Arumour going round is that Liverpool want Forest target, Omar Marmoush.
Marmoush has 9 goals and 6 assists in the Bundesliga this season. Can we still land him in the summer window with the promise of first team football?
1.) 15 Oct 2024 22:37:53
If the scousers go in for him then he'll go there. They can offer him more money than we can.
2.) 12 Nov 2024 17:58:33
Thing is he's got to lot better chance of playing of showing himself off at the city ground.

Rumour in Sport Witness: "The private plane to take Giménez to the UK is waiting at Rotterdam Airport. He should soon travel to England to carry out the transfer formalities with Nottingham Forest.
Santiago Giménez is thought to be happy with the deal. "

Hammers News website: "West Ham are reportedly ‘closing on two signings’ but James Ward-Prowse could join Nottingham Forest before deadline. "
26 Aug 2024 14:00:08
According to transfer expert Pete O’Rourke, the Reds are now keen to sign West Ham star James Ward-Prowse.
Another rumour to throw into the mix.
1.) 26 Aug 2024 18:33:12
Not sure we need another CM but with Danilo out for a long while maybe a loan til Jan be useful.

Ludicrous rumour: Confusion over whether player is signing for Nottingham Forest or Olympiacos in €15m deal
Apparently Carago has either signed for Forest or Olympiacos. Unreal.
1.) 24 Aug 2024 12:17:29
Who is Carago?
2.) 24 Aug 2024 12:37:32
Another multi club player we have or don't have or may have oh I don't know who knows. Who'd be a Forest fan.
3.) 24 Aug 2024 14:20:52
David Carmo?
4.) 24 Aug 2024 16:14:08
Carmo yes. One report says Olympiacos and the other says Forest signed him. How many clubs can you own before it get confusing even for the journalists?
5.) 24 Aug 2024 19:05:27
That might be the whole point. Confuse as many as possible then you can do things without them even noticing. Because they're so preoccupied with the initial confusion they won't be aware of your other actions. Muddy the waters. Smoke n mirrors. Confuse the masses. Devious buggers.
6.) 24 Aug 2024 20:35:43
Maybe both carmo and the new Zealand lad are really rated by forest but the club want to see them play games under the microscope?
And get some playing time?
Mr m is a olympiacos fan at the end of the day, but he knows forest and the premier is a bigger fish.

“Centre back travelling tonight to sign five-year deal. ”
Chelsea do this stuff all the time. Half the players in Europe are on their books and their feeder teams pay most of the wages in loan deals.
20 Aug 2024 11:35:48
Runour: Matt Targett is a target.
Targett from Newcastle is a loan target for the left back slot. Apparently the Geordies paid £15M (in 2022) for him but he had injury problems last season.
Does anyone know whether he is a good player?
1.) 20 Aug 2024 12:19:30
I can't remember much of him because he's hardly played much over the last couple of seasons. A Geordie friend has said he's always been reliable when he has played. Apparently, he got Player of the Season at Villa one season.
2.) 20 Aug 2024 13:18:44
Bang average.
Every player we sign seems to be in the £15m bracket ?.
3.) 20 Aug 2024 15:00:58
Injury problems? Hmmm.
4.) 21 Aug 2024 18:19:34
Morena signing on loan, much better option.

