Well if people are over complicating this, you are making it up! No-one has written him off, merely queried the size of the fee asked. We are told Forest wanted 12M for him----do the extent of his achievements justify that fee?

We're going round in circles but I agree there is no problem with Venkys spending money! I'm all for it! So long as we have the funds for the other areas where we need them. I'm sure we can all agree on that?

Rather personal that post eh? No need for it.

Evans is like a new signing!! League One obviously wasn't his thing!

I was just thinking we could easily have gained 9 points so far. Football eh?

An away draw is always good but I get your point.

Obvious I know, but lose this and we are off to a poor start. Got to keep that momentum going.

Good question!

I think we should have a poll on this! Question is a) should we spend money on a player with potential that will grow and develop here? OR b) should we spend it on some over-paid player on daft wages who's barely played over the last 12/18 months? Gee, its a tough one Chaddy's asking and I'm going to take my time and think it over.

Didn't have internet then Bob but .if I had, you could have looked back and seen how ecstatic I was! No comparison between then and now, Jack determined to spend money and me happy to watch him! Venkys however..........erratic and simplistic. TM has actually said he's had to calm them down! More likely to suddenly turn the tap off as keep it flowing.

We still need a centre-back(imo). Is the Chapman deal dead? That McGinn would have been a good buy. I'd sooner see what money we have spread over several players who are better than we have than take a punt on one young lad. That's just me but I always felt Mowbray had the same sort of caution. This is an exciting time---potentially. I hope we don't blow it.

I just want something to happen!

Wait till the last minute?

Not as unrealistic as the fee they want.

And they didn't pay 12 M.

Also Venkys tend to be at one extreme or another, If they pay up big-time for a player and he doesn't justify the fee then they will likely freeze the funding and go back to loans and freebies. Mowbray will know he has to be careful, he can't take their support for granted, they are nothing if not erratic.

Jason Lowe?

Yes true but it is a gamble like when Dalglish paid so much for Andy Carroll and lost.

You are aware that the loan window ends on 31 August aren't you? I'm sure Forest are! What does it matter what Mowbray thinks of the player if the club want 12M? Crazy! I agree with Mowbray and Rovers---6M.

Thank you! Seems perfectly understandable to me but you get all kinds on here!

Don't worry! 2 posts on and he likes a post that says the same thing as I did! Completely loopy!

No! Can you read? Are you always looking for a row?

What have they done to deserve Oystons and Coyle. If Blackpool fans ever wondered when they would reach absolute rock bottom, well this is it. Whatever happens to Rovers now I'll be able to console myself that "there is always someone worse off than yourself"!

If he really was worth 12M Forest would be keeping him and playing him! But this is what happens when you run out of options and time.

Agree! What's the point of making him into something only for Forest to take him back or seek bigger offers? Only want him if we can keep him.
