Overview

• Postecoglou confirmed he expects discussions with Evangelos Marinakis after a 2-0 defeat at Newcastle left Forest winless in seven across competitions.
• Football Insider reports he will not be sacked during the break and will be in charge for Chelsea on October 18, though other insiders have suggested a dismissal is “more likely than not.”
• The board is demanding immediate improvement with Chelsea, Porto and Bournemouth to come in a 10-day stretch once play resumes.
• Forest are assessing alternatives, with multiple outlets saying Fulham’s Marco Silva is a long‑term target and any formal move would likely wait until summer; Rafael Benítez has also been mentioned as a possible short-term option by commentators.
• Supporter unrest has been audible at recent matches and one well-connected scout says some players are disillusioned by the constant changes following Nuno Espirito Santo’s departure last month.
