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.
1.) 28 Jun 2023 13:02:32
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…….
3.) 30 Jun 2023 15:47:02
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 :)
4.) 30 Jun 2023 18:58:36
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. ??.
5.) 30 Jun 2023 20:37:05
Indeed bowie and the fishing has been fantastic too.
6.) 02 Jul 2023 10:47:54
Fishing. Now that is ? boring.
03 Oct 2022 22:37:38
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.
03 Apr 2022 15:03:23
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.

Quick one reds, who would you say was best manager since clough/ taylor? (Never give it to clough as individual) I'd still say Frank Clark. Brilliant football. Pressing and teamwork. Amazing signing on roy. Thhhtill think young chettle was brilliant.
1.) 01 Jun 2025 18:30:22
Id go with Clarke as well. I was talking to a friend who's a season card holder, I mentioned that I recalled a commentary on forest away to Northampton town after we were relegated from the championship. I believe Steve Hodge was with Darren Fletcher, Hodge said it would be a long time before forest signed any more world class players. We got to thinking did we ever have any world class players? We could only come up with Shilton and that was borderline. So have I missed anyone I'd be interested in any imput on that one.
2.) 01 Jun 2025 19:04:55
Just Shilton?
What about Francis, Anderson, walker, pearce, robbo, hodge, collymore, Webb, van breuklen and many many more, so yes we have had many world class players.
3.) 01 Jun 2025 19:16:38
Red Vale John Robertson was a magician.
Archie Gemmill, Stan Collymore, Pierre Van Hooijdonk Roy Keane, Jim Baxter, Terry Hennessy, Viv Anderson, Stuart Pearce, Tommy Gemmill, Des Walker,
Trevor Francis.
There’s a few there. Didn’t always play for us when at their peak but they did play for us.
Some didn’t get the recognition they deserved.
You’re a tough task master Vale
Shilton borderline? He sent strikers the wrong way ?
Hope we do sign some more or better still, discover one or two. ?.
4.) 01 Jun 2025 19:46:39
Yes add teddy sheringham to that list wilf.
5.) 01 Jun 2025 19:47:34
I agree wilfoldson they are great players but don't go with the world class tag. Maradona Messi beckenbowre and the Dutch forward cruffe can't spell his name. Ronaldo at his prime. i put them up there.
6.) 01 Jun 2025 19:52:37
Oh I forgot Pele pusgas and usabio. mind you those were in a league of their own.
7.) 01 Jun 2025 21:53:27
World class a matter of opinion then?
Maradona, Pele, cruff and some others are just legendary and above world class, but they still relied on their teammates, because that's what football is, a team game.
8.) 01 Jun 2025 21:54:48
Definitely Clarke. I really like Paul Hart as well.
9.) 01 Jun 2025 22:15:15
You forgot the original sir Stanley Matthews, who played way beyond retirement age.
10.) 02 Jun 2025 07:56:42
It is a high bar you’ve set Red Vale which on reflection possibly Shilton does go above it.
I liked Sherringham Skegg really class player.
There’s so many really good players who’ve worn that famous red shirt. My favourite is Robbo.
Unfortunately the latest news I’ve had is that he is quite poorly now. Met him several times and he was so humble. No superstar ego which probably why he never got the full recognition he deserved.
I bet Manny Katz still has nightmares about Robbo even now.
Best manager after Clough and Taylor?
David Platt by country mile ?.
11.) 02 Jun 2025 10:14:09
Manny Kaltz ?.
12.) 02 Jun 2025 11:42:54
No love for king billy? ?.
13.) 02 Jun 2025 16:07:13
King Billy will always be king as long as derby retains its rightful place as the worst team in premier history
Horrible little man who conned a living out of forest and not worked since.
14.) 02 Jun 2025 16:21:10
DTP i was taking the p**s??.
15.) 02 Jun 2025 16:30:56
And as far as managers go. I always liked Cotterill, shame Fawaz came in and sacked him, thought he did a decent job. ?.
16.) 02 Jun 2025 16:52:56
Winter I was taking the piss when I said I couldn't find anywhere in benidorm to watch psg vs inter, there where about 500 screens around ???
