Ange Postecoglou has made unwanted history at Nottingham Forest after becoming the first permanent manager in a century to fail to win any of his opening six matches in charge.
The Australian coach, who was appointed in the summer with hopes of stabilising and revitalising the club, has endured a difficult start to life at the City Ground.
Naija News reports that Ange Postecoglou lost his job at Tottenham Hotspur in June 2025 barely two seasons after he was appointed from Celtic.
So far, Postecoglou’s tenure has seen a string of disappointing outcomes. Forest opened with a heavy 3-0 defeat against Arsenal, followed by a 3-2 loss to Swansea.
A 1-1 draw against Burnley and a spirited 2-2 stalemate with Real Betis provided little relief before back-to-back defeats to Sunderland (1-0) and Midtjylland sealed his unwanted record.
Postecoglou’s struggles were compounded on Thursday night as Forest fell 3-2 to FC Midtjylland in the Europa League.
The pressure is mounting, with Forest fans growing anxious about the direction of the campaign. Their next three fixtures will be no less daunting, as they face Newcastle away before returning to host Chelsea and Portuguese giants Porto at home.
Postecoglou is known for his attacking philosophy and resilience, but his ability to steady the ship will be severely tested in the coming weeks.
