I'm sure they're just really, really happy for him getting a move to such a massive club

Just scored again, against PSV

Screamer

Think this might challenge for the worst goalkeeping performance I've ever seen

Probably won't be too long now

Usually I'd put this down as an FFP dodge, but this time I think they just want another signing to aid them in their quest of having the most signings in a single window

Should be off for that, surely

I get that Forest had big gaps in their squad with loanees returning and out of contract players, but we had a grand total of 5 players and even we've not signed as many as they have.

I know keepers are usually quite tall, but I heard that Anang might be giant

Sunderland U18s 1-0 Derby County U18s

1. Jack Thompson is in our Academy but not old enough to be a scholar yet. Is he an U16 now @Ghost of Clough?

I have no idea whether 3. Tristan Gill, 11. Johnson Osong, 12. Niall McAndrew, 14 Cruz Allen and 15. Kai Suarc are trialists or younger Academy players playing up in the U18s.

When I saw Farren Simons at Mickleover for the Belper United game he was wearing a protective boot, so it's good to see he was back on the pitch today.

Doing a bit of digging, and it looks like Johnson Osong is also from our academy. Think he's in the U16s. Interestingly, his older brother Detlef Esapa Osong plays for Forest's youth teams, and seems quite well rated over there.

Can't find anything on Suarc.

Weren't the EFL threatening to kick us out of the league in the summer if we didn't sort out a stadium before the start of the season? Not that I'd want that happening to Coventry.

Starting to think those that were calling Erik ten Hag "Erik ten Months" were being optimistic. Looking more like "Erik ten Games" on today's evidence.

Derby win but Barnsley-hating Cryptobros are also happy about it

GOALKEEPING SCORING LATE EQUALISER ALERT:
Seny Dieng for QPR at Sunderland

Am I right in thinking he'd be the first Ghanaian to play for us?

They’re also only refunding fans in person at the stadium between 9am & 5pm. Shafting the majority of them who are working all day, joke.

Steady on, this is Coventry we're talking about

Swear we used to do this one under Rooney

It’s ok, I’m sure Lingaard will put out a TikTok dance later and that will automatically give Forest a point back. 

If not, I’m sure he’s well up for a relegation scrap. How much are you giving him a week again?

Don't be so cynical. As the Forest fans keep insisting, he's not there because of money. He clearly just really, really wants to play in the same midfield as Jack Colback.

Come on lads, even the "worst team in history" managed to go unbeaten against Newcastle

On the bench for Carlisle today, got the number 99

Hopefully he doesn't play too flaky for them

I've only watched him a couple of times, but Darwin Nunez looks like one of the flukiest players I've ever seen. He's playing like Conor Sammon, but then somehow seems to inadvertently make it pay off.

Steve Strange died in Egypt a few years ago so rule him out..

I'd still pick him over Claude Davis

Early doors, but I could see Huddersfield this year doing what Barnsley did last year: losing in the playoffs the season before, losing a big chunk of their team as a result, and going down. 

Looks like they're getting ready to blow another load on a player

In talks to play for Manchester United...

...'s Under 21s

Poor Huddersfield. Got screwed over by VAR and Forest get their two best players and their sister club nick their manager.
