Heard a strange rumour, now I've heard this same one from two different toon fans. So neves is off to saudi. Now when there they loan him to Newcastle, which keeps the toon fair play better the saudis pay his wages but the toon pay a loan fee? Don't get me wrong we probably do it with the olympiacos. But the whole thing stinks for me. Again just a rumour.

Bowie I hope the Saudi league takes off and shrinks the stinking money available to the premier league.
2.) 28 Jun 2023 16:50:11
Keep your head on Rutland…….

In the main, the Saudi league will be full of second-rate South Americans, greedy Africans and past-it Europeans, with one or two exceptions.
It was said in the 90's that the MLS would rock the football World, it was said in the 00's that China was going to buy all the World's best players. Now it's the Saudi's turn to fantasise about creating the World's number one league.
It will never, ever have the same gravitas as the big European leagues. It's just doesn't have the history or tradition and I doubt it ever will.
Wouldn't mind seeing Dennis move there for £20mil though. They can have Shelvey on a free too :)

Always love your posts wonky son, keep em coming. Your knowledge is unreal at times. i remember a while ago saying you were unfortunate not to be able to get to games. Hopefully the change will come my friend. And your music background wasn't too bad too. Take care for now. Rutters you can't have any complaints on your golf with the summer greens mate. Hope you've enjoyed this green and pleasant land which so many of us take for granted. ??.

Indeed bowie and the fishing has been fantastic too.
6.) 02 Jul 2023 10:47:54
Fishing. Now that is ? boring.

I called on rafa Benitez to be next forest manager. Just seen on forest site he's been talked about. ? told ya balloons ?
1.) 05 Oct 2022 11:15:29
He wants Wolves not us sez it all.
26 Jul 2022 14:55:18
As i messed up with loan to buy. i'm old school i still think players have there studs checked for aluminium. Before the get on the pitch. Can someone please explain (pay as you play) surely this isn't as it comes over. How much does a player get if they don't get a game ED could you enlighten me please ?
{Ed002's Note - Such contracts are rare and typical comprise a. a low base payment, b. an "availability" payment, c. an additional payment for being selected.}
1.) 27 Jul 2022 00:17:04
Pay to play gets mentioned a lot Bowie, but I honestly can't remember anyone being signed in the Prem (or anywhere) on this sort of deal for a long time now.
It was normally for players at the end of their career/ injury prone.
2.) 27 Jul 2022 10:39:16
Yea, pay-as-you-play is a bit old fashioned but I think what people mean is, they'd prefer to see a player like Ramsey offered a performanced-based deal, rather than a high basic wage every week.
So instead of offering him £100k a week, you might offer £50k a week, plus bonuses for appearances, goals, and team wins etc. which might total £100k if he's playing and performing.
No one wants a croc on the books at £100k a week.

Rumours on Newcastle wanting brennan for 50 million. Crazy not to . i know its only rumours but surely he's worth more than 20 mil.
1.) 03 Apr 2022 17:18:04
Think it’s more that they want 50 miilion for maximon which would free up money for them to try and get Brennan. So not 50 million but would put the price up a certain amount 🤷ðŸ»â€â™‚ï¸.
2.) 04 Apr 2022 12:52:51
I think in Johnson and spence we have gold on our hands. I think, even if we fail to go up this season then Forest need to think bigger picture with holding on to Johnson and pushing the boat out to get spence. It’s around these two that building for the future will be massive for confidence and attracting the quality needed to maintain that big push.
3.) 14 Apr 2022 02:10:31
Without promotion we have zero chance of signing spence would need a bid of around 20 Mill we just don't have that money.
27 Jan 2022 08:28:48
Carvalho in for his medical today, good luck in the future, spending our cash.
1.) 27 Jan 2022 18:24:03
I'm curious that we must have some attack minded players coming in as taylor and carvalho going out leaves us a little short if we pick up injuries and suspensions.

