Fouad Bachirou likes this postI think the thinking was ok for this one. We just outgrew him quickly when we got promoted. Same with Sam surridge.

He’d have been ok in the championship though, so would Sam.Fouad Bachirou likes this post

Bachirou, Ansarifard, Federici, Kapino, Fuentes, Dejagah, Hefele, Tachtsidis, Janko, Pele, Bonatini, Da Costa, Blackett, Diallo , Christie, Ioannou , Guerrero, Krovinovic etc.Bloody hell I'd forgotten all about him!
I see what you're saying Alf but no football team in history has got every transfer rightBachirou, Ansarifard, Federici, Kapino, Fuentes, Dejagah, Hefele, Tachtsidis, Janko, Pele, Bonatini, Da Costa, Blackett, Diallo , Christie, Ioannou , Guerrero, Krovinovic etc.
Don't let anyone ever tell you that we could have avoided any of these signings. They simply HAD to happen in order for us to sign good players (like Carvlaho), honest.
I don't expect us to mate, I just don't buy the excuse some posters are making that there isn't a good, healthy middle ground (not your good self)I see what you're saying Alf but no football team in history has got every transfer right
Although I agree during that period we had far more misses than hits
It breaks the Panagiotis Tachtsidis record.750k plus bonus, that's a great deal.
You forgot one of your favourites Alf...El Arbi Hillel SoudaniBachirou, Ansarifard, Federici, Kapino, Fuentes, Dejagah, Hefele, Tachtsidis, Janko, Pele, Bonatini, Da Costa, Blackett, Diallo , Christie, Ioannou , Guerrero, Krovinovic etc.

Yeah, but how can you be sure that was Dane who signed him ay?!?!?Not one of Dane's best bits of business but pleased we got a fee.
Murphy obviously saw him as a potential Championship player and he should probably be judged on that basis. Similarly another Dane signing who wasn't quite up to it, Ojeda.Not one of Dane's best bits of business but pleased we got a fee.
If he was American, he was definitely a Dane signing.Yeah, but how can you be sure that was Dane who signed him ay?!?!?
Remember, none of us have any clue who signs who apparently.
Apart from Cooper and Billy. They were obviously to blame for everything.
He didnt even play in the championship though!I think the thinking was ok for this one. We just outgrew him quickly when we got promoted. Same with Sam surridge.
Forest had more Misses than the register of village virgins.Although I agree during that period we had far more misses than hits

Because of the losses made on the others?Roughly half of these we turned a profit on.
Why the hell would we avoid profit?
Also, who the hell is Krovinovic?!
He played a few games, but he was hardly gonna replace Djed. If we’d stayed down he’d have been Djed’s replacementHe didnt even play in the championship though!
Fair point, but as others have already argued, "Just don't make the bad signings," isn't really a viable strategy without hindsight 20-20.Because of the losses made on the others?
Better none of those come here, the manager has an easier squad to manage, and we break even, than they all come here, the manager has a more difficult job, and we still break even.
And "profit" is usually just the transfer fees. Throw in agent fees and wages, and that profit is far less.
Well, maybe he would if he was good enough. No idea if he was even Champ standard to be honest, he looked crap every time I saw him.He played a few games, but he was hardly gonna replace Djed. If we’d stayed down he’d have been Djed’s replacement
Canadian, but same thing. While Laryea was definitely a Dane pick, I only mentioned it to trigger Alf.If he was American, he was definitely a Dane signing.
Dane = American. What more do you need?

It was a jokey north American confusion thing.Canadian, but same thing. While Laryea was definitely a Dane pick, I only mentioned it to trigger Alf.