Just can't stand the little Scottish twit
Sure you mean Cotterell?
Not odriscoll?
17.) 02 Jun 2025 17:01:48
100% Steve Cotterill ?.
18.) 02 Jun 2025 17:04:01
Anyway thought you'd be enjoying your holiday DTP not coming on here, unless you've run out of redheads to burn?????.
19.) 02 Jun 2025 17:23:16
Loved it last day of my missus milking her 60th for last six weeks ????????????.
20.) 02 Jun 2025 18:29:50
Benidorm ? the skeg Vegas of Spain ?? no wonder you enjoy it there your a secret skeggy lover aren't you DTP ?.
21.) 02 Jun 2025 18:39:53
Skegs you read my mind? but i didn't wanna take the p**s anymore ?????.
22.) 02 Jun 2025 18:47:39
Let's be honest winter it's just a cheap hot skeg Vegas ??.
23.) 02 Jun 2025 19:14:29
Skegs i live in the holiday equivalent of auschwitz and i bet my tans better???.
24.) 02 Jun 2025 19:33:53
Winter ??.
25.) 02 Jun 2025 19:38:53
You'll need to try harder than that
Goodnight ??????.
26.) 02 Jun 2025 19:53:19
I'm not trying DTP pal. you mentioned before about skeggy being a cheap tacky place and so on. if I want to go home from home with the added sunshine cause that's all the difference I go benidorm mate just saying early night for you again. time for the usual cocoa before bed ??.
27.) 02 Jun 2025 19:54:17
Night DTP ???.
28.) 02 Jun 2025 20:11:01
Bring back fawaz and balloons I'm starting a protest ??.
29.) 02 Jun 2025 20:51:36
Where is Balloons? Skegs? Not seen him here for a while now?.
{Ed001's Note - he was banned for being toxic. There is far too much toxicity on here and it needs calming down. There are a few more on the edge as well.}
30.) 02 Jun 2025 22:15:28
How long is he banned for ed 1 and I know balloons well as a person. i couldn't of met a better person. great person and under all the banter a very kind person so I'm pretty insulted by your lack of intelligence about people and how you see people without knowing them first so add me to that list wouldn't want to waste my time here.
{Ed001's Note - ok bye bye.}
31.) 03 Jun 2025 00:11:33
Sad day ?.
32.) 03 Jun 2025 02:14:18
Yes I think so Bowie, going to miss the pair of them. They do give an alternative angle to debate.
33.) 03 Jun 2025 20:37:45
You won't miss them as they'll be back
Enjoy the peace and talking forest and football.
34.) 03 Jun 2025 21:06:48
Bit harsh DTP, i remember Skegs telling me off on your behalf. I love them both, as Vale said, they bring a different point of view. ?.
35.) 03 Jun 2025 21:18:30
What point of view is that then winter?
Other than trying to wind posters up all the time, I don't actually see any sort of point at all.
36.) 03 Jun 2025 21:44:54
DTP you've never tried to wind anyone up? ???.
37.) 03 Jun 2025 21:57:01
Was never an initial intention winter, I just retaliated to both of them as have many others on here for a valid reason.
38.) 03 Jun 2025 22:09:37
I'd rather have Rogie back on here posting ?.
39.) 05 Jun 2025 21:57:54
As jester said who are you mossy? We've been on here years. Just asking.
40.) 05 Jun 2025 22:51:20
Tbh Bowie
Jester wasn't calling mossy out at all, he was just saying non of us know who we will sign and we mostly get it wrong
Please read it again as it wasn't a personal dig at all.
41.) 05 Jun 2025 23:17:56
That was a doctake btw ?.
42.) 05 Jun 2025 23:34:29
I just feel it's all been wrong lately dtp. Just sad.
43.) 05 Jun 2025 23:39:36
Been coming for years.
44.) 06 Jun 2025 01:10:47
Bowie I've been posting on here years also!, if my post about having Rogie back posting, instead of your buddies who drove him of, I would, sorry if that upsets you?.
