Nottingham Forest banter 10

Var lost the plot absolutely ridiculous.

13 Jan 2026 21:38:52
Think the whole nation will agree.

13 Jan 2026 21:45:00
See like two peas in a pod now you pair🤣🌳.

13 jan 2026 21:58:18
offside.

13 Jan 2026 21:25:30
Semenyo bought for 65m by Man City who are still accused of 115 breaches of FFP and they are still wanting Anderson for 80/ 100m!

Cheating persons.

Dear Edu
Like you, I don’t know too much about football other than goals win games. Seeing I’ve probably seen Forest more times than you have had tapas, I feel obliged to point out WE NEED A BLOODY STRIKER. Sort it out or sort your P45.

13 Jan 2026 21:24:19
We certainly know you don't know much froggy
Edu was a class player and I'd take the time to look who he bought to arsenal including artea
Made some tremendous signings
Raya
Calyfiori
Saliba
White
Trossard
Martnelli
Gabriel
Rice
Havertz
Timber
And loads more or can't you see any of that?

14 Jan 2026 06:30:20
Very happy to have a poll on here to see who knows more about football me or you. Perhaps the loser would then graciously never post again? You could stick to your beer drinking then and boring your so called friends to death and we could all breathe a huge sigh of relief.

14 Jan 2026 08:45:03
Edu s fault its all edus fault that's all you can come up with
There is far more to it than just edu, but you can't see past it
Many other factors
My mates don't moan in a pub and put bets on forest to lose 5 nil before a game and never will.

14 Jan 2026 09:26:52
I'm Sparticus 🤡🤡👍😁😁.

14 Jan 2026 12:05:54
@DTP cut the waffle and it’s either YES or NO to the poll. Simples.

14 Jan 2026 12:36:17
Hiw would that work?

14 Jan 2026 15:33:11
Get Ed to do a poll who knows more about football me or you over 7 days. Most votes survive. I’m an honorable bloke - you win I will
Leave the site no problem whatsoever.

14 Jan 2026 16:43:25
Have you not heard of Google redfrog?
How would edd know if either of was cheating?
What nonsense.

14 Jan 2026 19:26:58
NoI don't thunk it is all Edu's fault but he has done nothing at Forest that suggests he is of benefit to us. Hopefully I am proven wrong but that list DTP probably most of us on here know the players he signed were good players and any sporting director should of been able to persuade them to join arsenal on good wages he spent a good 400m on that list.

Signing players for forest is far different, my question is what has he got us for the 200m signings he has been involved with so far?

14 Jan 2026 20:03:57
To me monty, the problem goes back to last January when we needed to sign a couple of quality players and didn't
We don't have arsenal funds and because we had a tight knit squad and got into Europe needed at least six players, the players signed are all young who had a good seasons with their clubs, so haven't become bad players overnight
Chuck in three coaches with different ideas and coming from foreign countries, they probably wish they hadn't signed
Ad to that losing elanga and wood and that was our goals gone
To me we could sign a top striker and he still won't score goals unless we change tactics
Most other than ndoye not been given a chance.

14 Jan 2026 20:48:42
I do agree that the January was a missed opportunity, we did need to add a couple of players and that would of made a difference. As I said I don't blame any individual as we don't see any of the behind the scenes going on. But if we want to be successful everyone has to pull in the same direction and individual Ego's have to be put aside.

This season has been a massive dissapointmebt to everyone from the foundations built last year we were all believing we were finally looking like an organised club, let's hope we can get clear of relegation scrap and win the europa.

13 Jan 2026 20:47:57
Man city where charged with 115 counts in February 2023, nearly three years?
I for one think every supporter in every premier league ground should protest against it taking so long if ever they will come to any sort of conclusion?
They just carry on spending without a care?
Shall I put a protest about that on the upper tier Saturday?

13 Jan 2026 21:29:59
Depends how you're going to spell it mate.

13 Jan 2026 21:36:47
I'll miss the c out gazzi.

13 Jan 2026 21:39:05
I hope your spell checker is working ok, DTP.

13 Jan 2026 20:24:34
Garry Burtl3z legend has said he feels sorry for jesus feeding off scraps?
Could not agree more
Join the modern world of football dyche or do one.

13 Jan 2026 20:49:06
Or even birtles 🤣.

13 Jan 2026 20:55:25
I love the old players. Great memories but that's all they are games moved way on from them they wouldn't cope in a game nowadays. like you have said to posters loads of times games moved on I still don't rate Jesus same as Richardson.

13 Jan 2026 21:11:45
Jesus fed 5000 people with one basket of food that consisted of five loaves of bread and two fishes and still somehow had 12 baskets left over so he's got no excuse really.

