Pity you weren't so 'vocal' when people were slagging Pearce off.
I've never said anything nasty about Pearce other than lose faith that he would be able to keep us in the division. The vitriol aimed at Freedman before he's even stepped on the pitch is frightening. Especially when it's the same people who would lash out at anything remotely negative posted on Pearce's ability as a football manager.

Bullshit.

The people who supported Pearce are the people who will be supporting Freedman when the inevitable happens and you and the others are slagging him off.

Our best formation will be 4-3-3. Pearce never used it. Tempted to try Mancienne at LB he is good enough to play there. was strange how Pearce said we needed a player with arrogance on the pitch yet we had Abdoun sat at home.

De Vries
Lichaj Hobbs Wilson Mancienne
Lansbury Vaughan Osborn
Antonio Assombalonga Abdoun

But why become part of it now?
Oh, I have seen the light.

All these people have been showing me how to do it, especially these last few months, it would be wrong not to repay that kindness and perseverance on their part by not adopting their stance. 6 months is more than long enough for a manager to get us promoted. It's the way forward.

I am fully on board now, in fact, I believe that if we play it right we can do a 'new manager bounce' all the way to the Premiership.

Im with you Erik. Im also going with the stance that any wins in the first ten games will be pure luck.

The fact that Forest scored with a beautiful team effort was pure luck because the other team looked at the Sun the wrong way during the match.

What? There's a difference between criticism after watching us tumble alarmingly down the table with no hope in sight and being venomously nasty before he's been given a chance.

I hope you true to you word, but if Freedman has the same set of results as Stuart I doubt you would.

I'll support the manager until he is not the manager.

That is my role in all this.

So when John McGovern was asked last Thursday night 'Will Stuart be given the rest of this season to prove himself' and he said 'Yes, I hope so', was he lying? Freedman must have been all but appointed by then.
Exactly what does Freedman have to offer that Psycho did not? What does he bring to the table?
 
Absolutely guarantee that the Pearce-in brigade will be on Freedman from the beginning if he doesn't get off to a flyer.

Support the club not the manager.

What? I thought we'd do a job swap, you be the positive guy and i'll just post negative things constantly?

Was that Season Ticket Holders Consultation Evening called off because of the millimeter of snow that had melted hours earlier or because those in charge knew Psycho was walking away this weekend? Did the players know he was going? Is that why they were so shite?

Freedman really has grasped the poisoned chalice, supported and welcomed by those fans who couldn't wait to stab Pearce between the shoulder blades, but wiil have to go along way before he ensures he will not be forgiven or forgot that by accepting the post before Fawaz the Slayer acted, was compliant in the disgraceful treatment of our club legend and hero.
