A nice stroll with the dog on my day off 10 mins from my bungalow this is the life 😁

17 Aug 2026 10:25:23
🎼🎶 Skegness Beach. O mist rolling in from the sea, my recliner is waiting for me there, O Skeggy Beach. 🎶🤣

17 Aug 2026 10:40:46
Stella by the sea. 🌊 🍺 🍻 😁

17 Aug 2026 17:28:12
Never complain about pictures of flowers and pink flamingos, especially after posting this. 🌳

17 Aug 2026 17:38:25
Are you missing the pink flamingos and flowers, rrh. 😁

17 Aug 2026 18:43:04
Nah not particularly, but this is a football banter site, I'm pretty sure pictures of gypsy campsites have nothing to do with the game we all love. 🌳

17 Aug 2026 18:59:12
Football banter site when it suits you rrh.and there's nothing wrong with gypsy campsites rrh.have you finished your barbies doll house extension yet pal 😁

17 Aug 2026 19:31:54
Yep and it suits me today👍. Don't you have donkeys to feed and Grannies to fleece? 🌳

18 Aug 2026 10:21:08
Now, let's not get catty, RRH. I might lose all respect for the younger generation on here, mate. 😁😁 (joking aside).

18 Aug 2026 10:46:29
Hey, its not catty, its the truth, Skegs sells donkey rides on the beach, in the evenings he's a bingo caller, thought everyone knew that. 🌳

18 Aug 2026 11:24:00
I thought you told me he was working as a waitress in a cocktail bar? 😂😂😂😂😂

18 Aug 2026 11:35:52
That's on special Monday nights. Come on, Stokey, keep up. 🌳

18 Aug 2026 11:57:09
. 😂😂😂😂😂

18 Aug 2026 13:33:28
😁😁😁😁👋👋👋👋 My no 1 and now no 2 fan the Skeggy groupies. 😍😍🤣🤣

18 Aug 2026 14:28:34
The 'Butlins Bandit' and his groupies, kinda has a ring to it. 🌳

18 Aug 2026 14:39:16
You know, I love ya, Skegs. Ever since I found out about that sleeve you had done, I've tried my hardest to be just like you. I've even started buying those Viagra eye drops, just to look hard. 🌳

18 Aug 2026 15:18:14
I have a nice hat and matching t-shirt for you both, says we love Skegsjay. Done at good old Ingoldmells Market, they should go well with your skirts and high heels. 😁

18 Aug 2026 15:40:41
. 😁😁😁 👋👋👋

18 Aug 2026 16:01:50
Fellow readers,
Please check point 2 of my Skeggs post summary above.
Tedious and predictable, as always. 😴😴💤💤💤

18 Aug 2026 16:02:53
Superb, Skegs, thanks for thinking of us. 👍🌳

18 Aug 2026 16:40:08
Not just thinking of us, RRH, fantasising if you ask me, mate. 😂😂😂

18 Aug 2026 16:50:51
God only knows what goes through his mind amongst those lonely Sandhills. 😂😂😂

18 Aug 2026 16:57:25
Hey up, it's Gepetto and Pinicchio. I will let you decide who I think is who. 🤣🤣🤣

18 Aug 2026 17:06:28
🤣 Skegs, I don't even know who they are. 🤣

18 Aug 2026 17:16:38
Don't panic, rrh, you're not Pinocchio. 🤣🤣

18 Aug 2026 17:18:58
Skeggs doesn't either, the way he's spelt their names. 😂😂😂😂

18 Aug 2026 17:22:12
Hey up, Pinocchio, your nose is growing again. 🤣🤣

18 Aug 2026 17:31:54
🤣 I guessed that's who he meant. I have to admit, this morning, whilst using said eye drops, it did drip on my nose and my bottom lip. Now I look like Katie Price. 😭🌳

18 Aug 2026 17:27:14
All the lies you’ve told Rattty your nose would be a hazard to shipping, mate, as I demonstrated yesterday. You can’t even remember what you’ve posted 😂😂😂😂🤥🤥🤥

