I'm losing the will to live . . .

In mitigation, we have sent a team of reserve and youth players . . . I almost hope we lose - it's ignominious even being in that competition. 1-1 now.

Well Alan Rogers has been listed and Andy Impey released on a free - they could "do a job" for you (cleaning the bogs?). I'm not sure there's anyone really who would (i) be any use to you and (ii) be affordable. We don't actually need to sell - our chairman has decided to pay off our...

That slogan got a lot of people's backs up when it first appeared. As the season progressed it began increasingly to look like one of the most spectacular PR disasters in history. I almost feel honoured to have been a part of it. Re the ex-Leicester players. Impey and Rogers have been utterly...

Chill folks, you're already safe. 50 points will almost certainly be enough, and in any case you will pick up at least one more point. Hell, I'm still optimistic that 49 points will do it, and that we'll scrape the requisite two wins in our last two games. And yes, I will keep taking the tablets.

To be fair, natural bias notwithstanding, Commons was sensational against Spurs and ripped Ledley King to shreds all afternoon. Even their fans applauded him off. But polls of this type are never decided on merit are they?

Just when I think we've suffered the ultimate humiliation we go and scrape the barrel that bit more. I half expect Junior Lewis to turn up in a few days.

Apparently we've bid for Akinbiyi as well now :roll:

I'm starting to warm to Megson . . . http://www.nottinghamforest.premiumtv.co.uk/page/NewsDetail/0,,10308~617885,00.html I sincerely hope Rogers does follow.

Pleat is already at Forest - he arrived a couple of weeks back in a sort of freelance advisory / DoF capacity. This, I think, is where the press picked this up from. I can't see even our chairman, with his terrible record of appointments, giving the manager's job to Pleat. You're the last set of...

And very wise that is too. Forest tried to ease Michael Dawson in gently but he was just so impressive that he became undroppable. As a result he played too much first-team football too young and has developed a chronic proneness to injury. As you say, the tall lads tend to take more strain and...

Are you sure? Swindon: Took them from being a side going nowhere and propelled them into the top-flight playing attractive football. Chelsea: Moved the club on by bringing in high-profile players and intoduced a progressive style of play - laid the foundations for Vialli to pick up all...

What an odious little prick you are. It beggars belief that anyone could be so poisonous and pathetic as to use something like this as a pretext to take a swipe at Forest. Usually life and death put into perspective how trivial footballing rivalries are, but clearly not for the truly...

It was 75k that we turned down, i.e. the first bid made by LCFC which Forest described as derisory. The £750k remark came from Joe Kinnear who tends to get a bit confused with numbers and obviously lost his decimal point! I think £500k is pretty fair all round. He has seldom looked anything...

No offence was meant chap. It wasn't a dig at your spelling (I couldn't give a flying one about the literacy levels of internet message board users), I simply thought it was ironic in the light of Gareth Williams' notorious arrogance. It was a light-hearted comment, hence the wink smilie. I...
