But that was reality. Under Kenwright we were moving to Kirkby next to a Tesco. Moshiri was the owner and this was the way he was able to finance it. And there is no proof that a bigger stadium would have made financial sense. Some people just...

Most people won’t have seen it. Places like this are a bit of an echo chamber where it’s easy to believe everyone is the same as you because that’s what you’re seeing all the time. Most fans don’t go on the forums and twitter everyday to see all...

I’ll be honest and say I wasn’t impressed with him tonight, but I’m not going to judge him on 45 minutes of football. He does look like he’ll be a longer term project which is fine, if he’s the one they really want then hopefully it gets done but...

Woltemade looks a brilliant footballer, two footed and plays with his head up, would improve our attack 10 fold

It depends what you class as moving the needle I suppose. I think rice is superb myself, and zubimendi is theoretically as good a midfield signing as you’re going to make. They blatantly need a top class striker but if they get one and don’t...

Yeah exactly. They don’t necessarily have to be old or domestic or whatever either, it’s just that not every signing you make is going to be a world beater. Mangala for example last year was never going to make himself the first name on the...

It's sort of what I would call the Kevin Kilbane paradigm. Didn't set the world on fire but was ok for a couple of years. We all often want the world beaters, or young high potential players. But if you throw too many young unknowns in to a...

They want sesko but won’t go all the way to the asking price. They’re actually linked with some serious quality this summer to be honest, no idea if they’ll get them but if they do they’ll be right up there.

It took me 30 seconds to find this. Let’s not make calling a young player “raw” something that it isn’t. It’s a term used in every sport for a common description of any player who has talent but isn’t a polished product.

I just searched my own posts and i've used it to describe all 3 of those mentioned, plus Branthwaite, Pickford before we signed him, and Sandro.

Quite a lot will have been on here i'd imagine. Patterson from the current squad, Mykolenko when he first came, Gordon for sure. It's generally used to refer to players who have good natural attributes but don't look great technically and look...

Your initial post looked sarcastic/flippant and so I responded in kind. If it wasn't, then I can only apologise and hope that my 'spiky' response of saying it didn't really address the point wasn't too offensive. You appear to be completely...

Mate I have absolutely no issue with you at all, I’m not being critical. Your original reply to me was clearly a bit sarky, my reply to you was the same. It’s no big deal, it’s just a bit of fun on a forum. You think we shouldn’t sign anyone who...

Haha my reply was spiky but yours is dead friendly yeah? I was just using the post to frame the point, not comparing our situation to Arsenal's. The principle is the same whatever the club. We'd surely all agree that Forest have done well with...

Well no they're not, and I never suggested they were. It doesn't deflect from the point in any way at all, but yeah it's true at least.
