Summer 2023 Transfer Window

Although I still don't get your mistrust of Wilson after such a short period in situ, fair enough Cloughie.

By the way, I appreciate your correct use of the "proof of the pudding" idiom mate. Seeing and hearing "the proof is in the pudding" so often really f***ing pisses me off.
Cheers,Otis.
By the way-I’d be genuinely delighted if Wilson pulls some rabbits out of the hat-I’ve been known to be
wrong on players and officials before (believe it or not 😁).

Whilst we've got Biancone and Richards seemingly set to return in the near future, and O'Brien and Bowler potentially being viewed as capable of adding to squad options and depth, it's that injection of genuine PL-quality that we probably have to be patient about.

Hopefully not too much longer for a PL standard goalkeeper!

Fab tweeting about quite a few aging players who've had contracts terminated mutually (Cavani, Payet, amongst them). As Bolo used to say, I've got a bad feeling about this.

So far:
Arsenal - strengthened
Aston Villa - Ditto
Bournemouth - Ditto (new owner, new manager)
Brentford - Weakened (no new signings; Toney out)
Brighton - Weakened (no new signings; weakened by departures)
Burnley - Strengthened (7 new players signed)
Chelsea - Strengthened (new manager; big shake up in playing staff (ins and outs))
Crystal Palace - Weakened (Hodgson confirmed for season; but no new signings)
Everton - Stable - (Dyche has had close season; no signings (yet))
Fulham - Stable (speculation over Silva; no signings)
Liverpool - strengthened
Luton - Stable (but probably weakest squad in the Prem)
Man city - stable (as best in Prem)
Man Ure - Strengthened (shit people to do business with)
Newcastle Utd - Strengthened (Saudi Sportswashing shennanigans)
Nottingham Forest - Weakened (no signings - no goalie)
Sheffield United - Stable (but departures could weaken them)
Spurs - Weakened (no Harry Kane; Club in disarray)
West Ham - Weakened (no signings; Rice gone)
Wolves - Weakened (couple of poor signings; key departures)

What does that mean?
Probably nothing, and the situation will change, but we need to strenthen if we want to improve the odds of survival.

Everton have signed Danjuma on loan & are about to sign Gnonto. They've defo strengthened a lot.

Fulham fans seem to have wanted him back and rate him.

More of a squad player by the sounds of their forum. But solid and very decent.

What sources do you use to find your info?

Brighton have signed five players already, including a new keeper.

I hear the concerns, you'd have thought that we'd have made some steps forward in the window by now.

But honestly if Wilson addresses our fitness issues, which seems to have been a priority of his, then to me that's as good as 2 or 3 good signings already in this window. Had Hendo, Yates & Awoniyi stayed fit all last season we'd have been comfortably mid-table IMO.

A fair point,Alf-surely we can’t be as unlucky this season 🤞

CASUAL GOALKEEPING COACH

Nottingham Forest are hiring for a Casual Goalkeeping Coach.

For more information on this vacancy and the requirements of the role, please see the job description.

Who the f*** are they going to coach ??😂
Well, Brice Samba was pretty casual, maybe the now-French International fancies making a comeback?

Maybe if we get up to a certain number of players in the squad of 25 that are going to the AFCON we will get an exemption from playing our PL games 😂

But seriously, is that a rule do you think ?

Another week with zero transfer activity slips by. I haven't been overly worried thus far, but I'm starting to get a bit twitchy now.

This window is starting to have those 11th hour panic buy vibes about it, and we really can't afford any more Wooden Shelving.
