‘We’re a joke’ – Nottingham Forest fans react to sacking of O’Neill & Lamouchi appointment
Nottingham Forest have the departure of Martin O’Neill after just five months in charge at the City Ground.
According to , O’Neill is thought to have been ousted after a number of key players lost faith in him. The club hierarchy then decided that O’Neill could not be relied upon to deliver promotion to the Premier League.
O’Neill is held in high regard by Forest fans due to his exploits for the club as a player. However, his time in the hot seat was distinctly average.
Mere minutes after breaking the news of O’Neill’s exit, the Midlands outfit the appointment of his successor, Sabri Lamouchi. Forest also added that Lamouchi would be joined by six new members of staff who will support the first team.
Lamouchi’s previous posts include El Jaish SC, the Ivory Coast national side and Ligue 1 outfit Rennes. He particularly impressed with Rennes, leading them into the Europa League. The Frenchman also enjoyed a distinguished playing career, representing such European giants as Monaco, Inter Milan and Marseille.
Following this whirlwind of news, many Forest fans took to Twitter to give their views on the dramatic proceedings.
What a joke we are. I'm pleased he has gone, club legend but wasn't the right man for the job. Kranaka should never of gone in the first place. However, this is one of the reasons why we don't succeed, because we don't hold on to managers.

My personal opinion. Very disappointed. How can any club gain momentum by sacking managers every 5/6 months. Good luck wherever you go next Martin.

This club will never move forward, whilst the hierarchy bows down to player power!

Welcome, Sabri to the hot seat at ?, I’ll be honest and admit I know little about him, but wish him all the best and hope he will be the one to lead us back into the PL ?
