Rumblings coming out of the Spurs camp that Conte wants Spence to go out on loan and he has refused hence not in the squad again today, grass and greener come to mind.

Skeg we did not make an offer for spence. The reason the deal to spurs took so long is that boro gave up on forest making an offer. From what I gathered spence wanted to come to us but cooper did not want him.


2.) 21 Aug 2022 08:24:42
Think Cooper wanted him we just weren't willing to pay 20 mill.


3.) 21 Aug 2022 09:11:08
Djed was warned on here and other places he would be polishing seats at Spurs but obviously didn’t listen. I hope he gets it all sorted soon, he’s too good a talent not to be playing.

Let's all get on the Marinakis out bandwagon, how many on here moaned about Ben Watson and Tiago Silva last season, mainly the top posters on here, They are basically all that's missing from the side that kept us in the top six most of last season apart from Matt Cash, we signed a IMO at the time a good replacement in Christie as cover who'd just won promotion, we signed Arter for CM another who had won promotion, we signed Colback DM from the prem, Knockerhart from the prem, Taylor top scorer at Charlton, McKenna scotland CB, Lamic Soh a 19 year old with huge potential for £3m, on paper we should have a squad to finish in the top six, who could have envisaged Samba Figueredo and Grabban between them would cost us a good 15 points through sloppy play and abysmal finishing, ok the players we've signed haven't worked but before a ball was kicked most of us thought they were all good signings and would see us near the top, so IMO Marinakis has backed the club but its the players who've let him and the fans down'.

Skegbyred

1.) 02 Jan 2021 07:56:01
Don't forget Freeman he is another that at the time we thought he would make a massive difference and that hasn't worked out either.


2.) 02 Jan 2021 08:05:50
I tottaly agree that th eowner has backed the club, the blmae muct be with the players who have not performed, let shope in this window some decent players can com ein, but i very doubt that considering the position in the league the club is in now.


3.) 02 Jan 2021 10:54:05
Skegby you make very good points and i tend to agree but that's one side of the arguement. Personally i always liked Watson. An yes we miss a Silva creatively but he was wasteful at set pieces and rarely scored. Set in is ways SL was a massive problem and the Dof. I think with experience has come age and attitude. I think hughton is the right man and yes marinakis has backed the club. But has he used HIS money or the sale of our youth players to fund the madness. Look where we are? Re the players really good enough?


4.) 02 Jan 2021 14:10:33
Recruitment people need sacking they’ve wasted too much money for far too long.


5.) 02 Jan 2021 17:41:39
On paper?
Thats the thing you have got right.
14 players coming in equals disruption and lack of unity.


 

 

17 Jan 2020 18:50:41
NEP latest another 30 million rated lightweight Portuguese nearly man, let's get Lyle Taylor and Grosiki in ASAP both strong quick and can score goals at championship level and probably sign both for around £2 million and if we don't get promoted they would both be great additions for next season.

Skegbyred

1.) 17 Jan 2020 19:31:46
Another unproven player.
Scorer 0 goals but hightly rated!
Hmmmmm. sounds like mendes has a tie with one. what a joke.
Don't understand why Lamouchi isn't been backed?
Is marinakis getting trigger happy again?


2.) 17 Jan 2020 19:32:57
Grosiki yes Taylor? No
Walker is better than Taylor and if Lincoln want compo then either pay them or offer other players we have as compo.


3.) 17 Jan 2020 19:39:46
Not another Joao we've got enough with the other clown 🤡.


4.) 17 Jan 2020 20:01:52
Look boys, so far we are signing.
Sako
Murray
Gray
Taylor
Kodja
Gayle
Wickham
Now the Portuguese lad at benfica.
We don't know if there was genuine interest its just journalists and Chinese whispers.


5.) 17 Jan 2020 20:30:21
We'll sign James Collins from Luton after he scores 2 against us on Sunday. We will win 3-2 of course with a Grabban hat trick 😁.


6.) 17 Jan 2020 20:33:20
Fawaz you don't know the deals that are happening behind closed doors so that's a bit presumptuous say SL isn't being backed.


7.) 17 Jan 2020 20:49:07
You are correct i don't know what is happening if anything.
At the minute he isn't being backed.
We have known for months key areas where players are required but instead of taking a proactive approach as usual forest drag their heels.
It seems we aren't serious about promotion.
We are over reliant with grabben and he gets injurered the goals will dry up.


