Forest want hecky

Can see him being interested if they allow him to be a manager rather than a coach, so he can have full say on identifying targets without those above getting involved.

 

Really, Where's he going to go if he hasn't got them in the play offs in 12 months? because he will be sacked at that club.

 

Not to mention the Parekh family. Our Neerav could buy Forest with this week's pocket money.

**** it, that's where I went wrong!

 

And I want a pony.



Not really, but still...

 

To my mind PH is playing it just right. He's not ruling Forest in and conversely not ruling them out.
If he does, it simply stimulates a journo's " feeding frenzy" and they won't leave him alone.
His statement says it all for me re- " there will not be any distractions in January" ( re- from what he's doing
at Barnsley) and " it's nothing to do with me until the Club say it's something to do with me." ( re- an approach
is made and he's given permission to speak to Forest.)
Either way, he's got a dilemma on his hands. Speak to Forest and eventually stay put and the new owners might start to question his commitment and loyalty. Stay put and fail to turn things round and risk getting fired if we are relegated at the end
of the Season. I hope he gets the necessary funds to strengthen the team and we stay up and he signs a new and
improved contract to keep him at Oakwell.

 

Nobody worried he’ll go?

 

Nah. No chance. If he was going to go, it would have been Sunderland*.

As terrible as Sunderland are, they are an absolutely huge club. Turn them around and you've got one of the best jobs in the country. Forest will never do more than have the odd flirt with the Premier League.

They're no different to about 20 or so interchangeable names which might be top division, might be Championship, might be League One, depending on which way the wind blows. The deedars, West Brom, Norwich, Derby, Forest, Swansea, Blackburn... that ilk. Sunderland are bigger - bigger, not currently better - than any of those clubs. It's a plum job. If he didn't go there, he ain't going to Forest.

*Assuming their interest was concrete. It seemed to be.

 

Mmmh, interesting. Maybe it is time for Hecky to move on. New Management -- maybe needs a new Manager. New broom sweeps clean etc.

 

He will get very good compo from having a few years paid off on a fat contract, rather than making do on our peanuts in comparison rolling contract. He'd walk easily into another job because being sacked from that crackpot club won't harm him. Not a surprise he's keeping his options open by not ruling himself out of the running.

 

Will he? A forest contract is hardly going to set him up for life, especially where he lives.

He's staying put anyway.
