It won't sell many season tickets but that is the situation. The owner isn't interested. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DCFC1388 Posted January 29, 2019 Share Posted January 29, 2019 Until surplus players leave nobody is going to be coming in. I do wonder if the likes of Johnson & Ledley dont go if we will integrate them back into the matchday squads as their experience on the bench will be more important than youth imo. They still train with the rest so cant see why not unless payments/bonuses arent worth paying like with Anya (apparently) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It sounds like Mings is going to cost Forest a fair bit for someone that hasn't produced the goods for a fair while. Why take that risk? Most players moving in this window go at a premium, the only thing we realistically need is a backup CB. Lampard has already said we're in the market for one. Otherwise be happy with what we have and push on from there ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s looking to sell from whispers I hear, would you be throwing millions at a club hanging in sixth place when you’ve already lost countless millions and want out? Would think the answer is a resounding no. This is real money not Monopoly money remember. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know anything about Mel's personal position or his intentions but he has been more distant and out of the spotlight than previously and, without doubt, if you wanted to raise the profile of the club prior to sale then Lampard was the way to do that. That being said, even if Mel did want to sell, I would still be amazed if he would sanction a move for Pearce without being prepared to back Frank in getting a replacement Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Such a shame though, if we don't go up this season, all it will take is someone like a Villa or any club with a budget and I honestly think Lampard would be off. He has ambitions far greater than the championship and if he feels for a second he can't achieve it with Derby he is off. Lampard has the potential to be our best manager since Jim Smith, I don't want to lose him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fear that will be it and it probably won’t be enough, but I am fairly certain we will get a that at least before the deadline Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sparkle Posted January 29, 2019 Share Posted January 29, 2019 Lots of negativity on here lately——- I am not sure why we have made lots of dreadful transfer business in January in many seasons yes it would be lovely if we could have a wonderful centre forward and a wonderful central midfielder and a great central defender but it’s only Tuesday - two days to go and we will see and if we don’t get those in it may or may not be a benefit to us Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edtheram Posted January 29, 2019 Share Posted January 29, 2019 I see Thorne hasn’t played a single minute for Luton yet and I don’t think he’s even been involved in a match day squad as of yet. And some people think that he was ready for a start here.....he has just become a dad I believe but it just shows that they weren’t able to throw him straight in, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
