Not sure if I missed something in terms of Murphy being injured, but not featured at any level since joining us as far as I am aware.

Not in the U21 squad for today’s game.

If he is injured, do we know how long he is out for? If it’s not injury related, how come he isn’t involved currently?

Possibly for the same reason that Curtis isn't in Sheffield Uniteds match day squad.

As someone who doesn't really follow these things, how much stronger will Forest be by the time of replay?

Which players will come back from AFCON in time?

Nigeria v Cameroon tonight

Senegal v Ivory Coast Monday 

Senegal should beat Ivory Coast so Willy Boly, Serge Aurier and Ibrahim Sangare should be back for the replay.

Don't shoot the messenger.

Quite often, when transfers are announced the selling club say publicly how the buying club have acted professionally throughout.

Some, however, are just belters with no class:

 

TBF, some on their "forum" are slagging the club off for that sly little dig.

Totally unprofessional - as always.

As you were chaps, reliable sources tell me that our new man 'John' was priced at a very reasonable 81% of a Tillson.

It seems someone may have been exaggerating

 

So the arse licking hack exaggerated ?

I'm shocked.

Not.

Bearing in mind his recent article about the owners, that's one thing he isn't.

He was up Bartons arse all the time that thug was manager.

Now he's gone he's calling him out.

100% sycophant and now hypocrite.

Fair do's that he's had a go at the owners, but he's shown what he's about previously imo.

Me and the boy unable to attend tonight. He is currently in hospital after a big operation. He did make me laugh though, when he came round he was chatting nonsense as expected, and he blurted out the gas lost dad. 

Come on City 

Hope he recovers well and is back at the Gate soon.

They've quite a few missing but will still put out a very good team.

Tougher game than West Ham who managed one shot on target iirc and were bullied, this lot will have a lot more about them and better going forward even without their missing players. 

Losing Williams is a big blow.

I think they'll get a couple or three and I'll go for a 0-2 score and hope I am as crap at predicting results as I normally am.

Why oh why are they so full of shit 

 

What a depressing read and sadly one in which Gas heads through the decades have become accustomed to. A director from a fellow league 1 side (who have also had their share of problems) asked me what do you know about the new owner ?, we cant find anything concrete!! - my reply was: SNAP!! I believed like many that Wael would do the right thing and bring in the right “honest” individuals., has he been fooled ? - Who are these people ?. Yep it’s the “here we go again” syndrome. Who would be a ruddy Gas head ? - Amongst the most absent fans in the land, who deserve so much more, it is sadly depressing to keep living these shambolic offerings. I still say “They built a new stand - that is progress” but the overall picture is confusing at best and depressing in reality. UTFG

Fixed 

I see that the Gas reporter has grown some balls and called out their owners in a damning piece in the Post. Fair enough, but what a hypocrite, after being up Bartons arse for all of his time at the club, he had this to say about the manager who replaced Barton;

"Furthermore, he's just a breath of fresh air which has been incredibly welcome. With the 41-year-old you get straight, honest responses in press conferences where excuses are very rarely if ever made while he protects his own players when necessary. A welcome change."

I cant cut and paste off asschat, but their former head of stale crisps is now putting the boot in

Iain Paterson now at Forest Green as Head of Hospitality (former Head of Catering at the Dump);

So this Kuwait "academy" charges £320 per month per child plus £70 for basic kit ?

Bargain 

Maybe they should consider a few words/photos about the facilities and the coaching staff to go some way towards justifying the costs and spend a few quid on developing a professional website. As it is, it comes across as a scam.

Embarrasing, as ever.

Heard from someone today that he’s picked up an injury and is going to be out for a while.

Hoping it’s not true

Who ?

Atkinson, Sykes, or Twine ?

They reacted well to the Snake and being relegated out of the football league by Colin Daniel wearing their kit didn't they? There's a good yardstick, plus punching horses, stewards, players in the back of the net etc with a sprinkling of racism.

We know there are idiots supporting every club in the country.

Unfortunately Rovers have more idiots than most. Anyone with half a brain cell would have given up supporting them years ago.

Now it's just stuck in the 70's ToteEnders, their kids / grandkids that have been forced to wear a clown shirt that bother, but no doubt they'll grow up disillusioned by the delusions of their elders and eventually stop bothering altogether.

I think thats already happening tbh.

Ok, we’re aware of all this.

Would Gasheads have been any different under the circumstances? 

Ask Matty Taylor (the 10m footballer, not the poor bugger managing that lot).

He got a few death messages from those pikeys.

From their forum;

Overall attendance : 8,543
Travelling spectators : TBC

Exeter saying they sold 902,  so 7641 home crowd.

£32 for a concession ticket to watch 3rd division football ?

No wonder their attendances are abysmal.

"Seniors ticket for Oxford game - Sat 27 Jan - seat in West Stand. Sell at face value - £32. E ticket. Perhaps DM me."

How could the away numbers have only been 512 when they’d sold 803 2 days before the game? 
 

 

Is the 512 the ones counted into their cowshed ?

Dunno, they don't post attendance figures as far as I can make out - unless its 10k+ of course.

The natives are revolting (we all knew that anyway);

"Crap ground and team.Won't bother coming Sat now."

They aint happy bunnies.

Which is nice 

Wonder why they are the only club in their division that don't publish their attendances ?

Exeter should be up by three - they'll regret the missed chances..

Not just talking: doing it now!

400 “extra” tickets now available to Oxford.

£29 with a generous £4 reduction for seniors! Thats more than we usually pay away! 

So they can't get enough home supporters to buy tickets in the cow shed,  so they're trying to sell extra tickets to away supporters for £29 ?

Embarrassing.
