four coaches i'd go for in the summer
Silva
Cooper
Irola
Carrick and in reverse order.
1.) 07 Feb 2026 23:31:32
Might as well just name everyone that isn't Dyche. that's pretty much how i feel. I'd watch things closely at Spurs, i think Frank would be perfect for us. ?.
2.) 08 Feb 2026 11:07:06
Mr Marinakis prefers Spanish/ Portuguese coach's so my choice would be doubtful to be chosen, but the Bodo Glint coach Kjetil Knutsen will soon be pursued by a big European team, why not Forest.
27 Jan 2026 09:37:24
Douglas luiz on his way to villa
Probably a good thing as it hasn't worked out with injuries
Pity though a good player.
1.) 27 Jan 2026 11:09:19
Good business by Villa, sold Luiz to keep with in PSR, now get him back till end of season on wages.
2.) 28 Jan 2026 01:57:23
Luiz is back to villa, awonyi staying along with Jesus, I've not heard mateta other than he won't be there next season but that's said of glasnner, talks on going I guess, a midfield will be signed on deadline day.
13 Jan 2026 22:50:53
Look all these players that get mentioned rarely happen in any window
We are spent up unless we sell Anderson
Rumour has ut that the board isn't happy with the comments made by dyche after the Wrexham game and some aren't happy with recent performances
Personally think we will stick till end of season, but a bad defeat Saturday and anything other than a win against wolves could change things
Either way he's gone by end of may.
1.) 14 Jan 2026 10:38:43
He was 100% correct to criticise the players that are asking to play then perform like they did against Wrexham. I've got no problem with that. Only problem I've got with Dyche is his lack of tactical nous.
2.) 14 Jan 2026 21:00:51
I think Silva will come at end of the season.
3.) 14 Jan 2026 22:34:44
I think sane monty
Anyway up i can't see marinakis sticking with dyche.
4.) 15 Jan 2026 10:05:09
Just to play devils advocate, what happens if we win the Europa league? Do you still think Mr M will wield the axe? ?.
5.) 15 Jan 2026 12:03:37
The question is would Mr Marinakis trust Sean to progress in the Champions League?.
6.) 15 Jan 2026 12:51:51
Bloody hope not mossy ??.
7.) 15 Jan 2026 13:32:15
I can't see us qualifying for the knockouts let alone winning it.
8.) 15 Jan 2026 15:16:52
?Ravers you have been rumbled. ?.
16 Dec 2025 21:55:28
Looking like spurs will listen to offers for jonno?
Love to have him back.
1.) 17 Dec 2025 09:07:48
We wouldn't have to drop anyone out of the squad if we sign him as he counts as a home grown at your own club player.
2.) 17 Dec 2025 10:52:36
I’d have Johnno back. Depends on how young Bakwa shapes up when he gets a proper chance. Especially with Ndoye out of form. First choice wingers are CHO and Hutch so Johnno will have to wait his chance.
The only problem I can see is that Johnson Senior would have to invest in a new scarf ?! ?.
3.) 17 Dec 2025 12:11:56
Just shows, the first team who bid for Johnson was Brentford, not necessarily wanted by Frank?, yes I'd have him back, still young but know has Premier league and European experience.
4.) 17 Dec 2025 13:43:07
Would be a great fit for our side, has got goals in him, would be welcomed back into the club with a far stronger squad than he left. Must admit the last couple of games young Hutchinson has impressed me, not only with offensive work but tracking back also. Also Elanga struggling to impress, he will be the next one muted for a move.
5.) 18 Dec 2025 14:15:44
The Spurs fans I've spoke to don't like jonno at all. Even though he was their top league goal scorer last season. From the wing. I don't understand football fans sometimes.
6.) 18 Dec 2025 19:12:29
My thoughts are that he's learned his trade as a winger, I niw believe both he and CHO could play as deep strikers and use their pace through the middle, like I say would love to have him back
Ndoye I think we would get our money back as a lot of italyeamz would be interested
To me sell ndoye and get jonno back.
7.) 18 Dec 2025 19:12:44
I think Spurs will want to make a profit on him and he cost them £48 million odd. So it will upwards of 50. I'd look elsewhere.
8.) 19 Dec 2025 09:55:06
I’m not so sure after his spell at Spurs his value has gone down rather than up. If he’s not getting games he will want out. Would be a great player in our squad, would get more game time at Forest.
