Heard a strange rumour, now I've heard this same one from two different toon fans. So neves is off to saudi. Now when there they loan him to Newcastle, which keeps the toon fair play better the saudis pay his wages but the toon pay a loan fee? Don't get me wrong we probably do it with the olympiacos. But the whole thing stinks for me. Again just a rumour.

Bowie I hope the Saudi league takes off and shrinks the stinking money available to the premier league.
2.) 28 Jun 2023 16:50:11
Keep your head on Rutland…….

In the main, the Saudi league will be full of second-rate South Americans, greedy Africans and past-it Europeans, with one or two exceptions.
It was said in the 90's that the MLS would rock the football World, it was said in the 00's that China was going to buy all the World's best players. Now it's the Saudi's turn to fantasise about creating the World's number one league.
It will never, ever have the same gravitas as the big European leagues. It's just doesn't have the history or tradition and I doubt it ever will.
Wouldn't mind seeing Dennis move there for £20mil though. They can have Shelvey on a free too :)

Always love your posts wonky son, keep em coming. Your knowledge is unreal at times. i remember a while ago saying you were unfortunate not to be able to get to games. Hopefully the change will come my friend. And your music background wasn't too bad too. Take care for now. Rutters you can't have any complaints on your golf with the summer greens mate. Hope you've enjoyed this green and pleasant land which so many of us take for granted. ??.

Indeed bowie and the fishing has been fantastic too.
6.) 02 Jul 2023 10:47:54
Fishing. Now that is ? boring.

I called on rafa Benitez to be next forest manager. Just seen on forest site he's been talked about. ? told ya balloons ?
1.) 05 Oct 2022 11:15:29
He wants Wolves not us sez it all.
26 Jul 2022 14:55:18
As i messed up with loan to buy. i'm old school i still think players have there studs checked for aluminium. Before the get on the pitch. Can someone please explain (pay as you play) surely this isn't as it comes over. How much does a player get if they don't get a game ED could you enlighten me please ?
{Ed002's Note - Such contracts are rare and typical comprise a. a low base payment, b. an "availability" payment, c. an additional payment for being selected.}
1.) 27 Jul 2022 00:17:04
Pay to play gets mentioned a lot Bowie, but I honestly can't remember anyone being signed in the Prem (or anywhere) on this sort of deal for a long time now.
It was normally for players at the end of their career/ injury prone.
2.) 27 Jul 2022 10:39:16
Yea, pay-as-you-play is a bit old fashioned but I think what people mean is, they'd prefer to see a player like Ramsey offered a performanced-based deal, rather than a high basic wage every week.
So instead of offering him £100k a week, you might offer £50k a week, plus bonuses for appearances, goals, and team wins etc. which might total £100k if he's playing and performing.
No one wants a croc on the books at £100k a week.
03 Apr 2022 15:03:23
Rumours on Newcastle wanting brennan for 50 million. Crazy not to . i know its only rumours but surely he's worth more than 20 mil.
1.) 03 Apr 2022 17:18:04
Think it’s more that they want 50 miilion for maximon which would free up money for them to try and get Brennan. So not 50 million but would put the price up a certain amount 🤷ðŸ»â€â™‚ï¸.
2.) 04 Apr 2022 12:52:51
I think in Johnson and spence we have gold on our hands. I think, even if we fail to go up this season then Forest need to think bigger picture with holding on to Johnson and pushing the boat out to get spence. It’s around these two that building for the future will be massive for confidence and attracting the quality needed to maintain that big push.
3.) 14 Apr 2022 02:10:31
Without promotion we have zero chance of signing spence would need a bid of around 20 Mill we just don't have that money.
27 Jan 2022 08:28:48
Carvalho in for his medical today, good luck in the future, spending our cash.
1.) 27 Jan 2022 18:24:03
I'm curious that we must have some attack minded players coming in as taylor and carvalho going out leaves us a little short if we pick up injuries and suspensions.

