sandman Embarrassed for you m8.

Anyhoo, things really are getting bad at Forest. Star players leaving, owner and new manager falling out before the season has even kicked off and now they've signed Sir Tripsalot.


Wednesday and Forest, much bigger clubs. Calm down to a panic m8. :lol:


Yep, both down in the third tier of the league much more recently than Reading.

genome Sandman, why do you bite every time?


Not biting to anything and if I know my intention of my post then that's all I care about. Well established that I have never liked Sir Tripsalot Antonio and the comment is on him as a player.

Actual LOL

Both much bigger clubs than Reading

Shame really that Antonio was bullied out of Reading by the boo boys, but good on him for bouncing back to bigger and better places.

Why is that a LOL? It's true. Never disputed anything about them being 'bigger' clubs (whatever that actually means), just st8ed a fact. Not sure why you find it funny m8.

Not surprised from one of the boo boys who forced Reading to miss out on a bright talent like Antonio

tbf Antonio was shocking everytime he played for us - his first touch was always 5 yards away from his body.

I remember the odd occasion where he'd miscontrol it out for a throw, but I think this was due to negative new age Reading fans. His career has flourished while playing for a big team and proper fans up at Sheffield Wednesday and for that, I applaud him

I do agree - all he needed was confidence but you can see why Reading got rid, especially for £750k (i think)

Yup, but if Reading had proper fans like Sheff W do then would've got the bigger paycheque of £1.5M instead of £750K

Pretty :shock: that £5.5m is Forest's record transfer fee, though I guess they've not been in the PL since what, 2000? So missed out on mega mega money moves

1 reasonable season in the 3rd tier is now worth £5.5M. :roll:

I look forward to the first £10M Div 4 transfer

Nope, rather stay away than go and boo

Plus, I'm not a new age fan unlike a lot of the post 2006 bellends who go to the games now, m8
