Really pleased the deal is off, hope he gets plenty of game time when Garner and Norgaard are fit

Well they haven't now have they.
But talks where at an advanced stage as reported so had it gone ahead as planned I'd imagine it would have been £40M which would have been a farce.

Personally, I think this will be chopping their noses off to spite their face.Audrey Horne wrote: Sun Aug 30, 2026 8:40 am 1878's statement to say they are no longer doing flags or before the game stuff due to all this.
They don't do their events and flags for the owners, they do it for the fans and the team.

I know Ornstein got some stick for leaking this before the game, but imagine if he hadn't.

Re: Future Captain Harrison Armstrong
I'm surprised nobody has even considered the possibility that this was all a ploy by his agent to ruffle a few feathers at the club in order to garner a new contract and more dough for his agency.
One look at which players the represent show the have previous at doing this. I dont think for one second the player was every going anywhere, no disrespect to Forest but if / he leaves, it will be to CL team.

Does make you feel proud to be a blue. If we were like Brighton then he'd be in a Forest shirt this morning.

If it was Brighton they'd have told Forest the price was £85m, take it or leave it.Shogun wrote: Sun Aug 30, 2026 9:17 am Does make you feel proud to be a blue. If this was Brighton then he'd be in a Forest shirt this morning.

And then their fans would boo him every time he played against them.

Re: Future Captain Harrison Armstrong
This whole referencing Friedkin seems a bit of a straw man ploy.
Kinnear and the rest of the board has fucked up. They're the ones seen on and off publicly linked to the club. The Friedkins never appear. So to try and make it seem like it wasn't the boards fault they're trying to push the blame on someone who will never be in a position to receive the vitriol directly.

He's currently one of the first names on the team sheet. It's his place now and it's up to the others to try and oust him.Escalator wrote: Of course but what about the other two ?

Re: Future Captain Harrison Armstrong
So if the transfer committee, Kinnear, and the manager have all pushed back strongly against this, then it does suggest this decision was taken at owner level, and really does cause serious concern about how we are being run.
We've had an owner constantly meddling previously and hoped we'd finally be run correctly with the people out in place allowed to do their jobs without interference.
Clearly that's not the case, which is huge cause for concern.
Despite not attending games or saying anything in the media, the owners had so far seemed to be doing a good job ensuring our commercial income was maximised, and ensuring the building of a younger more sustainable squad. Any good they've done has been completely destroyed by the last 24 hours and will be extremely hard to rebuild any sort of good will moving forward.