Reds I've met most and loved ya all. Hate the way it's all going. Understand all your frustrations. But please let's just try to get on. again my apologies for venting on certain posters. As one reds. FTID.
1.) 21 Mar 2026 11:22:13
Well said, Bowie, mate... Welcome back!
13 Mar 2026 17:00:45
Just reading down. One poster, (well done fat man) which for me shouldn't have been shown. I mean really. This man's passion is unbelievable. Not like he's paying out minimum wage with chips. Get your heads out. Makes me sick this game we are supposed to love.
Again, remember lock down and nobody helping lower clubs, what do they do. They feed the little kids with more money than sense. Really really annoys me. Big m doesn't play chim, he just keeps on giving. Pathetic the lot of ya.
1.) 13 Mar 2026 17:49:15
You gone bit early tonight, mate. ??
2.) 13 Mar 2026 18:22:38
Referring to last night's result. I'll quote Clough:
"If anybody's daft enough to write us off."
Well, they're right to. Not a hope in hell's chance of turning that round.
3.) 13 Mar 2026 18:41:01
Stripey, it's the frustration of our players. I get fed up with it, bud. The money man just keeps on giving.
4.) 13 Mar 2026 19:28:16
Not all of us, Bowie.
5.) 13 Mar 2026 19:37:07
Actually, my apologies, Perko. ? Just running my heart on empty, bud.
6.) 13 Mar 2026 19:46:51
Bowie, I'm with you - love Big M, and people should realise where this club would be without him. Where do you honestly think Forest would be playing under a different owner? He's the lifeblood of our club.
He's made mistakes - we all make mistakes in life. Edu was the worst, but that's for history now. Thank you, Mr M - I may not follow anymore, but in all honesty, you saved our club. You really did.
7.) 13 Mar 2026 19:50:29
Well said, Froggy, my friend. ?
8.) 13 Mar 2026 19:59:46
I get your frustrations and I'm with you, brother. ?
9.) 14 Mar 2026 16:06:19
Cheers Perko, bud. ?
12 Mar 2026 20:00:07
Well, here we go. For the £50 payers, rattle your jewellery. For the £15, clap your hands. Coyr. The diamond, just ignore my emerald.
09 Mar 2026 21:05:53
We are still, studded with dinosaurs, the approach, the defence playing out, the set pieces to the backroom staff. If most teams use puppets, we had the Muppets. I mean stoned and woan. What did they actually bring to the table? Gonzo, Kermit, Miss Piggy as a boss.
Actually same voice. You always hear players etc telling ya what they think. Cannot remember once hearing any good things. Ok, probably just me.
09 Mar 2026 20:35:08
Ok ok know you've all had enough of the Nuno situation. But as I put in for PIP hoping for a free bubble car to run the fields of a City Ground lawn. As my car will be upturned in turmoil. I can only look out in hope. But the last time I seen a good team running free and believing, with an unbelievable togetherness.
Massive towards a unit. Was really under that laddie. Now I'm not saying Reds to get the laddie back. All I ask for is, someone to please bring that harmony back. That belief. Not easy. But my what a mess of a season. Tbh I said the defence kept out head above water 1st 1/2 but this 2nd half the midfield has actually started fighting back. Successfully. Well still got my doubts. But any hope is hope. FTID.
1.) 09 Mar 2026 22:00:58
Nuno best since our Frank Clark. ?
2.) 09 Mar 2026 22:27:43
Nuno the magician works his magic again tonight. Boy, do I miss actually winning games and looking forward to better things. Oh well, onwards and downwards, we reap what we sow.
3.) 09 Mar 2026 23:01:29
Yeah, great stuff. West Ham get extra time and an extra game, and Somerville gets a knock. Great night's work for Forest.
4.) 10 Mar 2026 05:21:28
West Ham keep that winning mentality, Stevie boy. It works miracles. Forest had one last season.
5.) 10 Mar 2026 06:42:02
Yes, they're on a colossal winning run, so much so that they're still in the relegation zone, below us. You keep telling us what a 'basket case' we are. They'll probably drop off at the business end of the season, just like we did last season under your boyfriend.
It stuns me that you think Nuno is doing a good job there. Look at where they are. They did the most Nuno thing ever last night and threw a lead away in their 2-2 'win'.
6.) 10 Mar 2026 08:59:34
