MACKWORTHRAM Posted July 22, 2021 Share Posted July 22, 2021 Im on the thinnest of thin ice with Derby County at the moment. I think this would break it. He is without doubt our first choice left back next season. Selling him is bad enough, selling him to Forest wound be unforgiveable. But on account of the fact that we wouldn't replace him. This would mean that Forsyth would be our only left back for a 46 game season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JfR Posted July 22, 2021 Share Posted July 22, 2021 He might be a free agent at the end of next season, but as a home grown player of his age we'd be entitled to compensation if he left for elsewhere on a free, anyway. I'd rather get another season out of him and have that than sell him to Forest (unless, of course, they're offering silly money), and you'd hope the club feels the same.

BramcoteRam84 Posted July 22, 2021 Share Posted July 22, 2021 More I think about it, after my initial emotional reaction I can’t see this happening. We have trouble enough putting a team together as it is, we need to keep the squad together, we’ll risk only getting £1m in compo for him like we’re going to risk losing Lawrence for nothing. Forest are not going to bid the money we’d need to consider selling him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elwood P Dowd Posted July 22, 2021 Share Posted July 22, 2021 If Derby want to further alienate their fans then selling anyone to the Trees is the best way to do it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MackworthRamIsGod Posted July 22, 2021 Share Posted July 22, 2021 If we were forced to sell Buchanan to Forest then Mel and Pearce want running out ot Derby. HRMC owed money, no updates on the accounts, no updates on anything of any note, embargos, umbongos, Buchanan to Forest would be the absolute final nail in the coffin for me.

Ramslad1992 Posted July 22, 2021 Share Posted July 22, 2021 Let’s be realistic… anything around the £3m mark would be good money with 1 year left on his contract. so for forest that will be £8m please. although we will probably sell him to a big club like Burnley for £500k and some new training bibs.

G-Ram Posted July 22, 2021 Share Posted July 22, 2021 Think he's been our best youngster out of the bunch to come through. It shows how far we have fallen having to sell our best talent to forest. I wont be happy seeing him go there but its needs must. If it allows us to bring in players and build a team that can stay up then we have to look at the bigger picture Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't see us doing it. I don't think there is a bigger picture, unless that sale alone solves all our problems...which it can't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Trav Posted July 22, 2021 Share Posted July 22, 2021 15 million and he can leave. He’s got interest from prem clubs. We’ll just get him a new contract easy stuff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rev Posted July 22, 2021 Share Posted July 22, 2021 I don't think he's all that. Keep and take the compo next summer, I doubt it will make much difference either way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As a talent Buchanan is more promising. He went through a bad patch and his confidence dropped so I can see why Rooney dropped him but long term he's the better option. I was surprised when we extended Forsyth's contract. He's on the decline and more Div 1 than championship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