8.) 17 Jan 2020 20:57:12
Has any club signed a player yet? Why are we complaining that Forest haven't. A lot of hard work going on in the background I'm sure, and our owner wants promotion just as much as the rest of us!


9.) 17 Jan 2020 21:11:23
Fawaz mate at least he isn't asking for 8 players or more like karanka every window?
He only wants a winger and a striker, now that's what I like to hear, just identifying what he sees as our weaknesses.
Very refreshing don't you think?


10.) 18 Jan 2020 07:14:21
Nooooo. you have done it ff. the name karanka hasn't been mentioned for ages until now! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣.
You're right though ff he hasn't asked for 8 but as he's asked for a striker perhaps he'll get a large box of matches instead.


11.) 18 Jan 2020 16:06:26
What is this carp about not serious about promotion? Nonsense.

Clubs are auctioning the available players. If we are bidding on a top player then expect the medical to be at the end of the window as clubs will try to get the maximum money for players and give clubs time to bid more. That is how it works. That is why not much business has been done by anyone yet.

You might want it to be easy to get the players you want but it isn't. Just because they haven't got the targets yet does not mean they haven't got targets and doesn't mean they won't get them.

Chill out!


12.) 18 Jan 2020 16:48:58
Good post cyclist and you echo my feelings.


13.) 18 Jan 2020 17:26:38
Unbelievable that people like FawazMark2 are still so negative. Win our 2 games in hand and we will be 2 points off second place. yet still finds something to moan about?!


14.) 18 Jan 2020 17:56:25
Cheers FF79

To take it a step further, the only way you get a player early in the window is if nobody else is interested in them (no thanks) or you pay silly money (no thanks Fawaz! ) .

So let's get a grip. January goes to the wire a lot of the time. Learn to love it. If it hurts reading speculation then don't read the papers or this site until February the 1st. I bet you can't manage it. :D.


15.) 18 Jan 2020 19:01:16
Red cyclist it's all about negotiation, prem clubs will part if they can get their targets first.
Not much happening in the prem so has a knock on effect.
So we look at the foreign market and you do get the option of a view to buy but usually at inflated prices.
It will all happen in the last few days when clubs get deals done that suits them.
Some fans compare the transfer market to doing the weekly shop, you see what you like on the shelf and buy it, football is big buisness and I do tend to think younger fans think 1p million is nothing and that isn't their fault it's just the way they've been bought up in this football world.
As a club the books have to be balanced, I don't actually agree with ffp as so long as an owner has the money and is willing to spend it and can't bankrupt the club, then let him or her spend their money I say.
But rules are rules so we should go along with them.
Marinakis will be delighted where we are and will know we need a few players and it will be done.
Hess invested so much and knows £150 million will bring back that investment while bringing us the biggest stadium in the east Midlands and putting forest back in the big time and the riches that brings.

Ryan Yates is the best midfielder at the club, SC wake up and see what you've got, the last time we won a game which was against Chelsea was the last time Yates's started a match and what a difference he made when he came on today.

Skegbyred

1.) 29 Oct 2023 18:55:34
Absolutely right Skegbyred ?.


2.) 29 Oct 2023 19:17:57
Strange when he came on last week people moaned at cooper because he came on for Dominguez, and upset ghe midfield, , now because we lost at Anfield he’s suddenly indispensable.


 

 

16 Sep 2023 13:11:46
I see Freuler has been moaning and doesn't know the reason he was left out of the last 6 matches last season , the simple reason is that he was rubbish and had he played we would have been playing championship football this season.

Skegbyred

1.) 16 Sep 2023 16:32:05
I remember him swapping shirts with someone at half time last season. Can't remember who the oppo was. I never wanted to see him in a Forest shirt again after that. Good riddance!

02 Aug 2023 07:34:26
This could be our team although they are all injured or not involved,
Shelvey
Buancone Panzo Niakhate Felipe Richards
Obrian Aguilera Scarpa
Dennis Johnson Tawio
Subs JJ Shelvey Cook Arter L Mbso Mighten Lareya Drager Hennessy
This is the reason we are selling Johnson the wage bill must be sinking us.

Skegbyred

1.) 02 Aug 2023 09:43:24
Reads like a total nightmare skegby.
Not one prem player amongst em apart from Felipe and Johnson. I could add plenty more to that list?.


