Kali has left on loan!
That leaves Jesus and Awonyi?
Hmmmmm ?.
1.) 02 Jan 2026 14:01:36
See below.
2.) 02 Jan 2026 14:03:29
Nottingham Forest have agreed a deal with Eintracht Frankfurt for striker Arnaud Kalimuendo to leave the club just months after he joined, according to Sky Sports Germany journalist Florian Plettenberg.
3.) 02 Jan 2026 14:43:53
Sean Dyche seems to take against certain player's and doesn't give em a far chance, did the same to O'Brien at Everton. If Kalimuendo has left can only think someone's lined up to come to us.
4.) 02 Jan 2026 20:43:00
Rumour has it that Kalimuendo was not a great trainer which, on 40 grand a week, would get up my nose as well Mossy! ☹️.
5.) 02 Jan 2026 21:58:05
The problem is Stokey, John Robertson wasn't great at training, the great players usually had an adversion to it, mentioned a few in a previous post, not saying Kalimuendo would be anywhere near there greatness, but Sean Dyches mantra is a player has to do the "Hard Yards" yet the team looked shattered against Everton.
6.) 03 Jan 2026 11:38:45
Kalimuendo on the bench today, seems he can be in two places at once??.
7.) 07 Jan 2026 18:55:30
Clough was a one off and allowed players to have a cigarette at half time let the go out on the pi55 so long as they performed when needed so Robbo was also a one off over weight and unfit but his performance on the pitch didn't suffer.
8.) 07 Jan 2026 20:20:18
Fair enough but Kalimuendo is no John Robertson. He was in a League of his own mate!
09 Jul 2025 18:38:37
No idea if there is any truth in this?
According to Sports Mole on Nottingham Forest 24 7 site MGW has agreed personal term's with Man City! ?????.
1.) 09 Jul 2025 20:31:22
Nah. McAtee possibly coming our way, MGW staying.
2.) 10 Jul 2025 07:55:39
Sky reckon we are trying to sign McAtee now as well. We do need players who are from an English Academy to meet the regulations:-
At least eight players must be "homegrown, " meaning they were trained by the club or another club in the same national association for at least three years between the ages of 15 and 21. A separate List B exists for younger players (born on or after January 1st of a specific year) who have been at the club for at least two consecutive years.
McAtee qualifies as a home-grown.
3.) 10 Jul 2025 09:19:38
McAtee absolutely useless having watched all of the U21 performances. Also my mate who's a Man City season ticket holder - goes home and away every week says he's Championship class and money for him welcome! If this is true relegation battle coming.
4.) 10 Jul 2025 16:27:35
McAtee. no thanks.
26 Aug 2024 17:23:14
Will Gimenez come?
More twists and turns than a Helter Skelter!
Apparently he's changed his mind!
Was he coming at all?
The joy's of a being a Forest Fan!
Frustrating, nail biting yet enjoyable not knowing what is happening regarding transfers! ?????.
1.) 26 Aug 2024 18:32:24
Wish it was enjoyable. Predictable as in a here we go again.
2.) 26 Aug 2024 21:43:09
Seems the Mexican doesn't fancy Forest, we certainly don't need anyone who doesn't want to be at the WFCG.
3.) 26 Aug 2024 21:56:22
If he doesn't want to or he's not sure about the move then we should move on.
4.) 27 Aug 2024 08:54:50
It’s a classic Mexican standoff imo……??.
5.) 27 Aug 2024 10:16:38
He isn’t coming. Thinks he’s too god for us. **** him! He can sit in leverkusens reserves. Prick.
6.) 27 Aug 2024 11:15:20
Probably because he is, Tricky. Challenging for League titles and playing continental football or a relegation battle? Hmmm. Now let me think about that one.
7.) 27 Aug 2024 18:01:05
Its more than likely a game for higher wages I think.
8.) 27 Aug 2024 21:20:47
Another one has rejected a move to Forest. Brobbey from Ajax apparently. His agent said he won't send his player to just any club and it's got to be a good move. Allegedly anyway.
9.) 28 Aug 2024 00:18:25
It's a pity the Black Orchid has closed, made Roy Keane the man he is?.
10.) 28 Aug 2024 07:08:23
Black Orchid is a blast from the past, Vespa. I used to love going there on a Friday night.
11.) 28 Aug 2024 18:43:01
Black boy did a nice Bernie.
12.) 28 Aug 2024 23:08:48
Is it in the contract that he could be dragged kicking and screaming to play in Greece, regardless what he wants.
13.) 29 Aug 2024 19:33:48
Just given Forest the "Mexican Wave".
26 Aug 2024 13:51:05
Gimenez deal all but done apparently?
Was Eddie N just a smoke screen?
1.) 26 Aug 2024 15:04:02
Probably all part of the "Poker" game RiR.
2.) 26 Aug 2024 15:35:25
More than likely.