45.) 06 Jun 2025 14:16:09
Sorry mossy ?.
31 May 2025 17:45:55
Try all ya want with guessing games and lazy journalism. For me, I'd look for team players not individuals. The changing room been brilliant. Forest proved to the premier, anything can happen, but you need someone who's got your back. Not all about money.
1.) 31 May 2025 20:21:41
Baby Jesus is coming. Finally, we will have God on our side again, even if we don't have PGMOL!
2.) 01 Jun 2025 17:09:19
Good post doc, what an awesome season for Forest - no one was expecting jt.
I totally agree with you though, for where we were most of the season the end has to seen with a degree of disappointment. I doubt there is one fan not lamenting not taking 3 points from festa and musing over how easy it was - by the end. - for teams to nullify us at home. What a tough watch it was once we were given the football more then we wanted it. Easy is that - game generally over. who knows what might have happened had we have seized this once in a lifetime moment.
30 May 2025 17:55:42
Winter mate, Ian woan also one of my heroes, 1996 against the toon.
Woan could use his left peg, as a golfer does with an iron on a sunny day. Just pure brilliance. Btw crossley played amazing, another of my hero's. His stuff on YouTube, clough etc. 2nd to none.
1.) 30 May 2025 18:03:18
Stone and Woan were my first proper footballing heros and psycho of course. ?.
2.) 30 May 2025 18:33:34
Got pics of my oldest laddie on the pi## with stone, went on bender around the toon. When he was at Newcastle. He was a brilliant player 100% every game bless him.
3.) 30 May 2025 20:19:46
Did you supply them with knocked off vodka Bowie ??.
4.) 30 May 2025 20:30:17
Couldnt find em skegs, beats kiss my arse hats from you ??.
5.) 30 May 2025 21:17:42
No mate nothing beats kiss my ass hats I've sold plenty ??.
29 May 2025 19:18:52
Am I missing something here? Munmad/ dtp telling me we ain't got to player in toffolo. Ok reds I want to hear from all of ya on this player, who for me just gives everything, and btw can put a decent cross in? In or out. Wanna see those fingers.
1.) 29 May 2025 20:25:31
Keep him, always seems to put a shift in, looks totally committed.
Unfortunately i don't think he's a premier league starter but definitely good backup ?.
2.) 29 May 2025 20:33:12
So you want to keep a player on 20k a week just because you like him?
And where us he going to play?
Unreal.
3.) 29 May 2025 20:39:22
Backup left back lol. Williams isn't a left back he's right footed unless in all your wisdom DTP you have missed that?
Aina/ Williams RB
New player/ Toffolo LB
???.
4.) 29 May 2025 21:17:36
What you've missed winter us that nuno doesn't play toffolo, he prefers willuams or aina and moreno, who goes back to villa, so why would he suddenly start picking him?
Think his contract is up anyway
Tine to move on from the likes of toffolo as he's hardly played since he came to forest, simply not good enough, just championship pkayer.
5.) 29 May 2025 21:29:52
Toffolo out of contract come end of June
Pointless arguments, good lad but not up to prem or European standards, how many games he played anyway.
6.) 29 May 2025 21:31:19
Not missed nowt, so i'm guessing you wanna fork out for two new LBs?
Moreno was dropped because he's sh***, like i said Toff probably isn't a starter but he's a good backup option (think conference league and extra games)
Williams has had a great second half of the season for a square peg in a round hole, same as Aina did when he first arrived and was played LB. ?.
7.) 29 May 2025 21:34:52
And being honest i think Nuno has about ten games and Mr M will pull the trigger unless we're top six. ?.
8.) 29 May 2025 22:05:49
Amazing. Heated discussion about Harry Toffolo of all people.
Harry has done nothing wrong, unfortunately for him he was signed for the same reason as O'brien and Bowler were signed so he is obviously not a player for a team looking to crash the top 6.
Thank you Harry, good luck and we look to sign better.
9.) 29 May 2025 22:16:27
Gazzi ?????.
10.) 29 May 2025 22:17:15
Not really heated, i think it was a sensible debate. Mind you sensible and me? ??.