2.) 02 Aug 2023 13:04:21
?. As if We'd have to play that team. ?

We have 2 international keepers before Shelvey: Hennessey and Horvath. We are about to sign at least one more.

Aurier, Boly, Felipe, Nikhate, Worrall, Aina, Williams
Mangala, Yates, Danilo
Awoniyi, Alanga, Scarpa etc.

Obviously some will leave if we are bringing in replacements, but the squad is too big.

We are only a LWB and GK short of the whole squad that stayed up last season. I read some total nonsense on here. We have also strengthened on top of that.

Some of the recent posts are borderline hysterical and not in touch with reality.


3.) 02 Aug 2023 13:54:02
Got to agree with you cyclist
Last season same posters saying we are signing to many
Now they are moaning we haven't signed enough?
West ham got at least 200million to spend but haven't got anyone yet
Only the big boys getting deals done.


4.) 02 Aug 2023 14:00:43
LWB and Gk short of a full squad! ??????????????????????????????????.
Have you been sharing drink's with DTP and Gazzi baldy!
That's like saying you could give some a grog on your Unicycle!
Hilarious yet ridiculous post Red!

6.) 02 Aug 2023 15:51:23
Fawaz, grow up.
Redcyclist you are spot on mate.


7.) 02 Aug 2023 16:01:21
You carry on last season's trend of being consistently wrong, Fawaz. We still have the squad that stayed up. Pretending won't stop you being wrong.


 

 

28 Jul 2023 07:19:04
So we start the match with 5 midfielders all defensively minded and probably none of them can see a pass apart from Danilo who had a quiet game our best ball wining midfielder Yates is playing in a different role up front, once again we persist with the non existent Freuler the pace in our midfield is frightening ( not ) Awoni doesn't look anywhere near being fit, on a positive side Powell looks a great prospect and in the second half when substitutes were made Scarpa looked class Aguilera looks bright and full of energy which we lacked in the first half Wood looks far better than Awoniyi at the moment Serge did ok and the stand out player for me was Elanga anyone who can remember how quick Franz Carr was well this guy is even quicker on last night's cameo performance he looks a steal for £15m.

Skegbyred

1.) 28 Jul 2023 10:15:06
Totally agree with you. I would add that our continued inability to keep possession and pass to a team mate fills me with concern. I understand that it's a friendly but it's an ongoing theme I'm afraid.


2.) 28 Jul 2023 11:47:00
If we aren't intending to play an Italian style slow passing game, then pointless playing Freuler. Fast counter attacking is obviously never going to suit him.

It looks to me like some of the players who started training late (Internationals) are too far behind if kick off is in 3 weeks. Dunno how pre-season works these days, but the fitness coaches should be on it.

Don't forget, we still have the team that was playing well at the end of last season, with two extra players at this point. If we sort LWB and GK, CDM then we are in a good place.


3.) 28 Jul 2023 11:58:32
Same as all the way through last season then.


4.) 28 Jul 2023 13:00:59
The same team as last season without Navas cyclist, a team of abject failure that couldn't buy a win for months and stumbled over the safety line at the end parking the bus and boring the pants of any lover of pure football and don't reply with an insult, its my opion after watching every single game last season, I'm entitled to it and sticking to until I see improvement. Last night showed no signs of that ?.


5.) 28 Jul 2023 13:43:24

9.) 28 Jul 2023 20:49:19
Yes Balloons, we know you don't like Forest and hate watching the club be in the top 16 teams in the biggest league in the world. Anything else you'd like to depress us with?

So Grabban has a hip injury that's why he's been rubbish but how long as he had this injury he has only scored in two games in open play with no assists out of his last 25 games going back to the end of January, In the same period our out of form winger Joe Lolley as scored in four games and assisted in four games, its a stat that shows just how poor Grabban has been for months.

Enjoy Downthepub, Albir is worth a visit around 10euro in a taxi and a walk from their takes you to Altea, there was a sports bar there also ran by Forest supporters they had Forest trees stood outside, it was opposite the Albir garden resort.

Yates is the most consistent player we have, when Yates doesn't play we don't win, SC got it totally wrong with team selection and tactics and if it wasn't for the sending off we would have got trounced, when we won at Chelsea we played with three CB's so why change it, I just cannot see the reasoning behind it.

Disagree with MGW he should be dropped for the Man City game to make way for a stronger central midfield player he has been poor all season and shouldn't be an automatic choice.
