Not happy with the second half but it is a wake up call. Personally cannot see the Dack pic making a difference to the numerous poor decisions and performances, that's on Mowbray and his line up chosen today.

January will come round in no time, we shall get Chapman then!

Signed for Sheff utd.

Umm..He is a find...played at Oxford in league 1 and was hardly setting the world on fire! We get him for a few hundred thousand and he looks excellent. Davenport is supposed to be better, so can't wait to see him.

What a win vs a title contender!!

Guess the wink at the end didn't work hey... 1. He played for England at international level, meaning he performed at premier league level consistently enough to be called up and play three times. 2. Yes he did play 5 games but contributed enough to win a premier league medal. 3. He moved for 25 million because of City? Well he signed for Sunderland for 10 million too... Javi Garcia is/was an excellent footballer (googled to check his whereabouts, he is at Real Betis, playing consistently for a team that finished 6th last year). I agree Stuart he has been poo since, no doubt. My point is that he has been an elite player who is currently on 27. Having seen him play on numerous occasions for Everton, he always looked like a Rolls Royce footballer, Jason Lowe has never been or ever will be! If Tony can get 50 per cent of Rodwell this season then that is someone who will be more than good enough to get into this team and play at championship level, all for a low wage, end of the season deal.

Aside from being a premier league champ, an England international and someone who has moved for 25 million pounds worth of transfer fees

Think the words I used were total car crash... Don't think I said he was an amazing signing but he has scored in this league and would depend on what we are paying. Seems like we have two polar opposites people who say every signing is a great one, the other that Armageddon is coming and then a few who like me are waiting and seeing.

Sylla has scored 10 in 32 in the championship in his first season. 4 in 20 last season. Depends on the deal, but he certainly isn't the total car crash some are saying on here.

I've seen a comment comparing Rodwell to Steele...well Rodwell has played 3 times for England, been a premier league champion and moved for what 30 plus million pounds and is 27!! Ideal signing for a season on low wages. Reed is decent too. However for me I want a striker and winger and they need to be permanent

Jack rodwell!!!

Tony tony tony. You are a top fella, but can you please please stop saying you are hopeful of a signing by the end of the week, it's like a bloody curse!!!

Not exactly crazy! No strikers who scored lots of goals for us, however this is a game of 11 vs 11 and i have no doubt that either one would struggle in this team. Why? Mowbray demands that all players chase and track, we are an effective team now. In hindsight the best thing to happen to us was to go league 1 with Mowbray in charge.

Disagree about Sharpes comment, as by the sounds of it we bid over 5 million for Brerton however if they want 12 million then surely that's too much... I would sooner spend that amount on 3 players...

Apparently he played most of the season on the wing...

BLACKBURN- Brerton chase heating up, more later. Nicko Deffo something in this based on him missing the game for forest last night. Ideal signing for us, 19 and already 50 games in the championship. A potential Graham replacement.

Makes sense. Can't see us paying more than 1 million pounds for him as he is out of contract soon.

Maddison is not in the starting 11 or bench for Peterborough...

Well if we do believe him then Mowbray has only had a few weeks with this extra cash...this would tie in with the cheapish buys and then this sudden flurry of cash.

True to a point, however Sharpe confirmed that a sizeable bid had gone in to Forest and we had the funds to purchase said player. According to Sharpe Mowbray has turned players down who cost too much, only to go back when the price was right...all three players signed on permanent deals being proof of that.

Thanks for the link, very insightful. There are very few clubs who are in the red for transfers (we are one). Forest have spent a fortune and must be certs for a top 6 finish. My worry is if DG or CM are injured then we literally have no one to replace them. Currently our season relies on luck and that is an awful position to be in. It will be fascinating to see what the loan window does for the championship, as I sense the prices will be far more realistic. 3 more weeks to find out (!)

Currently very disappointed. I am willing to wait until August 31st and to be fair Tony may turn this round...but...we were told to expect 4-5 players and right now we have none of them. So a 6/10 for me.

I think the issue is not the transfer fees but the wages. We can't have Dack on say 15k a week and sign players on 20k. I have total faith that by the end of the day we will have signed 2 players and probably someone we haven't even talked about!

As confirmed by the manager of the Americans team.

Offers pace and an outlet for us to utilise on the counter. We were crying out for someone to run onto a through ball at Ipswich. Dack possesses the quality to find him too. Very pleased to see nearly 3 million spent on a player too!
