Surely he's been sacked for something unrelated to footballing matters? | |

Nottm Forest's Fawaz Al Hasawi: "[O'Driscoll] can count himself unlucky to have lost his job with the team one point away from the top six!!! | | | |

Not according to their chairman. He's got someone lined up I'm sure. I wonder if Blackburn are regretting berg! Going down at this rate | | | |

Roy Keane there today apparently.
They'd only be happy if Brian Clough had regenerated. | |

Unfair dismissal case on their hands? Probably difficult to prove though in this situation.. | |

good, they got their wish to get rid of Kean, been much better with him gone.
Keane to Forrest, good luck to 'em if true, wouldn't wish him on the budgies even (okay maybe a bit)  | |

I really liked SOD and his understated approach.
That said, you have the January window coming up and I suppose if you own the club, you need total confidence that your manager is going to sign decent players who can get the team up and be an asset in Skyland. That might have been a factor.
RDM spotted in the Trent Bridge branch of Tescos apparently. Please God/Allah it's not Keano.

It's all well and good saying that but why appoint O'Driscoll in the first place then? He was always going to have a bit less managerial pull in the transfer market than other 'big name' managers. Keane's been out of work for a while - if he's their man now then he should have been at the start of the season. To sack OD in the position they're in and after a resounding win against one of their promotion rivals is a disgrace. | |

They appointed him because they took over in June/July and had to appoint someone to take over from Cotterill. He had been assistant to SC at the City Ground and the players still there in the close season recommended him.
Sacking somebody after a win/loss is irrelevant. If they'd done it last week after the spineless 2-0 defeat to Watford, maybe it wouldn't have caused as much of a fuss because, let's face it, fans are a fickle bunch. Just witness the reaction on here after last Friday's result.
However, from what I can see. and from my own perspective, most tricky trees are disappointed he's gone and shared his long-term vision. You reds. | |

What's the Forest-thing then?

Tazzington right again.
FOReST have had 5 managers in 18 months, albeit one on a temporary basis: Davies, McLaren, Kelly, Cotterill and Disco. Mr New Guy will be the sixth. | |

Ah, are Forest the sacksville club now? Fickle indeed. This wouldn't have happened when the Trent End was a proper terrace.
It's Larry Lloyd I feel sorry for. | |
