Kali has left on loan!
That leaves Jesus and Awonyi?
Hmmmmm ?.
1.) 02 Jan 2026 14:01:36
See below.
2.) 02 Jan 2026 14:03:29
Nottingham Forest have agreed a deal with Eintracht Frankfurt for striker Arnaud Kalimuendo to leave the club just months after he joined, according to Sky Sports Germany journalist Florian Plettenberg.
3.) 02 Jan 2026 14:43:53
Sean Dyche seems to take against certain player's and doesn't give em a far chance, did the same to O'Brien at Everton. If Kalimuendo has left can only think someone's lined up to come to us.
4.) 02 Jan 2026 20:43:00
Rumour has it that Kalimuendo was not a great trainer which, on 40 grand a week, would get up my nose as well Mossy! ☹️.
5.) 02 Jan 2026 21:58:05
The problem is Stokey, John Robertson wasn't great at training, the great players usually had an adversion to it, mentioned a few in a previous post, not saying Kalimuendo would be anywhere near there greatness, but Sean Dyches mantra is a player has to do the "Hard Yards" yet the team looked shattered against Everton.
6.) 03 Jan 2026 11:38:45
Kalimuendo on the bench today, seems he can be in two places at once??.
7.) 07 Jan 2026 18:55:30
Clough was a one off and allowed players to have a cigarette at half time let the go out on the pi55 so long as they performed when needed so Robbo was also a one off over weight and unfit but his performance on the pitch didn't suffer.
8.) 07 Jan 2026 20:20:18
Fair enough but Kalimuendo is no John Robertson. He was in a League of his own mate!
09 Jul 2025 18:38:37
No idea if there is any truth in this?
According to Sports Mole on Nottingham Forest 24 7 site MGW has agreed personal term's with Man City! ?????.
1.) 09 Jul 2025 20:31:22
Nah. McAtee possibly coming our way, MGW staying.
2.) 10 Jul 2025 07:55:39
Sky reckon we are trying to sign McAtee now as well. We do need players who are from an English Academy to meet the regulations:-
At least eight players must be "homegrown, " meaning they were trained by the club or another club in the same national association for at least three years between the ages of 15 and 21. A separate List B exists for younger players (born on or after January 1st of a specific year) who have been at the club for at least two consecutive years.
McAtee qualifies as a home-grown.
3.) 10 Jul 2025 09:19:38
McAtee absolutely useless having watched all of the U21 performances. Also my mate who's a Man City season ticket holder - goes home and away every week says he's Championship class and money for him welcome! If this is true relegation battle coming.
4.) 10 Jul 2025 16:27:35
McAtee. no thanks.
26 Aug 2024 17:23:14
Will Gimenez come?
More twists and turns than a Helter Skelter!
Apparently he's changed his mind!
Was he coming at all?
The joy's of a being a Forest Fan!
Frustrating, nail biting yet enjoyable not knowing what is happening regarding transfers! ?????.
1.) 26 Aug 2024 18:32:24
Wish it was enjoyable. Predictable as in a here we go again.
2.) 26 Aug 2024 21:43:09
Seems the Mexican doesn't fancy Forest, we certainly don't need anyone who doesn't want to be at the WFCG.
3.) 26 Aug 2024 21:56:22
If he doesn't want to or he's not sure about the move then we should move on.
4.) 27 Aug 2024 08:54:50
It’s a classic Mexican standoff imo……??.
5.) 27 Aug 2024 10:16:38
He isn’t coming. Thinks he’s too god for us. **** him! He can sit in leverkusens reserves. Prick.
6.) 27 Aug 2024 11:15:20
Probably because he is, Tricky. Challenging for League titles and playing continental football or a relegation battle? Hmmm. Now let me think about that one.
7.) 27 Aug 2024 18:01:05
Its more than likely a game for higher wages I think.
8.) 27 Aug 2024 21:20:47
Another one has rejected a move to Forest. Brobbey from Ajax apparently. His agent said he won't send his player to just any club and it's got to be a good move. Allegedly anyway.
9.) 28 Aug 2024 00:18:25
It's a pity the Black Orchid has closed, made Roy Keane the man he is?.
10.) 28 Aug 2024 07:08:23
Black Orchid is a blast from the past, Vespa. I used to love going there on a Friday night.
11.) 28 Aug 2024 18:43:01
Black boy did a nice Bernie.
12.) 28 Aug 2024 23:08:48
Is it in the contract that he could be dragged kicking and screaming to play in Greece, regardless what he wants.
13.) 29 Aug 2024 19:33:48
Just given Forest the "Mexican Wave".
26 Aug 2024 13:51:05
Gimenez deal all but done apparently?
Was Eddie N just a smoke screen?
1.) 26 Aug 2024 15:04:02
Probably all part of the "Poker" game RiR.
2.) 26 Aug 2024 15:35:25
More than likely.

