Today’s Games 2023-2024

[NottsWolves]

City will have Foden and Haaland next week and be much better.

Not too mention Dias, much better in defence.

Just hope we give a good show of ourselves.

 

[lets all have a disco]

Whatever people think about Boly.....we gave him away....2.6m.....ridiculous fee......played nearly 40 premier league games for Forest.....should have been nearer 8-10m.......

£4.6m with add ons (which will have been achieved) I think.

 

[Norman Bell]

Nunes coming on for De Bruyne is the equivalent of bringing on a hungover Sunday League Division 5 player to replace Zinadine Zidane

That's a bit better..... transfer markets had it 2.8m.....still thinks it's low though..... especially with the money forest chucked about.....ya gotta bear in mind we gave him away and ended up with only kilman n Collins to pick from , which nearly put us back in the fizzy pop league....think it was still one of the worse transfers we have done for a pittance...

We paid 5m for Enzo....

I do love a bit of minor exaggeration.

In England we call it " Poetic licence "

If I've told him once I've told him a million times to stop exaggerating

Yes, they were blasting their way through a lot of players, but at the time I think many (certainly me) thought he was never coming back to the levels we needed. As ever letting players who want to leave go isn't as significant as how you replace them (or don't replace them!).

Nottingham Forest sign Willy Boly in £4.65m deal

Willy Boly has joined Nottingham Forest from Wolves on a two-year-deal.

Boly has played well for Forest, but is injury-prone. When he's fit, he looks good, but too many matches missed. Yes, £2.8m is low, but don't forget he threw his toys out of the pram to get a transfer.

 

[Watfordfc]

Haaland showed Forest how to finish .

Yes not disputing any of it.....just leaving ourselves short for a pittance was ridiculous.....to forest who were chucking money about.....all I'm moaning about was the fee to another premier league team.....had it been abroad no problem...

It's the best deal Forest have had....

 

[Black Country Wanderer]

Good game from Forest
They made City look like a normal team for an hour and should have scored
If they go down ,and i dont think they will,id love their LWB Aina here

 

[Sketchead]

Good game that. Sadly playing City away is a much different beast to hosting them. Suspect we won’t get anywhere near them next week.

Forest have got something there amongst all the chaotic transfer windows. Both wing backs, Murillo, our Morgan, Hudson-Odoi, Elanga, Awoniyi but he’s always injured. Not far off being a midtable side at all IMO. If they stay up, they need to shift the deadwood and maybe sign 3-4 players tops and settle on a starting XI, as unlikely as that seems given their previous!

 

[Norman Bell]

Just looking at next Saturday's final day Championship fixtures you would think the two live games will perhaps come from Birmingham v Norwich, Plymouth v Hull, Leeds v Southampton or Ipswich v Huddersfield. Then again with the unmentionables with a Birmingham post code being Sky's Championship coverage answer to Manure in that they always seem to be on, what is the chances one of the games is Albion v Preston

Albion v Preston they only need a draw? Seems a strange pick

 

[Watfordfc]

It won’t be picked .

They will have the Leeds and Ipswich games

 

[JadeWolf]

If Leicester win tomorrow and Ipswich win on Tuesday night that’s first and second pretty much done. The relegation battle will be far more interesting.

 

[Rabid Wolf]

Mosquera scores for Villareal.

 

[Mile End Wanderer]

Mosquera scores for Villareal.

He wasn’t good enough for us remember because he played in the MLS. How silly do those folk look now

Hopefully we can avoid another Rafa Mir situation here……

 

[Rhoswolf]

Would dance for joy if Forest draw or win.

You simply must be joking, for us older match attending fans there is a long standing rivalry with Forest. Personally would be happy to see them relegated, put into liquidation and end up in non-league.

 

[JadeWolf]

Mosquera scores for Villareal.

Excited to see what Gary can do with this lad.

The end of our current captain?

No idea, but having genuine pace at the back will open up other ways for Gary to set us up.

An exciting revolution awaits us

 

[lobodelsur]

It won’t be picked .

They will have the Leeds and Ipswich games

So @Watfordfc do your team have anyone worth poaching ?
They've unearthed some gems (Mo Johnston, Richarlison, Sarr etc) in the past - whose the next best thing off the production line ?

Not particularly apart from Yasser Asprilla who is a young Colombian attacking midfielder.

We have some we’d love to get rid of though!

 

[hollo]

One of the few good transfer deals Scott sellars made.

Don't we all...?!!!!

 

[Jawwfc]

One of the few good transfer deals Scott sellars made.

Wonder if he was Scott Sellars, wasn't Hobbs around in the scouting system quite a while? I seem to remember that he was rumoured to have gone to South America to negotiate with Enzo Fernandez although I don't think there was ever anything concrete in that but I thought he did a lot of south American scouting prior.

 

[Oh When the Wolves]

Gyorkes 2 goals in a minute

 

[thommo1984]

Are you really happy to say his bum sticking out when facing the other way is offside?
And, did you think it was offside when it happened?

Yeah I thought he looked off in real time because he was stood behind the defensive line.

Calling it as onside because a defender is leaning forward and therefore sticking his butt out would have been the silly decision!

 

[loppers86]

i’ve not seen it mentioned on here (but i’ve only speed read it…

i caught a glimpse of the first arsenal goal on the tb which was on silent after forest game.

surely ben white was offside, and not only that he was wrestling, blocking and manhandling to keeper to stop him getting to the ball?

is this not 10 times worse than what chirewa did against west ham?

 

[DanishWolf]

Gyorkes 2 goals in a minute

38 goals 45 games in all competitions..
We really missed out there..

He can’t be offside for 2 reasons
1. You can’t be offside directly from a corner
2. It came off a spurs player (own goal) so again he can’t be offside

Other than that though you are spot on

should have put the sound on

 

[woop woop barmy army]

Do we get any further money for Coady wining the league? Or just promotion?

Another first game of the season with them?

 

[Watfordfc]

Leicester certainly rode through that storm of a bad run well in the last week or so.

Hopefully Ipswich Nick second spot now
