Nottingham Forest have banned Gary Neville for being Co-commentator for tomorrows game v Chelsea
This unprecedented

Neville said, Forest would not give me an accreditation or access to the stadium as a co-commentator

Think he commented on the Forest owners charge onto the park at the recent home game v Leicester

[SHODAN]

Lmao the Forest owner is a big child

Read up a bit about him last night after Neville posted about him getting banned. Seems a bit of an unsavoury character. Investigated in relation to the murder of a policeman. A separate court case where he was the accused was scrapped when pretty much all the witnesses conveniently died.

Does England have a fit and proper test?

Does England have a fit and proper test?Same vague one as Scotland sadly, if you've got the money you're in, and if you have 41 tax convictions you can buy the then defunct Glasgow rangers. Known as the fat & protestant person test at the time I think

I don’t know anything about the Forrest owner but his charge onto the park in the recent home game v Leicester he was heavily criticised by the media which was said afterwards had nothing to do with the result , performance but more a player’s safety who ended up in a induced coma needing surgery .

Neville managed Valencia for 16 games in which he only won 3 and failed to keep a clean sheet in any of them but is quite happy to criticise other managers/ chairmen’s in what they are doing wrong . Personally always thought Neville was a D*** and fair dues to the Forrest owner on his stance .

Neville's been pretty open and honest that he failed ah Valencia, he doesn't claim to be a top manager. He atleast have it a go though unlike some pundits.

He seems pretty fair to me, his job is to give give analysis on games whether that be positive or negative.

He's got pretty much the top job in football punditry because he's the best IMO.

[supermcginn]

That Forest owner is a complete head case, Sky should just tell Forest to get stuffed and show a different game instead. Neville is an excellent commentator and his overlap show is the best football show there is.

No but he acts as a pundit in his criticism of other managers like he has been a top manager even though he was a failure.

As to the Forrest chairman i think he’s right in Neville called him out and said the manager should quit the football club even though he had a valid reason at the time for going onto the field ..

I thought the same as Neville in fairness at the time but I was wrong . I don’t remember Neville admitting he was wrong . Understand where the chairman is coming from regarding Neville on this occasion.

I'm not sure the fact he didn't do well at Valencia means he can't have an opinion on players and managers. As a player he he played at the very highest level for over a decade, he clearly knows the game.

Put it this way, he's about a million times more qualified than anyone on here, yet we've got plenty posters who've never played the game to any level let alone elite, telling us how managers and players are getting things wrong.

I agree he’s a million times more qualified than anyone on here but like us all he can still be wrong on occasions which he is sometimes and on this occasion I think he’s totally wrong in condemning the chairman and telling the manager to quit .

If he had came out afterwards and said he got it wrong , maybe apologised I’d like to think the chairman would have taken a different approach but I haven’t seen anywhere that Neville has admitted he was wrong or apologised so I think the Forrest chairman is justified in his actions regarding Neville’s comments.

I don’t think Neville’s failed managerial stint should have any bearing on whether he can criticise others. You don’t have to be good at something to know when someone else isn’t doing it well.

Why should he admit he was wrong, if he doesn’t think he is? It’s absolutely pathetic behaviour from the Forest chairman.

I like Gary Neville, but I appreciate that he’s not everyone’s cup of tea. One thing he’s definitely proven over the years is his ability to take criticism, and the quite merciless piss-taking that he’s subjected to at times on the tv and his podcasts.

Neville’s entitled to his opinion on this, as Forest are entitled to ban him. I know which one I think is petty and vindictive.

Ok , that’s fair enough but in regards to some of Neville’s comments about the chairman in using words like
‘ scandalous’ and stating that the manager should resign over the chairman coming on the field and confronting him i think he’s wrong on .

It was suggested at the time it was due to the performance / result which triggered the chairman’s reactions but that NOW doesn’t appear to be the case in it was a players safety that was the issue. I think Neville jumped the gun on being overly critical when he didn’t know all the facts ! Totally in the Forrest Chairman’s camp on this .

[GreenNWhiteArmy]

The funniest thing about forest is their owner diluted his share in the club in preparation for champions league football (due to also owning Olympiakos who've qualified).

Since then they've completed **** the bed and sitting 7th

Nowt wrong in what Neville said imo. He seems a bit of a loose cannon and an all round dodgy character which i think Nev is starting to call out and that's what's causing the ban

On the Forest owner point, the fans don't know what he's going to do next, and I suspect he doesn't either some times. I think given his emotions at the time and his apparently genuine concern about the player his response was understandable if OTT.

I wouldn't have banned Neville but a wee bit of humility goes a long way sometimes.

He wouldn’t but it’s now being said that was the issue he had which I think is a valid one considering the events that followed regarding the player safety..

I was of the same opinion as Neville in I thought the chairman was overreacting about the performance and result. I was wrong as was Neville . Thankfully i didn’t publicly call the chairman out as ‘ scandalous or say the manager should quit though .

