He did though go on to have a succcesful few seasons at Wolves. Nigel Clough was highly regarded by Forest fans and rightly so 1 goal every 3 games, and was obviously highly regarded not just by his dad considering he went on to Liverpool and Man City. So both made it as players without favouritism from their dads. LJ was highly regarded as a player by his dad but other than that had a few games at Kilmarnock and couldn't find another club after being released by them. That's on the playing side not loans between father and son managers obviously, but I'd say the suspicions many have of the favouritism by GJ to LJ plays a part in the thought process now that LJ is loaning his dad our players. Why would they go to Chelt when other clubs in the area like Swindon, Yeovil, Exeter, Plymouth even F.G.R. would probably not have refused them......now come on lets think of a reason ???? apart from Sunday dinner with the folks.

Its when we send Đurić, Maggers and O'Neill there in January that the moaning might start...! No that's when we send them to league 1 to scupper Rovers so called promotion push...

Do I believe that these players would be at Cheltenham if GJ wasn't the manager, no of course not but I'm struggling to see why that is a bad thing. Having a league 2 feeder club on our doorstep is surely a valuable resource? Cheltenham are doing us the favour by taking these players on loan and giving them league football. I'm sure if there were better offers on the table, let's say playing for Chesterfield for instance then the players and their agents would have taken it. I really don't understand how people can see these players playing regular league two football as a negative Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You Do The Dziekanowski Posted September 2, 2017 Report Share Posted September 2, 2017 Moore and Morrell start, Hinds on the bench Great news for Morrell, working his way up the leagues Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carey 6 Posted September 2, 2017 Report Share Posted September 2, 2017 See if Morrell is up to standard now. Surprising to see Hinds not get a start, but know that Eisa has been impressive for them. McCoulsky not even in the Newport squad today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cidercity1987 Posted September 3, 2017 Report Share Posted September 3, 2017 Gloucestershire Live´s opinion of the debuts: Positive signs from the Bristol City youngsters Joe Morrell was Cheltenham’s top performer on the day, despite only finding out at around 2pm he would be starting in the centre of midfield due to Nigel Atangana’s illness. He took his Football League debut in his stride, passing with conviction, rarely giving the ball away and generally looking like a neat and tidy footballer. His main challenge now will be to create a goal or score one himself, but the early indications were certainly positive and he may well be on set piece duty at Yeovil Town next Saturday. At the back, Taylor Moore played with confidence and he will learn much from the aerial challenge League Two football presents. He was comfortable on the ball, rarely hurried and although he was caught in possession early on, he rarely put a foot wrong thereafter and also looks like a useful addition. Freddie Hinds was introduced in place of Mohamed Eisa in the 58th minute and he had one chance in stoppage time, firing over the bar after Kyle Storer’s corner was cleared to him. Hinds is an exciting talent and with Jaanai Gordon adding another attacking option and Jerell Sellars not far from returning from his hamstring injury, there should be enough pace and creativity for the goals to start to flow.
