Saw Patrick Bamford parking his range rover in main stand car park before today's game. Must have been impressed with what he saw. If he came to us I don't know how he'd get in our team at the moment as we are on fire up front. COYR

Yes he was in players lounge ( Crossbar ) talking to lascelles

I'm responding to my own post because some fellow readers of this site have questioned the credibility by touching the 'unbelievable' tag. I know this is a rumour site guys but Bamford was 100% definitely watching our game today!


3.) 23 Aug 2014
He was and sat about 4 rows in front of me in the main stand

Straight into the youth team, where he started :)

What will Pearce do with a full squad of fit players? I guess Cohen will go back to left back when Lansbury is fit, will Vaughan play? Do we need Bamford?

Hey Brinsley Red, I would not worry about the 'unbelievables' as I have often wondered about them myself. I can only assume they come up for fresh air from the bottom of the pond. oops

Don't think we need him, who would you drop to accommodate him?


8.) 23 Aug 2014
Better option than blackstock for me. Would be good signing on a seasons loan. Has a pretty decent scoring record for a youth team player!


9.) 23 Aug 2014
We still need more players, another midfielder and a striker! It's a long season, there will be injuries ans suspensions, and fatigue! Need a bit more depth.

What's the crack with lars the big Dutch man is he any good, don't think we need Bamford a bench warmer unless Chelsea are paying his wages and could do a job for cup match's became the front two are a 100%


11.) 24 Aug 2014
Tyler walker forget bamford get one of our own up front who's hungry. Whatever problems bamford had with billy he didn't want to play for us so bye bye as far as I'm concerned


12.) 24 Aug 2014
Marko99. We don't need any more midfielders or strikers. In midfield we have depth. As CMs, we have: Reid, lansbury, vaghan, Osborn, Cohen, mancienne can play there, leigertwood, German guy, McLaughlin. As wingers, we have: Antonio, Paterson, Burke, McLaughlin, fryatt can play there, we still have abdoun if all fails!


13.) 24 Aug 2014
Chelsea will loan him out, but they will want him to be playing regular to get experience. We will never be able to offer him a regular place in our team, and He isn't going to come to warm the bench.

He has been told that he is 4th choice after Torres, so if Torres leaves.

We don't need him


16.) 24 Aug 2014
Stuart hinted in the post that he wanted him so I wouldn't worry about it. If he can afford him and he wants to come he'll come.

We only really have three strikers and another is a must over the course of the season.
I was thinking I'd of subbed at least one of britt or fryatt yesterday. We could of had more but britt looked a bit lazy when chasing their keeper.


17.) 24 Aug 2014
And would be 4th choice at Forest behind Assambolonga, Fryatt and Veldwijk.


18.) 24 Aug 2014
I agree with Ryan, let's bring through young Tyler, at least he is committed to Forest. We have Dex coming back and Ok he has not scored since he signed that long contract, but could be good coming off the bench. There is also big lars, once adjusted could be frightening! Bamford may have just been catching up with friends, but sorry he had the chance to play first team football with Forest, if he had been patient. He has burnt that bridge, I do hold a grudge and I can be bitter when it comes to turncoats, just look at McGeady and McCarthy!


19.) 24 Aug 2014
I would rather we develop and increase the value of Forest players not Chelsea ones. Blackstock will be worthless in the transfer market without games.

Same goes for Jamaal. I'd prefer to develop our own players if we can so he's good cover but wel down the pecking order now for me.


20.) 25 Aug 2014
Britt looked lazy because he didn't chase down the keeper like a headless chicken you don't want your striker offside because he's just chased the keeper down?


21.) 25 Aug 2014
99. 9% of the time it doesn't pay off to chase a keeper, most keepers have composure, IMO it's better to stick to the law of averages and just pressure the keeper if he's taking his time but don't go too far otherwise you are a player down when it comes to the next phase. Just stick to marking short passes because long ones are less accurate.


22.) 25 Aug 2014
Do think need a striker and Bamford can also play wide so would give us that option too, get him on loan until January would be pretty good as will give Dex time to get fitness up to level again, think every other position is sorted.
