  1. Was just thinking, with this FFP charge coming in, you have to question why they decided to spend half of last season without a shirt sponsor because they thought they could somehow get more than was being offered. That must have counted for a few million at least.
  2. On the other side of things, you have Wolverhampton selling 17 players to meet FFP requirements, also losing their manager in the process: https://www.telegraph.co.uk/football/2024/01/17/gary-oneil-wolves-drastic-transfer-policy-everton-forest/
  3. Check out the name of Mauritania's number 27. Apparently the new name of Aboubakar Kamara who used to play for Fulham. It definitely makes him sound like a bit of a weapon, but probably not in the way he'd hoped.
  4. Don't really see it, in truth, but wouldn't be against it https://www.hitc.com/en-gb/2024/01/16/exclusive-sunderland-and-derby-county-interested-in-signing-league-two-goal-machine/
  5. Just wondering, who did Forest keep out of the playoffs the year they went up? Asking for a certain curly haired frie- er, acquai-... lets call him a "currently tolerated enemy".
  6. https://www.thesun.ie/sport/11977349/bohemians-three-defenders-kuusk-carroll-isamala/ "Bohs are eyeing the highly rated Isamala but face competition from Derby County. (...) Isamala — also a centre-half — remains keen on a move to England and is spending a week with Derby." Likely for the U21s
  7. Reading's game against Port Vale has been abandoned for a pitch invasion in protest of the Reading ownership:
  8. You think that's bad, he also can't tell the difference between Wilfred Emmanuel-Jones and Trevor McDonald
  9. Seeing some of his other posts, I don't even thinks it's just that he thinks that women shouldn't be pundits, he seems to think they shouldn't be involved in the men's game at all.
  10. To be fair, there's nothing to say we didn't try for him on a free
  11. Quick update from Bartonworld A couple of female commentators he doesn't like - Comparable to serial killers His racist murderer brother - A misunderstood lad who lost years of his life over a scrap I really should know better than to keep giving this attention
  12. We're not even a week into 2024, and Forest have a potential FFP investigation coming their way, have invented the concept of a permanent loan move to get rid of Shelvey, and now have a player coming out to say that he's never associated with Jeffrey Epstein. What a club. For clarity on this last one, a fake "list of Epstein associates" has been circulating on social media for a while, in which is the name of Callum Hudson-Odoi (amongst a few other dubious names, including Mikel Arteta). Most people that haven't just taken it at face value seem to think it's an edited list of people that got Covid in the early part of the pandemic, as Hudson-Odoi and Arteta were both early public figures to have been diagnosed with it. I think Hudson-Odoi's name being on the list tipped most English people off to it being a load of nonsense, but a lot of those on the American right - renowned for their common sense and reason - have treated it as gospel, so I'm not surprised if he's a bit annoyed about it.
  13. On a side note, didn't Jonjo Shelvey's Confused Exit do a live session for John Peel?
  14. It's a weird one, but you'd have to hope that the relevant authorities would be aware of this, even if Forest's previous public statements weren't accurate. That said, if they weren't, there could be scope to do a bit of an FFP dodge by pretending a player they released was still on their books as an asset, but considering how their transfer policy has been generally, I wouldn't be surprised if this is just one part of the club having absolutely no idea what another part is doing.
  15. Same one that us and Sheffield Wednesday used, so hopefully third time isn't the charm.

    Wayne Rooney

    "However, time is the most precious commodity a manager requires and I don't believe 13 weeks was sufficient to oversee changes needed." Oh my God, he actually was trying to get them relegated
  17. Antony hasn't recorded a single goal or assist so far this season, his last one being an assist back in May against Wolves. Genuinely having a hard time thinking of a player in the price range that he was in to have had that bad of a return.
  18. Not really sure how Gibbs-White wasn't sent off there. Two easily yellow card challenges in a row, followed by him having a go at the ref.

    Henrich Ravas

    Not a bad move for him, especially as NER's last two starting keepers moved from there to Chelsea and Arsenal respectively