18 Aug 2026 18:11:56
Ok Pinocchio. 😁

18 Aug 2026 18:26:53
🐀🤥 I bet you were a big fan of Mirecombe and Wose back in the day, weren't you, Skaggs?. 😁

18 Aug 2026 18:33:23
You secretly love me, don't you, Stokie. I hope you're not boiling a rabbit in the pan. My no 1 fan. 😍😍

18 Aug 2026 19:19:50
Point 2 yet again, Ratty. Try and vary it a bit with "Living the Glasner dream", just by way of a bit of variety, mate. It's like a mantra. 😴😴😴💤💤🐀🐀

17 Aug 2026 08:36:55.
It's starting to look like clubs are holding out for a big fee until as late as possible for the players we want.

If Bergvall (£60M) is above Fofana (£15M) on our list, then it's looking risky waiting for Tottenham to take a lower fee. Is it worth the risk of Fofana walking away while they wait until likely deadline day?

Similar for strikers. Solanki and Delap are both players who could do well, but they are asking silly money.

Can we afford to play brinkmanship until the closing days of the window?

On the RWB, if the best players are not available, could we go with Netz, Williams, Aina, Eric Da Costa Moreira (who has looked good as an attacking RWB) and backup from Ndoye or others...

We still have Savona and Omar "It isn't broken" Richards but I don't think they are going to fit into the squad.

17 Aug 2026 11:14:56
Oh, and does Caiabano fit an Og system? He's back in December if we get injuries.

17 Aug 2026 08:13:01
Stick to football lads, it's the big kick off in 5 days time. I cant believe what ive just read. Are you that paranoid about Skegs, Stokie you got Ed33 hunting through posts ( witness for the prosecution) to prove a point that was nothing to do with football. Come children really.

17 Aug 2026 09:01:15
It took me around 5 minutes, Larry. One of the easier cases I've had to prove over the years, mate. I can see why you want to move on, as your mate has been found out.
As I've mentioned before, I won't accept attacks on my honesty and integrity from anyone, least of all you two jokers.


A simple apology will suffice. I'm more than happy to talk about football.

17 Aug 2026 09:03:26
What do you reckon, Larry, wait for a price drop on the younger Bergvall or go for Fofana now?

17 Aug 2026 09:15:25
Go for Fofana, Cyclist. Proven, a quarter of the price & 27 aint old. Leaves more money for a decent striker. 👍

17 Aug 2026 09:07:41
By the way, I’m very grateful for Ed’s part in exposing your mate but he didn’t have to go.

"Hunting" anywhere as I found and sent the exact date, time ( to the second) and place to look. I know you two don’t care a jot about your reputation and integrity which is understandable, but I do.
Thanks again Ed.

17 Aug 2026 09:17:43
Just let it go, Stokie, you'll make yourself ill, mate. Tell me about your thoughts, Fofana or Bervall.

17 Aug 2026 09:23:19
Fofana all day long for me. We need a player who can play now, not that might come on and be better in a few years.

17 Aug 2026 10:55:03
I agree with both of you. Fofana is a much better option. Spurs are stringing us along. If they are asking for £60M, they don't want to sell.

17 Aug 2026 11:12:14
Fofana all day long, Cyclist. More than 200 appearances for AS Monaco and AC Milan, at least he's proven. And, price wise, a bargain imo. 🌳

17 Aug 2026 08:12:19
Good morning to all! With the send off that Taiwo got before the game on Sunday, I think the dressing room will be a quieter place! Loved by the fans, loved by his team mates, loved by his family!

Have a great Sky Blue season Taiwo, but not to great ok!

17 Aug 2026 07:39:10
{Ed's Note - Goram_no1 has posted a new article entitled, Why Rangers Should Stay Patient With McInnes

16 Aug 2026 17:34:59.
Luca Netz different class today. Has to start at LWB against Leeds, simple as; scored one, made 1. Play Williams in his natural position at RWB

Schlager and Dominguez looked good together as well.

16 Aug 2026 18:13:26
Munmad just leave it to the man that knows best glasner.i mean let's be honest you've never been right yet.

