Nuno facing the sack at Forest ?

I like him and Forest but would welcome this. Having a mental chairman always goes and makes things unstable at the club so there's a potential 6 points boost.

We specialise in losing to teams in shit circumstances, I'd have more confidence facing an in-form and stable Nottingham.

So annoyed as I predicted with my lot he’d win the sack race before a ball was kicked and didn’t twig it was 12/1 😭 Been coming since Mr Marinakis came on to the pitch (despite not having a controlling interest in the club after placing shares in a blind trust) to remonstrate with him then putting that bullshit statement out about Awomyi and the “Forest Family”

After what he said today , I would say his position now is untenable , especially with that hothead Marinakis

He had one bad season at a club renowned for having a hair trigger..the same club sacked Nuno before clocks went back.
Ange has an impeccable track record

Quite a character:

"
Nottingham Forest owner Evangelos Marinakis' controversies include a five-match stadium ban for spitting at officials, a £750,000 fine for a post attacking VAR, and being involved in a separate libel case concerning alleged match-fixing and drug trafficking in Greece. He was also seen arguing with manager

on the pitch after a 2025 match, which he and Forest downplayed as "fake news" and attributed to frustration over an injury.

Disciplinary Actions in England
  • Spitting at Officials:
    In October 2024, Marinakis received a five-match stadium ban for improper conduct after spitting on the floor in the direction of match officials following a loss to Fulham.

  • VAR Attack:
    In the same season, Nottingham Forest was fined £750,000 for a social media post made by Marinakis attacking the integrity of a match official (VAR Stuart Attwell).

  • Pitch Confrontation with Manager:
    In May 2025, Marinakis was seen on the pitch speaking animatedly to manager Nuno Espirito Santo. The club called the incident "fake news," stating it was a shared frustration about an injured player (

    ) continuing to play after an injury, not a confrontation.
Legal & Allegations in Greece
  • Libel Case:
    In January 2025, Marinakis was given permission to proceed with a £2.1 million libel claim in England against an individual regarding allegations of match-fixing and a drug trafficking case in Greece.

  • Match-Fixing Allegations:
    He has been accused of match-fixing and involvement in a high-profile drug trafficking case in Greece, which he denies.
Uefa & Ownership

  • Blind Trust: To comply with UEFA rules, which prevent individuals from controlling two clubs in the same competition, Marinakis placed his Olympiakos shares in a blind trust"

Total heed the baal
 
In all fairness I dont think it was ever going to last.

Marinakis is a complete imbecile and hothead with a tonne of money and Nuno is a hotheaded genius who says how he feels almost in the same way Mourinho did.

It was never going to last and I'm surprised they went this long if I'm honest.
