Pearce is a calamity.
Saw an interview with him last week where he thanked the fans for sticking with him - not from what I've heard they're not.
Surely made even worse by the great job McLaren is doing at Derby as well.
I always liked Billy Davies, arsey as **** but seemed a good manager.
Stuart Pearce is a rotten manager. It's amazing how far pulling stupid faces after scoring a penalty for England can get you. He's very much like an English version of Alex McLeish. He does well initially with man management and getting much more out of another manager's squad of players, but as for being tactically astute and buying his own players, well.....
Always be a legend to us Forest fans but simply not up to the task. Club website states that Fawaz has offered him alternative employment at the club which is a reasonable compromise. Season's a write off 13 points off the play offs and 7 above the relegation zone. First target must be to ensure safety of course then go from there. Can't think of an obvious target but I hope they give the job on a merit basis, to an up and coming young hungry manager perhaps, someone in the Sean Dyche mould.

Alex McLeish got Birmingham promoted, then 9th and won a major trophy. He achieved something at least.
Pearce is a repeat failure loved because of his reputation as a player. Hideous manager.
Doesn't exactly get the juices flowing, but open minded and will hopefully have full backing from the fans
I'll always have time for Dougie despite the way he left Palace, but this is an odd one when you consider his struggles at Bolton. I thought he would rebuild his managerial career at a lower league club so he's done well to bag the Forest role. Best of luck to him.

It does seem a little odd but it might prove to be a good choice in the end. His time at Bolton was tricky because the position the club was in with the money. If you look at them now little has changed.
I think he may do well but you have a lot of players that need to pull their socks up. The squad is pretty good they really should be doing better.

Well Bolton were 23rd and 4 points adrift of safety with 1 win all season when Dougie was sacked. There's been a massive improvement under Lennon despite finances so that's no excuse. If Forest fans want attacking football then I'm not sure Freedman's the man. His tactics at Bolton were very negative. It'll be interesting to see what happens.
It was no coincidence Pearce had a good start and his solitary win of late was against Derby. He can rattle a sabre and send a team into battle but ultimately he had the tactical nous of an ostrich. Passion, good will and a proud playing career doesn't necessary equate success in the manager's seat, sadly. When will chairmen learn?

He inherited the team that Nigel Clough made.
Well he hasn't been sacked yet. If he is sacked, then it will probably be Warnock or Steve Bruce if Hull have sacked him
Or maybe Roy Keane. My dad Roy was good at Sunderland. I think either Roy Keane or Neil Warnock.
Tim Sherwood, Brian MCDermott , etc

I mean my dad says Roy Keane
A shambles our club has become. I'm grateful that Fawaz has ploughed his money into us, but he really doesn't do stability does he...
Brighton away Saturday 7th
Wigan home Wednesday 11th
And
Blackpool away sat 14th
But 3 disasters and relegation battle commences.
Time for The team to all stick together and get the results we need.
bLackpool away today should be 3/3 for Freedman.
