He’s lost every game so far though, so it’s obviously not going well, regardless.

Well he has he lost 3 and draw 1 in the league

And if you saw how they conceded the penalty, it was incredibly suicidal. Their lads second touch was a ridiculous foul in the box.

Elliott Anderson you mean?

As you'd fully expect, Forest look laughably suspect at the back now Ange has been in charge for a few games.

 No idea what Forest were thinking with that move.

It's got to be arguably the craziest manager move in Premier League history. Can anyone think of one as bizarre? Sure they are out there, I just can't think of them.  Well actually maybe replacing Kenny Dlaglish with Ray Harford.... I jest.

Ange had done as much as you could do to show that he was not suited to the premier league, managed to nearly get a squad that cost hundreds of millions relegated (average to get relegated in premier league over last 10 years is 35 points. Spurs finished with 38).

Sunderland sacking Peter Reid for Howard Wilkinson

Villa appointing Remi Garde

Alex Mcleish swapping Birmingham for Viila

Bolton appointing Sammy Lee as Sam Allardyce replacement

Fulham appointing Felix Magath

sacking Sam Allardyce for Steve Kean beats all of those

plenty of head coaches have had only Plan A and when it doesn't work then don't have B. Someone like Sven Goran Eriksson or Roy Hodgson. 

Ange has been there for 6 games FFS, Allow some time and patience when some on here don't have. Did Forest play 3 at the back yesterday? so isn't a plan B 

@roversfan99 did you ever allow new head coach time to bring in his ideas and methods over and given that Ange probably didn't have much time on the training ground to implement his own ways yet?

A few years ago Sam Allardyce left Palace at the end of the season having kept them up. They brought in Frank De Boer to replace him. He wanted to change systems away from what Allardyce did but tried it too quickly, and without the necessary players. It took the Palace hierarchy 5 games before they realised that it wasn't going to work and dispensed with his services.

Nuno to Ange is a similar shift; they have opposing philosophies. It's not working so I would not be surprised if Ange got the boot soon. Forest's next 4 league fixtures are Chelsea, Bournemouth (A), Man U, Leeds. Leeds is a 6 pointer. I think that he will be in real trouble if he loses that match.

Also, Leverkusen potted ten Hag after 3 games this year. I don't think that they have lost a league game since. Was that too early?

Sometimes managers don't work. As a Rovers fan you should be fully aware of this.
