Right I've had a think about it and Burke's sale still makes no sense. 13mil is a lot of cash but such a short term view to sell now, greed is all I can think of. Promotion is worth 100 odd million and personally I think Burke would have made a big difference to our promotion push - that's why Leipzig paid the cash, he is absolute quality, power pace and skill he's got at his age is quality you don't stumble across too often. Fawaz is an out right liar and this is obviously not the first time. Way to go Fawaz, make another manager look like a complete twat by saying he has assurances and Burke won't be sold. Make another promising start to the season and feel good factor disappear instantly by selling a home grown talent who we've yet to see the best of in a Forest shirt. Worrying for the dressing room atmosphere, worrying for Montanier being undermined, I've been enjoying Montanier's brand of football and seems a thoroughly decent guy, but to be honest wouldn't blame him if he didn't want to work with Fawaz. Forest will not get promoted with Fawaz in charge, he does not have the ambition. What message does this send to the players. Fawaz needs to go and quickly, even if you think selling Burke is the right thing, the way Fawaz goes about his business dealings is pure poison going behind people's backs, disgusting behaviour he's done many a time. Bring back some decency to the club, had enough.

The owner gives our manager assurances our star players will be staying and in no time at all one has.

That undermines the manager, it does not do the team any good losing one of their best players, just as the manager is slowly getting things right this happens.

Success on the pitch can paper over the fianchal cracks, but when no success happens because of things like this the financial cracks appear larger than they are, and they appeared large enough before this.

The real crisis, you mean if Britt goes too? Can you not see it's not just Burke going that's riled me up, it's also the statement of lack of ambition this sets, the consistent lies and poor behaviour of our Chairman and the knock on effect to the players and staff. I would not be surprised if Britt went too now, I hope not. I'm calm and behind Forest always, but not behind Fawaz and every right to be angry.
