You have to admire Reid's strong and principled stand on universal pie eating. If Andy Reid can't eat all the pies, why should he even bother with Forest?

Ewe Ram Posted May 20, 2017 Share Posted May 20, 2017 Not heard or read his interviews but this guy is small beer compared to some of the money and power in English football isn't he? Hope he will be properly dealt with when his dirty tricks start. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still don't get how someone under investigation for match fixing can pass the test. He may not be charged, but surely until the investigation rules no wrong doing its negligent of the league to allow him to pass the test. Will they force him to sell if he is charged and found guilty? For a club who were victims of match fixing themselves to allow this to happen is beyond belief. He should have been forced to wait until the investigations were over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boycie Posted May 20, 2017 Share Posted May 20, 2017 Just had a wander down the road and into the Forest Forum that's lost a loving feeling. All they're talking about on the new owner thread is the speed that the beers get served at half time. they seem happy with it all? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here's a link for fellow masochists. http://www.efl.com/global/appendix3.aspx Only convictions seem to count - in actual fact they are more stringent on potential conflicts of interest by outright failing anyone who has an interest in another league club - whether or not that individual has acted with the utmost propriety. its a pretty poorly drafted rule as it doesn't allow any deferral of a decision to cover situations where adverse rulings may be pending.

BramcoteRam84 Posted May 21, 2017 Share Posted May 21, 2017 It may well all blow up in their faces again, but from the outside his early moves suggest this guy actually knows what he's doing. I think a CEO is important for a football club. I'm a little concerned we don't have one at the moment especially with an Owner who has already displayed his abilities with an axe!!
