We've still got room for a couple more loans.  But we should be getting in some permanents.  I don't like the idea of a club pulling the rug on ie.  The Nicky Shorey effect.

Its a 8 we need SA and have done since Silva left

Saving money for the 'quality' signings and a class striker.  I remember when Forest used to go out and get Collymore in the 2nd division for a couple of million.  Or a Brian Roy to give us a 'touch' of class.

73%.  We can only sell if we get the value we want.  We can't have the likes of Brentford taking the pish.

Sometimes you have to speculate to accumulate.  The time to do that was in the January window under Sabri.  But we stuffed it up.

We can still push for mid-table and beyond if we just get LB and striker etc filled with transformative quality.

We've sold Appiah and Cash for large sums of money.  It seems that the supposed Worrall deal would have given the club more breathing room.

We've put off getting a striker for far too long.  I hope we don't have to sell under duress to keep Forest in this division.

Remember the team on Saturday are derby and if we don’t put on a decent display then the proletariat will become beyond restless.
It might certainly be defining game for CH but I would suggest Randall and Murphy start looking over their shoulders too because even the most stupid amongst the fan base will see that making no permanent outfield signings during the whole summer is what has destroyed this season, irrespective of what people think of CH’s skills.
There can only be three possible reasons why we are in this situation
1. There is no money (in which case we have been mislead)
2. We have not identified realistic targets (in which case the scouting and recruitment team are not doing their job and need replacing) or
3. We have identified realistic targets but have not correctly identified the necessary budget for those players.

Option 3 has already spawned a plethora of speculative theories; is it EM not backing us with the cash? Is it ventros hobbling Murphy? Is it Randall interfering or Murphy going off-piste in budget terms to make a ‘name’ for himself and putting a complete spanner in the works?

Whatever the reason I can see protests at the ground round the corner without a massive change.
Whatever the reason, we have either been lied to or incompetence exists in some of the crucial roles behind the scenes (which let’s be honest we’ve had years of evidence for anyway).

Sorry but please show me where we've been told there is a massive budget? All we've been told is that we're fine for FFP, that is not the same thing.
