Nottingham Forest Transfer Banter

22 Jan 2026 06:36:26
No Jesus tonight. so looks like the smiling assassin ?.

22 Jan 2026 06:55:31
Watch him bag a hat trick.

22 Jan 2026 08:10:33
Awonyi can't play not in the squad so Ndyia up front with Hudson and MGW with Yates back a couple of youngsters on the bench no sweat.

22 Jan 2026 08:32:39
Awoniyi not in the europa squad so can't play
So no striker.

22 Jan 2026 09:07:50
Only a matter of time before Jesus got injured!, Sean must have taken notice how Pontius Pilate treated the original.

22 Jan 2026 09:56:41
So milenkovic up front then jobs a good un ? if he can't get onto the crosses and long balls we might as well forget it ??.

22 Jan 2026 16:26:23
Someone please, please kill
me now……. ???????….

22 Jan 2026 16:56:05
Yes with a candlestick in the library. Any ?‍♂️ volunteers ??.

22 Jan 2026 18:39:48
Just make it quick……. ????.

22 Jan 2026 19:09:42
They’d be queuing up Skegs because you are a total twonk.

21 Jan 2026 21:49:27
Not sure what room we have with ffp or whatever it’s called now but we desperately need a striker. We need to sell some deadwood and get things moving. It’s very frustrating atm
What’s the betting tomorrow night we create a few chances and just can’t take them yet again? I like Jesus he really puts a shift in but he just doesn’t seem capable of scoring the goals we require.

22 Jan 2026 02:24:06
I think it could be a case of sell before we buy or at least free some wages up.

22 Jan 2026 05:40:54
Agree Dave it may be the only way- and if that is the case it shows just what a basket case the club is we’ve wasted hundreds of millions on rubbish.

22 Jan 2026 08:34:58
Heard it all before about players being crap
Remember sangare for the first two years?
Three managers with different styles haven't helped the new boys settle either.

21 Jan 2026 17:54:28
I think I've sussed out our recruitment dilemma chaps and chappettes! It's all to do with The Bard, no not rhubarb!
Ok, we know this season has been a COMEDY OF ERRORS so far, but it's not really SD's fault!
This is all down to one man, to quote The Bard, Edu Brutus, is to blame!
So, can anyone fit in more of his work? Shakespear I mean, not blooming Edu Brutus lol.

21 Jan 2026 20:21:41
Chapettes? ???.

21 Jan 2026 20:25:34
I think Keeff we need “ The Taming of Edu” before we can move on to mid table safety when all this fuss with be “Much Ado About Nothing” and the supposed sacking of SD just “ A Midsummer Nights Dream”. We might even be able to play football “ As You Like It” ……????.

21 Jan 2026 20:35:12
Edu ain't the problem, the problem left the building after 3 games
We move on as a club.

21 Jan 2026 20:41:52
Mid table you read to many story books stokey ??? no chance with dyche the dino.

21 Jan 2026 21:04:11
??????? edu ain't the problem it's nuno its sels etc etc who would honestly listen to u dtp after all you predictions and knowledge. Your nearly as bad as jacknorry stokie with his prediction of dyche being great and getting us midtable ????.

21 Jan 2026 21:16:08
Skeggs my little bin dipper, trust me no listens to you and never have ❤️???.

21 Jan 2026 21:17:03
Talking about wrong predictions Skeggs you made quite a few mate. But don’t worry, it’ll be a case of “ Alls Well That Ends Well” this season my friend ……??.

21 Jan 2026 21:23:52
Surrage and Grabban on standby they will get us to midtable, Osong back from Motherwell if we don't sign anyone and get in jury's who knows ??.

21 Jan 2026 22:10:48
Anyway off to bed lads. stokie my prediction for tmoz hammered by a poor Portuguese team. you coming up with some sort of fiddled statement about how it wasn't dyche fault it was the owner ? dtp my little ram in disguise that says he lives in Nottingham and its really Derbyshire with his nights out at the local with the sheep night night girlies.