A quote from Dyche!
No one mentions the amount of money put into the signings that didn’t do so well. That’s not a pointed comment about anyone, I’m just saying it (recruitment) is that difficult.
16 Jan 2026 16:57:15
We are considering bringing in another midfielder. Do you think it would be more important to focus on a striker? Or have Edu and Marinakis changed their priorities?
1.) 16 Jan 2026 18:40:10
We needed a striker last January aswell ripley, hard commodity to come across in January
Midfield is the last thing we need to strengthen.
2.) 16 Jan 2026 18:46:10
Aren’t their priorities wasting money?
CARLO.
3.) 16 Jan 2026 18:55:19
Is it yours though?
22 Nov 2025 17:21:38
Well done lad's!
COYR ??❤️❤️❤️.
1.) 22 Nov 2025 17:42:08
Can we play ya every week, can we play ya, every week.
2.) 22 Nov 2025 17:43:41
Brilliant win tonight we'll done lads and dyche looking forward to seeing it later ?.
26 Jul 2025 20:22:05
Forest losing!
04 Jul 2025 09:06:02
Questions?
Will Forest pull another hat out the hat to replace Elanga or will Forest suffer the consequences?
1.) 04 Jul 2025 09:35:47
I think it's going to be a difficult season even if Elanga was staying!, Nuno must have anticipated him going, we have been looking at other teams wingers pre-season. If you look at the purple patch Elanga had in isolation when the whole team was superb, he will be missed, but making him stay won't make team spirit any good, it's a shame Elanga doesn't see his future at Forest, but we wii adjust and move on!.
2.) 04 Jul 2025 10:50:48
Agreed mossy, if his heads been turned only thing we can do is recoup as much money as we can from the toon. 65 mill plus isn't bad, should be able to replace him for a snip of that. Yilmaz or similar hopefully.
3.) 04 Jul 2025 14:19:11
I can't personally see Forest going for Yilmaz.
The only problem I see is whether the power's that be can convince player's to come to Forest.
4.) 05 Jul 2025 09:22:14
That’s seemingly becoming a big problem for us red.
5.) 05 Jul 2025 12:33:41
We over achieved last year, with all the players playing well, as seen at the end of the season just didn't have enough options. As much as I would like elanga to stay, we are most likely always going to have to sell a player for big money to keep building a better squad with more options. I thought we would be 12-14th last year, am hoping we can finish in top 10 this year.
6.) 05 Jul 2025 14:13:15
I agree 100% with that post Monty. I’d be very happy with mid table, especially with the extra games in Europe. We were lucky last season with fitness, discipline and Woody getting 20 goals. Depends on who goes and who stays but, as you say, we massively over achieved last season. Plus we have 3 long term injuries before the season starts and I can’t see Man Utd and Spurs being as dire as they were. 12 points off them and 4 off Liverpool was massive for us, plus beating Man City and Aston Villa, all with many times our resources …….
7.) 05 Jul 2025 23:17:06
You all underestimate marinakis
The club is going places and he won't settle for mid table.
8.) 06 Jul 2025 18:07:14
It's what forest fans do a lot tbh dtp. Like you with nuno and sels.

Heard Luiz has turned down Everton.
Probably end up at Man U?
28 Jul 2025 13:58:37
If the Greekfather is doing it the price will cheaper otherwise a horse's ? head will be in someone's bed.
26 Jul 2025 16:53:09
Red I know we have a ding dong or three but Traore. not for me.
26 Jul 2025 16:52:12
Fofona going to Everton. ?????.
25 Jul 2025 21:29:37
No thanks.
Ndoye should be a replacement for Elanga.
Edu doing what he does best.
Sweet FA!

Isn't Jesus injured?
22 Jan 2026 12:15:46
When an opinion is not well-received, it is important to acknowledge its existence without expressing personal offense or grievance. This can be achieved by suggesting a countertheory or alternative perspective, demonstrating that you have considered the opinion while maintaining a calm head.
21 Jan 2026 17:35:48
This won't happen, RRHood. If he doesn't fulfill Edu's over-complex statistics, he won't be entertained.
21 Jan 2026 17:34:42
One name EDU!
21 Jan 2026 17:34:18
This is a tactical move on Dyche's part, designed to ensure he can fully unleash Cubiana once he gains a deeper understanding of the Premier League's intricacies. Until that point, Cubiana will serve as a training cone, requiring him to prove his worth by fully integrating with it.
Hope this helps?
