Nottingham Forest midfielder Matty Cash has insisted that he and his teammates are still behind their manager, with the 21-year-old stating that Aitor Karanka is a “fantastic” boss, as reported by the Nottingham Post.
Cash’s comments came in the wake of the Reds’ 3-3 draw with Norwich City. Karanka’s side held a 3-0 lead at Carrow Road until the 77th minute, when the home side began their remarkable comeback.

The draw left Forest in 10th place in the Championship table and saw the pressure ramped up on Karanka. Having spent heavily in the summer on a number of first team signings, the Midlands outfit were expected to be mounting a serious promotion push at this stage in the season.
Karanka needs to turn the Reds’ season around quickly, as the current level that Forest are playing at is falling well below the expectations of many. Perhaps, the 45-year-old Spaniard’s time at the helm at the City Ground ought to brought to an end now anyway, so as to give the club the boost of a new manager and a fresh start.
What do you think, Forest fans, is Karanka still the man for the job?