11.) 29 May 2025 22:23:26
We love toffolo ?.
12.) 29 May 2025 22:23:44
And to be fair like its said above its all pretty pointless as none of us have any input into who stays, plays and goes.
??????.
13.) 29 May 2025 23:19:41
Toffolo is Management Material, as I've said before. I'd keep him to get his coaching badges but not on the same wages we are paying now. He could help with the team in other ways.
14.) 29 May 2025 23:20:30
Toffalo will take the well worn road from Forest to Sheffield Utd.
15.) 30 May 2025 00:28:49
I don't have to agree with you gazz, nuno or dtp. I see a player in toffolo. Hence the discussion and reaction to it matey. Isn't that what this is about. And to you all. You don't know the camaraderie between player and coach. Or even his approach to coaching and fitness, All I am saying, is I see a player in toffolo. Don't have to agree with dtp evertime he puts a post up. Just saying.
16.) 30 May 2025 00:56:02
@bowie I've made it my personal mission in life not too ???.
17.) 30 May 2025 09:11:28
I like Harry Toffolo. He’s turned a big negative into a positive. He speaks well and has an ambassadorial role within the club. When he’s played he gives100%
He may not be what we need for the future, but if he stays it will be because he has an input into the team.
If he goes he will make an excellent captain particularly at championship level.
I wish him well.
18.) 30 May 2025 09:36:16
Bowie, I agree with you mate.
I also disagree with you at times. No problem either way, just a difference of opinion.
You think Harry is good enough to offer another contract, I don't think he is. We move on.
19.) 30 May 2025 11:13:29
?? gazz.
20.) 30 May 2025 13:58:26
Was surprised when they bought Toffollo in, hasn't let us down and been instrumental in building the team togetherness. Forest could offer him a new contract but would if thought they would of done that by now if they intended to keep him as backup lb or backup cb on the left of 3 man defence. But I think Harry will want to be playing regular for next couple of years so may well end up at a club in championship next year, so all the best Harry and we need to find someone better than williams to push Williams to get better.
28 May 2025 18:27:21
Question for ya reds, now that salt and whingekar has gone,
Who would be your main presenter for bbc MOTD?
I just hope it'd no lassie please plz please not sexist at all, just sick of the sight of them overpowering this amazing game. And for what reason.
1.) 28 May 2025 19:42:03
Already announced it made, 3 sharing the job. Mark Chapman, who does MOTD2, Gabby Logan and Kelly Keats.
2.) 28 May 2025 19:53:05
Me and balloons co presenters would be the highlight of everyone's week ?.
3.) 28 May 2025 20:45:34
DTP and Rogie.
4.) 28 May 2025 20:57:03
Fred Elliott.
5.) 28 May 2025 21:06:26
Don't care not watched it for ages, but no doubt it will be a very bbc left wing let's look out for the minority appointment.
6.) 28 May 2025 22:18:13
Sorry Ripley I'm busy presenting gardeners world ??.
7.) 28 May 2025 22:25:30
This will make ya happy Bowie, i already know who they'll be. Mark Chapman, Gabby Logan and Kelly Cates
???.
8.) 28 May 2025 22:28:10
One good one out if three then?
9.) 28 May 2025 22:28:15
But if i could choose anyone i reckon Mortimer and Whitehouse would do a great job ?.
10.) 28 May 2025 22:47:51
MotD has not been relevant for years!.
11.) 29 May 2025 11:05:57
I record it and fast forward in between the matches so don't care who presents it, it could be Mary Berry and Alan Titchmarsh for DPT ???.
12.) 31 May 2025 18:16:22
Mark Chapman, slavers to co presenters. Clueless on football. Knows more american football. other two made their way from persil tablet adverts. Ok ok. The odd game on women's football vs fester etc,
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.
30 Jun 2023 18:58:36

You stay on here proud red vale. True red. Hence me asking ya back. ? and thank you sir.
12 Jun 2025 19:40:02
Btw don't give winter a hard time. Then do it yourself? Thumbs up. Rubber bullets for the skegs two ?.