21 Jan 2026 22:28:52
I refer to Ed1's post about this being the bitchiest site. C'mon guys.

21 Jan 2026 22:28:55
Sleep on this skeggs
If it wasn't for the owner we wouldn't have been in the premier in the first place, that's his fault and totally down to him thank god
To be happy and excited that you want "YOUR TEAM"to get hammered speaks volumes of your support for the club you try and convince us you support.

21 Jan 2026 22:48:28
Lego, stop trying to change the site
We only used to argue amongst each other about forest
Now its far from that.

22 Jan 2026 00:26:43
DTP - you seem to be the instigator/ agitator of most of the arguments and bitchiness on this site between posters. Stop trying to change the site? So that it remains your personal space to slag off anyone you want to? Personally, I think you really drag this site down.

22 Jan 2026 02:29:08
Yes, dtp, the problem with the club was the coach that got us into Europe. Not the fact that these billionaire owners don't like to hear negative words when the coaches answer questions. Big bank balance usually breeds big egos.

22 Jan 2026 03:20:26
Well said lego. It's relentless.

22 Jan 2026 08:20:37
Yes you've never been the instigater have you balloons? ??????.

22 Jan 2026 09:20:53
Maybe I don't takes things quite so seriously
There's never been much point being over serious on here with skeggs about and he's been about forever
Your just a pup still lego.

22 Jan 2026 09:59:12
So being on the site longer gives you free rein to act like a nob?
As my Grandma used to say to me "act your age and not your shoe size" ?.

22 Jan 2026 10:06:22
There's enough being serious. At home bills to pay roof over your head health. etc etc. I come on this site for a laugh a banter and because I love and hate forest ? and because over the many years its an escape from the insanity of real life's problems it's always been a great site with loads of great characters. Probably all of never agreed on anything but that's what makes it a great site. you only after go on any other banter site.

that's mostly dead all week or even for months to realise this is the best banter site out there and the eds call it bitchy but Its always been this way I bet there's been many times the eds have sat there with a cup of tea after a bad day and spat there tea out laughing at somebody's comment on here. propably cheered them up. come on Ed you must of laughed more than a few times ?.

22 Jan 2026 12:15:46
When an opinion is not well-received, it is important to acknowledge its existence without expressing personal offense or grievance. This can be achieved by suggesting a countertheory or alternative perspective, demonstrating that you have considered the opinion while maintaining a calm head.

22 Jan 2026 12:34:05
Well said skeggs
Read it red Robin and when it comes to nobs your top of the class and ask yourself why you came on in the first place.

22 Jan 2026 13:45:23
Very really agree with your comments Skegs, but your spot on, I come on here to get away from the day to day pressure of life, sometimes it gets nasty, but the Ed's usually sort it. Posters should realise it's not life or death, it's a football banter site about Nottingham Forest ??.

22 Jan 2026 14:29:10
Yawn, DTP you and those come back comments, all as predictable as dyches tactics, old, stale, musty and past their sell by date. ??.

22 Jan 2026 14:36:09
And come up with something original yourself rather than trying to point at Jays post and claiming it as some sort victory. ?.

22 Jan 2026 15:37:32
There's no getting at you is there little red Robin? ???.

22 Jan 2026 16:23:57
Im OK with it all just "don't f ck with cats,

22 Jan 2026 17:03:05
Or Hedgehogs they are cool. ?.

22 Jan 2026 18:34:28
Very true ripley a good post mate
There's to many can dish it out but can't take it when returned.

22 Jan 2026 18:45:00
Thats what Peter Mandleson said. ?.

22 Jan 2026 19:00:12
And there goes my shirt tale again ???.

22 Jan 2026 19:20:54
What Peter Mandleson? , haha so it is true! ?.

22 Jan 2026 19:41:52
Thank you DTP.

21 Jan 2026 17:28:28
Fire up the scattergun Eduardo!

22 Jan 2026 13:47:20
Mr Marinakis has taken the gun away, as all Edu's been firing is blanks!. m.

21 Jan 2026 16:53:53
Right. Dyche says Cuiabana is training with them. The press believe he'll be sold on to someone else. Does he exist at all? I've looked thoroughly through the latest training video from the club and can't see him anywhere.
I now firmly believe he was a ghost signing and is now our resident phantom player.

