Leicester manager Ruud van Nistelrooy, speaking to Sky Sports: “That is a point away at Brighton, a good performance against Liverpool, we beat Southampton and now a point here.
“We know we are relegated but we want to show what we’re about. We want to keep showing and not give up on ourselves. We had to move on and not wait until next season to start.
“The reaction of the away fans is clear and I’m happy.”
On the improved recent form: “You can say there is no pressure and then we start to perform. It’s possible but I think it’s important after relegation we move on and keep improving.
“We want to give the fans positivty for the fans.”
On change of approach: “It’s shifted from fighting to staying in the league to the future and that shift you see results, performance and development.
“I’m happy with that but of course the relegation is still painful. It’s clear what the plans are and I’m putting it into practice.”
On his future: “It’s my responsibility as manager of the football club to do what is best for the club whether my future is clear or not clear.
“What the future will bring, I don’t know. We go day to day, week to week.”
This is what fans are saying as Nott’m Forest owner Evangelos Marinakis issues a statement after Nuno explains the full time confrontation…
@NMBLAKE: Those Physio’s are fucked
@JohnIntraining: We thought the same, he was not fit to continue. I would have ran on the pitch but I would have got a 3k fine and a life time banning order. Just saying boss. #nffc
@ben_smithynffc: So the whole argument was because taiwos a bell and should’ve just come off! Sure most pundits are just cunts wanting to create unrest like @GNev2 and @Carra23
@kainebarr: love our owner comes out clears the air @SkySports tell you pundits to pipe down, this guy, owns the club and loves it, he should be able to walk where ever he wants. Look at Italian/Spanish football, sometimes the players have 2 say sorry, face2face 2fans about performance shown
@dj_zotov: Class from Nuno. Also I love the owners passion to make us winners. 3 PL seasons done & he has delivered European football. Thought it’d be 4/5 years. We’re ahead of schedule & a big summer can ensure we progress further next season. European football back at CG again. 👏 #NFFC
@Helmkay6: Passionate and frustrated, just like all of us were! Yes, I wish this happened off camera to not start the bollocks in the first place, but some of the shit I see the media/pundits plus even some of our own. Forever grateful to this man. Happy he’s our owner. #nffc
@ForestFanF13794: Fair enough. Love this guy. At least he cares… although I feel for the medical team. Looks like they get the brunt of this one. Bad day at the office for them. #NFFC
@Forest_No_22: F*ck off Neville. F*ck off Carragher. And f*ck off every other little media twerp choosing to ignore the wider context, which Nuno himself has put out there! If only you lambasted the greedy 6 for what their faceless owners tried to do. Or have you forgotten that? #NFFC