13 Jan 2026 21:15:21
They have better idea than us skeggs
While Richardson?

13 Jan 2026 20:14:17
Anyone else think Anthony Gordon looks like a really crap drag queen? 🌳.

13 Jan 2026 20:47:31
Ru (ap) paul (ing).

{Ed's Note - Ed001 has posted a new article entitled, Matchday 21 - Quick Round Up

13 Jan 2026 19:21:41
Another good review Ed
I think Bournemouth will be hovering around the danger zone for the rest of the season and the loss of Semenyo is another example of them being a feeder club for the big boys ( like Solanke to Spurs and the lad who came to Liverpool who’s name I’ve forgotten ( Kurkez? )
Palace, as you say, are dropping like a stone and the loss of a Guehi or a Wharton in this window might expedite this?
I’m amazed how Martineli wasnt sent off.

A nasty piece of work who, back in the day ( and at a late stage in the game) might have received a bit of instant justice from the slow arriving Liverpool players.

{Ed001's Note - if Mac Allister wasn't so soft, he would have stopped him, as he was there but doing nothing. Then again, knowing that diving tit, he would probably have joined Bradley on the floor rather than tried to stop Martinelli.}

13 Jan 2026 19:56:00
Do you see anything in Hutchinson ed. that is worth 35 million I just don't know. he seems to be switched off a lot in the game like he doesn't know what he's supposed to be doing or do you think dyche isn't managing him properly.

{Ed001's Note - he is ok, but I just don't think he is good enough for Forest. He might develop into a player that is good enough but he needs a lot of work. Too weak for starters. He lacks understanding of when and where to run at the moment.}

13 Jan 2026 20:48:44
Exactly what I thought ed. but still only young chucked in at the deep end with a big price tag a shame destroys a lot of youngsters been better off staying at Ipswich.

{Ed001's Note - I agree, he should have stayed there and played regularly.}

13 Jan 2026 21:20:16
Careful Ed you’re taking about our EDU record signing there.
CARLO.

13 Jan 2026 12:15:03
If Man City want Anderson we should make them take McAtee back- both players to city plus £100m thanks very much. Anderson will go at some point, it’s just who we replace him with that concerns me.

13 Jan 2026 15:25:49
100 million for Ando and 40 million for McAtee. Compensation for lost wages. Plus a written statement apologising for ripping us off. 🌳.

13 Jan 2026 16:38:56
Hey, RedRobin, you are starting to sound like Trump with the BBC mate …. 😂😂😂.

13 Jan 2026 17:20:26
Just been to town, saw a pig flying down Hockney!
Honk Honk
CARLO.

13 Jan 2026 17:38:33
"Ya know what Stokey?
Thats really tremendous news, it really is"
🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸.

13 Jan 2026 17:58:17
Taremi been touted as a replacement for Kalimuemdo.
Hilarious 😂😂😂.

13 Jan 2026 17:58:37
🐖🐖🐖🐖🐖🐖🐖🐖🐖.

13 Jan 2026 18:11:58
I suppose we could sue them 🤣👍🌳.

13 Jan 2026 18:41:38
Taremi is a bit on the old side. Isn't he 35?

13 Jan 2026 18:42:21
No. Sorry. He's 33. Still a bit old though.

13 Jan 2026 19:23:20
Like Woody?
Bigly Rogie…….

13 Jan 2026 19:49:56
Alright Rodney?
Welcome Dave 99
Well someone had to say it?

13 Jan 2026 20:07:51
Where would Anderson fit in at man city?
They have rodri probably the best there is in his position?
Play them together?
Well that's no goals hardley straight away
Don't see hiw he would fit in personally?

13 Jan 2026 20:41:46
Just a rumbling at the moment.

14 Jan 2026 00:26:40
With man city's clout, it's not where Anderson will play in there team, it's making sure no other team gets him.

13 Jan 2026 09:48:13
Think we have made a major mistake letting Kalimuendo go on loan

Wood injured Awoniyi awful Jesus being flogged to death unless we help him out he’s going to get injured soon

Could play Hudson Odoi alongside side him but I think we need another 9 not the 33 year old from Olympiacos though! 😱.

13 Jan 2026 10:39:54
It’s like we are trying to get relegated or diplodychus is so inept he can’t get a tune from his instruments. As I say, sign Kiefer Moore he will fit the bill, unless we start scoring goals soon it’s tally ho PL hello ECL.

13 Jan 2026 10:46:27
Kali never stood a chance with Lump ball Dyche.
See how a decent manager get a tune out of him straight away. That's the first error of many while Captain clown is at the helm.

