Discuss Daniel Taylor's Thoughts

A common complaint relates to Forest’s habit of bidding on multiple players, or offering those players big salaries, but then moving on to new targets. The other clubs who want the same players then find that the price has gone up, or that they have to pay higher wages, because that was the proposal Forest put on the table.

This is a great tactic! I hope it f****d over some of our rivals

It would certainly explain why we were linked with so many players this window,

An excellent long read from DT in the Athletic today, its about as close as Sniffer will get to gratitude towards the owners.

Emphasis on Marinakis burning ambition which can be a bit OTT but nothing wrong in that. Ultimately he comes out of the article very well as does Miltos and a couple of nice anecdotes about him which raise a smile.
A few other things, background to Richards injury and the deliberate cover up to get Toff, Widdows moment of fame.
Someone is very much on the naughty step for prematurely leaking Cooper contract discussions
Mendes very much involved again and negotiations on MGW and Lodi
Few criticisms at all very much based on the undeniable steep learning curve and hints that Forest’s PR a bit naive about handling the criticism to transfer activity.
All in all he seems to be aboard the EM train.

Thought it was an excellent article. A lot to unpick but very positive. As you say, even the criticisms are fair.

The Cooper contract leak is a concern for me. Just hope he's happy (how could he not be after being backed so emphatically?) and the new contract is sorted soon.

Exciting times. Never thought I'd ever experience a transfer window like that. Over to Cooper, his staff and the players to get the results now.

He didn't say who stitched him up then by saying that we were signing a player called Jizz, absolute classic.

Yes, if that was a deliberate stitch up fair play, notice he stopped tweeting transfer rumours after that one!

Yes it was a bit embarrassing for him he was stitched up like a Kipper.
