Who's going to want him?
Right now he's damaged goods.

But I suppose if he can engineer an exit with several mill in his back pocket he won't be bothered where he goes in the short term.

To be fair (ish), we've been nobbled by the FFP rules this season.
The FFP wormhole.....

the dear Nottingham Forest come on down.

as a Championship club supporter, don't get me started on Watford, having just sold/bought back one of their own players, to their sister Italian club, all perfectly legal according to FFP.

How long does it take the various authorities to exercise rules....Derby FC stadium sale an example. Yes we know it's wrong, we known it's probably illegal, but it's going to take months to resolve, meanwhile they play on.

Whoever you support such management policies just continue to deny fairness.

We didn't need the new training facility, and we don't need the stadium extension.

What we need right now is a new manager, a new keeper, and some new players.

Dear oh dear.

Maybe it will cost them too much to terminate his contract alongside that of the coaching staff who will presumably go as well.

It’ll cost them 10x that amount when we get relegated, which is a certainty. These are the worst defensive displays I’ve witnessed following this team.

Can we gift you maguire back to make the defence even worse?

Rumour in press is £10m would have to be paid out.....

Ouch.

I was at the Spurs game on Sat (Spurs fan). Tbf, the score does flatter us a bit, though OTOH we gifted you a stupid pen and then you got a slightly fortunate VAR re-take. You played pretty well for two long spells in the game and made some chances.

- your shooting was awful, Maddison's superb finish aside
- the keeper looks nervous. Keeper and defenders vulnerable to a press
- set piece defending was a joke. Never been at match where it felt "likely" there would be a goal each time one team got a corner
- you look very short on confidence and communication. Indidi losing the ball to Bentancur summed that up.

I hope times improve for you lot and you get that guy out.

Letting Schmeichel go to save money was a very bad mistake

Kasper knew what was coming and I reckon (but have no confirmation) that him and Rodgers fell out, especially as he dropped him for his record breaking appearance last season.

Looks like he’ll get the Forest match, it’s gonna be toxic. If we lose that we’ll need to win like 11 of the remaining 30 games, we’ll struggle to do that, but it is possible.

Didn’t realise he’d done that, sounds very much like the sort of small minded thing he would do though

Didn't expect that, really wasn't looking forward to this fixture in particular. But it was great to actually enjoy watching a game.

Not getting carried away about this being a turning point for the season because Forest were poor, but I'll enjoy it while it lasts.

I'm claiming to be the lucky omen.....first game I've been to this season (obvs not a season ticket holder!) - they always win when I rock up!
Totally outclassed the noisy neighbours - the goals were top notch smile

Unbelievable win, really didn't see that coming.

However, it'll all be pointless if we go to Bournemouth and lose. We've got Bournemouth, Palace and Wolves coming up as the next 3 games, we need a minimum of 5 points from them, I'd ideally like 6. I don't think we've turned the corner yet, a decent team would have scored a goal or two against us yesterday and Forest are probably the worst team in the divison.

As expected, normal service resumed.

Get this clown gone. We're gonna have to end up on the pitch protesting soon to make it happen.

Why is it always ex players that end up sticking the knife in?
