Lets be honest, he's probably our best player. I often admire his determination as he crosses the halfway line - as if nothing could stop him. Then, a mark of a true gent, he'll show great mercy upon our victims by casually sweeping a ball left or right, or out of play.

At times, opponents stop in awe as he - who hath arisen from the slums - jinks inside and produces a lob into the grateful arms of the goalkeep. His very prance is the mark not of a man, nor a legend... it is the prance of a king. The lord of the pitch.

I think McCleary divides the forum more so than McGoaldrought and Smith/Camp.

Personally I think he's a very useful player to have, as other than McGugan he is the only Forest player who I can see tricking past a defender or use any sort of flair down the wing. Anderson is good, but he needs a clear space in front of him and for someone else to cross the ball.

Not a starter for me, but a decent squad player.

Mods are currently still banning gifs and requests for giffs after the infamous "bottle top opener" gif that got Clusterknakker in to so much bother.

if I was a mod i'd run this ship differently. MUCH DIFFERENTLY!!

a) I would demand new members refrain from posting giberish
b) I would enlist a local moneymans help to sponsor Joel Lynch as a joke
c) I would print ansd distribute a "fanzine", these long lost publications are due a come back
d) I would insist on dance lessons for all, especially Unco
e) I would try and get LTLF on Soccer Am - not yet been done
f) I would provide a badge for every new member
g) Always wear a tie

Has the potential to be a very good winger at championship level and I'd like to see him given a good run in the side - I don't think we should be writing him off as I think he has more ability than Ando, and I rate Ando too - when they're both fit, I think we have two highly capable wingers!

If we dont sign a winger, he'll be important.

Maybe McClaren will give him more licence to get forward.

As an all round player he's not as good as Anderson but he's more likely to score and more likely to find his man with a cross. (I always make a note of the amount of crosses that find a red shirt from him, and its a lot lot more than people give him credit for.)

He's much better than Ando going forward, and can cross a ball.

Say what you like about Garath but he can put a mean ball into the keeper's mitts. You've got to hand it to a man that can hit the keeper with every single cross.

It wasn't long ago our wide players put every cross into the stand, so that's an improvement at least

Maybe he can make an impact under schteeve.

Then again, weve been saying that for 3 years and we are still waiting.

He couldnt be any worse than andy reid though

Much like with McGoldrick I must be an optimist but also just don't see any point in getting on the back of any of our players.

I might have had my judgement clouded by the Leeds goal for Garath and the Palace one for Golders - the times I managed to see Forest last season there weren't that many goals and those two stand out!

Let him get fit though and give him a decent chance and who knows what might happen.

Maybe he needs a partner, like robocop?


He certainly moves faster than mcgoldrick and tudgay.,,,

Has he singed yet?

I also rate McCleary.
The only one in the team that has the guts to take on and beat a player. Also not afraid to have a crack on goal.
Very under rated.
Anderson used to do that in his 1st season here.
McCleary has not started many games and always been warming the bench.
If he started instead of Anderson and given a run of games he could be quality.
