Seen from Forest forums that the buyer values Lansbury at 2.25 million - interesting that a bid of 2.5 million now seems to be out in the public domain. I really really really doubt this!

Cam the Ram Posted January 1, 2017 Share Posted January 1, 2017 Just now, Gerry Daly said: I fully expect him to sign. Rush and Mel don't lose out on many do they. 'Discussions' will surely have been had before the bid was made and deliberately made public I think we will also sign a much better player than Russell to play wide left and get Chris Martin back and be formidable in the second half of the season They do indeed usually get their man, but not when it's a Forest player. Antonio went on strike after our bid/interest in him was made public and Fawaz tweeted he would never sell anyone to Derby and as we all know, Antonio then went onto West Ham. The abuse Fawaz has received recently from his own fans may have caused him to change his stance on never selling to Derby, but I doubt it.

Yes but the recent(ish) sale of Burke shows they are now inclined to pocket the cash. The only thing to scupper this I think is if there is genuine interest from a premiership club as was the case with Antonio Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gritty Posted January 1, 2017 Share Posted January 1, 2017 If I were the new owners coming in; the surerest way to please nffc fans would be to announcec lansbury won't go to derby.

If he does then either the money goes to the new owners or if fawaz gets it, the new owners reduce their price by 2.5mn as value of assets gone down Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RamLad1884 Posted January 1, 2017 Share Posted January 1, 2017 By all accounts this wouldn't be a PR disaster for Forest. Most of their fans seem to be of the opinion that 2.5 mill for a CM who isn't willing to sign a new contract is decent, and that we're the ones getting the bad deal.

I heard from a very, very reliable source at the time (think it was the day before we signed Butterfield) that we had offered Antonio £28k a week and he'd turned it down so I can't imagine he was that desperate to come specifically to us, probably rather just generally to leave... which I can't blame him for Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
