Yet it is a pretty effective way to bring together players, coaches, directors and supporters.<\/p>\n<p>Forest\u2019s unity last season was the envy of the Premier League but that bond seems to have weakened. Even though owner Evangelos Marinakis twice came close to sacking boss Steve Cooper, the atmosphere at the City Ground was unmatched as supporters and players drove each other forward.<\/p>\n<p>In their first Premier League campaign this century, Forest knew they had been written off before a ball had been kicked and they were determined to prove those doubters wrong. Cooper called the challenge of integrating 30 new players \u2018unique\u2019 and Forest did not half rise to it.<\/p>\n<p>Where is that clarity of ambition now? Forest look directionless. Their predicament has been experienced by so many clubs that it has its own name \u2013 second-season syndrome.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/12\/03\/10\/78520499-0-image-a-15_1701600985966.jpg\" height=\"423\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Last term Forest forged an \u2018us against the world\u2019 spirit in a difficult but exciting new league<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/12\/03\/11\/78520581-0-image-a-32_1701601335391.jpg\" height=\"450\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Forest\u2019s unity last season was the envy of the league but that bond seems to have weakened<\/p>\n<p>Your browser does not support iframes.<\/p>\n<p>Last term Forest forged an \u2018us against the world\u2019 spirit in a difficult but exciting new league. They returned for pre-season in July knowing that the best they could probably hope for was a lower-mid-table finish.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Hardly something to set the pulses of players or fans racing \u2013 as good a man-manager as Cooper is. There were some boos at the City Ground after Forest produced one of their poorest displays of the campaign to lose 1-0 at home to Everton, thanks to Dwight McNeil\u2019s second-half strike. That reaction would have been unthinkable as Forest marched towards survival last spring.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018There are always lots of emotions when supporters are leaving the ground and whatever those are, they come from support and love for the club,\u2019 said Cooper. \u2018I\u2019ve no problem with that. It comes from the heart.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018We\u2019ve lost two on the bounce at home. We can talk about refereeing decisions that have gone against us but we have to work hard to put it right.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018I don\u2019t know if confidence is the right word but I\u2019d like us to be braver in the final third, focused on making the final pass the right one. You need that quality to create chances.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>Marinakis is targeting a top-10 finish after spending close to \u00a3300million on transfers in the last three windows and that is why Cooper finds himself in danger again, with the matches at Fulham and Wolves on Wednesday and Saturday respectively looking pivotal. Marinakis admires Fulham coach Marco Silva, who he employed at Greek giants Olympiacos from 2015-16, and a comfortable win for the Cottagers would not reflect favourably on Cooper.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/12\/03\/10\/78520521-0-image-a-17_1701600995245.jpg\" height=\"423\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>The penalty has brought together players and supporters for Everton manager Sean Dyche<\/p>\n<p>Everton are still in the relegation zone due to the deduction but without it, they would be close to the top half. Dyche\u2019s men will fancy their chances on Thursday at home to Chelsea, who have looked wobbly all season, though Newcastle at Goodison three days later will be a severe test.<\/p>\n<p>Their success at the City Ground owed much to James Garner, who took control of midfield. Garner spent the 2021-22 season on loan at Forest from Manchester United and Cooper was very keen to sign him permanently after promotion, only for the 22-year-old to stay in the north-west instead. Garner\u2019s form this term suggests it would have been a wise investment.<\/p>\n<p>This was Everton\u2019s third win on the road, achieved without star centre-forward Dominic Calvert-Lewin, and Dyche said: \u2018There has always been a lot of noise about the away form and we wanted to correct it. The mentality and belief have been improving all the time.\u2019<\/p>\n<h3>IT&#8217;S ALL KICKING OFF!\u00a0<\/h3>\n<p><span><span>It&#8217;s All Kicking Off is an exciting new podcast from Mail Sport that promises a different take on Premier League football.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span><span>It is available on MailOnline, Mail+, YouTube, Apple Music and Spotify.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p>Your browser does not support iframes.<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailymail.co.uk\/sport\/football\/article-12819851\/TOM-COLLOMOSSE-Evertons-10-point-deduction-giving-purpose-Nottingham-Forest-struggling-find.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read Full Article<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>TOM COLLOMOSSE: Everton&#8217;s 10-point deduction is giving Sean Dyche&#8217;s side the sense of purpose that directionless Nottingham Forest are desperately [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":299409,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[19],"tags":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.8 -
