5 h. ago Football Daily | ‘He’s behind you!’ Is Postecoglou the real villain in Forest’s panto?

Sign up now! Sign up now! Sign up now? Sign up now!Arguably the most unpopular Australian to pitch up in Nottinghamshire since villainous hotelier Paul Robinson from Neighbours starred in a Mansfield panto 20 years ago, Ange Postecoglou’s reign at the City Ground could scarcely have got off to a more inauspicious start. While the boos and catcalls that actor Stefan Dennis was subjected to during Robin Hood and the Babes in the Wood were largely good-natured, such was the toxicity of the invective aimed at Postecoglou during Nottingham Forest’s Bigger Vase defeat by Midtjylland on Thursday, that it is difficult to imagine the man who has been in charge for just six matches will still be around to hear the festive cat-calls this Christmas. On more than one occasion the 60-year-old’s shouts of “He’s behind you!” went ignored by his hapless players, not least when the Danish side scored their first two goals from atrociously defended set-pieces. Far from the celebratory mood they’d hope...

23 h. ago Nottingham Forest horror show on home European return adds to Postecoglou pain

Ange Postecoglou finds himself in an awkward spot. As Midtjylland streamed forward on the counterattack to score their third goal of a sobering evening, the Nottingham Forest head coach rested both hands on his head. The scenes that followed were close to extraordinary, sections of the home support singing: “You’re getting sacked in the morning.” Then things got even more painful, the same supporters singing the name of his predecessor Nuno Espírito Santo and many turning towards Evangelos Marinakis, watching on his own private television in the directors’ box.Postecoglou insisted Forest had done their homework and understood what was always going to be a tricky assignment. Postecoglou acknowledged Midtjylland would be messy opponents but their direct “vertical football” proved Forest’s undoing, the Danish side twice scoring from set pieces before Valdemar Byskov Andreasen capped the scoring after Dario Osorio pinched possession from Callum Hudson-Odoi deep in the Danish side’s half...
