    Norwich look so ****, it's unbelievable that they're going to be level on points with us after tonight.

    I also think Mr Redknapp might be in trouble, I've always thought he is overrated!

    Anyone got the link to that thread on the Forest forums where the guy said they were champions already after about 5 games?

    Not sure why anyone thought Pearce was going to do a good job at Forest. His track record is poor and he comes across as an unintelligent man. Fist pumping full back yes, thinking manager no.

    Interesting Pearce is the sort of managers a lot of Watford fans would want to appoint - someone English, passionate and with lot's of experience of the championship

    Nothing. Nothing at all. There's absolutely no way anyone here would ever overreact after a few wins - or losses.

    Nothing ever seems to come of those things though.

    Bolton certainly getting the manager bouce!

    Maybe Wigan will be looking for a new one soon?

    It looked like Wolves switched over to something else for the second goal too. They're carp.

    Think we'll need to work on defending crosses/set pieces before the Derby game or they'll score at least once from it.

    Think they gave Rosler a decent crack at the whip. They have been underperforming for months now.

    Wonder if he regrets leaving Brentford. Typical that we'll have to play them when they'll probably have just gotten used to the new guy.

    Surprised it's as little as £60k to be honest, given that he cost around £20mil.

    This was Pearce's reaction after the ref and linesman gave a corner and the 4th official intervened and gave a penalty. I never thought that was allowed - but Pearce shows real class and dignity.

    "It took a while for the decision to be made but eventually the right one was and we accept that. We'll never be a football club that bemoans the match officials.
    "I saw Britt handball it and so did the fourth official behind me. I'm not quite sure how the referee and his linesman, who were closer, could not see that but fair play to the referee. He has admitted he couldn't see the incident.
    "We've got a lot of hard work to do before the Charlton game next week. The players need to show me they're up for the fight.
    "We're not going to use the penalty as a smokescreen or an excuse for why we haven't taken something from this game. We didn't play well enough. That is the bottom line."

    Yep fair play to Pearce for that. I don't think that changes his record/potential as a manager though.

    Last time they told him to buggar off he just went to the high court and got the ruling over-turned.