Rotating CHO, Hutchinson and Johnson would give us real options. Dan Ndoye has struggled, made a bright start but has for some reason not established himself.
9.) 19 Dec 2025 10:25:18
Ravers, I don’t think they’ll get their £48m back on Johnno mate. They’ll be lucky to get half that back. Could be a good loan deal with option to buy for us in January?
10.) 19 Dec 2025 18:54:06
I'd go with that Stokey. Hopefully, he has realised that 'the grass isn't always greener on the other side'. I reckon his heart is still with Forest.
11.) 19 Dec 2025 20:22:17
He could be open for a return, he not going be first choice at spurs with Kudus there. The squad forest have got now is better than when he left. Reckon a bid of 35m would be enough for Spurs to think about it. Reckon villa will make a move though.
12.) 20 Dec 2025 16:32:20
I know think Elanga will come back to us, and Anderson will return to Newcastle, and we get about 50 million profit!. I think Elanga made a mistake and Anderson would love to return home, unfortunately it means Johnson ends up at Palace or Bournemouth ?.
13.) 20 Dec 2025 22:42:31
Never understood why Eddie howe so desperately wanted elanga?
He had Murphy, Gordon, and Harvey Barnes already and has now made him 4th choice
Ruining his career but has a nice wage coming in.
14.) 22 Dec 2025 17:13:12
If Anderson does leave, I don't think it will be for Newcastle.
I think his ambitions are much higher that them.
Liverpool, Man City or Real Madrid is his destination imo.
{Ed001's Note - I hope you are right with your first suggestion! Fantastic player who would improve pretty much any team in the world.}
15.) 22 Dec 2025 19:22:48
If Ando goes i can see it being to Arsenal, he would suit their system and style. ?.
18 Nov 2025 08:28:36
Looks like we are interested in lames garner along with Newcastle and villa, Dyche a big fan.
1.) 18 Nov 2025 13:58:04
I don't think the feelings mutual, Garner said some things about the style of play under Dyche, what wasn't complimentary!, still a bit harsh calling him "Lame". ?.
2.) 20 Nov 2025 12:06:24
Maybe a short term contract as Sangare will probably be at Afcon. ?.
3.) 20 Nov 2025 12:06:50
In January i meant to put. ?.
4.) 20 Nov 2025 21:39:18
He's not for free in January and afcon starts in December, so wouldn't work.
5.) 21 Nov 2025 09:58:29
I know that, minimal fee January though. ?.
6.) 21 Nov 2025 20:11:53
So a minimal fee and a short contract?
Yes Garner will sign that all day long
Whats not to like about that deal? ???.
7.) 21 Nov 2025 20:30:16
I wouldn't want to sign anyone with the first name "Lames" anyway DTP, you seem to be voicing your opinion loads lately, have you sent in your C. V. to big Mr M as a potential replacement for Edu?
Get a grip man, he's championship quality, had one decent season on loan with us way back when and since has done absolutely zero.
Stop living in the past ???.
8.) 21 Nov 2025 20:45:45
Scraping the barrel winter
Whoops I forgot you don't voice your opinion at all ????.
9.) 21 Nov 2025 21:40:01
Yep you continue laughing at yourself, hilarious ???.
10.) 21 Nov 2025 21:55:13
No your the laughy stock
And all there for anyone to read ???.
11.) 22 Nov 2025 00:28:59
Hmmm Illiterate comes to mind, get off the high horse, hang on in layman's terms.
U spells n speaks bad like, tis a difference between their n there and anyone who thunks diffucuze is onie idiotic.
P. S i tis dount lovie our interchanges DTP ???.

Suprised we are looking at Beto from Everton.
Handful at times but misses alot of oppurtunaties.
Cheap though and could be a late developer?
1.) 27 Jul 2026 06:19:55
To be fair, DTP, Beto isn't going to get any better than he is now. Sadly, you're either born with that edge, Collymore, Kane, Lineker, Fowler, Keegan (RIP), Woody, Birthed, or you're not. Forest are better off investing elsewhere. Get a young, quality striker, not a Scouse cast-off!
2.) 27 Jul 2026 09:19:07
No thanks to Beto. Just reading, we have offered Read a 5 year contract and he is expected to sign in the next couple of days. ??
3.) 27 Jul 2026 10:08:15
Need to for Mateta. Beto could not hit a barn door from 4 yards.
4.) 27 Jul 2026 11:00:37
Typical Forest going for Betomax when everyone else is getting VHS (Very High quality Strikers). ?
