Chalkie Posted January 29, 2016 Report Share Posted January 29, 2016 For all the talk on these pages about our failure to sign players because of their wage demands and our reluctance to pay I thought this quote from Forest manager Dougie Freedman was interesting:- Quote teams like Bristol City blow us out of the water, in terms of what they are paying http://www.nottinghampost.com/Dougie-Freedman-reveals-fresh-frustration/story-28632249-detail/story.html?

Nomad Posted January 29, 2016 Report Share Posted January 29, 2016 So, we're paying a larger percentage (or all) of his wage to Bournemouth than Forest can or want to. He is on a prem contract so I'm not sure what they expected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kezman Posted January 29, 2016 Report Share Posted January 29, 2016 Says Dougie who already has 31 players in his squad compared to our 24. On that basis we would have more of our wage budget available to spend as we have fewer players on our books. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah, but you're applying basic logic, maths and budgeting -principals probably beyond your average championship manager Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
havanatopia Posted January 29, 2016 Report Share Posted January 29, 2016 Freedman is taking Florist nowhere fast in my opinion. Of course he'll probably scrape into the pray-offs now I have said that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agent says 'But Bristol City will give him thirty grand a week, but I know my boy wants to come here, and for twenty five grand a week, I can make it happen... Don't believe me? Just Google how much the owner is worth'. Forest manager takes it as fact. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
