His post match last night was very revealing imho. He knows that he is stuck with a high number of the current underperforming squad for next season. He knows that he needs to bring in a high number of better players next season. He knows that, in order to bring in more than the budget will allow, he has to move on a number of the contracted players.

It's good to be reminded of how optimistic so many of us were at the start of this season... Optimism that was severely deflated after the first game and totally wrecked by match nine. There was then a short uplift during the Redfearn/Thompson tenure rising back to previous heights after the victory at Rochdale, only to come back down to earth the very next game... a period of renewed optimism was completely wiped out by our March madness. We are going to finish 9th or 10th after a previous season finish of 12th. Excited for this poll next August...

I'm not sure that he has proved anything this season...

Gary Birtles joined Forest in 1982 - that’s 42 years ago! It was a different time and things in football have changed dramatically since then… Sadly your argument is outdated and no longer valid - time to get real methinks

“Money talks But it don't sing and dance and it don't walk”

Agreed - let’s get rid of the fans and bring in a new lot.. oh, that’s not what you meant is it?

He’s had it for a while but he needs to show improvement to stay

Norman McGahey Raglan Hogan Sutton Ward Willoughby Lundstram Gardner Hope Walker with Kitching, Norwood and Conlon coming off the bench. Having equalised in the 93rd minute, we lost to a 96th minute goal… Understrength? Possibly, but still should have had more than enough.

I don't rate him - too weak for this league

Release 'em all!

I've had a season ticket for 35 years and will be renewing but its fair to say that it is more in hope than expectation. I have no faith that Mellon will become the manager who leads us back to the EFL. There needs to be a lot of manoeuvering and a number of shrewd acquisitions to start with a squad that meets Mellon's "I know what good looks like" mantra. My fear is that the financial restrictions for next season will not allow Mellon to start with the players he wants and he has shown that he cannot sufficiently motivate the standard of footballer he will have to work with.

I have decide, barring a mathematical miracle, that my next game will be our first game of next season. Tamworth away, live on BT- should be a good turnout too
