Odds slashed from 5/1 to 7/2.
Watch this space.
I think we're fucked.

If Spurs were smart they would employ Dyche until the end of the season. He might not take it if he has strong feelings about Forest having started out with them and just managed them. Money could well talk though. They should at least contact him as that would be the sensible thing to do. Hopefully they install Heitinga and arrogantly turn their nose up at Dyche..
If the fat Greek has any sense (insert your own jokes), Dyche’s pay-off will mean he can’t join another club until the end of the season without incurring a financial penalty (ie he won’t get all of his Forest wages, which they’re probably still committed to paying him).
Nothing says 3rd party interference more than that. And we should know..

I don't think sticking someone on gardening leave for three months could be construed as 'third party interference', but I could be wrong.

Can only hope that Wolves and Burnley continue to take points from those around us.

Dyche gone is bad news, he was doing a terrible job.
Not really. Their form was pretty similar to ours.
They had 30+ attempts last night, and 99/100 times win that game.
They'd been incredibly lucky and playing awful cuntball with barely any goal threat. Anyone coming in will surely be better.

So what, what's that got to do with anything??

Lets hope that Alvarez can do a job on Forest at Fenerbahce next week
Surely we want Forest to thrash Fene, don’t we? We want them to play as many games in Europe as possible. We want them knackered and on their knees by March.
Definitely, but a few serious injuries wouldn't go amiss

We need him to have a stinker but dish out a few kicks.
They have to stay in it, and spurs. Knocked out in semis, its a killer blow (we know)

At this rate, Forest are going to have more managers on their payroll than Chelsea. And those fuckers are probably still paying Tommy Docherty.

I had high hopes we would stay up due to ourn10 points in five matches form but now much more confident of staying up after Forest getting a draw and their manager getting sacked and Spurs with their injured player plus both are still in European competions

Just putting it out there for fun, but maybe there should be a transfer window for managers as well. Summer and January, or you're stuck with them.

Agreed.
Feel so much more confident now that both Spurs and Forest have suddenly ditched their managers at the same time. Pair of bottlers.

Dyche isn't easy on the eye, but he knows how to keep teams up. He worked miracles keeping Everton up previously.

We’ve got to get the most points ( obvs) but are in a much better place seemingly in team spirit and performances. If we can just keep tge ball out of our own net.

Sacked with a 47% win record. They should be careful what they wish for.

I think Spurs and Forest sacking their managers will help us. This instability will not help them.
Our revival is scaring the shit out of those above us.
Absolutely

Panic moves. We are coming.
This is great news for us. There is a 50% chance that Spurs and Forest will get the managerial appointment wrong, so hopefully one of them will slip into the abyss.

Nottingham Forest have opened talks with former Wolves boss Vitor Pereira after Sean Dyche was sacked following just 114 days in charge.
Huge roll of the dyche
