Brice Samba

[Paplane]

The save from Hourihane was so bizarre. Would've been so easy for him to have flung himself out of the way but instead just stuck a strong hand out and palmed it away.

Judging by the pictures of his magic bottle doing the rounds he and the coaching staff had clearly done their homework.

Re this magic bottle, how the hell has the club got information on each of their players' preferred penalty?

Take our players for instance. Has anyone on here ever seen Cafu take a pen? Lolley hasn't taken one for a good few years? What would the blunts have predicted those two do?

Unless we've had a shifty bloke hiding in bushes a la Bielsa. 

I don't think he had that, I think a fan made it and he is playing along saying - give it back.

I dunno Mac, it looks authentic to me.

Why would a fan do that?

Brice had his bottle wrapped in a towel, obviously so no one else could see it

That was defo authentic

[Sniffer Dog (Admin)]

Brice said himself that he had the bottle.

[McDurban]

Yeah, Sam Surridge also confirmed it.

Told the club he wants to leave and won't be signing a new contract.

Wasn't expecting that one

Ha I just posted the same on the transfer thread. Certainly didn't see that coming. Probably just agent talk although explains the Pope link

[BadDog]

If he wants to hold us to ransom, thanks and cheerio.

Samba’s decision to turn down the offer and reluctantly seek an exit is said not to be financially motivated but about respect for his achievements, importance and popularity at the City Ground.

This is from Athletic

[Paplane]

If you read the article it sounds like hes just turned down an initial offer. It says Forest trying to keep him.

Got to say I dislike this new exposure our club seems to be getting. The club are clearly mid-negotiation with Samba and yet this story finds its way into the press. My worry is these storys will harm the club until they develop the nounce to deal with this new world.

Got to get used to this I'm afraid!
