    Doubt Norwich will be interested.
  2. I hear this is all historic and complicated, however we're talking about charges over a period of 14 seasons dating back to 2009, 15 years it's taken. 7 Premier League titles 3 FA Cups 6 League Cups 1 Champions League All won during those periods, circling back to our own situation where we had Boro and Wycombe wanting to sue us for 'cheating' and costing them positions in the table, successfully getting paid off to go away and the EFL retrospectively changing the rules to throw the book at us. All those clubs beaten twice by City going down by the 6 points. All those clubs missing out on European football, titles, trophies. It's just insane to me that a club with 115 charges is still carrying on regardless 15 years after their first unpunished offence, you can bet your house that they won't face any retrospective punishment and pay a fine of a few million which will pay for a lavish PL bosses Xmas party. Forest have been naive to think they can slide a transfer from one accounting period to another, yet in the grand scheme of things, seems a minor infraction whilst other state run clubs stick two fingers up and laugh from afar.
  3. True. Part of me wishes they all just buggered off to the Super League now, would English football recover from the loss of those clubs? In time I’m sure. Makes no sense that a clubs revenue whilst in the Championship is used to form sustainability rules in the league above where the wealth is greater minimising their ability to compete. That one charge has the potential to relegate meanwhile a club at the other end has 115 hanging over them and as I say, allowed to continue picking up silverware. It’s Forest, so I’ll laugh, just as they did when the EFL rewrote the rules punishing us retrospectively, yet we all know it stinks and about time they scrapped this nonsense in favour of a more fair system that would allow clubs to all compete on a level playing field.
  4. Can anyone explain why Manchester City are avoiding answering their 115 charges before the rule changes in August, whilst Forest and Everton must answer them now? 115 charges which has dragged on for how long? I want to sit here and take the piss out of Forest as nature intended, however it's just wrong how Manchester City are continuing and picking up silverware whilst others are having the book thrown at them.
  5. There was a story where Rosenior was out, spotted Hourihane, sold him the dream. Rooney was still present at that time. You have to remember, deals are done over a period of time, will be months of flirting and proposing before anything gets signed.
  6. Ward was a risky one to add to the post, I like him, been unlucky with injuries, can whip a nice ball in so for what Warne wants, at this level, I personally think he’s quality and just hasn’t had the time to really show it. Can’t believe I forget Nyambe though. Oops.
  7. Couple of things here, last season was our first in League 1, not only would incoming players be sold the bounce straight back up dream, Rooney was still around whilst deals were being lined up. 18 months later, are we to believe Warne hasn’t signed any quality players, players which have us 2 points off the automatics? Nelson, Wilson, Ward, are they crap? To top it off and suggest Warne isn’t respected at this level, come on, his CV will earn him respect, let’s not needlessly slander the guy because we’re not signing players that we want and he may have no interest in.
  8. 3 pages in and nobody is addressing the elephant in the room here..... What exactly is Warbeball?

    You say it best, when you say nothing at all. Time after time we see comments like this about not being at this level, it's just words. No matter what we think, Warne may have looked at him and thought he's all that I need. Life is a rollercoaster, this I promise you, anyway we've got tonight to worry about first.
  10. Feels a bit tinpot at first due to the U21 teams involvement. For a club in our position though it’s clearly more winnable than both the FA and League Cup, now we’re so close, be daft not to take it seriously. Wish they would sack off the U21 teams and bring in Championship clubs, extend the format. Would hold more value in the earlier stages.
  11. So AJ says he’s not interested in a gimmick fight, Ngannou rocks Fury and now he’s a legitimate opponent whilst the pair continue to avoid the fight everyone wants to see…..each other. I’m sure it will happen eventually out in Saudi when they are 45+ coming out of retirement in an exhibition, when all genuine interest is lost.
  12. We are winning more consistently. That’s the difference.
  13. It's Mel B you want to be fearful of, she's proper scary
  14. This ref is giving extra paragraphs for the @DavesaRam match officials report later
  15. Dry January going well then?

    Want to feel old? This lad is 26 in April. Only feels like last month we were debating if he should be given a chance in the team or not.
  17. Would I be correct in saying he’s never received a straight red card?
