Dexter Blackstock is currently trying to find himself an agent with links outside the UK. Well he has been asking for one, I assume for himself. Judging by what has been said on here, it seems likely he will be leaving Forest and you will all be happy to be rid.

I don't think he's ever let us down ed and I wouldn't be one to say I'd be glad to see him go, I've heard he is paid a ridiculous amount so the money side would be beneficial but he has been a decent player (with a few limitations) and did put in some important goals for us. Good luck to him.
{Ed001's Note - ok mate, I was just judging by the posts I have read. They tend to be very negative about him.}

Turns up a couple of times a season. No thanks, get him off the wage bill.
3.) 07 Jun 2016 08:31:32
He can go for me .
lazy and no good for us going forward in the future.
I wish him all the best.

Lazy?
Dexter is not the most gifted player, but anyone who has actually watched him play will know that he is not lazy. It is not his fault what he gets paid. He is always willing to put his body on the line and this is why he has suffered from so many injuries.
The biggest problem with Dexter is that he needs a run of games to find his best form, but his body struggles when he plays regularly.
Having said all that, if he wants to leave, I would not stop him.

Dex pops up with the odd important goal but as GazzaRed says he only turns up a couple of times a season PLUS he is very injury prone. I wouldn't say he was a lazy player Darrenforest1976 that is just his style of play ;)
6.) 07 Jun 2016 09:23:24
Sorry just read he needs a run of game and had to chuckle he's played well over 200 games his best ever career total is 13 goals but I would look at him playing a different role may be in defence it's worked successfully before give dex his due though he's not lazy and good with his head.
7.) 07 Jun 2016 09:36:02
Never let us down. Brave in the air but not the best option going foward. All the best dex.
8.) 07 Jun 2016 09:58:51
I must admit when he first arrived on loan and his first season he was great but his major injury finished him off. last couple of seasons. slow, uninspiring, massive wage bill. got to go.
9.) 07 Jun 2016 09:58:52
Another of the players like Guy Moussi who once they got their three-year contract never were the same again. Blackstock wasn't lazy just too laid-back. And never pinned down a regular slot. A luxury on the bench.
10.) 07 Jun 2016 15:33:12
Scored more than Macheda, Akpon, and anyone else who should have been behind him in the pecking order.

Ed001. The only confirmed thing is there is speculation.

Forest have spoken to Hull City regarding Maguire. I don't know anything more than that, though they are looking to send him out to the Championship on loan, so I am not sure who approached who about him. It might well be that Hull asked if Forest want him to cover injuries.
1.) I'm not saying this is untrue, however I can see why we need another CB when laselles is available, Hobbs yes is injured but is it long term? Wilson ands mancinne looking good partnership. COYR
2.) Cant see us needing another CB on loan, we have Laselles, the 2 kids in reserve, plus Halford Collins and Fox who can all play in this position too
3.) And don't forget there is Laing as well

Another interesting read Ed 1. Like you I was surprised that Klopp didn’t wait until the end of the season to announce his departure. The last thing you want at the business end of the season is uncertainty for the future.
Tactically I think Liverpool missed the bravery of the youngsters too. Palace worked very very hard to their credit. All is not lost as Arsenal were unexpectedly defeated. It could be like Black Week in the Boer War where the British Army suffered 3 defeats in a week ( Stormberg, Magersfontein and Colenso) but went on to win the War. They realised they had underestimated their opponents, changed tactics and did sensible things like issued modern rifles to their cavalry units instead of lances, used long range modern artillery and balloons to reconnoiter. Liverpool might well turn the corner tactically in a similar way, become more mobile and not just think they have to turn up to achieve victory ( especially at Anfield and after being given a football lesson in the Europa ).
{Ed001's Note - I would love to think you are right, but I can't see it. Lijnders has Klopp's ear and he is tactically useless but too far up his own arse to see it.}

Ed1 you could always buy back origi I'm sure he wouldn't miss many chances for you ?.
2.) 11 Apr 2024 18:42:03
Always an interesting and perceptive read Ed1. ??I watched the game and all Liverpools first half dominance was undone by a slack pass and a first time bit of Fernandes skill.
It got the crowd back onside and was a turning point definately.
{Ed001's Note - thanks Stokey. No point dominating unless you put the ball in the back of the net though.}

I think it is fair to point out, I have nothing personal against Joe Cole, he is actually a lovely lad, a really nice lad who does work his butt off when he is on the pitch. The problem is that he is not very bright, and when he is training he tries too hard to be one of the lads and ends up slacking off messing around with his mates. That is probably why he did better while in France, as he would not have been able to do that, with him being unable to really get into the banter due to the language barrier. He allows himself to get distracted and led astray, in a very similar way to Gazza, though without anything like as much talent to get away with it.

Nonsense Rutland. The country can insist a player is checked out by their medical staff. Clubs cannot refuse to send a player, they can only advise the national team they are not fit for selection. It is then up to the nation to decide to call them up or not.

I thought you might be suffering today! Cheers mate, and good luck for Forest in the play-offs.