16 Aug 2026 18:34:53
Skeggs,
Was there really any call for that, mate???.
🤷‍♂️

16 Aug 2026 18:38:26
Good shout, Munmad. 👍🌳

16 Aug 2026 18:40:30
Well, exactly my thought, Rogie. Bizarre.

16 Aug 2026 18:45:53
Just being honest, Rogie. Nothing wrong with that. It's a fact. 😁

16 Aug 2026 18:33:11
Trolling again recliner boy it must be really boring in Skegmess

16 Aug 2026 19:00:37
Living the Glasner Mr M dream boys. 😁

16 Aug 2026 20:29:22
"Living the Glasner dream then?"
Oh right....
🙄

16 Aug 2026 20:40:31
His P45 will be incoming soon enough...

16 Aug 2026 20:46:05
Welcome back 2 Stars.

16 Aug 2026 20:47:49
Still think we should sell "Kanthitawindow".

17 Aug 2026 08:38:23
Yes everyone leave it to Glasner and nobody post an opinion about the team. This isn't a football banter site, it's just for throwing pointless barbs at people. 😆

18 Aug 2026 10:11:54
Barbs cannot, by definition, be pointless, Cyclist... sorry, mate, couldn't resist. 😁

16 Aug 2026 16:14:55
Tiawo was a player low on confidence when he fist came but then saved us with his goals from relegation. Unfortunately had injuries and a near fatal altercation with a goal post. I don’t think anyone will forget that. One of my memories was that amazing dribble from near the half way line to score. He was also more than an old fashioned centre forward. He could hold up the ball and challenge anyone around the box. Today when his fellow players said goodbye you could see how much esteem they hold for him. In these times when money talks very loudly in a player's ear, Tiawo never missed an opportunity to tell you of his personal beliefs and what motivates him.

Now Og may have told him where he might be in the pecking order should a new striker arrive - which I expect. Coventry make an offer and the player says he wants to go and that’s it. I don’t think Og wanted necessarily to sell him but was honest with Tiawo about his chances of starting a game. I think
I agree with Jesus’s weak points but Og puts him higher than Tiawo who also seems below Kalimendo and Wood. To me the fact Tiawo has signed for another club means we have a replacement coming soon. On this site it appears to be Delap or Solanke but we will see. I also wish Tiawo the best in his future career.

17 Aug 2026 08:50:08
Glasney is just looking to bring on players for a certain system. Also, Taiwo isn't as versatile as Jesus, who can also play as a second number 10.

People forget, you can't have every player in the squad, even if you want to keep them.

If Fofana or Bergvall come in, we have replaced Ando with 2 players... Someone is going to miss out. We have brought in Diamonde. Who is leaving from the defenders? Savona is over 21, I think, so he can't be in the "youth" player cohort like Abbott?

People act like we can bring in players and keep the others...

If we sign a MF, RWB and striker:

In: Diamonde, SchhhhhhLager, Bender, RWB, MF2, Striker

Out: Taiwo, Ortega, Boly, Lucca, Taiwo, Anderson.

We had to let someone go if we were signing a new striker, I think.

Does anyone really think we don't need a new striker? Don't kid yourself. Wood is not going to play many games on the evidence of last season.

16 Aug 2026 14:49:37
First half of the Brest game like watching 3rd Division football. Poor standard. What is the point in playing Abbott and Morata at the centre of defence - they would get ripped apart in every Premier League game. Netz and Schlager look decent in flashes. Kalimuendo way below what is required of a Premier League striker.

16 Aug 2026 15:41:57
Switched it off at half time, rhr. Unwatchable. Total garbage.
I see Andersons got off to a flyer. 😃 😀 😄

16 Aug 2026 15:46:33
Shop window rhr, a few of them want moving on before season starts.

16 Aug 2026 15:51:57
Yes, Larry, he'll be out of his depth at City. Won't take long for City fans to get on his back if he doesn't play well.

16 Aug 2026 15:57:02
I certainly hope he succeeds. Great lad he is.

16 Aug 2026 16:10:25
Shame the fans couldn't see the First Team in action. Many could not afford a Premier match ticket or get one. But then, I guess, it's best not to risk your best in a last pre-season game. Brest were barely better than watching paint dry.