If you were a football coach, Is there a fan here who wouldn't play your fastest player (s) on a massive pitch like Wembley has?
Awoniyi and Elanga both have the pace to make the most of a huge pitch.
1.) 28 Apr 2025 11:26:49
The myth of pitch size.
105 meters by 70 meters (City ground)
105 meters by 68 meters (Wembley)
Give it a rest, we were beaten by a more experienced and wealthy side.
2.) 28 Apr 2025 18:07:04
Yes, we have a big pitch too. Elanga loves it. It isn't a myth at all. Strange comment.
3.) 28 Apr 2025 18:09:25
Don't know what other fans think, but I doubt it's a coincidence that when Awoniyi was fit, confident and in the side, our/ his performances at home kept us up the other season.
Pace and a large pitch definitely look like a match.
4.) 28 Apr 2025 18:58:18
And going by your first comment all pitches are "massive" ?.
5.) 28 Apr 2025 19:06:26
Often reading on here I'd love to see half the posters moaning about Nunos selections/ tactics do a better job. As I've said before, we're punching well above our weight with 9-13 good players, those players unfortunately aren't robots and need resting, especially our two wide speed merchants. Its no coincidence that wide players have hamstring issues. Explosive power=injuries.
6.) 28 Apr 2025 20:57:37
All pitches aren't the same size.
7.) 28 Apr 2025 23:18:20
Jesus its like banging my head on a brick wall.
Premier League pitch size rules dictate that pitches must be 105 meters long and 68 meters wide. yes you can have bigger but not smaller, Wembley is not massive! Its standard size and at the lower end. Yes it looks big because generally camera and stadium views are higher up as the stadium is big and has high tiered stands and unlike most of the older stadiums like the city it has a large run off area making the playing surface look larger.
Someone please throw me a bone here?.
8.) 29 Apr 2025 11:55:45
**like the city ground**.
9.) 29 Apr 2025 12:04:58
To be fair the rules are between
90 to 120m x 45 to 90m
Fulham have the smallest at 100 x 65
Whoof Whoof
Man utd biggest at 105 x 68.
{Ed001's Note - for a short period they did try a standardised size in the Prem, but it didn't last.}
10.) 29 Apr 2025 12:49:56
I know forest had the biggest pitch size in 23 in premier but I'm sure we reduced the width this season to accommodate the extra rows of seats at the front of brian clough stand, but I could be wrong
It stood at 105m x 70m or thereabouts.
11.) 29 Apr 2025 15:01:22
Yeah i think it was Luton that kinda killed the standard sizes, but whoof whoof i know i'm right ? Wembley is relatively small so therefore the "Massive" pitch myth is bulls?.
12.) 29 Apr 2025 15:04:12
And thank you DTP and Ed. I think you both backed my point ??
As it goes the CG and Eitihad are the two biggest for the 24/ 25 season.
27 Apr 2025 21:21:19
RedHotRed is right!
1.) 27 Apr 2025 22:08:05
Oh Dear. Will watch the second half in a minute from the goal, couldn't face it, I threw one. Shame on me! Anyway this is not sour grapes Pep, but in three weeks it must be time for the Fa/ Prem hearing into City's irregularities to be published. Might be the evening before the Final! (Shame on me! )
2.) 28 Apr 2025 10:36:03
Consequences for Man City? We can dream, matre.
20 Apr 2025 17:46:31
We just need Stella signings and a plan B!
1.) 20 Apr 2025 21:25:08
Don't mention Stella to Skeggs!
???.
2.) 20 Apr 2025 22:36:57
Prefer Heineken and i don't rate plan Bs singing. ?.
25 Mar 2025 20:35:51
Forest kits for next season have been leaked on kitman.
They look awful! Chance missed to have something very similar to the European Cup winning kit!
1.) 25 Mar 2025 21:37:58
On ya bike son ?? time for a new kit if we make European football and a new era we won't have to live in the past anymore.
2.) 25 Mar 2025 21:38:48
Just had a look, should definitely be a yellow away kit, disappointed ?, canny own a white/ whatever that's meant to be, absolute stain magnet ?.
3.) 25 Mar 2025 21:50:01
How can you make a red shirt look awful?
It's jyst a shirt that's red with a few changes every season
Don't buy em anymore at my age as it's mainly to cold to go to a match wearing one anyways
Rather buy a nice Ralph Lauren shirt for that price ?.
4.) 25 Mar 2025 22:36:29
DH Gate for about £15 a piece. Can't go wrong. It doesn't matter how they look for that price.
5.) 25 Mar 2025 23:02:20
I'm sure every forest fan in the world will buy one if we make European football we always have and always will do wether we like them or not simples ?.
6.) 26 Mar 2025 01:12:40
Dunno, it reminds me of a 1990s Arsenal kit or something. Definitely not keen on it. And the white one? Load of balls!
21 Feb 2025 12:23:57
Chris Sutton predictiong a Newcastle win, so good news there.
I hear the rumours about us going for Yuri Alberto. I'd like us to sign him. Just a hunch but I sense 32 goals for Corinthians and bags of ability, coupled with our recent success with players from Brazil. It's a yes, please from me!
Just a hunch but an educated one.
1.) 21 Feb 2025 13:04:10
It's definitely a gamble I'd like to see the club take but he'll probably go to Italy.
2.) 21 Feb 2025 15:39:37
Wouldn’t mind him at all Cyclist, reckon Alberto would be a good fit for us and knows where the net is.
3.) 21 Feb 2025 19:19:53
Thanks so much for passing that on for me Bowie! You’re a star (man) ⭐️. Richmond ?. Hope you get the bragging rights on Sunday mate.
4.) 21 Feb 2025 19:57:32
I've been to both of those towns Bowie. Believe me mate, they are VERY different.
5.) 21 Feb 2025 20:22:19
Yes ones north and ones south gazzi? Enough said?
6.) 21 Feb 2025 22:41:19
Wasn't supposed to let anyone know where he is gazz, so in the bad books. Bless him. I really didn't know. Not going to hide it perko. I obviously get inundated with texts on toon games matey. But FTID and they know it. My good wife can never understand it all haha.
7.) 22 Feb 2025 09:49:06
Proud of ya Bowie!
Proud of ya!
8.) 22 Feb 2025 10:42:32
Yes Bowie! ?⚪️⚽️.
21 Apr 2025 16:50:06
Awoniyi will be on loan to a Bundesliga club next season, probably. Needs to prove his fitness to other clubs and had success there previously.
Even the club don't know who we are in the market for until we know whether we are in the Champion's League. Game changing money and status will be a totally different market for a top striker.
25 Mar 2025 00:53:56
Brennan Johnson fits into that category I think.

29 Apr 2025 14:16:11
Strange hill to choose to die on. Do a bit of research, Saint. Pitches do have a considerable difference in size. It really isn't a myth. ??.
28 Apr 2025 20:57:37
All pitches aren't the same size.

28 Apr 2025 10:57:43
It's a funny old game Saint!
I guess every club (bar Chelsea, Liverpool and Man City) would need to strengthen.
What are the gaps in our squad? Obviously we could do with another Striker at least as cover (hungry young player hopefully). If Boly leaves we have Tyler Bindon to bring back. We need another classy player in the attacking midfield positions so if they could play number 10 and either wing that would be great.
Midfield strengthening?
I don't think we are that far off if we want to carry on developing hungry young players for the next two years.
