Just hold your horses some of you and calm down. Momkey's building a brand new team here. It's going to take time to gel. Judge in October.

I think we know that Lucas and if it was left to the fans we would say fill yer boots Monk old lad. The thing is it isn't up to us. We have a trigger happy chairman with no patience. We know 10 new players are going to take a while to settle, but is Celinio prepared to do the same? His track record, I would say not. An embarrassing result against Huddersfield and I Really do fear for him.

I fear MC may wield his knee jerk axe too JT. If we see more players in before the deadline then that to me says that MC trusts Monkey man.
On a brighter note, is anyone going down to Rodley Beer and Music Festival. I'll be heading down there in about an hour, I'll buy everyone a pint if they say hello.

So wood scored in 2 matches but once again misses chances far too often, we don, t have a championship class striker he should have scored a damn site more goals and I would say drop him but who could we play instead.

thought the selection today was a little to attacking . The most important thing to start with is the defence . Until such times as that is sorted we cannot go forward. We still need 2 or 3 more in.

Maybe we can't send him back. Maybe we're stuck with him for a season.

Bamba, Pablo, Green, Murphy, Grimes, got to GO! and YES! Taylor can FORK OFF with them! We Struggle with Corners every year, get a 6ft 5in Center Half and don't play him. Still Love MC though and thank him for saving our Club. MOT FOREVER!

Ok so the result wasn't what was we wanted or expected😢Intl break and time to sort it out. Better squad and capable. Rome wasn't built in a day - I expect to see the points start clocking up in September. Positivity remains but if we don't utilise this break to get it sorted then I might have to give myself a slap and take a reality pill😂.

before doom and gloom starts. we always do bad at forest (apart from year I said if we win i'd propose and we won 1-4) and we are a new team and new manager it will not click over night, we will have bad days please give it time or we are as bad as the press make MC out to be MOT.

I think we're all agreed that on paper we are a better team than last season so my question is what are we doing wrong.

Monk said post match interview. We didn't perform well in the 1st and 3rd part of the pitch. No Sh! t. We didn't score enough and couldn't defend. To be fair the result was a bit flattering to Forest, but like Birmingham we got beat by sides who we shouldn't be losing too. Teams who will be mid table at best. 4 points from 15. Monk is building a side, we have I would say a better squad than last year, but Monk is on a one year contract. We can't have too much of a bedding in process, because even if Monk lasts the season and we finish mid table best 1) will he be offered a new contract and 2) Will he accept one. We need to use the break wise and string 3 or 4 results together. Hopefully starting with the dog botheres.

Quite simple Wex THE BASICS if you can't defend corners you are always going to struggle.

Following the match on txt com.
It sounds like it wasn't a deserved loss and we should have perhaps got a draw.
How many goals have we lost from crosses and corners? Why don't we play our new 6'5" super CB?

Agreed Ox. That's the strongest bench we've seen in awhile too. Made of steel lol. However, there is a query lurking in my mind. No it's not Ausman. I mean I know the answer is Texas but nevertheless I ask where is Dallas?

Team looks good.
Conspiracy theory re Dallas, could he be on the way out? Do we really need him?

Hi, does anyone think MC is saving up a couple of deals for deadline day to benefit from the good PR and the resultant buzz adding excitement for the fans.

I think we've done well. Pablo and Keemar the highlights. Happier with the defence now. Another CB and maybe a midfielder and I reckon were done.

I know we've got three keepers, but I'm still not sure any of them are really that great.
The defence looks better than last season so we should concede less.
The attacking options look better than last season so we should score more.
Someone once said football is a simple game so hopefully score more, concede less, then we should improve on last season (fingers crossed! )

I like most of them, still not totally sure about Grimes. I'm sure he'll come good otherwise Monkey magic man wouldn't have signed an ex colleague and England U21 international.
If I were to choose 1, I like a goal scorer so I'd pick Antonsson. Think he maybe the 20 goal a season man we've been looking for.
