Just driven from Amsterdam via Germany and France to Copenhagen. That’ll do!
How on earth did you go into France driving to Copenhagen from Amsterdam?

Under the circumstances which applied at the time, Nigel Clough was perfect.
Under the current circumstances which apply, Wayne Rooney is perfecter.
Oh absolutely agree, Nigel did a good job in the circumstances up to a point.
But his limitations regarding attractive football were exposed as soon as McClaren showed you could play exciting, attacking football with essentially the same players.
Also, agree on Rooney.

3. Having identified total cash required open a subscription for people to buy shares in the club minimum £50 per share total initial offering say 1 million shares, even the poorest fan could afford 1 share, the most well off 100 shares plus so there would be a good distribution amongst the fan base, the money would not be collected unless any offer for the club was accepted and enough promises of cash made.
Never been poor have you?

Will there be a minimum investment? What about all those fans who want to be involved but haven't got a pot to pi55 in?
What if the majority on here want to commit to fan ownership but Ramstrust has already said no?
Is there a website for them? How do you get 1000's of people involved at short notice without a central, easily accessible, point of contact?

Apparently we are deluded anyway, according to the LTLF thread I read.

I'm curious, why not do the Administration thing after the players have been paid?
Why do it this late in the month when there's nobody else to pay it?
Unless he covered it early?

This alleged 60million debt.
Would any new owners have to pay it in full or is there scope for 'arrangements '?

Ed Dawes isn't a journalist though is he, just a presenter.

The fact he couldn't be bothered to even tell Rooney tells me everything I need to know. Not interested in more passing the buck.
Do you think Ed would ask that question?

It had better not be one of those interviews with a 'sympathetic ' local journalist.
We shall see.

I think he's a good manager. Did a very good job at Swansea with limited resources. But no one will ever succeed at forest with the way they are run.
Gotta disagree. A team still receiving parachute payments and also still a good squad, I would say play-offs would be the absolute minimum to expect.
To get there playing turgid football puts him in the Clement mould for me.
Forest don't have the players Swansea had.
If he is good with kids then how long will they need to wait before that bears fruit? 2 years, 3? Can you imagine watching Clement-ball for 3 years and still finishing bottom half?

I've heard that the consortium are buyers from New Mexico. Head guy is called Heisenberg. Apparently he doesn't mind if the club makes a loss every year.
It's all this uncertainty, no principles.

Personally agree with Alonso's assessment here.

Have booked a week in Corfu for the end of September and planning on camping at Lake Annecy in July, do some bike riding/walking/swimming in a casual manner of course.

So because you wear a seatbelt when you're driving it's o.k. for others drivers to crash into you? Ridiculous....
Hamilton this morning reporting that he has a stiff neck after the wheel hit his helmet - the accident could have been far worse and all because Max thinks he has a god-given right to drive however he feels with no real comeback and without giving a toss about whatever damage he might inflict on other drivers. How many accidents or near-misses has he been responsible for due to his over-aggressive driving since he came into the sport? - prettty much every pole position he points his car towards the path of the 2nd place car and tries to squeeze them off the track - he was getting penalties every race for a while due to his dangerous braking manoeuvres...the bloke is incredibly arrogant - and that makes him dangerous (supported by an equally arrogant team boss that ideally would have a word, but clearly won't as he's more interested in winning the title than the safety of other drivers)
As far as Hamilton reversing - I suspect that's a fairly natural reaction to having a car balanced inches above his head - that doesn't indicate that he wasn't hurt, just a survival instinct kicking in. Max should have checked on him but was so full of his own self-pity that he simply walked away - and that tells you all you need to know about him......
Extreme fanboyism right there.
