Glasner to Forest

Whether you like it or not Forest are a bigger club than Palace.
Based on your last 2 points we are bigger than Man Utd, and we are clearly not.

Having a passionate fanbase is irrelevant to a club's size. Selhurst has a 25k capacity, Forest is almost 31k, and sells out every game. Not only that with our limited hospitality our revenue on match days is limited. Forest's match day revenue will far exceed ours (just like new grounds such as Spurs and Arsenal get more matchday revenue than Man U despite having smaller capacities).

However, i think it is fair to say Forest isn't a massive jump up on Palace, making Glasner's decision a little strange. However, i suspect no big 6 club will touch him and Forest has made him an offer he couldn't refuse.

It might just be hearsay but I read he'll be on £14m a year, making him the second highest paid manager in the league.

Unfortunately,they are flush with funds,and will do very well this coming season with a few worthwhile additions,one of two coming from Palace,no doubt, buying them success.
Have we actually made any signings yet ??

Please seek help or remove rose tinted specs.

Ancient history doesn't matter of course it does and again showing you have 0 clue what you are talking about.

I didn't talk down at anything I told it how it is Forest has won that cup multi times we won it once and the rep of that cup used to be far higher compared to what it is now & the Conf League is a Micky Mouse cup it's not no European (Champions league which again Forest won multi times)



What's the point of that list it makes 0 sense again wow please seek help or you are just a troll.

Its very simple Forest are a bigger club compared to Palace FACT.

Pedigree matters.

You talk out of your arse. If you can't see the pertinance it is you who is deluded.

If you are talking abstractly about a club's history then it becomes relevant. But what a club has now is what it has now. Two completely different discussions about different things.

Just because Bordeaux would have attracted a top manager when they were a top club, doesn't mean they would attract the same level of manager in the non-league now.

Should Wimbledon have attracted Kinnear in the Combined Counties division?

When you become the manager of a club you don't get the credit for their past glories, nor will you get to bask in much of their future given the precarious nature of football management. You get a little pocket of time with the club usually ranging between 3 and 24 months.

In the current pocket of time, Palace are in a European tournament off the back of some trophy wins. Forest are not.

Forest do indeed have a bigger history. They may well be more ambitious (if you'd like to argue that). Oliver Glasner is unlikely to be part of either of those things. In this pocket in time it really is a sideways move (or worse) which he took because the jobs he thought he'd be offered were whipped from under his feet. I doubt very much he feels that Forest are some incredible opportunity of his dreams.

EXACTLY! Thank you, PTJ! Don't know why it's so hard for some to grasp this. (Or they pretend not to).

I'll give you a black and white fact. Forest have only been in the Premier League for 5 seasons and were found guilty of financial irrgulations in overspending to gain promotion. So in other words you cheated and still only just scrapped through the play-offs.

They did, yes. I'm on the exact same page as you here. Not sure how you took mine as a defence of Forest unless you replied to the wrong person.

Points 1, 2, 3, and 5 are the most important, although I would still argue the other points do add to the full picture in tandem.

Of course Man Utd are a bigger prospect. Forest are certainly not Man Utd though.

Whilst I don't agree with you, you certainly argue a better case than grumpymort does.
 
If Ollie prefers the scatter gun transfer policy and bullying approach of Mary Knickers to our leader Parish then good luck to him, he’s going to need it, though I expect treble the money was more attractive
