Has nobody upstairs learned anything at our club over the past year or two? The crap Mendes has pumped into us under the shield of doing well with Wolves is ridiculous. Wolves have a superb manager and clearly a good scouting network. On the other hand we just seem to take any old crap Mendes throws our way in the hope that one or two will come good. I feel for SL, I suspect most of these signings are out of his control and the latest 30 Millon Euro striker linked with us has believe it or not yet scored this season! 30 Millon Euro! Your having a laugh 😂.

Wolves signed mir?
They signed cutrone in the summer too and he's gone to Italy already
All clubs sign misfits and agents get rich
That's the football world and you can thank a two bit footballer called bosman for causing it.
Money kept revolving around the clubs, now the players and agents have the money while most clubs run at a loss
The rollercoaster won't stop unless the TV companies pull the plug on football, but can't see that happening.

Ff79 i’m Starting to find this quite funny, you’ve turned from possibly the most negative poster on the board, into the ‘positive police ‘ lol your like the chain smoker that’s given up the habit, and is now lecturing the world on the perils of smoking, everytime someone posts something you perceive as slightly negative your on them in a flash! lol it’s always said that ex addicts are the biggest zealots.

17 Jan 2020 22:07:00
Ha ha stevie, its just I've seen the light .
I'm enjoying actually watching the most competitive forest side I've seen in over ten years.
It ain't always pretty, but it's pretty effective.
Is that an ok answer? 😁😁.

17 Jan 2020 22:17:49
Ps stevie your like the nun that never had a habit 🤣🤣🤣.

17 Jan 2020 22:31:08
Ff79 😊.

17 Jan 2020 22:37:09
Ff79 just pulling your chain mate😊I’m glad your enjoying it, as you say it ain’t pretty, but at least we’re being ugly at the right end of the table for a change!

17 Jan 2020 22:51:48
Please no more Portuguese Algerians they can’t cut it. Buy proven championship if you really want promotion.

17 Jan 2020 22:55:47
Personally think we're going to be in for a tough lesson Sunday just my feeling.

17 Jan 2020 23:32:52
We'll put in a stella performance skeggs just get her indoors to keep them flowing for you mate.
I'll be in my igloo parka coat keeping warm, first time I've bought a winter coat in my life, getting old now mate and got to say its kept my craving for beer at half time, I'm giving up when I need a bovril 🤣🤣🤣.

17 Jan 2020 23:47:09
Stevie I'm feeling flushed and that's from a plumber 🤣🤣.

18 Jan 2020 06:41:09
I'm working Sunday 79 9 days straight through so no beer flowing Sunday dinner 😩 and no watching game just sneaking looks at what's going on in game hopefully I will get to celebrate at the nighttime 3 points fingers crossed.

17 Jan 2020 15:19:32
Well that's kodja, Gayle and Gray that won't be coming to the championship,
Shows how hard it is to get quality strikers in this window.
Need to get Walker back and either pay Lincoln the compensation or offer them some of our under 23 squad or zach and bridcutt.

17 Jan 2020 16:42:11
Watford demanding 2m loan fee plus we pay all grays wages. 70k a week. Lol. I’d sooner we buy him for 10m
With add ins. Sell calvalho buy gray.

17 Jan 2020 17:01:40
F79. Surely if we were interested in getting a couple players the seeds should have been sown some time ago, or at least targets sounded out to negate this transfer window free for all?

What happened to the club talking to the players agent well in advance to see if the player wanted to come to forest if the opportunity arose. Get organised and lay the foundations. We seem to be looking in all the wrong places.
I like a lot of what SL is about and he is a decent coach capable of good things. Our problem is wanting the moon on a lollystick and and petulance to go with it. My feelings are that their has been no real backing of Lamouchi, just watching and waiting for him to slip so they can roll in another wanna be coach with the remmit of promotion yesterday.

Get walker back, and find from lower leagues or scotland a replacement for silva and see where it takes us this season. Give the manager and his associates a free hand to develop this team as SL has something in his locker that has bonded this squad and for that he needs applauding and backing with a longer contract. Skegs i am with you on this, finally.

17 Jan 2020 17:12:15
Hed still want 70k a week, we nor any other club in this league can afford that.

17 Jan 2020 17:12:21
Yep red red sell Carvalho that should raise 50quid towards him.

17 Jan 2020 18:23:01
Rutland what makes you think we aren't in negotiations?
What your forgetting is the agents don't own the players they just work on behalf of players.
Players under contract belong to that club until the contract expires.
Contracts don't end till 30 June in general so if a club does not want to sell there is nothing that can be done unless you either meet their price or they will loan him out.
Your inference that nothing is being done and targets weren't identified is just something in your mind as you can't produce any evidence to back up such a claim.
No one is signing players in the championship so are they all not doing their jobs of recruitment?
Patience is required and I'm just looking forward to watching us play Luton then having a few beers after in Nottingham.
Sheff utd managed last season bringing in the likes of mcgoldrick, so just chill and see who we bring in.
I'd rather bring no one in than sign players just because they are available.

17 Jan 2020 18:24:53
Balloons Olympiacos will buy him for 10m 😉.

17 Jan 2020 20:45:04
FF79 you are bang on.
The fact is the club won't want press media to know who they are after or targeting.
Everyone is doing the same .
Its brinkmanship right up to last day of window.
The window should be a week long as first 3 weeks nothing happens just press rumours.

17 Jan 2020 21:07:46
At last someone with a sense of how this window works. 👍👍🍻🍻🍻.

17 Jan 2020 12:10:10
Struggling to get a striker in. Shouldn't have let soudani leave.

17 Jan 2020 13:27:25
But he was utterly useless, and way out of his depth at Championship level. Would rather see Walker given a go.

17 Jan 2020 14:36:59
Murdoch how do you get to that decision he was injured most of his time here 6 appearances 2 goals lol he's gone on to olympiakos 6 goals 5 assists in 14 games give me more useless players like that 🤣🤣🤣🤣.

17 Jan 2020 16:43:52
Playing for best team in Greek league say no more.

17 Jan 2020 17:59:57
I saw his best goals compilation, and it was shockingly bad, some were just comical. He may have scored a lot of goals, but not against teams of any note. He wasn't injured the whole time he was with us, and you could see he just wasn't good enough.

17 Jan 2020 18:28:08
He was injured when he fell over against burton on 30th October never to be seen again.
Didnt look good enough to me.

17 Jan 2020 18:39:15
Some premier league striker had a good strike rate for England then you look at the teams he scored most of his goals against, no wonder be scored so many. Teams like Jamaica are leading the world in football, but some would have welcomed at Forest.

17 Jan 2020 22:54:23
Lol we have a 13 million pound misfit that can't do anything yet he's a good player rose tinted glasses come to mind 😂😂😂.

17 Jan 2020 09:29:54
Not looking good on the new striker front guys, all the established names are not interested or choosing another option. So where do we go from here? Expect to see a striker from France, Portugal or Greece, just hope it's not another Mir.

17 Jan 2020 12:14:36
Some strikers being overlooked, their are Swann, Bryant and also May. Reports say they are not to good in damp conditions.
Attacking midfielders for me, but the days of Henderson, Cox, Murphy etc., They set your pulse racing or was it raging l forget or choose to.

17 Jan 2020 14:30:58
Class mate, I salute you!
