I don’t really see how any of this changes anything?

Compared to most clubs we do pretty well in all aspects. A bit of twisting about atmospheres is to be expected I suppose, but all seater stadiums, large family enclosures , increased corporate hospitality and increased numbers of kids and tourists means things will never be like they were in the 80’s & 90’s.

Last time I was at Forest it wasn’t friendly at all. That was in the Championship under Rafa. Lots of bars wouldn’t let us in even though we weren’t wearing colours. A hint of a north east accent was enough. We ended up in the Rowing Club next to the ground and it was the friendliest place about.

I mean, if it’s right that our current deal brings in less than half over the entire length of the contract than the “big 6” get in a year, it’s a no brainier to buy ourselves out of it.

I wonder how my many existing season ticket holders really want it. 70% saying they’d rather not move seat strikes me as being quite high. Sort of, “a great idea, but not where I’m sat”. In which case it’s pointless making it any bigger than 3K.

Happens all the time man - when they extended the family enclosure to encompass all of level 7 you were given the option to stay or move. Same thing here. They just need to pick somewhere and do it.

I can’t believe they’re actually asking questions re vague US court documents, to do with Golf, of other teams managers. Tells you all you need to know about the journalists in question and it’s got eff all to do with any concern for human rights, in my opinion.

Bull shit.

Got mine as well. Owt happen if you miss you’re allocated entry time?

Thought we’d bought ourselves out of the Castore contract from next season.

‘Head of southern recruitment’. We should start an affiliation with a local Chelsea youth side, like them twats have with Newcastle City Boys.

Dermot Gallagher on Ref Watch saying he thought the Burn ‘pull’ wasn’t a foul, and he’d gone down too easily. The two pundits disagreeing with him, thinking it was a foul and a red card. At the time I thought it was a penalty and that’s what it’d been given for. Seeing it back I’m with Dermot, it’s hardly a pull in my opinion.

Random whinge here, but It’s mental you can’t buy a cap or a beanie hat from the official store. I do think we need to get shot of Castore, hardly any club merchandise.

The away shirt is class. It’s a shame they couldn’t use the same template for the home one, which is awful.

We’ve been very unfortunate not to have another 6/7 points at least, and have suffered from some appalling refereeing/VAR mistakes. We’re not used to it but teams are now sitting deep and defending against us at home. Yesterday was frustrating, but a number of clubs are going to do similar this season. I’ve still the utmost faith in Howe. The squad isn’t where he wants it to be yet and it’ll take another couple of windows. Patience will be needed but we aren’t a million miles off in my opinion.

I wonder if any other club has an official hair clinic partner. All money into the club coffers so let's have it.

Aye. If there was nothing in it he’d say what he has already said a few times, that we’re no nearer.

‘Not entirely accurate’ a deal’s been agreed sounds to me like it’s all done bar the paperwork. I think he’ll sign.

I think this one will be done either way. One thing is certain though, Luke Edwards glees in winding people up. The dictionary definition of arsehole has his face next to it.

I wonder if we’re becoming hard nosed now after being fucked about too often by clubs and agents. The market will eventually learn.

Mehrdad tweeted him asking him to a game next season. He replied in the affirmative. Definitely a fan.

Very little difference in the training gear. A little underwhelming. No sign of that top with bridges, St Nich's etc on?

This.

They’ve called it the third kit on the official twitter.

I wonder if the agent will come slinking back.
