What is happening regarding Niakhate and Mangala? Have the sales gone through? If not, will they, and for how much, and will they be included in last years figures or are we expecting another points deduction next season?

Should definitely enable us to comply with FFP mate.

I sincerely hope so but, with the relationship between Forest and the PL I'd like that confirmed! ! !

Mate, the accounting period only ended at midnight last night. It will be many weeks before the Prems compliance gurus have worked their magic. I think some people think it just a case of a player signing on the dotted line and a quick bank transfer of funds. I believe from what I’ve read from legal reports that teams can still count transfers AFTER 30 th June if an agreement has been made between clubs even if the funds and players have been exchanged.
I understand we fell foul last season by trying to get Johnnos transfer included before 30 th June but it was 3 full months before he went to Spurs ( during which time he played 4 times for us and was in negotiations to go to Athletico Madrid which scuppered our argument somewhat.
I’d think it would be October time before we know. Until then no news is good news. I d think we would have learnt from last seasons deductions. ???.

Sorry, that should read “even if players and funds have NOT been exchanged “.

Both deals have fell through.

Where did you hear this?

Niakhate has definitely gone through and Mangelas transfer clause has been activated and will be confirmed on his imminent return from the Euros after Belgiums defeat by France mate. Plus the voyage of Odysseus continues with his next adventure in Newcastle …….
Alls well! ??
Plus I think young Anderson will be a big hit at the WFCG I predict. I also like the return to Dane Murphy’s strategy of buying young players with a big sell on value.
I’m reluctant to say this too early friends but I see a glimmer of optimism and common sense creeping into our transfer policy!

I hope it is a fantastic time at Nottingham Forest for Anderson, and bringing young eager players is great, but as with Aquilera, will he be moved on to one of Mr M 's other teams?.

Just read that Mangalas gone, transfer complete.
