Bobo Dave Posted October 4, 2005 Report Share Posted October 4, 2005 Kevin James - NO - v.bad goals per game ratioDavid Perpetuini - NO - move around too much, obviously didn't impress at Watford, Gillingham, Wycombe & Walsall so ended up at Stevenage - ummmm........ big time !!!Aboubacar Fofana - maybe worth a longer look Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedM Posted October 4, 2005 Report Share Posted October 4, 2005 A forward, defender and a midfielder. Don't knock them before they've even kicked a ball in anger. At least GaryJ seems to have assessed the squad and using the limited options available to try and strengthen it.I quite fancy chanting Aboubacar Fofana's name after a few drinks!

Big Red Rich Posted October 4, 2005 Report Share Posted October 4, 2005 I can remember Graham Taylor was v.impressed with Perpetuini when he was at Watford, not sure what happened to him after that. Probably another case of much potential but little end product. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Port Said Red Posted October 4, 2005 Report Share Posted October 4, 2005 Can we sign any of these guys though?I don't understand this transfer window thing at all, first we sign Sankofa on an "emergency loan" deal even though we have two other central defenders at the club, now we are looking at 3 players all under contract doesn't that mean we would be "transferring" them in? If so how is that allowed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Casual Connoisseur Posted October 4, 2005 Report Share Posted October 4, 2005 3 that look like they are no better than we have already, unless i have missed anything can any of them hold the title of WINGER? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nibor Posted October 4, 2005 Report Share Posted October 4, 2005 I thought the idea of a trial was to watch them play to see if they're any good as opposed to just making random judgements from soccerbase stats?Feel free to correct me!Nibor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jiggers Posted October 4, 2005 Report Share Posted October 4, 2005 I don't know why we just don't cut down on our staff costs by getting rid of all our scouts and replace them with someone who can just scroll through soccerbase stats and find potential new talent.

StapleHillPhil Posted October 4, 2005 Report Share Posted October 4, 2005 Kevin James Profile I've spoken to my Forest supporting friend who says Kevin James is a fast and tricky right winger who can offer something slightly different, but has never been given a chance by Gary Megson. He was brought to Forest by Joe Kinnear on a tribunal from Gillingham where he was supposedly highly thought of.Sounds like he's got a bit of talent but his career has reached a crossroads. Fingers crossed he isnt John Burns MK2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still can't believe Megson hasn't given him a chance and that Forest would just let him go. He needs regular first team football and to curb his attitude but I reckon he'll do well wherever he ends up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
