One thing that puzzles me. Why hasn't BJ agreed to a new Forest contract? Surely a double your wages 4 year deal with an agreed 25 million transfer clause inserted if a Premier club made an offer would protect both player and club. I hope we don't sell him in Jan but if we got 20m for him and bought Spence and Lowe and brought in another winger we would at least be securing 2 great wing backs.

I would say he is edging his bets, by not signing now he is waiting to see if we remain competitive in the Championship, if we were to get promoted he could command much more money, if we drop down the table he can leave and we get less money for him.
If a Premier league club came in for him now that he wanted to join his contract ending soon saves them money.

We MUST keep Johnson, he is our only outlet, and with his pace gives the opposition something to think about even when THEY are on the attack?
They know if they lose that ball, we're only seconds away from going up the other end and slotting one in their net!
When was the last time we had someone like him? .
Collymore, or Roy ven Franz Carr springs to mind
I know he can be quite lightweight and whinges alot, however who else have we with that kind of turn of pace?
So for me, he simply has to stay!

Rogie I have been saying the same. He has pace and ability that if we were to try and buy would cost £20 to £30mil

P. s Spence has ability and pace ok he's not a striker but if I had a choice between the 2 I would keep Spence All day long.

I personally think that if you know who was still managing Johnno would have been sold by now and that is probably one of the main reasons he never signed the contract. However, now he is playing in an attacking team and with the possibility of playing in the Prem for his boyhood club, he cannot lose when it comes to negotiating a new contract. If we go up, he will get a lucrative contract and if we don't he can just say these are my terms and the club will say that is fair enough and he will sign a contract, probably with a clause stating that if anyone wants to pay say £20m, he will be allowed to go if he wants to play for that club and Forest won, t stand in his way. I truely believe that Johnno will do what is right for his home town club, whilst still doing what is best for him and his family. KTF and Coyr.

With Assombalonga's contract running down and Grabban not really on form this season who would you prefer? If Lamouchi came in for Grabbs and offered us 2.5 or 3m I reckon we could spend that on Britt. I know Britt is 28 but I think Grabbs is 33 so would make sense to me. Who would you prefer?
1.) 15 Jan 2021 09:37:58
Come home Britt!
2.) 15 Jan 2021 10:52:40
Where is home, Watford, or Peterborough. ðŸ˜.

Britt never really regained full fitness after his injury at Forest ,no more crocks please .

Well i wouldn't put brit before taylor (although i still think he could be played in a different position) or grabs.
6.) 16 Jan 2021 09:30:43
just hope they put in a good shift and 3pts much needed.

Arter signing is great news. What is the latest on McKenna? Wonder why it is taking a long time to officially announce him, we clearly need a defender that can actually win headers and dominate his own penalty box as we are such a soft touch and all opposing teams know this! But how do we offload at least 10 players in our vastly inflated squad that are all on stupid wages? These players must be costing us £200,000 a week in wages, that's £10 million A YEAR!
1.) 22 Sep 2020 21:06:03
Said to have demanded £30,000 a week, he has more to prove than most of the others. I doubt anyone else would have payed him that.
2.) 22 Sep 2020 21:21:09
Think £200,000 is way light what would the average wage be at forest 15k a week? With a squad of 30 that £450,000 a week 23.4 mill a year and I think we have more than 30 first team as well.

If the club accepted bids on Joe W and BJ against the wishes of Steve Cooper our manager could walk away to a lower Premier league job. He has done an amazing job so far and is building a great team spirit. That would fall apart if we lost both players and no time to replace them in January. Back the manager and Premier League football is definitely a possibility this season.

I think for the Cup game v Swansea Jenkinson and Bong will play. Smith should be in goal and MbeSoh should definitely start and maybe rest McK or Worrall. It worried me tonight we didn't have a single central midfielder on the bench. Do we not have any that are fit enough?
14 Jan 2021 10:35:48
We do not need more centre backs. We have Worrall McKenna Figs and Mbe so and also as back up Blackett and Dawson. The only reason we are being linked with another past it player would be to replace our captain Worrall which really would be the final straw for me! We need a no. 10 and creative players not more overpaid bench warmers!
