We clearly didn’t have the money to compete with other rival clubs for transfers, that or we refused to pay over the odds for Smith or Gregory. Selling Bird wasn’t in the plan unless we got a good offer which we did and we’ve got him for the season, I would hope we can use that money in the summer.
How in any way is this down to Warne?. People will say Ward Bradley Fornah (although most were supportive of those transfers at the time), I will raise you Hourihane Smith Collins Mendez Laing Barkhuizen who I would bet any money will be in the top 5-10 earners at the club, none signed by Warne and of them people only want Mendez (although I also like Collo). However it is dressed up we’re still being restricted by an EFL business plan. We should hopefully have wriggle room in the summer (unless this really is the limit of Clowes spending in which case we potentially have some issues).
They tried but ultimately we go with what we’ve got. Overall we’re stronger than when we started the window. Washington just needs stay fit and be our second striker to Collo. In fairness he was starting to look good when he got injured.
You’d be fools to write us off. I remember 2015 January window, we were top 2 and signed Bent Ince Lingard De Sart and we were thinking what a window we’ve just nailed promotion. Look how that turned out - we didn’t even make the playoffs!

Oh well disappointed he’s leaving for Bristol City, however he has given us plenty more than others eg: Buchanan, Ebosele etc etc
All the best Birdy, we will see you again I’m sure once the season is over. Hopefully next season 🤞🏻🐏👍🏻

Warne has been saying we want a striker...and we haven't got one, yet it's his fault that we haven't signed one.
It clearly isn't his responsibility. But fans are twisting it so its his football that is the issue? What ?...his team a few points from automatic promotion is the issue?
Seriously,  blame him for lots of other stuff. But clearly our financial situation is the issue and/or our recruitment team.
Other fans are blaming Clowes, forgetting he's already £50 or £60milion down? Really poor attitude.
It's disappointing.  But, a bit of realism wouldn't go amiss. 
We end the window stronger than we started it. Players to come back.
I'd prefer to see what happens,  listen to the explanation and the plan now, but toys are out the pram as per I see.

No, I'm not having sensible comments like this.
It's one of the rules of the forum that when the transfer window comes around and we don't sign the player(s) a fellow poster wants (irrespective of whether we can afford said player(s) or not), we must stamp our feet and have a hissy fit!

He’s gone on to say if they could build a stadium for 50,000-60,000 people they would fill it 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
That and inferring Forest are bigger than some of the big 6!!! The bloke is as deluded as the clubs supporters. He’s kicking TVs losing to Arsenal FFS!! What the hell does he expect. 
They had a bloke called Clough who was a genius, they punched above their weight while they had him. Maranakis needs to get back in his very large box (probably needs one of his shipping containers the fat b******). 
 

That includes the 20,000 players they've signed with no squad place, plus an average 3 family tickets for each.  He should really hire out Wembley

More likely to ground share at meadow lane after the city ground is condemned then redeveloped into housing.

Err, not many, just the one, maybe 2 at a push....

 
 

Marinikas kicking his TV screen in frustration at last night's games wonder how many he's been through this season....

With a nice war chest from his owners to go and sign players. Pretty much all his main targets 

A bit harsh on the Nyambe acquisition. He was very much on the club’s target list but wouldn’t sign as he wanted a Championship club. Once he felt that door had closed, he joined the Rams. 

Ward, for good reasons, is third choice RB. We also have Smith as cover
Yes he can cross...but in a situation where we only have one fit striker, he can go.
Fornah has some positive attributes, but he's lost the ball poorly so many times that if it means we can get someone else in...he can go too. First half against Bradford he was excruciatingly bad. Not sure Warne can trust him.
 
 

Everyone knows we needed more this transfer window. Good move getting CBT but we need more. If we don’t get them, that’s on Thomas/Pearce/Clowes not Warne, and probably not even on them we’re clearly still heavily restricted.
