Did you hear he’d gone Paul? Nope. I was convinced that he would be though. I think the board have completely lost the plot. I'll be making good on my £100 donation to DLT though. The donation is up to you but as soon as I saw your post last night I thought I bet Coates will keep him in charge just to spite you!

Sensible and logical and consistent from the owners’ position. If they thought he was right person after the international break then no evidence from league games since to change that view. Started well against Bristol City and let down by Allen. Solid if unspectacular but should have beaten Brentford and the better team until Butland’s mistake last night. In all 3 games we looked well set up from the start. Yes we have a weakness at full back but a new manager won’t fix that. He now has Badou, Etebo and Powell available, our 3 best players, so they have to give him a chance to get the benefit from them.

Personally I don’t think they will sack him , there’s zero chance of going down , this season will be one of ironing out all the problems , NJ can’t legislate for all the mistakes the players are making , Butland and Edwards playing like schoolboys , NJ will come good and deliver What are you basing this on? I put all the championship teams in a hat and let my dog draw three out for relegation, stoke weren’t one of them 😎

Are all you people criticising on here saying you can't see in the last two home matches that you haven't seen the improvement because Jones's coaching is starting to take effect? Bring a new man in before Tuesday who changes things we lose a match we should win. Don't underestimate the certain players'part in this shambles. No way do you want a new manager losing a 6 pointer in his first game. We are stuck on the bottom but now the league has settled we are not that far off if we go on a good run under Jones or someone else. Teams above us have stopped picking up points. Did you realise for example that Derby have won 1 match away at Middlesborough on the fr irst day of the season? We are not the only ones in trouble. There have been improvements but that isnt difficult when we’ve been so awful. We have some decent players a new manager could get even more out of them.

Crikey, this is turning out to be one almighty horror show.
Tuesdays game is a battle of the two teams that have forgotten how to win... Can't wait.

I agree but the players were genuinely deflated by Butland their captain's mistake. It was palpable the disbelief that yet again one of their alleged best players had messed up. But that’s the type of player Jones and Rowett have bought in,mentally weak No I think the most deflated were Etebo and Badou who watched unbelievingly as all their effort and running was thrown away by a goalkeeper who still has illusions of getting a move to the Premiership and regaining his England place. They still tried to carry the game to Forest alone to watch two minutes into the second half as international players contrived to give them a second goal. At the third Etebo was so cross with the team yet continued to drive forward at every chance. He has exemplary mental stenth as he had every right to say if that's how the rest of you want to play I give up. Him and McLean (although I am not defending Mclean's defending) never gave up.

I think Jones is now acting as a caretaker manager. That's an interesting thought. Respect for him if he's offered to stay on while they get his replacement sorted.

This is getting farcical now, he should have been shown the door after the Brum game, to let this go on any longer borders on gross negligence, most clubs would have acted long ago.

The pressing and aggression and running last night until Jack's blunder was what I was watching. It's the first time I've seen us harry a team to go back to their gk from an attacking position in ages. What were you watching? Just the result? Then attacking us down the left and doubling up on McClean because they know it’s a weakness... which the manager made of his accord. Bringing on another CB when Badou went off and we were already down rather than try and go for it. Ince offering nothing again but he was yet again selected. Playing with one striker at home. How big their attackers were and yet our two CBs are the worst with their heads and Batth is sat on the bench. I could go on. You’re talking about the most expensively assembled squad in the championship and a manager that bought in 11 players and you’re praising them for not being completely shambolic for part of a game. How do you explain us being worse since Jones arrived and choosing 11 players who weren’t any better than what we had? It’s baffling. Yes our lack of full back options is astounding I would agree I can't believe that after what he said his first two choices after Justin were 30+ non athletic but he wasn't going to say that. As for the substitution for the injured Badou would you have preferred our only defensive midfield option Cousins? Yes I know he was Jones signing but obviously not the player he thought he was getting.

I think Jones is now acting as a caretaker manager. Wouldn't that mean that he could actually win on Tuesday but still then be conceivably replaced though?

Unbelievable, just unbelievable ! What the hell are the Board playing at ? League One here we come ! Maybe they're peed off with chucking millions into a deepening chasm, so they'll lock away the cheque book and just rename the club.."Nathans No Hopers"..or summat like that.