5.) 27 Jul 2026 13:05:01
Beto!
Surely more lazy journalism.
We don't need crap, we need quality.
24 Jul 2026 23:39:04
Queston edd is any other site so diverese as this one?
Lots of different opinions and certaintly lots of off football topics?
Is that the same nationwide on your forums?
{Ed001's Note - this is one of the least diverse, you are all clearly white British males, most of the sites have input from many nations.}
1.) 25 Jul 2026 07:38:25
Sorry about that Ed .???
2.) 25 Jul 2026 10:05:56
I've got a fantastic tan this year. ??
3.) 25 Jul 2026 12:57:23
Lol, I'm still chuckling. DTP thinks this is a diverse site on here; different opinions, of course, but crikey. ?
4.) 25 Jul 2026 20:22:57
When I said diverse, I meant the way we talk, we'll argue about other subjects, Ginger.
Obviously lost in translation.
24 Jul 2026 20:57:30
J6st a question
Do we really need a striker?
To me we have four and three are looking good in preseason.
Iv'e always said Jesys will be a far better player this season, purely because he's had a sumner break from football after coming from the end of the braziilian season straight into ours, Kaleamundo, Dyche didn't like but scores goals and still young
Wood always reliable and Awonyi looks back to his fitest best and still relatively young.
I personally would not be worried if we don't sign a striker.
1.) 24 Jul 2026 23:46:47
I agree.
We are probably top heavy. All 4 of our strikers could come good. However, he will probably only play one.
He will play with one striker, with 2 behind.
So we have MGW, McAtee, CHO, Ndoye and Hutchinson competing for two positions.
Likewise, we have Sangare, Shlager, Domingues and Yates competing for 2 positions. I think at least one more central midfielder will come in.
The area we are short in, looking at Glasner's preferred formation, is wing backs.
We have Aina, Williams and the German lad. We will need at least one more quality addition.
As far as the back 3, we have the 3M's, Cunha and Abbott. Hope the Diomande transfer comes through.
Also, I think Aina would be more than capable of playing on the right side of a back 3.
So, wing backs seem to be where we need reinforcements.
2.) 24 Jul 2026 23:50:22
I'm on that same page 67.
3.) 25 Jul 2026 09:10:26
Good analysis 67. ??
4.) 25 Jul 2026 12:33:10
Don't dismiss Netz. He will get better and better.
21 Jul 2026 23:08:54
Anthony Taylor retires from refereeing. He won't be missed.
1.) 22 Jul 2026 08:13:59
He didn't do Forest any favours! He's retired because VAR is being used to show up the mistakes he and his colleagues make week in and week out!

Why an obsession who it could be?
Does it really matter?
28 May 2026 21:33:19
They'll get hit with embargo. ?
18 Feb 2026 18:40:28
Really, Skeggs? We are going to lose those three anyway. Milenkovic, Cho, Hutchinson, Williams, Aina, Jesus, Sangare, Ndoye, Dominguez will all fetch big bucks regardless if we get relegated. Just remember, Skeggs, most of the players who were part of Nuno's side are still here.
13 Feb 2026 23:18:57
Tbh I've only had one court case and I won, hear say is irrelevant as its not possible to prove
Its al about actually facts and evidence?
Short statement but true.
13 Feb 2026 22:40:12
No one will know what really happened
But putting it simply, marinakis wasn't impressed with the performance against Palace Leeds and wolves and neither was i or the vast majority of supporters?
So whoever he chose to speak to player wise is irrelevant
He obviously wanted to hear from a players point of view, but in reality had decided to axe dyche anyway and rightly so.
01 Aug 2026 23:23:10
You've seen Murillo play there, so have we all, and he didn't want to. Did you see that, Stokey?
01 Aug 2026 23:03:11
John Stones went there days ago, Stokey.
I've been camping in a field, but knew that.
Quit trying to be clever, it really don't suit. ?
01 Aug 2026 22:00:12
Please don't take this the wrong way but what have you actually seen to come to this conclusion?
I've seen nothing to be worried about
Newcastle have lost all their best players plus the coach reseigning,now that's when you start worrying
Other than spurs not many sides have added to their squads
Like iv'e said world cup got in the way of transfers
01 Aug 2026 22:21:38
Always said the same, 67.
01 Aug 2026 22:02:34
We all know Murillo can't play left back or centre midfield barring a few, 67. ??
