Nottingham Forest Sacks Manager Postecoglou After Just 39 Days

Ange Postecoglou has been removed from his role as the head coach of Nottingham Forest. His time at the club lasted only 39 days, a period in which the team played eight matches without a single win. Postecoglou, who was appointed on September 9, 2025, was dismissed after a 3-0 defeat to Chelsea at home on October 18, 2025.

Under Postecoglou’s management, the team’s record stood at 0 wins, 2 draws, and 6 losses, making his term the shortest for any manager in Premier League history.
There was significant dissatisfaction among the club’s supporters during his brief spell. This included chants of “sacked in the morning” during a Europa League match. The situation worsened as Forest slipped to 17th in the Premier League standings. Despite his confident statements about winning trophies, the team’s performance did not improve. The final decision came after the loss to Chelsea, a match in which Pedro Neto was a key player. Nottingham Forest is now searching for its third manager of the season to fight off the threat of relegation.