17 Aug 2026 10:58:26
I hope Ando fails. I don't want to see the cheats at City doing well.

17 Aug 2026 12:16:05
A bit small minded as regards Ando, but there you go...
I take it you've never turned down a wage increase or promotion then, Cyclist?

16 Aug 2026 10:30:04
Looking forward to watching the game this afternoon (with an eye on Notts CCC in the semi finals of the Metro 50 overs competition against Leicestershire).
OG’s team selection will be a good clue as to his starting 11 for Leeds. I’m intrigued by whether Netz supplants Aina at wing back for example.

16 Aug 2026 13:30:39
I've just heard on Sky. None of the first team will be in the squad today! Og is playing the second string and has said they are playing for their futures at Forest!

16 Aug 2026 14:51:04
Well, it's half time. Can't take anymore of this, even though it's 2-0. It's got about as much content as one of Stokies Mega word salads. 😃

16 Aug 2026 17:43:36
I'm immensely gratified, Larry, that I'm living rent free in your head still, even with a game in progress.
Why don't you block me like Skeggs managed to do for all of 5 days? 😂😂😂

16 Aug 2026 18:47:59
Hang on, Stokey, you posted you were gonna block them?
You want your rights again?

16 Aug 2026 19:42:53
That's right, Bowie. But Stokie seems to forget on purpose when it suits him.

16 Aug 2026 19:54:38
I've never blocked anybody on here, Bowie? Genuinely, I'm sure you are confusing me with someone else. I don't actually know how to block anybody, because it's never occurred to me to do it, mate. Skeggs, I'm still waiting for that written statement you mentioned.

Big on opinion, short on facts as usual, my friend. As I used to say to DTP, I'm so glad not to be following any of you lot onto the witness box at Crown Court...

16 Aug 2026 20:14:21
My no1 fan. 🥰🥰

16 Aug 2026 20:14:31
I'm sure you said it stokey, but my apologies if it's wrong ? Eds can you prove me wrong.

{Ed033's Note - Recently, Stokey had as part of a post to Larry; "Why don’t you block me like Skeggs managed to do for all of 5 days".

16 Aug 2026 21:46:30
To be honest, gents, does it matter? It's all getting catty once again, isn't it? 🙄

16 Aug 2026 21:02:32
Thank you for your time ED33 and big apologies stokey. Hands up.

16 Aug 2026 21:28:44
Ed 33 Would you please publish Skeggs post from 1st August at 10. 16 and 34 seconds. I believe its a reply to Ripley
Sorry to trouble you but it should clear up this blocking posts controversy mate.

{Ed033's Note -

"01 Aug 2026 10:16:34
Ripley thats your opinion not mine.and as for stokies comments I don't see them.all I see under stokie is text hidden .its great for the eyes and the shortist comments ive ever seen from him 😁 anybody who doesn't like my comments try it .it really does put a smile back on your face.anyway we love glasner and Mr m uredddssss uredddssss"

16 Aug 2026 22:39:50
Ed 33, I'm not going to give you times dates call you up as a witness.🤣🤣 when I blocked mr stokie and I told him so did he still carry on commenting and calling me through the whole 5 days I blocked him. yes he did fact my no.1 fan. 🥰

17 Aug 2026 00:35:23
I have to congratulate you guys, taking it to a whole new level, unfortunately not a high one. Dragging Eds into the argument to prove those stupid points right...or wrong.
Is it any wonder we don't get new posters regularly when you guys are behaving like this? Now i was always taught to respect my elders, but you lot have definitely gone down in my estimations.


From probably the only poster under 50 here, apart from peddling Pete (Cyclist) i think at least.

17 Aug 2026 08:40:31
As far as I'm concerned, Rrh, so let's move on. Onwards and upwards for next week, uredddssss. 😁

17 Aug 2026 08:55:59
As far as I'm concerned, it's done. So, like I say, let's move forward with the footie.

17 Aug 2026 08:56:03
Thank Ed. Skeggs I’m more than happy to move onto football. A simple apology for your unwarranted and unnecessary attack on my integrity posted just after Bowie’s light hearted comment at 19.42,yesterday will suffice. “Stokie seems to forget on purpose when it suits him”.
But I suspect that, unlike Bowie, you will not be man enough to do that, will you?

