Some angry Nottingham Forest fans respond to Aitor Karanka's latest comments

Nottingham Forest boss Aitor Karanka has suggested that his side’s own fans put the team under pressure.

Aitor Karanka, Manager of Middlesbrough smiles during the EFL Cup second round match between Fulham and Middlesbrough at Craven Cottage on August 24, 2016 in London, England.

Nottingham Forest fans have had a divided response to Aitor Karanka’s comments on the atmosphere at the City Ground.

Karanka was talking to BBC Nottingham Sport when he suggested that Forest fans were putting their own team under pressure.

The Spaniard felt that the Reds supporters had made it more difficult for their own side against Norwich City at the weekend, at times.

And some Forest fans have questioned whether the comments are wise for Karanka to have made.

Playing a dangerous game here Mr Karanka. #nffc

He’s on thin ice with this, players and himself are paid alot of money, some people’s wage for a year in a week, when you start having a pop at the fans it only ends badly

The only time I heard any boo’s or real grumbles were when he substituted our best players despite needing goals and at full time after a dismal performance. This is called deflection from Mr Karanka. He got it wrong on Saturday #nffc

Agree with him, no problem with people getting passionate about how the team is playing. That passion needs to be transferred in to a positive influence. Cheering, encouraging, singing about #NFFC players/managers name. Booing is only negative, it won’t improve performances.

Everything he has said is spot on. The people criticising are the same people who are part of the problem. He is playing a dangerous game though because we have more than our fair share of muppets and they shout very loudly when things go wrong. #nffc

@MattDockers turns out it’s our fault for the defeat on Saturday. You should have cheered when Pantilimon pumped it out of play from a goal kick, and when Karanka took off the form player in the league. Feel like I owe them a BIG apology

Forest were beaten 2-1 by Norwich in their last outing, as their strong run of form came to an end.

The Reds are currently in ninth place in the Championship, but expectations are definitely high at the City Ground.

Forest are next in action tomorrow against Bolton Wanderers, and Karanka may be intrigued to see whether his team play with more freedom on their travels.
