Youth and potential

I'm blaming you. Whoever signed off on this deal was clearly a Merchant Banker.

So far it is an improvement on the 'on season'.

Crystal Palace have just had their best ever season. No, not the FA Cup, but getting Leicester City to pay actual money for Odsonne Edouard and Jordan Ayew.

This Friday is also next Friday. We need an independent adjudicator....

I'm convinced that the Wolves game was also the game that broke the collective spirit of the team.

I just have a total sense of humour failure when it comes to Danny Ward. His incompetence was just too costly. After he has left, I hope to never hear his name again.

Why? I don't think he has shown enough for anyone to offer more than we paid for him. I don't think there will be a queue for any of our deadbeats.

We have just been afforded a sneak preview, a dress rehearsal, highlighting for all to see how Martin's tactics fail spectacularly for a promoted club in the Premier League. Almost a 'try before you buy'.... And it seems we're still going to buy anyway. Madness.

He is a work in progress, is what he is. Still developing. I remember Barnes coming into Puel's team and looking a bit lost for a while. I'm not saying that McAteer is going to be a world beater but I think he's a bit better than what we saw last year and let's give him a little more time to grow.

Just playing devil's advocate here, perhaps, when Enzo left, there wasn't a manager available who plays Top's cherished keep ball?

Aside from the dreadful football and aside from the hari kari defending if its Martin, we will likely have to endure people on here referring to him as 'Brusell', a la 'Brodgers' or 'Brenda' and I think that might just tip me over the edge.

Well it's been nip anf tuck but sadly our brave foxes have ultimately fallen short. It has been a hell of an effort by our heroes. They have fought like trojans, one to eleven. So proud! Sniff...

That is demonstrably not true. His Saints side earned less than half the points we did.

Forest have lost and that's all that matters today. I'm a happy boy.

It's embarrassing to use personal abuse as protest. Especially when he will likely end up here anyway, There are better ways to make your feelings known. I literally said that I don't want Martin. Twice. So not sure who you are directing your second sentence to.

I don't want Martin. I really don't want Martin, but I find that embarrassing.

Top hates us. It's the only explanation.

After our worst top flight season of all time, it would be so Leicester to employ the one manager that did it even worse. It would be so Leicester to further indulge this weird Southampton fetish having learned nothing from bringing in Puel, Vestergaard, Bertrand, Glover... If you keep signing Southampton rejects, eventually you will turn into Southampton

No, I think we are the outright winners. Birmingham have 12. We are the most yo yo of all yo yo clubs, just ask Woyo.

You've got to be kidding. We'll have one of the best squads in the championship next year. I fully expect to see HMS Piss The League making another voyage, regardless of who is manager.

I just completely glaze over at any mention of PSR but it is a bit heartless of the Premier League to be handing out charges to a limping corpse of a club like ours. Its a bit like kicking a puppy.

Well there is that. Point taken. I guess what I'm trying to say is that I think we should commit to Jakub as our number one next year if Iversen wants to leave.

There has been a great deal of complaining on this forum a lot that we don't allow a pathway to the first team. I think we should be building around youth, promoting the kids and I have every faith in Jakub. Lets spend whatever transfer kitty we have where it is actually needed for a change.

I agree. He has actually surpassed my (admittedly vey low) expectations. He just wasn't the player we should have been signing but that's not his fault.
