They tried to sign stevie may in jan for 500k so will probably get him for a mill and sell him on for £5m.

Transfer fee sounds about right when compared to what they got for Gayle. Do they have a fantastic scouting network or are incredibly lucky in acquiring future young talent that nobody else has spotted ?

Why do we always rise to these stories? We know we won't be signing anyone before the season starts.

Hope so, because I think he's on the right and we don't have a strong enough left back as we stand.

Transfer fees they got from Newcastle spent very quickly.

I saw the Forest chairman was talking about FFP yesterday. He's quickly forgotten about it again now though.

Why? They just sold two players for about £7m.

Let's face it, we just can't compete financially with these parachute payment teams. . . . . . . . and Forest it seems.

Forest chairman Al Hasawi recently raised concerns about meeting FFP and therefore sold two promising kids to Newcastle for about 8 million. A couple of days later he blows that money on two new signings despite losing 17 million last year.

But they made a massive loss last year and have spent more than that in total this summer. I am a bit envious seeing as we've raised over £10 million in the last few moths and barely spent any of it.

Overspends now getting players in so a transfer embargo in January doesn't matter, shame nobody thought of that

Quite. On the face of it NFFC made this possible courtesy of their loan back deal with Newcastle. They get those two decent young players for another season, don't have to pay their wages and receive £7m into the bargain, which they now use to sign two further players. I guess this is the sort of creative arrangement that clubs will be obliged to consider in order to comply with FFP, assuming it is legit.

Their Chairman gains some kudos with the fans and puts an early marker on Pearce too.

Pity we couldn't loan Ulloa back for the season, on top of the £8m that LCFC paid us......