21 Jan 2026 17:34:18
This is a tactical move on Dyche's part, designed to ensure he can fully unleash Cubiana once he gains a deeper understanding of the Premier League's intricacies. Until that point, Cubiana will serve as a training cone, requiring him to prove his worth by fully integrating with it.
Hope this helps?

21 Jan 2026 18:03:05
I think he played the other night for the B team against psg.

21 Jan 2026 15:49:52
We seem never to look in our own back yard for new players - why?

Also our B team our under 18 do they not have potentially good players coming through - why not

I believe our recruiters who ever they are, are our weak link, ie we are only occasionally linked to players in the lower English divisions. If this Italian is a possibility, has you tube been the method of evaluating? Considering we might be paying him a 6 figure salary if he is on loan. This seems very poor business sense. Also the club want to sell him? Why

Our aim should be to get players who are already playing premiership football, like strand Larsen. He might be saying to his agent I don’t want to move to a club 3 places above Wolves. This has been our problem ever since we were promoted. The deal that brought Anderson was an eye opener but I think related more to Newcastle balancing their books.

What the recruiters need to understand is any one from a warmer climate is going to take time to settle, never mind accomodating to the premier league.
There is no doubt everyone on this site wants a striker. SD will saying this everyday. The worry is that he will not be given a say, yet will take the brunt of criticism from fans if the striker is pants.
Ndoye and MCatee people want the club to sell. On what criteria were they bought and are we being to short sighted moving them on early.
People blame SD because our only other striker was moved on, but I suspect he had no control and it was a financial decision from on high.

21 Jan 2026 17:34:42
One name EDU!

21 Jan 2026 18:12:56
Another good post Nuno! ??????.

21 Jan 2026 18:50:26
So nononuno now your agreeing with your good pal nuno when he said edus signings wernt good enough ?. don't really care what anyone says dyche doesn't know what tactics are. and we will get found out tmoz by a poor Portuguese side.

21 Jan 2026 19:12:53
Carlo is right though skeggs edu only sorts things out with the agents, our head of recruitment identifies the players who is Portuguese and seeing as you know that you'll know his name ??.

21 Jan 2026 19:53:03
I totally agree with you Nuno.

21 Jan 2026 20:05:59
At the end of the day. fans on here only see what suits them edu is in charge of overseeing all transfers in and out plus strategy and tactics fact a coach his a coach has I've been reminded lots of times his job his to coach the players given to him by you know who. dyche can't coach or put any tactics into the team has he as none fact and most of you wanted rid of nuno because of his boring football that got us into Europe.

So when we get hammered by a useless Portuguese team tmoz think of nuno smoking a big far cigar with a smile on his face because he was right about recruitment and edu which you are all moaning about now. and me collecting my free beer for a couple of weeks ? ?.

21 Jan 2026 20:10:06
Like i say the academy players will start coming through in the next 2 to 5 years, nothing in B team at the moment.

21 Jan 2026 15:45:40
Palace want 35m for Mateta, get down to London and get it done! ?.

21 Jan 2026 17:35:48
This won't happen, RRHood. If he doesn't fulfill Edu's over-complex statistics, he won't be entertained.

21 Jan 2026 17:52:11
Obviously it won't happen, we can dream though you stick in the mud. ?.

21 Jan 2026 18:15:28
There’s the obvious elephant trap, Red Robin mate, which is that no top class player with any knowledge of the workings of the Premiership will entertain the idea of coming to a basket case of a club like ours …….

21 Jan 2026 18:51:53
Especially with a manager that hasn't got a clue how to get the best out of some of the best players in the Premier league.

21 Jan 2026 20:01:08
Agreed Stokey. And that goes back to my belief that we should be giving our best players from our Academy their next step-up in training and the opportunity to shine for us. After all, they're already used to the madness that is Forest!

21 Jan 2026 20:15:06
Really? ??.

21 Jan 2026 20:57:58
Lego that's the most ridiculous thing I've ever seen posted on here
Give us the banes in the academy that are ready?