I watched the game at the time and thought that the player looked in pain and should have been taken off as they were basically like a man down anyway with him on .


I think i both have reacted badly to a degree though my opinion is it was Neville that lit the fire by jumping in without knowing all the facts .i did too in thinking it was purely on the performance and result which clearly wasn’t the case now . Anyhow .. Mon the celts😉

[ancient hibee]

Player safety? How would the Chairman know better than the medical staff and manager in regards to the players ability to continue playing?

How indeed except that the player was shortly going through a complicated operation and had to be put in an induced coma afterwards which suggests he should have been nowhere near the park after the initial injury.

[Donegal Hibby]

Going for a 5-0 Celtic win . 🤞

[cameronw-hfc]

The more i see the red card, compared to the palace one last week, its a poor call. I think if you're not sending the Palace keeper off at the edge of the box because he's going away from goal, not sure how you can even consider giving that. Either both are reds or neither. Out wide, covering defenders, it's a very, very hard chance if he gets through even without the keeper in the goals.

He might have got away with a slight obstruction or if he just brushed Hojland on the way by - the fact it was so cynical has probably upgraded it.

Commentators do always seem to ignore the extra ten yards that have to be factored in once a forward collects their ALWAYS over hit touch that takes it past a keeper.

Yeah I can defo see why it's given, it's more lack of consistency that bugs me. If you're sending him off there, gotta send of Henderson in the FA cup final too. Can't set a precedent by saying 'he was going away from goal' then send someone off for a similar situation but 20y further out.

If thats a clear red so is the Palace one. Either both are reds or neither, one is closer in and more of a chance and no red given, this one miles out, covering defenders and a red given. Reason Henderson wasn't sent off was as 'he was going away from goal'.

Pen and sending off I get, although sending off slightly debatable if you look at other similar ones. The goal though is awful, hasn't just cost villa tens of millions, it's probably cost the club 2/3 players close to/not far off legend status as they now need to sell big just to meet FFP. Crooked system, do well, get punished. Don't do well, get punished.

Pen and sending off I get, although sending off slightly debatable if you look at other similar ones. The goal though is awful, hasn't just cost villa tens of millions, it's probably cost the club 2/3 players close to/not far off legend status as they now need to sell big just to meet FFP. Crooked system, do well, get punished. Don't do well, get punished.Hopefully one of them is John Mcginn

When they go to VAR, in particular with offsides in Scotland, it's a lottery.

As there are so few cameras with the p*shy, watered down version we have, you cannot have full faith that the correct decision has been made.

If there are any doubts, bin VAR up here.

Still don’t want them up though.

Surprisingly enjoyable game. Next goal's a biggie. Livi get it and I think they go on and win it.

Out of interest, why don't you want them to come up? You might have said in an earlier post, but I can't be bothered going through the hundreds of pages. If they came up there would be no long journey up to Dingwall in the middle of winter.

Ross County pitch definitely didn’t look like that when we played them.

It was awful and Hibs struggled to play any decent football on it.

Livi’s issue if they go up will be the age of their team - some players will struggle with the intensity of the top league.

[HendoDelivered]

Another reason to not want Livi up… Their fans are doing that cringey thing a lot of the fans down south do when the opposition goalie is taking a goal kick🤢🤢🤢

[Spike Mandela]

For those on other threads bemoaning our bad luck at not getting guaranteed Eueopean league football console yourself that in November it was looking like we might be where Ross County fans are tonight.

All you see on the Falkirk one when the ball bounces on it is like a puff of black smoke . Honestly think having them in the top flight makes the league look amateurish.

Livi deserved that. Can’t believe how poor Ross County were. Keep putting yourself in that position and it’ll catch up with you eventually.

[Pagan Hibernia]

Can't say Livi don't deserve that. The better team over the two legs and they've jumped through hoops to get a crack at County while County have only had to play one play off.

County looked almost safe at the start of March, consistently and steadily picking up points but 0 wins and 7 defeats in their last 9 has done for them. Personally I'm sorry to see that there'll be no highland representation in the top flight.

[Pretty Boy]

Disgraceful scenes at the end there. I personally saw every Ross County player being viciously attacked - Keith Jackson©

[lugz]

Have the stewards and police just completely given up? Livi fans on the pitch, county fans on the pitch. Thankfully no bother or incidents.

[Jamesie]

Very disappointed to see Livi promoted. 2,653 in attendance at the first leg at Almondvale - a pathetic showing for a so-called Premier League club. I just know we’ll have to play them on 2 Jan or thereabouts in lieu of the Derby, too.

Falkirk and Livingston will definitely change the dynamic of the league. Surely one or both will end up down again.

Don't worry, their average attendance will rise when they give over 90% of their stadium to the OF when they play them.

From a Hibs perspective, although the 2 promoted teams play on Astro, I believe Livvi is getting replaced and Falkirk’s is seemingly top notch

For the fans, 2 local games, instead of Perth and Dingwall
