    Yes, a subtly brilliant touch

    And in black and white as well adds to the amusement.

    Fair to say I am revelling in watching their season capitulate into a complete embarrassment. From the moment they signed Lingard it was pretty obvious to me this was going to be a comedy show. 80k a week for that. My lord what has the world come to. They are going to have a very rough time ahead of them rebuilding this horror show what a shame NOT.

    I'm trying hard to take a balanced view on Florist's disastrous start to life in the top flight but there can't be too many Notts (and Derby) fans who aren't loving it at the moment? I say at the moment because Steve Cooper achieved miracles with them last season so he might yet get them sorted. Right, that was the balanced bit. Now IMHO the Greek owner is clearly the problem with his inability to let Cooper do his job. I think I know why he bought Forest in the first place but I can't understand why he hasn't been found out yet. Of course money talks so maybe it's as simple as that. Here's another balanced bit. Isn't it remarkable how their fans turn up rain or shine win or lose to watch them get stuffed? By all accounts they look an absolute shambles and yet they still attract an apparently very loyal following. Perhaps things will change if they hit Christmas with no improvement in sight.

    Considering they have by premiership standards had an easy run of games and still have 6 points there is an excellent chance they will have the worst ever premiership season on record. I am very much hoping that is the case. Cooper did an amazing job last season no doubt but he is no premiership manager. Find the new contract thing weird. Assume the old one didn't have a release clause with just 3 months payout in it and the new one does but dummied up as a new contract.

    Was strange indeed, considering after the foxes defeat they withdrew the contract for Cooper that had been on the table since the Summer. Story doing the rounds was the kebab man sounded out Tuchel & Pottichino before giving Coops a new contract.
    In fairness to Coops got success to quick last season

    I hate to be the bearer of such sad tidings but I'm afraid they only have 5 points.

    3 of them (West Ham) were very lucky.
