    Nelson was on loan at Brentford last season and played 118 minutes across 10 games. His longest time spent on the pitch was 45 minutes and the next longest was 17. Before that he spent the season on loan at Fulham, played a bit up to December and then was out for the rest of the season with a hamstring injury. With that in mind you have to weigh up his level of talent, reputation and former salary against the fact that he hasn't completed 90 minutes since 2023 and has severe injury issues. Obviously he's well outside our reach but it would be quite unlike us not to go for a hugely injury-prone player who's barely kicked a ball in his life

    Is the Nelson thing not just someone posting a potential option on the other forum? They also posted Solly March

    Look we haven't had any good fish puns recently so we have to fill the rumours thread with actual rumours for a change.
    Just off a flight and a lot of carp-in on about Bindon!! Hope this isn’t a red-herring… he cod be a fantastic loan for us.

    I can fill that role if needed.

    Signing a cetre half on loan reminds me of signing Steve Stacey in the late 60's who scored an equalising header on his only appearance, at the Valley. Does anyone else remember him, the first black player to play for us so a significant moment , still alive, living in Australia and 82 yesterday.

    Nelson has MLS or Turkey all over it. Too injury prone and hasn't played a full season of football in basically his whole career.

    Two league games into the season and we have numerous players out injured. Is it just bad luck or poor scouting?


    Poor funding. We’ve had to take risks because we’re in the bottom five (or even lower) of Champo player budgets.
    We just come up from league one we are now where near being in par with 90 % of the championship .when it comes to budgets . the owners have done fantastic to supply the budgets they have since we got promoted .. but as we are told it’s small steps each year .. did you expect us to make an offer that would have broken out transfer record ?? 
    Regarding player budgets I don’t think you’re complaining just stating a fact. Let’s be honest if we had a bit more money would we have purchased Burke. Probably not! However, the owners are a huge improvement on previous. 
    But your talking about last pre season

    Tyler Bindon set to sign in a season long loan.. once medical has been completed. Hopefully his agent isn’t a c**t!! 😁😁

    Reiss Nelson is most definitely not going to sign for us so if we could not have 3 pages worth of conversation about him that would be ideal haha
    I’ll file him under Holsgrove.

    Interesting that neither Bradley Tagoe nor Rueben Reid (both wingers) played for the U21s yesterday.

    Remember it well. As far as I know, he is our only player to average one goal per game, unlike Barry Endean, who averaged 0.037 goals per game.

    Tagoe was in the first team squad on Wednesday night I believe. Would imagine it would have been a very quick turnaround to play yesterday when they would have got back early morning or stayed in a hotel. 

    EDIT: The 21s game was on Wednesday night too

    Plus for the wages he’s likely to want, you might as well opt for Nathan Redmond 

    I don’t think he’s someone that would appeal to the club

    From the vid, looks as tho TB can play LCB and RCB, right footed but decent with his left

    Maybe Reid was one of the extra players at Spurs who didn’t make the bench.

    CB, passes the height test, seems able to play either left or right of a 2 CB system. Championship experience and good reviews from previous teams.

    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
    You forgot THE main non-negotiable - being the best version of yourself.

    There was another youth player in the video of them arriving

    Bradley Tagore is very young, and plays on the left.
    Even with that I’d pick him before Apter.

    CL is exhausting...

    So many OTT reactions to rumours, from JRS to Tyler Binden.

    From creaming your jeans, to bed wetting, back to creaming, back to wrist slitting...

    It's not good for your mental, and physical, health...

    Look at Kayne Ramsay. From best player at the club, to it being a disaster he's injured, to being that he's not as good as Danny Mac. Then, he's signing a new contract, to he's refused to sign a new contract, and we're going to sell him, to him signing is going to save the club, because he's signed.

    How do you all manage to sleep at night?
    To be honest I've not seen many overreactions here so much as discussing if Bindon would be a good signing. I appreciate it's the rumours thread and its purpose is to discuss literally anything else so we're not really used to discussing signings on here but if you're going to get upset at people essentially saying that signing Bindon would be good you might be in the wrong place
    Hyperbole...

    Come on, guys!

    Surely one of you could find a right winger, who left Charlton in Nineteen hundred and frozen to death, who's without a club, who could "do a job for us", who we can discuss for the next 6 pages...

    That's what usually happens, right?

    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
    eh?
    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 
    Jones loves a scrapper who can mix it up but not got any time for thuggery for the sake of it. Its the difference between a Lloyd Jones (who is willing to mix it up physically) and a Ryan Inniss an axe maniac.
    Corrected it for you.
