Summer Transfer Window 2025 Thread

[PhilEFC]

I don't agree with the tinpot club as they have some great history. It is a bit disappointing though if they do beat us to signings when apart from their great season last season, they have either been down there with us or not even in the league. Guess it shows how far away we actually are and it's going to take a good few years to get us back.

I agree. A good club Forest.

The overriding point is that clearly players view them as a better prospect than us currently. We’re still seen as a club that circles the drain every season, that’s the perception.

Yep, not surprising after our last few years. We are seen as relegation fodder these days and Dyche didn't help with him pushing staying up as a goal. It's going to take a few decent seasons for us to shake off that damaging perspective. Will be interesting to see how long it take Forest to fall back down to where they have spent most of the last 3 decades.

And the Truth shall set them free (because let's be honest there are a shedload of deluded people on here).

How many seasons did it take for Forest to shake off the fact that they have been much worse than Everton for the past 40 years?

One season finishing 7th doesn't shake it off but apparently it has for some.

MGW chose Forest over us, not worth wetting your panties about.

Only if you believe what you read on social media mate. I am not convinced they do really. So much nonsense being reported, worse than ever this year.

That's just an excuse, it seems Forest has wiped off 40 years of being behind us within one so why do we need multiple?

 

[BigBeto1]

It’s not just the fact that Forrest had one good season. It’s that every player and his agent is fully aware that this is a place careers come to die. Until the perception changes that we can be at least a good stepping stone club, people won’t want to know

A new feature to keep ye going folks

Saying in that report we have a lot of work to be done to get this transfer across the line.

Myers has found his spiritual home at Everton News. To save anyone else the trouble he says Moyes needs six new players who are better than what we have without naming anybody or providing any insight on current negotiations. Never change Al, you are the hero we need

A season of Chris wood having the year of his life goal scoring and injury wise, and other teams having wobbles = Forest are now massive compared to us and others does it?!

The maths ain’t mathing fellas.

Tbh I wanted them to qualify for the CL just to stick two fingers up to the premier league, but I’m quite glad they faltered. Can’t stand the owner at all.

Let’s see how they manage with European footy now, and let’s not believe everything we read or hear on Sly sports news or talkshite radio.

More like Nothingham Forest

From Sky Sports to Everton News. With the big league now.
