Shambles

It's not funny really.

Someone been on the sauce?

I reckon they've missed a trick there. They could have released a statement saying Brian Clough was never sacked. That way they could lay claim to all Forest's dusty trophies from the 70s and 80s. Like the Anglo-Scottish Cup.

How do they end up owing their shirt sponsors money? Do sponsors typically get a % of kit sales or something?

I assume it's to do with this but in the article Graz:

In 2012, Gibraltar-based Enterprise Insurance lent Leeds United £1.7m at 7% interest for repayment in 2015.

And these are the same people that are part of the consortium trying to buy the club.

Lansbury and Vaughan out long term injured.

Lansbury and Vaughan out long term injured.

Such sad news for Nottingham FC. A nice man like William Davies does not deserve so much misfortune.

Aye it really does beg the question of why, doesn't it not Boc?

Lansbury's injury is a fractured lower back.
That sounds feckin horrible.
Also, how did he do it?

Some serious long term injuries at Forest - all first team players:
Lansbury - fractured lower spine
Vaughn - fractured patella
Cohen - cruciate
Wilson - back problem
Blackstock - cruciate

Emergency loans may be beckoning

In fairness, that's quite a list.

 

[Motown Fox]

Playing 2 crucial games in 3 days won't help them either.
I can see Forest insisting our game is moved to Wednesday.

It's always good to get your excuses in early

They can insist all they like. We can put our objections forward too. Then it's up to the football league to sort it out. Personally I think it'll go ahead as already agreed. It would have been foolish for Forest as well as us to assume Fulham would win before agreeing the date that has been confirmed.

Probably negotiations ongoing as neither website has been updated with any new date yet.

Are they all from matches or training?
2 back injuries is most unusual.
If "not so fat boy" Reid gets injured, that's your season over, IMO