13 Jan 2026 12:16:59
Not often I agree, but all these players don't become bad ones overnight
Jesus will score goals if the ball is put in the right area
Wood wouldn't score with his back to goal playing as a target man either
We have to go back to playing out from the back and playing through midfield and not bypassing it.

13 Jan 2026 12:48:29
💤💤💤💤💤💤💤💤💤💤💤💤💤💤💤💤.

13 Jan 2026 13:47:07
🤣🤣🤣 stokey you even have to. do a chapter with emojis.

13 Jan 2026 13:54:36
Patience is a virtue - We have a plan its so obvious.

No team would rely on the 1 striker for the remainder of the season.

Would they?

13 Jan 2026 14:07:22
Dyche out edu out dtp out. stokeys book club out. 😁.

13 Jan 2026 14:21:15
A plan to get relegated?

13 Jan 2026 15:31:45
Sorry Skegs I was busy, just looking for somewhere to hang the other end of this noose to mate! …. 😵😵😵😵😂😂.

13 Jan 2026 19:14:21
Stokey, one thing you won't see next season at the city ground is Dyche, Woan and Stone
There is no foundation to build on
Foreign players find his tactics totally Foreign
It's basic to say the least
When you have players like Aina, Williams and murillo in defence that are capable of playing a ball plus can run with it, does Dyche ask them to. play aimless punts to jesus?
Then we have two england midfielders that can carry a ball and take it to the opposition?
But get bypassed?
Then a striker that's five ten trying to pluck balls put of the sky?
If your happy with that and can't see a problem with those tactics I feel sorry for you
Moving on Kaliamundo because according to you he didn't train well?, leaves us with just jesus for Dyche to run into the ground
Dyche started well, but has reverted to his old type and results are showing it
Any way marinakis will wield the axe in the summer Esther isn't a future under dyche.

13 Jan 2026 19:41:43
I actually know a couple of people close to me. that did that stokie. not a very good example mate. and not funny.

13 Jan 2026 21:37:06
I’m sorry for your loss Skegs, truly. But having dealt with several suicides by this method and been Coroners Officer on all these occasions ( including a young mother who hung her self from an upstairs landing for her kids to find her coming home from School) I’ve dealt with it my own way by ( forgive the phrase) gallows humour.


That’s just me and I make no apologies.
Anyway, I was talking about it in joking reference to myself but in reality I wouldn’t give you bas’ards the satisfaction…. 😂😂😂.

13 Jan 2026 21:38:46
DTP 🥱🥱.

13 Jan 2026 22:00:28
Did the mother have to listen to you on a police interview stokey. think I would of done exactly the same and I give no apologies 😁.

14 Jan 2026 10:42:32
Err Skegs, has anyone asked you for an apology? I certainly haven’t. It’s a childish and immature response even by your standards.
In view of your previous post about losing people close to you don’t you think your latest is a tad hypocritical and inconsistent?
Or are you just making it all up as you go along?

13 Jan 2026 07:39:27
{Ed's Note - Bolger3 has posted a new article entitled, Manchester United Still In A Cycle Of Poor Decision Making

13 Jan 2026 00:00:21
Never mind getting players in this January, we may well lose a couple, man city looks like going for Anderson and a few clubs seriously looking at Murillo, if we lose them two that 7 points cussion could evaporate quicker than the recent snow. This transfer window should be stopped, just causes disruption and takes the focus from certain player's to the job in hand.

13 Jan 2026 09:03:25
I'd like to think especially with Murillo he'd show some loyalty, he's developed with us from a boy with no experience into a full international. Also he seems like a great lad so I'd hope he wouldn't cause any ripples in the dressing room if we play hardball with prospective buyers.

Out of the two it's him i think we'd miss the most. Since Dyche has come in i don't think his style suits Ando and games have started to pass him by, probably down to the bypassing of midfield with "have it" tactics. 🌳.

13 Jan 2026 09:52:24
I’m not sure of your tactical analysis Red Robin but the loss of 2 of our core players this January, such as Ando and Murillo, would rip the heart out of the team ( especially with Wood out and MGW and Sels not reaching the heights of last season) such that I’d have to seriously revise our survival prospects…….

13 Jan 2026 10:31:12
Will City have any money left in their coffers after the swingeing fine we expect them to get soon. Well fairly soon. I emailed the Premier League yesterday about this! Still waiting.

13 Jan 2026 10:50:23
There is no heart in tge team and there's no loyalty in big money and football. Fact andos already had is head turned like mgw murillo lost is consistency like a lot. if they go they go. we move on. but that's the biggest problem edu will be replacing them with his shite.