17 Aug 2026 10:43:06
An apology for what, Stokie? Integrity. 🤣 Next you will be asking for a duel at 10 paces at sunrise. Like I said, just move on.

17 Aug 2026 11:09:01
Just as I expected Skeggs. Just shows what sort of a man you are. I leave others on here to draw their own conclusions as to someone who is unable to admit they’ve got it wrong even when they’ve been unequivocally caught out.


Compared with the good humour, grace and dignity of Bowie you are nothing but a scurrilous lying rat ( SLR for short). You are beneath contempt.

17 Aug 2026 11:44:12
Thank you, that is a great compliment coming from you, my friend. 😁 And, if you knew me, Stokie, you would know I don't give a damn what anybody thinks about me. I will just smile and wave. So again, let's just move on.

17 Aug 2026 12:22:02
I’m not surprised that you have no concept of integrity. You should also havr listened to your history teacher Skeggs. A duel at ten paces was only available to the upper classes mate,. For gentlemen of honour, You are certainly no gentleman and without doubt have no honour. As I said SLR …..

16 Aug 2026 10:29:39
Sorry to see Taiwo go, nice chap and his past end of season goals kept us in the Premier League - he should have been given another chance when fully fit. It's Jesus who should go - a striker who can't run, isn't quick enough for the Premier League, can't score goals hence or relegation battle last season and who hasn't performed again in pre-season (I've actually watched the preseason games rather than just reading Glapson's misleading reports).

Fed up of paying to watch a player who is clearly not good enough - Glazer will soon see when competitive PL games start. We need a striker.

16 Aug 2026 11:16:50
Just for those who choose to forget Taiwo's immense contribution to our club and disrespect him...
Played 103 games (13 as sub)
Scored 23 goals
Assists 5
Good luck for the future and keep smiling. The Buddhists say don't worry when things don't go the way you hoped. It just shows the gods are happy because they are playing games with us. 👍👍

16 Aug 2026 11:34:30
Rhr, with you on letting the wrong striker go, although I'd say it is probably Woody who should have gone, but heyho.
It's not just Taiwo's likable nature or his goals we'll miss; the lad literally almost died for us. I really hope he keeps himself fit and has a good season. It may be for another team, but the lad deserves it. 🌳

16 Aug 2026 11:41:18
Physio bench 103 visits (103 as most injured).
21 Goals over 4 seasons (Av 5 a season).
Absolutely useless stats. 17 million is robbery with violence. Thanks, Frankie boy. 😃 😀 😄

16 Aug 2026 11:35:48
Stokey, those who disrespect him know nothing about football, simple as that. 🌳

16 Aug 2026 11:50:28
🤣🤣 Larry, he had more sick days than Gloria Hunniford had holidays. 🤣🤣

16 Aug 2026 12:05:37
To me, to you. 🌳

16 Aug 2026 12:24:06
What's up rrh, you missing dtp. 🤣🤣

16 Aug 2026 12:27:53
RRH, it's not just football that Paul and Barry know nothing about, mate. Though, in fairness, 1st class honours degree in attention seeking.

16 Aug 2026 12:25:14
Says the man who can’t get his arse off his recliner to get himself a glass of water 😂😂😂😂

16 Aug 2026 12:51:36
Actually, after reading the Chuckle brothers stuff on here, RRH, I've realised that's one thing me and Taiwo have in common, mate. Both ended up in a coma after coming into contact with a post....... 😂😂😂 💤💤 😴😴

16 Aug 2026 13:09:29
Hope I'm not disturbing a good book, Stokie. I've become your best read, haven't I, pal. 🤣🤣🤣

16 Aug 2026 13:23:42
If we want to go up a level, Taiwo wasn't good enough. Jesus is improving, and is decent.

We do need another striker, as Woody won't stay fit for 38 games - no way.

