Clough new contract

Maybe, just maybe, people would take a little more notice of you if you didn't throw out so much abuse when someone disagrees with you.

There is no indication from within the club that a contract has been offered. There is no indication from within the club that there is a problem. My own guess is that they have discussed it, but both parties are happy to get round to it once his coaching staff have had their contracts sorted - no rush as they trust each other. What I do know is that Tom Glick and Nigel Clough have a great working relationship and fully expect Nigel Clough to be here for some years to come.

Eloquently put bcnram

Edited to give the link

Derby manager Nigel Clough's move back to manage Nottingham Forest is off - because he does not have the proper coaching badges. Under new regulations brought in last summer, Championship clubs can only appoint bosses with A or Pro licences but Clough only has a B licence.

Anyone know if there is any validity to this gem.

Theres a bit more about Frank Clark already being there !!??

So the stumbling block at the moment is Nigel wanting the contracts sorting for his management team before he signs anything. Fair enough I say but I hope that's all there is to it and it's not a case or Glick trying to give them crap deals.

A page from history: Brian left over contract disputes and Sam Longson not wanting to give Peter Taylor a reasonable increase.

People might not want comparisons between Nigel and Brian but one thing is for sure they are both bloody minded stubborn buggers

Back page of the Telegraph says contract talks with Clough and staff have now started and are "going well". No timescale but deals are likely to be three years til 2014.

Can't tell you any more than that, I blame Bloomfield myself

Since I don't know your newspapers very well, is The Telegraph kind of paper you can trust ? I've noticed that The Mirror and Sun ain't rated so highly amongst the readers of this forum.

i won't be happy if a 3 year deal is given, I am not a fan of 3 year contracts in honesty, if you want to get rid if it goes south it will cost a fortune.

Shut up you miserable sod. 'http://www.dcfcfans.co.uk/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/tongue' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':P' />

We ain't got a sugar daddy and Clough has done enough to deserve a chance to finish the job. Have a look at the list being considered for Forest, do you really believe they will be that much better than him.

Slowly but surely he's building a decent squad without bankrupting the club.

I just don't see a credible alternative unless GSE and the "investors" suddenly start throwing £millions around.

Well where's ianm to tell us he told us so.....oh I see, so he was reading too much into an innocent article.

Anyway back on topic, glad Clough is staying he is improving as a manager and is improving our team. I hope that it continues for the next 3 and half years (or more if he gets another contract after)

Good, glad to hear that the wheels are moving, and to be honest they probably started a little while ago. I think that we forget that under previous owners and managers all laundry was aired in public, however this set up only seem to say something when needed and not just because they feel they have to.

I think more money will come, as the squad progresses and develops, it won't be silly money IMHO, rather than just one Shackell/Barker type signing it could be two or three. Progressing nice and steady. Well I hope so!!

No more board out, Clough out ? 'http://www.dcfcfans.co.uk/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':D' />

And no more 'tits out' I hope! Now the weather's getting colder,it takes ages to find them under all the layers of clothing - and, to be honest, they're not worth the effort when I do!
