As much as i loathe to give those lot any credit, they are very creative with their signing announcements. This one did make me chuckle.

(I'll now go and bathe in acid, to cleanse myself)

Talk about low standards.

Doesn't matter even if on paper they've signed 3 players because none of them will likely improve the first 11. 

 

0/10 window. Probably the worst one under Venkys. 

 

Complete sabotage of a chance at promotion and a representation of the resentment between us and them. 

 

I wish them the absolute worst life has to offer. 

100%...How anyone can be remotely satisfied is beyond me.

Benjamin Kallman being shopped around, refused a move to Turkey.  Dynamic striker who can play across the front 3 with 20 goals and assist so far this season.  Out of contract in summer.  Not GBE eligible so may be challenging the Yuri deal

So far we don’t seem to have signed a single player for the first 11. Lack of rumours would suggest we aren’t going to either.

If Kargbo doesn't walk into the team ahead of Dolan and Hedges then we've wasted £1m.

What's more absurd is that he's been at Forest for 3 years and barely played for them.

He must have been on top of the world as a 23 year old: leading Huddersfield to a Playoff final and being bought by the club that defeated them there for surely a glittering Premier League career. 

Now at 26 he's been passed around more times than a cheap hooker - D.C. United, Middlesbrough, LA FC and now Swansea. 

But...but Forest care about him

A reporter doesn't need to ask where the players are, they simply need to ask where is the money, John?

 

Look forward to Rudy Gestede's interview... Another scapegoat for Waggott and Suhail.

Worst transfer window until next January. It's like they have a target to make every January more depressing than the last.

Will they try with Bamford maybe?

You've not been quite as in-the-knowy during this window Tommy... have you lost your source? Or, are you opting for an easier life after the shite you've had in the past for your scoops? 😅

Hard to find information out of a club that doesn’t know it’s arse from its elbow. Too many chefs etc. life’s easier not knowing

West brom signing a striker from abroad ,£3.3 million

Would genuinely prefer nobody, rather than Bamford

[neophox]

Källman is an interesting tout.... would suit the championship...

I'm delighted Cooper has failed miserably since then. Absolute nonsense statement by him - and yes, we all hate Rovers too, but it's our club. How dare he say anything negative about us to the press, especially in the situation they found themselves in with O'Brien.

I thought they were skint? As in staving off bankruptcy, couldn't pay the compensation fee for any manager, skint?

[JCRovers]

Hahahaha, you can only laugh at this mess. Our main rivals pick up pacey, skillful wingers who arguably are too good for Championship (Edwards, Iling-Junior) while we can't even get Danns on loan from Liverpool. Eustace will easily become manager of the year if he somehow manages to get this threadbare squad into playoffs but the odds are stacking up against him like never before. Our "marquee" signing is a guy who has never excelled beyond Serie C; what a coup that is right Waggott/Suhail/Venky's?

Just go f* yourselves. Club is going nowhere until these idiots are gone.

Don't think the left back is coming just to warm the bench either tbh.

We lost A. Wharton last January. Nothing will top that for the foreseeable.

Be delighted if he does but get the feeling it isn’t someone Eustace wanted so will be a bench player till he proves otherwise.

It'd be a strange one given his pedigree and considering he's clearly in and around the Braga first team (started about 30% of their games). I just fear it means they plan to play Beck further forward.

Bought him for £9m and paid him £40k a week? Yeah they've not made that money back. 

They've been desperate to sell him for a while.

This implies 2... So one is Ribeiro and another is a striker that will never materialise. 

 

Window done.
