    We were burned on one RW so we've gone back to exclusively signing LW

    Maybe I’ve missed something but why are we writing Kanu off already. Couldn’t he be our ‘new’ right winger?
    Because he’s barely played since preseason and the squad cap means 4-6 players will likely have to go, the lack of game time pretty much confirms he’ll be one of them.

    He’s also a striker and not a winger.
    But apart from that?
    He's also Out of Contract next summer, and we seemingly cant get him to agree a new deal (if one has even been offered), which is why he's not going out on loan - We're basically in the same position with him, as Palace are with Rak-Sakyi.

    Guys, can we temper the Tyler Bindon love in down a bit?

    WIOTOS...
    look just because we have often previously been fooled into expectations of decent signings, only to be badly let down, doesn't mean that on this actual occasion expectation of a decent signing will result in it not happening and us getting badly let down. I say lets go all gung ho!

    If you consider Bindon is apparently already having a medical and its a loan so simpler paperwork, you would think the aim is to get him in ahead of Preston.

    Not surprised given the state of the bench I had to think up for the Preview.

    I do feel like there must be some sort of Big Club algorithm agents and coaching staff have access to that we've imperceptibly soared up over the last few weeks. Must be all these star players signing contracts or something. Millenic Alli feels like our final farewell to the old paradigm, poor bloke. Hope he somehow turns it around. Anyway, let's trust some more good stuff can happen 
    For all quite a few people on here have spent the past two seasons asking who would want to play for Nathan Jones he's very good at developing players and rounding out their game. Football at the top level is going through a phase where it's become incredibly physical again and the main non-negotiables in a Nathan Jones team are that you are fit, you run for 90+ minutes and you are aggressive and front-footed. I think most players will recognise that playing under a manager who can help you develop the attributes needed to succeed at the highest level is a pretty positive thing, and if you're Forest I can see sending a 21 year old CB prospect off to the man who trains people to be Murder Bastards as a very pleasing idea. Add to that the fact we're playing a bit more football at the moment and it seems like quite a good time to join the party

    Let’s not rewrite history and pretend we are better off without JRS - Nathan desperately wanted him and so did we!
    No but we're not actually any worse off either. Before this, we didn't have JRS. After this, we still don't have JRS. We haven't gone backwards (in that sense), just stood still.
    We needed a RW,  now we still need a RW, plus a CB, but we have time to address it.
    Personally thought we were overpaying for JRS but there is no doubt he would be far better than what we had in the natural RW department really not liking the look of Apter or Alli and would have significantly improved us. 

    How big of a problem missing out will be depend on who we get in as the alternative 


    Galbraith going for £10mill and H Clarke moving for £3.5mill after failing a medical... Previously had a £12mill bid for him turned down last summer. How much do you think he's worth?

    Nelson would be ridiculous, needs to go somewhere and play every week though. Was linked to West Ham a couple of weeks ago.

    He’s left wing too. 

    Maybe after everything a Prem team has bid for TC 😂😂😂🫣🫣🫣

    Yes, this feels accurate. And for all that he tutors Murder Bastards, we actually have a really, really good red card record under Jones, and I wouldn't say we put in particularly dirty tackles, so the Murder is basically Running Murder - we will simply get to the ball before you will. Sadly, a few of ours have been Running Murdered in the process. There is always collateral. F in chat for Collins

    We need a winger, Nelson is a winger, and though he's listed on sites as a left winger he's actually played on the right more. A free agent so no fee to pay and doesn't have to be done by the deadline

    Look we haven't had any good fish puns recently so we have to fill the rumours thread with actual rumours for a change.

    For all that Jones has a reputation for industrial and physical football, can you think of really any properly filthy challenges we've put in under him? I bet he specifies under pain of near death not to go in rashly. Look at what happened to Ramsay after his red vs Millwall, we barely saw him for a month. The singular cynical yellow card is however the highest form of football, which is one of the reasons I love Conor Coventry so much as he's a true master of the art

    If you had to make a choice between living in North Korea or Burnley, you would need to have a long hard think about it.

    If Sichenje is out until January then we won’t need to register him. So won’t need any extra outgoings to bring in Bindon (still obviously need to shift a few)

    I doubt we will sign Reiss Nelson but if we do I’d imagine that’s all of the Rak-Sakyi wages being used and then probably some of the fee to top up those wages. Would think he’d be looking for 20k a week at least

    I'd take Conor Coady back im sure his wages are more than negotiable at his age.
    I'd be very very worried about Coady's lack of pace in a back 4. Really like the bloke but it seems very risky and not overly cheap
