Potter is goneburger at West Ham and Nuno in. Sounds like the problems at that club are deeper than just the manager and it will be interesting to see if Nuno can Nuno them
Nuno's quite pragmatic. He's obviously just not that exciting, because why else would be get chopped from NF?
he is not greek

If that's the only criteria they deserve to get relegated

Will Ange be replaced by Sean Dyche? What a laughing stock Forest are
It's all very strange - remove the manager who took you to 7th and replace him with the manager who finished 17th and then find yourself in 17th.

England are playing Latvia in Riga. If they win, they'll qualify for the 2026 FIFA World Cup.
That's one of the least interesting groups - England could lose this game and still qualify. Much more in the balance for Germany, France and Italy (with Norway almost definitely topping the group ahead of Italy)
Sweden is bottom of their group - despite having 3 forwards who just cost EPL clubs 235 million quid a couple of months ago (Isak, Gyokeres, Elanga)

Kosovo might make the playoffs ahead of Sweden. And it's not a universally recognised independent nation.
The Farore Islands might make the play offs and they're not an independent nation as well.
And Scotland's not complete out of it either.
-
The Faroe Islands have a very tricky road to the play-offs unfortunately - have to win in Croatia and hope Gibraltar can hold Czechia to a draw. The Faroes population is just over 50,000 so it is ridiculous that they do so well. Apparently their potential playing pool (men of the right age) is around 7,500.
And Cape Verde (pop approx 500K) is the second smallest country by population to qualify for the world cup with only Iceland being smaller.

Ange officially gone. I think this might be remembered as the worst coaching decision ever when you think they were coming off European qualification and the coach was sacked mid season.
Shame for Ange, he seemed like a decent guy but taking this job was a terrible decision from the start and he should have had the sense to see that. Ego got him in trouble I think.

Ego got the owner and Ange in trouble. Just an incredibly poor decision

Financially it was a fantastic decision - hardly won a game in 2025 but he's had a Europa League bonus, a Spurs payout and now a Forest payout. Now he should take the Rangers job to get a payout for his Christmas shopping.
Financially sound for him. He will get a job somewhere else, as you say he is still remembered fondly in Scotland. Meanwhile we will see if Nottingham Forest can survive the relegation battle

Lol after already managing Celtic? It's almost an illegal act in itself if that happened. Looks like it will be an Aussie taking the Rangers gig funnily enough.
Stupid for Ange to take the gig in the first place , and now he probably won't get a gig in a top 5 league again.

Well we went top for a few minutes and our away fans started singing stop the season we won the premier league. lol
Can understand late penalty but not often given so far away from ball, just hope refs continue to be consistent in that application.
Still take any points from going to Palace and we often bring a lot of energy to any game, so a good watch
