There are a few exceptions, and I've seen it happen, but not very often, that managers are having players foisted upon them.
Simon JordanHOST
38:56
We know that Marinakis did it at the beginning of his tenure in the Premier League with Forrest.
Simon JordanHOST
39:00
But the bottom line is, is managers have a significant degree of control.
Simon JordanHOST
39:04
and have a significant degree of input into very big financial decisions.
Trevor GearHOST
5:15
So they've got some tough games coming up.
Trevor GearHOST
5:17
And we all know what Mr. Marinakis, his record on firing managers.
Trevor GearHOST
5:22
I can't believe he would fire Glasner this side of Christmas, but like any other managers as well.
Trevor GearHOST
5:31
If you just get a run of bad results and you find yourself in the bottom three or four, then your job is going to be at risk.
Andy LyonsPANELIST

It was a game involving Arsenal, whose players had had to be quarantined because they'd played the Europa League game against Olympiacos, where people had tested positive, including Arsenal.
Andy LyonsPANELIST
27:50
Marinakis the Olympiakos owner is also the owner of Forest and the Premier League and Championship were suspended from early March 2020 until mid-June and the season finished the end of July games played behind closed doors and leagues one and two didn't restart and they finished in March 2020 and the final tables were decided on a points per game basis non-league fixtures cancelled altogether next season 2020-21 started in September with obviously no crowds and then some spectators were allowed back in by the end of the season and we didn't know at this point if we'd be able to keep publishing because obviously everyone was having to stay at home but it turned out that printers were allowed to keep working it's like a reserved occupation as in like wartime so The mag did get printed and distributed.
Andy LyonsPANELIST
28:37
Not many copies were sent to shops.
Andy LyonsPANELIST
28:39
There were some, but we had to cut back our shop orders quite a bit.
George EdwardsPANELIST
31:40
And I just really think that one day it's going to click and we're just going to win like three or four nil and it's going to be the sort of start of it.
George EdwardsPANELIST
31:48
Are you confident that Marinakis is also going to be patient? A lot of people that are sort of non-Forest keep asking me, oh, Glasner must be under pressure, you know, Marinakis isn't and all this.
George EdwardsPANELIST
31:58
And I feel like, obviously, that's the media perception of Marinakis.
George EdwardsPANELIST
32:01
But actually, I think the amount is invested in Oliver Glasner.
George EdwardsPANELIST
32:04
He is going to stick with him.
Nick BramleyHOST
45:30
been...
Nick BramleyHOST
45:31
Marinakis loves to pull the trigger, doesn't he?
Dom HanrahanHOST
45:34
He does, and it's all quiet on the Western front in terms of Marinakis at the moment.
Dom HanrahanHOST
45:41
I think it's because...
Dom HanrahanHOST
45:43
Forest haven't been terrible.
Richard SprayHOST
57:31
Two clear and obvious mistakes that didn't get acknowledged and got acknowledged at least secondarily after the fact post-match that they were bad decisions.
Richard SprayHOST
57:42
How many more times are we going to keep having to endure that before things need to change and before Marinakis, rather than sending an email, tries to... coordinate with the powers that be to be like what is going on here guys this is not being executed appropriately i mean you know how i feel about var i feel like you've been it for a season and see what happens and you go and do a post audit on how many times they missed things but it was undermined by the fact that he didn't call a foul initially i mean i think that just destroys the credibility of what he did as a secondary review of that because he clearly didn't even see an obvious thing from the very beginning and to your point it was good that var intervened in the appropriate sense but yeah i just think you have to put it out of your mind i know glasner will be in that dresser and be like you know what i'm pissed off about it i'm not happy it was clearly a bad decision that's happened multiple times this season guys but we greg you're that you're that you're the author of this phrase well maybe not the author of this phrase but you're a regular and utilizing this phrase which is you make your own luck and so i think at this stage that's all we can do it's the proverbial control what you can control and so i think at this stage that's where we have to keep our minds at That's the headspace we have to reside in.
Richard SprayHOST
58:47
And hopefully that, like I keep saying, I feel like it's just percolating.
Richard SprayHOST
58:50
I feel like it's building, right? I mean, the pressure is mounting, not in a bad way, in a good way to where the dam's going to burst at some point.
Matt FordeHOST
11:12
Yes.
Matt DysonHOST
11:13
Mr. Marinakis.
Matt DysonHOST
11:14
Mr. Marinakis.
Matt DysonHOST
11:15
I said to my wife,
Matt FordeHOST
11:15
we've got to take our forest shirts, honestly.
Matt FordeHOST
11:17
Did they love it? This shirt I like.
Matt FordeHOST
11:19
This shirt I like.
Matt DysonHOST
11:20
Mr. Marinakis, yes.
Dave HendrickHOST
13:40
I wouldn't even consider getting rid of him.
Dave HendrickHOST
13:42
But Marinakis is very unpredictable.
Guy DrinkellHOST
13:47
Yeah, and if we were to leave, I'm sure many of those clubs we just mentioned as well would be itchy feet about Glasner as well.
Guy DrinkellHOST
13:55
So yeah, that would be an interesting one.
Adrian DurhamHOST
12:41
Let's be real.
Adrian DurhamHOST
12:42
Marinakis gave him the job to annoy Crystal Pallets.
Adrian DurhamHOST
12:45
Glasner took the job because of the money, and it's insane.
Adrian DurhamHOST
12:48
It's four times what he was on at Crystal Pallets.
Adrian DurhamHOST
13:51
So, I think that he's trying to throw in feeble excuses now as to why it's really bad and why they're not scoring and why they're not winning.
Adrian DurhamHOST
13:59
He said consistently he needs time and I think that's fair enough, but...
Adrian DurhamHOST
14:03
Not in a forest, and Marinakis do not give managers time.
Adrian DurhamHOST
14:06
We know that.
Dave HendrickHOST
13:39
I wouldn't even consider getting rid of him.
Dave HendrickHOST
13:42
But Marinakis is very unpredictable.
Guy DrinkelGUEST
13:47
Yeah, and if we were to leave, I'm sure many of those clubs we just mentioned as well would be itchy feet about Glasner as well.
Guy DrinkelGUEST
13:54
So yeah, that would be an interesting one.
