Then you would have thought that the board and the fans would understand and back the players and Chis through a tough period.
Unfortunately for a lot of clubs that does not happen.
Forest fans frustrated because when they need to chase the game after going behind he will not change the formation of 2 banks of 4 and 1 up front or make attacking substitutions.
They think he is far too rigid.
Well I never.
If he leaves Forest I would like to see him manage a league 1 or 2 club that has potential and a good board and see what he can do as his experience would be very valuable to a lower league club.
For instance, Ryan Lowe is doing a decent job at Plymouth, but if he were to leave, Chris would be...
Isn't that why they go out on loan to hopefully improve rather than play reserve football, like Ben White, he must be decent to hold his place in the Derby side.
Or as he is in the shop window sell him to Derby or another club for a hefty profit.