21 Jan 2026 21:57:00
Names? ???.

21 Jan 2026 12:12:02
Things at Crystal Palace are not looking good, even Mateta has requested a move now. Juve and A Villa showing an interest! Will they still have a team when they visit
the WFCG?

21 Jan 2026 13:43:56
Palace? As long as we get their manager, who cares. They can have our potatoe and we can have a progressive coach. Win, win.

21 Jan 2026 18:18:58
Cyclist, re Glasner, please refer to my above Mateta reply to Red Robin about how crazy our owner is and how badly he runs our great club …. ?????.

21 Jan 2026 08:39:39
Sell McAtee Morato and Ndoye bring in either Luca or Strand Larsen and Frattesi

Creative mid to push MGW and a big Chris Wood type number 9 plus a left back or give Cuiabana a chance.

21 Jan 2026 09:40:06
I would be surprised if Cubiana ever wears a Forest shirt. He will likely be sold to a Brazilian club.

21 Jan 2026 11:48:07
I think we have to admit that no top quality players want to come to Forest we have had some success with the likes of Murrilo, Anderson and Malenkavic who will use us has a stepping stone to bigger clubs so on that note we need to find more of those rough diamonds but they sometimes take a while to adjust we need to be patient but that will not be the outcome, they will be moved on you can see in our previous deals and present ones.

Players abroad see that and decide to wait or move to clubs further up the table. Forest will not get the best without paying silly money.

21 Jan 2026 13:45:34
What's the point in getting a creative player in if you are just hoofing it to the forward from defence or the flanks from deep. Get cover at FB who can cross if you;'re going full dinosaur and keep us up.

21 Jan 2026 18:19:49
Cyclist ????????.

21 Jan 2026 07:39:27
{Ed's Note - MK Scouser has posted a new article entitled, Liverpool's Pre-Season Concerns Overblown Despite World Cup Disruption

20 Jan 2026 20:42:11
It’s getting very strange over Cuiabana. Is he in or out? Is Mr M just money-making?

20 Jan 2026 21:54:08
Read he may well be sold back to Brazil with Vasco de Gama interested. They want a loan with an obligation to buy. ?.

20 Jan 2026 22:02:11
We do strange deals though
35 mill for Anderson?, but we sell Newcastle a dud of a keeper for 30 million?
Sell mangala for 30 million and niakhate for the same?
Some strange deals go on
As long as its within the rules who cares?
City don't stick to rules.

20 Jan 2026 23:39:42
man city are cheats and are immune to any sanctions from the FA, slightest infringment by Forest, and they will be down on us like a ton of bricks!, hope them running the club know what they are doing now (Brennan) or more points being deducted.

21 Jan 2026 06:27:18
The difference is that clubs like us get punished for it and clubs like City get away with it.

21 Jan 2026 07:54:39
I'm not a big fan of selling players without giving them much of a chance. Cuiabano has even kicked a ball in anger for us yet.

21 Jan 2026 08:38:07
Money laundering. It's what gangsters and big business peopple do. You can't just transfer 30M to someone without a reason.

21 Jan 2026 20:15:33
I'll tell the Mrs that when I win the euromillions and am waving goodbye ???.

20 Jan 2026 20:34:45
Its official, we are better than Inter Milan. Defence was terrible on that corner. Arsenal causing them all sorts of problems. We even played their first team not their seconds. ??.

20 Jan 2026 19:44:31
What is it 16 x games left 5 x points atm. Ok sherlocks, tell me? Merry go round or believe in the players. because let's face it. That's the task. Myself I got to feeling big M is going to see it out as it is. I really think when or if a new coach comes in.

He's just again going to take him time getting to know his favourites. BUT most of all can't see 60% of this lot changing. Wood huge miss. So yup striker with height as this lot struggle. putting half decent balls in. And cross your fingers. FTID.

20 Jan 2026 20:39:19
I'd like a striker and a creative midfielder to come in this month. Maybe 1 or 2 to be moved on after Zinchenko.
