| Gibbs White on 16:33 - Aug 18 with 2303 views | builthjack | They spent £106 million before this one. They have only clawed £4.5 million back. A wage bill on top of close on £65 million. How can they do it? |  |

Swansea stayed up with Danny Graham and Michel Vorm with Steven Caulker and Gylfi Sigurdson on loan. There is big pressure on Cooper. He was never right for Swansea. |  |

This is before Gibbs White. An overall balance of minus £102M. https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/nottingham-forest/transfers/verein/703 You say the wage bill is £65M, I think it is way more, apparently Lingard alone is on £10M for the season. |  | |  |
| Gibbs White on 17:32 - Aug 18 with 2207 views | builthjack |
It will close on £80m or more by the time they have finished. The club have backed Cooper. |  |

He arrived there 7 games in and had no preseason when they were bottom of the league.....took them to the PL their chairman .thinks he is and as a result is backing him in the hope they will retain their PL status......meanwhile we look forward to midtable obscurity in the Championship ....and no cup run either |  |

"midtable obscurity" If we are lucky. |  |

| Gibbs White on 20:44 - Aug 18 with 2022 views | magicdaps10 | This summer will have a big say in the future of Forest in a few years down the line. The club is being run by individuals who have no care for themselves other than personal gain......tjey will walk away from it and leave others to pick up the mess. There surely has to be a responsibility of care. |  |

Hope, being the correct word, I don't wish bad luck on Forest, but god help if they come back down. So you want us to spend big? |  |

It is at absolute minimum expected. I expect Martin to sort out the defensive issues with a couple of Cyrus Christie type loan / short term deal signings. He had presence and skill. Swansea put the boat ut with Latchford, Rajkovic , Colin Irwin Gary stanley and Waddle back in the day and very nearly went bust. |  |

Not at all I was answering the person who posted "hope he is worth it" Spending big doesnt always get results......we have seen that for ourselves |  |

| Gibbs White on 21:24 - Aug 18 with 1968 views | AndyCole | Ofc he's worth it - he woulda coulda been the difference in Coops getting us promoted in his first term. No doubt. A no-brainer, in so many ways. Just as Piroe shoulda woulda been the difference had Coops been allowed to get his man the following season. Trust in Coops, is the mantra - as did Birch, Britton, Tate, Piroe, MO, MGW, RhianB, CGallagher, MGuehi etc etc etc........the list of elite level players is endless. . .

Again you get your facts wrong Waddle was a fairly low cost investment when we were in the old Third division Waddle was bought along with keeper Geoff Crudginton for £54000 that was the price paid for both the record signing was Colin Irwin £350000 we did go bust but mainly as a result of building the East stand....coupled with the cost of being in tbhe first divisdion with div 2 crowds Martin has had over 12 months and still cant sort out the defence astoniishing given he was a defender himself! |  |

| Gibbs White on 00:08 - Aug 19 with 1895 views | Dr_Parnassus | Wonderful signing. Some nonsense being spouted in this thread, quite predictably of course. He did make people look rather silly last season having the season he did whilst again spending a pittance. The owners clearly now want to try and stay there, similar to the Brighton and Potter model. Someone just said the wage bills is £60m… show me. |  |

“ A wage bill on top of close on £65 million.” Where have you seen that? I’m highly skeptical if that figure. I’d be interested to read the source. |  |

Waddle was 3 years before the 1st Div and nearly going bust. General opinion of him was he laid on more balls that Fiona Richmond though. [Post edited 19 Aug 2022 3:30]

It’s about the going rate for exceptional young British Premier League talent like him. I would imagine the add ons would be linked to survival over two seasons. If that’s the case and he helps get another £300m income then it’s a drop in the ocean. Not to mention his potential sell on value. [Post edited 19 Aug 2022 9:00]

If we are not bringing anyone in ,why should we be so keen to loan out players and in Bennet's case,simply exclude,even though he is on big money. |  |
