Re: Omari Hutchinson

I’m not an Ince fan in the slightest but you can’t fault him if the kids aren’t ready (he did say ‘I only had a bench full of kids & Shane Long’ in the post match too). It’s not all about fitness. This is a tough league and to get on the pitch at 18 you need to look years ahead of your age both...

Re: Omari Hutchinson

Still not convinced this is the right fit unless he is really proper good. We had a load of young players on the bench plus Camara etc and ince doesn’t seem keen to use Yeah, unless he's Levi Colwill level good and can be a good to top level championship player pretty much instantly I'd prefer the ...

Re: Another Centre Back linked- Naby Sarr

Started 15 or more championship games twice in his career, finished 20th and 22nd in those seasons. Hopefully we have an option to extend his 4(!?) year deal. You seem to be excluding last season when he started more than 15 and was on the losing side in the playoff final ! He has also started more...

Re: MATCHWATCH : Blackpool (a)

I'm glad Ince didn't risk Camara or Scott, god forbid they might show they have something to offer our threadbare squad and should have been included in preseason ahead of some of the god-awful trialists.

Re: Rival Watch

Yeah seems like a clever deal, hes shown in the past he's a top 6 or even 4 player. Great chance for him to play every week, maybe get back in the England squad and Forest aren't stuck with him if they go down or he doesnt work out.

Re: Squad Watch 2022/23

I'm not as optimistic. We will only be 3 or 4 injuries away from a weakened team, and our record in recent years does not inspire confidence. Prepare for a slog, but I think we have put together a squad with enough quality and character to get over the line. There are a lot of sides in this league ...

Re: Squad Watch 2022/23

Quite bold to give an almost 33 year old a 2 year deal isnt it? If we're going 3 at the back we could probably still do with another CB if Dorsett and the other U21s arent getting a look in

Re: Squad Watch 2022/23

Yeah exactly I'm not saying being let go I'm saying loan them out. As I've mentioned above, judging off one game where players are at different stages isn't exactly the best sample to go by. You've literally mentioned half a dozen players above who all excelled by dropping down a division, developi...

Re: The Academy/Development squads watch thread 2015//16

Going by recent history I'd much rather the club spend £7-8 million a year running the academy than have that money for extra transfers.

Re: Fin Stevens

He barely played right back last year did he? Ashcroft played a few, rinomhota a couple and Thomas at the end of the season, but Yiadom played 90% of the games.