16 Aug 2026 13:26:00
Looks like we're starting the game with a few for the shop window.

16 Aug 2026 12:46:29
The chuckle brothers strike again.
The dynamic duo are about as funny as crabs with a dose of the run's!
Awonyi has served us well, hopefully he doesn't score goals against us.🤔🤣

16 Aug 2026 13:20:54
I'm your favourite author. You love reading and replying to all my comments so sweet never had a fan before.not bad though hey for someone who knows nothing 🤣🤣🤣

16 Aug 2026 14:00:38
Ripley, the man who disappeared after our new signing. The one you slated Mr M for not getting him in for Glasner. Think you owe Mr M a big slice of humble pie, we're waiting. 🤣🤣🤣

16 Aug 2026 14:48:43
Humble pie!
Not at all.
One significant signing does not complete Forest.
I stand by my point regarding Marinakis.
If you believe we rely on Jesus and Wood to get goals, you are more delusional than I first thought.

😂
You relish in putting Awoniyi down, and have the audacity to say I should be eating pie.
Go and take a ride on Skeg Beach with Larry.

16 Aug 2026 15:56:11
Striker and midfielder on way in next week, then Mr M will want cream with that slice of humble pie, Ripley. 🤣🤣

16 Aug 2026 17:38:59
Stokey Recliner Boy and Larry the Ram only have one brain cell between them and they live in Skegmess which kind of proves my point

16 Aug 2026 17:49:19
Skeggs is now suffering with the delusion that he’s a great and interesting writer. Ripley, try and keep him posting mate whilst I’m ringing the Community Mental Health team.
Tell him he’s the new Dickens ( rather than Dick Head)……..😂😂😂

16 Aug 2026 17:56:45
Skeggs, in answer to your question mate, I do like reading your posts because you do confirm my long held belief that Care in the Community doesn’t work.
On a personal level, no matter what happens in my life I can take daily consolidation from your posts that I’m not living yours ….
😂😂

16 Aug 2026 18:12:10
Stokie, you're infatuated with me, pal. I'm now your no1 read, I'm loving it. 😁

16 Aug 2026 18:35:46
Sobering thought. 😱

16 Aug 2026 18:45:40
I’m just replying to your increasely delusional posts as is polite. I do feel like the poor chap on a bus when the nutter gets on and decides to sit next to him mate ……😂😂😂

16 Aug 2026 19:44:07
Like I said, my no1 fan. 🥰 🤣🤣🤣

16 Aug 2026 19:59:34
This is getting worrying... It's not just DDS, it's much worse than I thought....
😂 😂 😂

16 Aug 2026 20:14:51
When I was a probationary PC, I was tasked with having to sit with a man who was delusional to the extent that he believed a famous newsreader on his TV (I think it was Reginald Bosanquet, so you can tell how long ago it was) had told him to chuck a brick through his neighbour's window, which he did. Whilst waiting for a couple of hours for the doctor to arrive and section him under the MHA, this poor chap told me at length and in great detail about all the other things Mr Bosanquet had told him to do.

It was a long list, and he'd carefully written it down.
By the time the good doctor arrived, I wasn't sure about Reg or the BBC at all. I gave the list to the doctor, and the man was never seen or heard of again. Much to the relief of the neighbour and the whole street.
Skeggs, it's not too late to get help, mate. For both of us. 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂

16 Aug 2026 20:53:23
All that explanation and typing for me stokie.my no1 fan 🥰 i dont need help pal maybe look back at your comments to me all your replys and name calling pal.and the fact you told dtp you had better things to do with your time.thats a fact to maybe just maybe my PC friend your the one that needs help.🤣🤣🤣

17 Aug 2026 14:27:53
There you go again Skeggs “ All that explanation and typing for me, Stokie my number one fan”
It was neither an explanation or for you mate, it was for general consumption under the heading “My experiences with the mentally ill”.

On reflection, perhaps you are included in that general category…..
I can always tell when you’ve lost it….. your punctuation goes to pot and it becomes a stream of consciousness rage ….. it’s a dead giveaway and very amusing …….😂😂😂
