Forever doubted by those who don't get it, forever cherished by those who do. Football clubs run on connections and nobody gets Nottingham Forest more than Ryan Yates. He cares as much as you do, and that's not to be sniffed at
Oliver Glasner says in all of the hundreds of matches he’s played and managed, he’s never heard a more inspiring address than the one captain Ryan Yates gave to the @NFFC players just before they went out today.

Every club needs a player and dressing-room presence like Ryan Yates. #NFFC

Absolute Forest legend. No serious #NFFC fan should ever write him off. Played a crucial role today. Delap will rightly take the plaudits today but this guy is the beating heart of our club. ❤️

I would like to ask Khawaja to explain how the whole team got to the point of wanting to cheat without somebody or some player saying this is not right and refusing to be a part of it.

Them Delap goals reminded me of a certain @StanCollymore Stan Collymore 👏 👏 belters. Yates made a huge difference today, for all his limitations you can never question his desire! Seems Glasner’s message got an extra 10% out the players today in particular Murillo #nffc

Oliver Glasner has truly arrived at the City Ground. That is a statement win and performance. Forest players responded fully to Glasner’s challenge in the week. Oliver wanted more. And they delivered. Club so much stronger when fully united from dressing-room to dug-out, stands & boardroom #NFFC #NFOMCI

“It was a complete surprise. I accept it, but the only thing that was not proper was how they did it.
“That was not fair. Sending an email… two minutes before midnight, when we had organised everything for pre-season.
“But, OK — I am not the kind of person who carries the past.”
Vitor Pereira was released by Nottingham Forest over email at 11:58pm on June 30.
He talks to @NickMiller79 about his surprise, Morgan Gibbs-White, Elliot Anderson and why he is eager to prove he is not just "a fireman" when it comes to Premier League management.

For all the problems we have scoring goals and the money spent on Delap, I’m stunned we were never in for Kostoulas! Surely the owner knew there was a good player there and could have sent him our way. When have we ever benefited from this Multi club model? #nffc
Anyone with half a brain and any semblance of football knowledge could tell you that midfield was too weak and lacked quality. I love Yatesy, but going back to him now after 4/5 seasons sums it up! Madness and delusional to think otherwise that not replacing EA would work #nffc
It’s alright Glasner coming out now saying and hinting that he made ‘compromises’ which he shouldn’t have done on players, but he literally said he turned down more players from Marinakis in summer, only got himself to blame for this shit show! #nffc

Glasner taken us back 4 seasons.Squad broken & dysfunctional. Next games vs city and chelsea, odds on we lose both and international break in 7 points, 1 point in 7, no goals at home. Untenable. #NFFC

If Glasner was smart he'd take a closer look at the system Vitor played, which had us scoring for fun and a joy to watch. Also got the absolute best out of MGW who is completely under utilised in this current system. Time to change things up and earn that 13m salary OG #NFFC

Updated Glasner watch:
👀 1 win in his last 16 PL matches (lost 9).
🧐 1 win from 10 at Forest in all comps (10% win rate, which is the 2nd worst in club history).
😬 5 wins in his last 35 domestic matches (lost 20), dating back to last December.
🥴 Failure to score in 14 of those 35 (40%).
🤡 Only 6 clean sheets in those 35 (17%).
Forest have fallen behind in 6 of Glasner's matches. The team has scored ZERO goals when in a losing position.
Elite xG though... 😅 #nffc

At the Ipswich game I was told by many #NFFC fans that Schlager was fantastic. For me he was a back up to the midfielder we never signed. Our league position is a product of poor recruiting, high ego, and a load of fans who are more interested in their podcasts. We're shite.
George Thurlby retweeted
The elite manager now has 9 wins in 41 league games & 1 win in his last 16
Lost his last FA cup game to Macclesfield
Forget your XG, this guy is a fraud
Refuses to change formation. Paid £50million for a striker who has only scored more than 3 goals in a season twice #nffc
