Forest_for_life Posted June 1, 2008 Report Share Posted June 1, 2008 Have you got any money these days? I though Forest were quite a few million in debt? We had a lot of rumours last summer, something about being promoted starts the rumourmill going into overdrive. We cleared the debts a few years ago. Our chairman Nigel Doughty is a very rich man and promised to put money in if we went up. I'm taking all these rumours with a pinch of salt, the Nyatanga one has turned out to be b***ocks as it is.

The Forest lad at work this season just gone was unable to mention him, Calderwood or Mark Arthur without accompanying it with numerous expletives. In fact he held them in the same regard that I regard Tony Pulis! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Huge crowds with renewed enthusiasm - it will count for a fair bit. One or two decent signings and you'll push on. If Leeds had won their play-off, I think they would have got similar momentum. The Championship is going to be a much tougher division next year and in all honesty I don't think we'll be amongst the top teams. One thing for sure, it is definitely a decent standard of football compared to the grind of League 1. Roll on August! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nibor Posted June 2, 2008 Report Share Posted June 2, 2008 I'm not sure the enthusiasm is particularly renewed, they still seem to me to lack faith in Colin Calderwood and understandably so. In Forest's case promotion was expected the season before and now that they've got it, well, he's just about met the minimum expectations. I think it could go either way, a good start might see them get momentum but a bad start could see the fans on the manager's back again. I do think he makes good signings though and Earnshaw will definitely buy him some time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm worried about what approach he is going to take, maybe if he signs more quality players he might approach games in a more attacking manner. Its difficult to evaluate what is going to happen until we see who we has signed and what tactics he uses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This signing has gone down well in Nottingham then! http://www.forestforum.co.uk/index.php?topic=26184.0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kept feeding us b***ocks about how he loved the club and would sign if we went up then goes and signs for the molestors. Can't wait to give it to the fat bastard when he returns. Very patchy player and not worth the wages Derby have him on, incredibly frustrating to watch him look quality in one game then disappear in the next three.

gary cornes Posted June 2, 2008 Report Share Posted June 2, 2008 Hmmm, interesting - wonder if this is from the same source/reporter that had info on the Fontaine to Liverpool deal? Like Gary Johnson said if its not on BCFC.co.uk then its probably not true. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Denilson Posted June 2, 2008 Report Share Posted June 2, 2008 Like Gary Johnson said if its not on BCFC.co.uk then its probably not true. Obviously, they only announce signings when they have gone through, not rumours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
