@JoelJackson89 Not exactly a great example, Forest were in a relegation scrap until well in to May as a result of changing managers like their underpants.
@BROWEA How is it not an excuse? Spend too much trying to be successful and you’ll get a fine, or not be allowed to trade players. It’s not PR it’s a statement of truth.
@CRG196754@DoylemMedia Don’t know them well enough to disagree. Two weeks ago Ross Wilson was getting a lot of love from the Eddie Out brigade. The truth is that no one knows nowt.
@DoylemMedia Ah yes the famously frugal Manchester United. Same side that beat us to three players last summer, I guarantee they weren’t paying them less than our offer.
@mikepitt84@NUFCPicture@Pooliemags1Ttv It’s amusing how the Howe out lot have created this narrative among themselves that Nickson is solely responsible for all the better signings and EH is responsible for all the flops. It’s the recruitment teams job to do player ID, it’s Eddie’s job to agree to every signing.
@NUFCLC@r__89_ You keep mentioning 80 goals. Let’s throw some context in here, it’s 80 goals in a ~60 game season. More games than we’ve EVER played, because we performed historically better than ever across 4 comps. We conceded 7 fewer PL goals last season than in 23/24 when we finished 7th.
@consettphil@DomW964 It was a difficult season, but a season in which we finished in the semis and last 8 of cups and further than ever in CL isn’t indicative of a team not playing for the manager. It’s indicative of a squad not ready to battle on 4 fronts.
@ISimpson73@BROWEA Bigger club, more prestige, probably more money and a Spanish speaking coach. Those are the reasons, it’s not the coach that managed to persuade Kieron Trippier and Bruno to join a team nailed on for relegation.
@ISimpson73@BROWEA Load of old bollocks, you’ve no idea whether Eddie flew out and cooked dinner for his extended family. The words of encouragement from Iraola could have come via carrier pigeon for all you know. It’s total supposition.
@ToonTakeover_ That was my take, but as soon as it became apparent LIV wasn’t going to make any money they dropped it, fucking up a lot of careers in the process no doubt. Pretty ruthless for an apparent sportswashing operation.
