Imagine how much money agents made out of Forest this year….AAddick Addict said:killerandflash said:Nottingham Forest have sacked two of the staff that were heavily involved in the summer recruitment that saw 22 players join the club.Head of recruitment George Syrianos and Andy Scott, the head scout, have both left the City Ground.

They spent £145m. Has a club that is going up to the top flight for the first time in over a decade ever spent anything like that? No wonder the owner is looking to sack someone!!!0 -
Probably because he was gambling on them staying up.iaitch said:Why did the owner allow them this amount of freedom to sign that many players?0 -

Surely he signs off on the deals though? They didn't spend it without him knowing.Addick Addict said:killerandflash said:Nottingham Forest have sacked two of the staff that were heavily involved in the summer recruitment that saw 22 players join the club.Head of recruitment George Syrianos and Andy Scott, the head scout, have both left the City Ground.

Personally i think they actually signed some decent players but i'd say there are 2 problems.
1) They went crazy and signed too many players. You can't expect 22 new signings (or however many it was) to gel immediately.
2) despite signing a lot of players their 2 centre backs (Cook and McKenna) were with them last year and are basically Championship level. If you want to stay up, you need a solid defence.1 -
Of course he did but then he probably trusts them to know what they are doing and if they don't then there is only one outcome. I agree that it was too many but there could be another reason why those two were sacked - what need is there for a Head of Recruitment and Head Scout when you've signed 22 players!!!Chris_from_Sidcup said:

West Brom to make official approach for Millwall manager Gary Rowett tomorrow. Did not see that coming at all. Neither did West bron fans by the look of it.1

Madness. Why on earth would they pay compensation for Rowett when there's plenty of decent out of work managers?0

They signed Jed Wallace in the summer. Now are after Rowett.
Who next, @MillwallFan and @Big_Bad_World ?5 -
Not sure WBA will be that interested in those two posters but we can but hope!killerandflash said:They signed Jed Wallace in the summer. Now are after Rowett.

That could be great news if Rowett leaves Millwall - Hopefully they'll go after someone like Pardew, JFH or Campbell as a replacement for him0

I'm a bit 'meh' if it happens.killerandflash said:They signed Jed Wallace in the summer. Now are after Rowett.

We're a steady(ish) ship but play the most turgid football. We have a squad capable of better but Rowett is the most reactive manager I've ever known us to have. We only ever start playing after we've conceded as we're set up to not lose.
Better the devil you know and all that, but if it meant we'd actually start letting the players play and express themselves a bit more then I'm all for him going.4 -

Strange comment about looking to the longer term, as that's more the sort of thinking you have near the end of a season, not in OctoberViewfinder said:1 -
