"The 60-year-old former Tottenham and Celtic boss was serenaded with chants of 'you're getting sacked in the morning' at St James' Park as he was at the City Ground midweek when Forest lost their first home European match in 29 years. Fans on social media have even pondered whether Postecoglou could claim an unwanted slice of history by breaking Les Reed's record for the shortest managerial stint in Premier League history - Reed last just 40 days as Charlton boss in 2006."
"I get that it's part of the fanfare of the Premier League that it needs one manager to be in the spotlight, But what I have seen and felt in this period is that we are heading in the direction I want us to. The results will come. In the meantime it is a struggle and a fight and there is nothing wrong with that."
Ange Postecoglou has failed to secure a win in seven matches since taking charge of Nottingham Forest, including a 2-0 defeat at Newcastle. Supporter unrest and hostile chants have intensified, with fans and media speculating about a potential early dismissal and comparisons to the shortest Premier League managerial stints. Postecoglou expects to meet club owner Evangelos Marinakis and senior officials during the upcoming international break. The manager insists the team is moving in the desired direction, acknowledges the ongoing struggle, and maintains belief that results will improve despite mounting external pressure.
