If we’ve not accepted it and wont entertain offers, then why has he been left out of the squad?
CBA with the game now. FFS Everton.
Has he? Do we know that ?

Probably offered to quadruple his wages and a big signing on fee and all sorts.
Tough to turn that down when you’re faced with your club rug pulling you.

McNulty saying there's no indication we'll accept the offer. Hopefully that remains the case and they get a firm fuck off.
How fucking embarrassing would it be selling one of our only decent home grown players in years to Nottingham fucking Forest.

The ultimate scabs.
My old man (hardcore lefty, union man, mandela marcher, cnd crusader, and head collector in the south for the miners) was a big Clough fan and therefore supported Forest but he ended up fucking hated them

If we sell Armstrong to Forest for the same amount we had to pay Burnley then we’ve been caught in a Brexit club pincer movement
I thought that Moshiri had indemnified the club against being fined and that he is liable, the risk was known and Friedkin would have been an idiot not to have insisted on this being deducted from the final stadium payment.

Of all clubs to be a selling club to though. Forest. This really is a new low.

Let’s hope I guess, but it’s a pretty big indicator if he’s not travelled surely? Should that be confirmed.

Could do with a big fat ‘not for sale’ statement from the club.
Any minute now….

I know but we don't know for absolute certain do we, what I was asking.
Is Phil up to date? Or is ornstein more knowing?

I’m not getting stressed about this as I don’t believe for a minute we’d accept it.
They’re “preparing a bid” apparently so the club hasn’t even had a chance to reject it, think we all need to calm down here.
If he’s left out of the squad it also doesn’t mean he’s going, it more likely means they’re worried about him being in the right headspace to play or about the crowd potentially giving him a rough time

The crowd wouldn't be giving him a hard time, and if that's the club's stance for leaving him out it's akin to headlock gate.