Stevie, my old friend. Everyone thought West Ham were done and relegated a month ago. Now they're on the same points as us, and into the quarter-finals of the FA Cup. It's a sign of a good manager when he puts the best team out for cup games, even when the Premier League should be the priority.
It gives the whole team a boost now. Anybody think West Ham won't go down?
7.) 10 Mar 2026 09:26:23
Oh, I get it, Skegs. After 29 games, being 3rd bottom, on the same points but with a worse goal difference than a team that's had 4 managers in a season and has been described as a "basket case" on here, is the sign of a good manager. I'm glad you've cleared that up for me.
8.) 10 Mar 2026 10:07:40
He's not just a good manager. He's been one of our best managers, the proof is in the pudding from last season. Well, except the odd few on here he proved wrong, who are still angry about that. ?
9.) 10 Mar 2026 11:00:50
Skegs, he's been found out, he was found out at the back end of last season, that's why West Ham are in the relegation zone, that's why we dropped from champions league places to conference.
one half decent season does not make nuno one of our best managers ever, and he tried to sabotage the start to our season, he tried to sabotage our European squad, he refused to even talk to our club record signing.
I hope he takes West Ham down, it will be his just desserts, you can continue to kiss his a*** if you like, but he stabbed this club in the back. I'm not going to talk anymore about him.
10.) 10 Mar 2026 11:30:51
I don't know why your so full of anger stevie.i mean coming out with boyfriend kiss ass etc.maybe you going through a bad time buddy i'm here if you want a chat.if I remember rightly stevie boy nuno got a bunch of no chancers to the conference league position pal not any forest fan would of put money on that and as for bottling I would near the end of the season not half way pal the squad players weren't good enough fact.anyway you have your opinion I have mine agree to disagree but my opinion is one of the best managers we've had and he deserved the pay off.because the owner wouldn't back him listened to edu instead look where that's got us no more to be said really
11.) 10 Mar 2026 16:25:30
Skegs, do you actually read back your own posts? You should see some of the things you say to other people. Don't forget, I'm not the one who's been banned and changed my name about 4 times. I've been called a clown, a dickhead, and a fat b****** on here, yet some get indignant and threaten not to post anymore because someone disagrees with them in a slightly sarcastic way.
Usual double standards by some, so I'm sure you'll get over me referring to Nuno as your boyfriend, because, as we all know, he isn't, is he? He's almost certainly got better taste than that.
12.) 10 Mar 2026 16:33:31
They are horrible people calling you a fat b******. If you need a hug, mate, I'm here for you. Anytime you're down, Sunny Skeg, pal, we will have a pint together and a bit of banter, my pal. ?
13.) 10 Mar 2026 16:52:59
Skegs. ??
14.) 10 Mar 2026 19:54:34
Stevie, remember last season when we got off to a flier and you said, see where we are in another 10 games?
I called you out and brought you out of exile, and fair play to you as you responded.
The fact you even said, let's see where we are, showed a contempt and lack of confidence in Nuno at the time, which back then was unfounded.
What I see now, not only from you but from a few others in the Nuno out brigade, is what can only be described as doubling down.
You know you were wrong, but you refuse, out of stubbornness, to admit it.
Hand on heart, now even the staunchest member of the Nuno out brigade cannot say they wish Marinakis had not swallowed his pride and given Nuno the signings he wanted and not sacked him?
15.) 10 Mar 2026 20:08:28
Fred, I was never in the Nuno out brigade, I was in the 'I'll believe when I see it' brigade, slightly different. Yes, he proved me wrong last season, but why does everyone seem to think he's doing a great job at West Ham? They're 3rd bottom, and he's been there 95% of the season.
16.) 10 Mar 2026 20:19:48
Yes, I agree with you on that. When he took the West Ham job, I think they were only a point behind us (courtesy of a 3-0 win at our place under Potter).
He has, in fact, then managed to take only one more point than the three managers we've got through. ?
15 Aug 2025 22:43:59
Still up for Charlton brothers me.
12 Nov 2024 17:58:33
Thing is he's got to lot better chance of playing of showing himself off at the city ground.