13 Jan 2026 10:50:35
The only reason MGW and Ando have tailed off is because of the crap tactics. You don't need a midfield when tha ball gets lumped from the back to our small centre forward. Might as well put Warwick Davis up top.

13 Jan 2026 11:35:20
Midfield is bypassed by kicking it aimlessly up the pitch.

13 Jan 2026 12:06:29
Yep balloons i was making the same point about tactics, bypass our most creative players completely. 🌳.

13 Jan 2026 12:32:55
Anderson and Murillo will probably go in the summer and we should put a big price tag on their heads.

13 Jan 2026 12:50:11
Lost the will to live ……. 😵😵😵😵🥱🥱😂😂.

13 Jan 2026 14:09:09
You been going back through some of your comments then stokey 🤣😅 I do that halfway through one of yours 🤣.

13 Jan 2026 15:29:31
Surly we can't all be wrong?, we're all watching the same games and coming up with the same conclusions. Apart from the head of the snoozy book club. 😉🌳.

13 Jan 2026 15:37:10
It’s the constant repetition that kills you Skeggs………. it’s worse than water boarding mate …. 😵😵😵💤💤💤💤.

13 Jan 2026 16:50:31
Many would agree that Dyche's style is considered boring and predictable. His approach involves launching high balls into the opposition's half, hoping for an attempt on goal from a lonesome Striker.
I reckon Haaland would struggle to get a goal?
I am concerned that if Dyche does not adjust his playing style, we may find ourselves in a relegation battle.

13 Jan 2026 17:40:13
Oh God, these Dyche Ball diplodocus posts are spreading and starting to infect everyone ……. 😂😂.

13 Jan 2026 18:13:49
It is cut and paste Stokey, the shift+insert keys must be getting worn by now.

Must be time for some Stokey jokes to lighten the mood?

12 Jan 2026 18:39:14
Xabi Alonso anyone?

12 Jan 2026 19:06:43
He’s a bit old to get a game in our midfield at 44 mate and his sell on price would be negligible……. 😂😂😂😂😂
Seriously, why would he ever come to a basket case of a club like ours? He wouldn’t have the last say on transfers in or out so he’d fall at the first hurdle.


Finally, we have an excellent manager at the helm so theirs no vacancy
Apart from that, a good shout mate! 😂😂😂😂🙄🙄.

12 Jan 2026 19:45:20
He wouldn't have had a say at Madrid either.

12 Jan 2026 21:58:02
Enrique will be looking for a job soon based on their performance tonight, PSG look a shadow of two seasons ago.

13 Jan 2026 09:57:28
I’d be amazed if elite managers like Alonso and Enrique didn’t have the final say on transfers DTP ( like Slot, Arteta, Pep ). What do you think Ed 1? You are usually extremely knowledgeable on these matters mate?

{Ed001's Note - Alonso did at Leverkusen, but not at Madrid. He barely had any control at all, the players run that club. Enrique has some say, but not really final say, that comes from the ownership there, they will mediate any dispute between SD (or whatever they term them at PSG) and Enrique over signings.}

13 Jan 2026 11:20:57
He definitely won't be coming to Forest.

13 Jan 2026 11:14:33
He'll never come to Forest.

13 Jan 2026 13:00:08
Thanks Ed, very interesting and also re assuring mate that we are not the only club run by loonies!
The more I think about it, the more I think football clubs ( and their fans) are like dysfunctional families, with the way they operate. The love is there but there’s infighting, factions, squabbling, ups and downs.

I’m reminded of ( the famously grumpy but brilliant) poet Philip Larkin in the final verse of “ This Be The Verse”……”
“Man hands on misery to man.
It deepens like a coastal shelf.
Get out as early as you can,
And don’t have any kids yourself”….
😂😂😂🤔🤔😉😉.

{Ed001's Note - the problem is that the best way to get things done is a dictatorship but one person deciding everything is incredibly dangerous. If there is more than one person involved in the decision making process, at some point it always ends in bickering and rancour.}

13 Jan 2026 13:58:04
We probably couldn't entice the League One managers like Nigel, never mind Champions league managers.

13 Jan 2026 16:36:23
Again an interesting point Ed. Playing devils advocate though, you may remember that Forest carried on being run by a committee of local worthies for over a century. It was a committee that appointed Cloughie and put up with his foibles for 18 years and unprecedented success……
The King James Bible, translated into English and re written by a committee is an enduring classic and best seller now into its 5th century….

just saying ….

{Ed001's Note - I think Clough was the one running the club though then.}

13 Jan 2026 17:58:11
Yep edd cloghie ran the club and the postmaster was a bit dodgy.
Lits of backhanders back in those days.
