It’s sad that many posters are ridiculing Chucks. I’m sure that chucks is just as frustrated and  even more so for him than us. Please show some compassion rather than laughing about someone else’s misfortune. 

I hope he doesn't visit this site ( some players do ) and see some of the comments in this thread.
I find it fascinating that some of you forget that he is human. As frustrating as it is for us, it's tenfold for him.

I doubt it £10k a week, holidays a plenty and as we all can see at the valley, he doesn't even warm up properly.

Stealing a living.

We’ll doing this thread for another two years yet.

not a question of ridiculing Chuks, more a question of mocking the idiot who, must have been aware of his injury record yet still signed him to a multi year contract .. THAT was truly ridiculous

Have changed the thread title to save the confusion of Len Glover and others, even though there isn't any actual news.

I assumed as much Len, but I thought it was best changed before a ball was kicked in anger, making the risk of genuine misapprehension more likely.

I don't see that many people ridiculing him as such, not in a spiteful way, it's mainly just people expressing their sheer frustration.

But if you're gonna ask for compassion then at least spell his name right.

How are people STILL getting his name wrong after this long? Jesus Christ.

Who gets Jesus’s name wrong?

A very good counter discussion … spelling! 🥸

If you've chosen only to read my comment about spelling in that post then that's up to you mate!

You think we've got trouble?

Harry Arter will remain with Forest next season! 

Arter has made just 14 appearances since he signed for Forest in 2020.  He likely earns a fortune after a clause in his contract gave him an extension following promotion.  At 33 Arter looks unlikely to get himself another club. He was collecting £38,000-a-week before his promotion pay increase and it doesn’t bear thinking about what wage he takes home now.

Not his fault. Hard lesson for Forest.

Give the bloke a break I am sure he is more frustrated than anyone over his injury record and he didn’t force anyone to give him the contract 

Hopefully his injury problems will abate and he will be able to contribute to the team because there is no doubt about his ability and what he can bring

We all do. If he actually existed at all he would have been called Yeshua - English spelling Joshua.

Fancy signing a player on a 3 year contract. If he'd only signed for a year we could have got shot of him

All this talk of he should retire, he hasnt been seen etc. Anyone considered that he could be back in training and that he is undergoing a special training programme in a gym, working on strengthening his body in a way that he will be ready for the season, rather than doing sprints in hot temperatures which would increase the risk of injury?

If that's the case why the radio silence? If that is what we are doing with him then that doesn't need to be a secret does it?

I mean it's not like the club is being peppered with questions given it's the first week of pre season. It's just a bunch of people on a forum right now. He might be starting up front tomorrow. 

We'll see what we start hearing as preseason matches start. 

this is the issue for me - it shouldn't require anyone being "peppered with questions" - injury updates should be a matter of course - Even a monthly update/summary would do-  as Cabs has already said - he's been out since march/april - its July now and we have had nothing in any of that time.
 Its the air of mystery all the time with us - CBT is another one who was injured towards the end of the season - why do we have to play "spot the player" in training pictures to work this stuff out?? 

We know he’s crocked and can’t last 90’s, the biggest problem we have is that we’ve been so badly run recently that every time he’s come back he’s been desperately needed and required to start.
