem to recall a farcical early season penalty against Luton for handball. Big weekend ahead anyway. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jacksgranda Posted May 7 Share Posted May 7 I thought Forest would have got 2 or maybe just 1 point reinstated. But I still don't think they will be relegated. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jives Miguel Posted May 9 Share Posted May 9 Does anyone have the tweet of someone saying to Alexi Lalas "you eat chicken from cans, you big ginger freak", or words of that ilk? A classic of the game. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AMMjag Posted May 9 Share Posted May 9 Well I know UEFA will be happy tonight. All this new 'FFP' eurowokery has been specifically designed to clip the wings of our clubs in Europe.

HibeeJibee Posted May 9 Share Posted May 9 Premier League boss wins anonymity in child sex abuse civil case - BBC News A Premier League boss has been granted a High Court anonymity order in a civil case against him for allegedly sexually abusing a 15-year-old girl. He is being sued for aggravated damages by a woman who says the offences took place two decades ago, and remains in position despite a police investigation over the alleged rape of a different girl aged 15. The judge said the order was necessary for the "administration of justice". A civil case against the boss was filed in January, and his lawyers have successfully argued to the court that an order be implemented to prevent his name from being released by the media. Master Stevens, who sits as a judge in the King's Bench Division of the High Court, said in court documents that she had considered human rights to private and family life, as well as freedom of expression, when making his decision. She concluded last month that the protection of the boss' identity was necessary to "secure the proper administration of justice", adding there was "no sufficient countervailing public interest" in his name being disclosed. Privacy rules in the UK apply to identifying suspects in the early stages of police investigation, however the media is usually allowed to report cases in court, including civil courts. In court documents, seen by the sports news publication the Athletic, the civil action details accusations against the Premier League boss of sexual abuse and claims he "committed trespass to the claimant's person (assault and battery) and intentionally inflicted injury". This is said to have caused psychological harm to his alleged victim. Earlier this year, the BBC asked the court for documents related to this case but the court did not respond to the journalist making the request or provide them with notice of the anonymity application, therefore the BBC were unable to make representations objecting to the order before the judge's decision. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