Well lads for keeping us up.
The ref was dire and clueless.
VP has done an amazing job. I hope he gets an opportunity to show what he can do with a pre season and new players.
Yes key players will without doubt leave.
However, life goes on and players can be replaced.
Questions to all of you.
Who would like to see gone?
Personally I'd keep Hutchinson and McAtee as I believe they are improving.
Jesus is hit and miss for me.
Bakwa and Morato definitely need to go along with Kalimuendo.
Anderson, Murillo and MGW will be gone but the price tag for each will be high.
Last and not least, the Big Greek Mr. M finally got it right with VP, and hopefully valuable lessons have been learnt this season.
08 May 2026 14:20:55
Wow, some of the fickle posts on here are astonishing.
Forest have done well to get where they did despite a heavy loss last night.
Villa are a very good team and with a weakened Forest team we were playing against all odds.
No doubt VP will dress down the team and praise them, he'll encourage them to play the remainder of games to the best of their abilities.
Look, yes, we didn't get to the final but it's still a great achievement.
COYR!
1.) 08 May 2026 14:43:43
We might as well not have been in the competition. To not turn up in the biggest game for years is unforgivable.
2.) 08 May 2026 14:53:23
I agree, Skegs, no respect for the traveling fans & the followers at home.
3.) 08 May 2026 15:07:09
Load of crap. No player decides not to turn up for a semi final. See, we l8st a game, balloons, and you're back with your nonsense.
We had no recognised right back, for starters.
Too many injuries, that was bound to catch up with us eventually.
Yes, Ripley, they soon forget Sunderland, Burnley and Chelsea.
4.) 08 May 2026 15:28:08
Don't know what you watched last night, but no player turned up. And anyone who says different is deluded. Made the Aston Villa team that played Spurs look like world-class players. Shocking and unforgivable. Cost me 12 quid for my crate of beer and 10 quid for my chicken gyros. That was 22 quid wasted and 2 hours of my life watching that s****.
5.) 08 May 2026 15:31:33
We won't forget Villa though.
6.) 08 May 2026 15:37:17
The best one was "They're deliberately missing!!."
??????
7.) 08 May 2026 15:49:15
It would take a shot on target to miss on purpose, and we couldn't even do that.
8.) 08 May 2026 17:05:48
Villa deliberately lost to Spurs as it damaged our preparation for the game. Had Villa beat Spurs (given their next game is Leeds), we’d have headed into that game safe with a different outlook.
MGW probably doesn’t enter the fray on Monday if Villa had beaten Spurs.
Gamesmanship, brilliantly executed by Emery, changed everything and gave Villa a psychological advantage last night.
05 May 2026 14:37:06
Stokey did you ever serve at Carlton Nick?
1.) 05 May 2026 17:27:37
No mate. I did a few short stints there as a cover Custody Sgt though when they were short, perhaps a few weeks, off and on, over a period of a couple of months.
I worked at Beeston, Hyson Green, Bulwell, Hucknall, Central and Canning, Broxtowe and CID at Radford Road
2.) 05 May 2026 19:12:19
Ok.did you come across a PC Derek Barkes in your at Carlton?
3.) 05 May 2026 19:48:32
No, mate, doesn't ring any bells. Is he a relation or friend or some other connection?
4.) 05 May 2026 20:00:13
He was, bless him, a good friend of my parents.
He served in the 70's until he passed away unexpectedly in the mid 80's.
04 May 2026 17:12:03
Chelski. ??????
04 May 2026 17:11:28
You Reds.
Amazing game ❤️❤️❤️❤️.

Heard Luiz has turned down Everton.
Probably end up at Man U?
28 Jul 2025 13:58:37
If the Greekfather is doing it the price will cheaper otherwise a horse's ? head will be in someone's bed.
26 Jul 2025 16:53:09
Red I know we have a ding dong or three but Traore. not for me.
26 Jul 2025 16:52:12
Fofona going to Everton. ?????.
25 Jul 2025 21:29:37
No thanks.
Ndoye should be a replacement for Elanga.
Edu doing what he does best.
Sweet FA!

Red Robin, brilliant. ???
13 May 2026 21:16:24
Can a leopard ? change its spots?
Marinakis will do as he pleases, unfortunately.
Hopefully he has learned valuable lessons this season and takes on board how close Forest were to relegation.
Regarding Silva, me personally would stick with VP.
{Ed001's Note - yes it can and they all do as they age.}
13 May 2026 07:08:06
Nor me, Rogie.
Who cares where he lived!
09 May 2026 12:41:00
Good post, Agen.
In VP we trust.
COYR.

Forest Green. ???????