Could I politely guide ya all to another of my greatest defenders, Colin Cooper. Loved the laddie. Cb/ lb was at his testimonial. Some amazing players put in a show for him. ?
1.) 31 Mar 2026 18:23:49
Top man Bowie, no airs or graces went onto the pitch and did what he was paid to do, unlike some of the clowns we see today. Very underrated. Is he still up your way, mate?
2.) 31 Mar 2026 18:30:47
Never heard of him for quite a while, Vale, bud. But yeah, nail on the head. ?
3.) 31 Mar 2026 19:27:44
Carl Tiler was pretty good too.
Einar Aas was a Rolls Royce of a defender too, until that dreadful injury.
4.) 31 Mar 2026 22:21:03
Einar Aas was superb, but alas didn't last a season, Rogie.
Cooper, no, not for me.
Terry Hennessey, total class.
Sammy would have been, if Cloughie had come along sooner.
All about partnerships at centre back though, and best we had was Burns and Lloyd. End of.
31 Mar 2026 17:09:24
I admire yet laugh sometimes at Forest fans using the history of players and stature. Of this amazing club when cornered. It's the obvious way out. I'm an amazing fan of it, subconsciously. This season for me, the lot of em are guilty. Simple as, even the club's mascot Murrilo. Ok only now n then.
Just not enough working for the ball. From players, none can score and no target man with height. And too much fussing in final f****** 3rd. Let's face it, it's the defence if we do stay up kept us there not forwards. But I wouldn't write em off. Well not yet. Selling clubs bring it on themselves.
1.) 31 Mar 2026 18:32:05
Obviously me being a Geordie, you may understand. FTID.
2.) 31 Mar 2026 19:29:37
There have been matches where they have left nothing out there, Bowie, mate, just not enough of them.
3.) 31 Mar 2026 22:42:54
I actually don't agree.
These players have had four coaches in one season, each one trying to fix the other one's mistakes.
Then add losing a potential strike force of Wood and Elanga.
It was never going to be easy.
I can't fault the effort, just the finishing.
It's interesting that MGW has had his best goalscoring season when we are struggling.
Couldn't do it when we were up there?
We've dominated many a game and lost, that's not down to lack of effort, it's a mixture of bad tactics, poor team selection, not believing in the players, especially Dyche.
27 Mar 2026 17:17:33
The football for me, international and Premier, has took 3 x steps back. What do we do. Just keep fusing the horrible situation. Paying the dealers. FIFA, Sky, etc etc.
Should be wrong as we see it as a drug.
That bent, they tried to keep Trump on their side.
Gone is the old days of young wonders coming through the ranks.
For me my main love of the game.
In are the days of the clueless.
And rich.
23 Mar 2026 18:57:41
So the questions I put to ya all, first of all, I actually think this season has been one of the weakest for a long time, talk about two steps forward 3 x back. In the Premier as a whole. Remember someone posting on here, have ya seen how bad the Championship is. Myself, yup lot more entertaining than most of this lot. But hey "everybody wants to rule the roost, heads gone still trying to fly.
Loved yesterday btw reds from my heart. Mean that. And by no means trying to bring a downer. Say what ya see, wanna see them fingers.
And to add, I'd like ya all to give me your player so far, for season. You know me reds, never without controversy, just truth. Btw my player, hmmmmm probably Williams. Worked hard. Never played dead for time off. True red xx. Oi calm down luv ya all x.
1.) 23 Mar 2026 22:30:01
My player of the season, MGW. Grown as a captain, and leads from the front. For me he's up with the best we've had. Matured in his interviews, and a world away from what he was at the start of this campaign.
2.) 23 Mar 2026 22:30:21
Neco has been a brilliant, steady performer for us this season. However, my vote will go with Murillo.
3.) 24 Mar 2026 02:40:29
Seals, some outstanding saves have kept us in some games and given us vital points.
4.) 24 Mar 2026 05:15:53
I simply cannot split Neco, Murillo, and MGW.
All bring different qualities to the team.
5.) 24 Mar 2026 08:18:50
Can't split Williams and Milenkovic, but interesting how most are going for defensive players. That's our season so far.
6.) 24 Mar 2026 09:16:38
I chose Seals because of how many class saves he made, but then how many goal line clearances has Murillo made this season? It leaves me in two minds.
7.) 24 Mar 2026 09:37:52
The Serbinater for me. ?
22 Mar 2026 16:45:00
Well well well, what an amazing day. Defensively unbelievable. Sels/ Yates I've always had soft spots for. Reason. Their shot down on 1st mistakes. Absolutely over the moon for Jesus and Taiwo. Just cannot believe it. FTID. Don't get me wrong, they were just clueless. But you gotta work to take their confidence. Proud Geordie.
1.) 22 Mar 2026 17:18:55
Haha, I bet you are the only gloating Geordie tonight. What a result. I'm still a little shell shocked, if I'm honest. Keep checking the table in disbelief. ?
2.) 22 Mar 2026 17:38:26
Exactly winter. ?
3.) 22 Mar 2026 17:38:56
What an excellent week for Forest. They defended brilliantly today and took our chances well. It is very nice to go into the break with that result and a big 6 point goal swing today as well.
Well done Forest. ?
15 Aug 2025 22:43:59
Still up for Charlton brothers me.
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.

Well if it was yates nutting obrien none of us would believe it ??
30 Nov 2022 19:08:26
Good call that cyclist mate ?
02 Apr 2026 18:09:55
Obviously off the cuff. Stop putting a bet out. ?
02 Apr 2026 17:58:08
It's the belief, as I keep saying. They really have to believe in each other. From owner down. Club built on hardships, football as a whole, tears my heart out. Just so many wrongdoings.
But FTID. I know, repetitive. But, just saying. The last game, Reds, just gives me breathing without so many pills. Ok ok, bring it on myself. But if I go, I blame the lot of ya and dodgy management xxx.
31 Mar 2026 20:15:54
Not really, Stokey? Like Hoddle. Let the ball work for ya, bud. Not many gifted.
31 Mar 2026 18:32:05
Obviously me being a Geordie, you may understand. FTID.
31 Mar 2026 18:30:47
Never heard of him for quite a while, Vale, bud. But yeah, nail on the head. ?
