Plenty of Nottingham Forest fans have reacted on social media, after the club announced their decision to appoint Sabri Lamouchi as their new head coach, immediately after sacking Martin O'Neill. 

O'Neill has been sacked as manager of Nottingham Forest, just five months after taking charge at the City Ground and the club have wasted no time at all in appointing his successor.

Lamouchi was last in charge of Ligue 1 side Rennes and has also managed the Ivory Coast national team, where he was able to guide them to the World Cup in 2014.

Forest were four points outside the play-off places when O'Neill replace Aitor Karanka in charge at the City Ground earlier this year, but he was unable to guide them to a top-six finish.

O'Neill's departure from the City Ground comes just days after his assistant Roy Keane left the club.
