COG

[durrington gull]

Completely different style of play at Forest that suits his game more and he's probably feeling more comfortable in his personal life being back in his hometown and all.

Hope he does well there, but one decent performance does not mean he is/was ever going to be a good player for us.

This. Hope he does well but we not want him back here.....ever

No I'm not having any of this - sorry.

One.goal.in.his.last.29.appearances.

I don't give a flying fig for what a nice bloke he is or how well he holds the ball up for others he is a striker and the measure of his effectiveness is how many goals he scores for the team.

His record with us was awful - so bad that it's beyond all explanation of playing in a struggling team or being unsettled domestically. His touch is consistently poor - how many times do you see him looping bouncing balls up over his head when he's under pressure from an opponent because he's unable to get the ball down under control quickly enough? He doesn't put the effort in closing down when the back four have the ball either - the work rate of Baldock and Hemed compared to COG are like night and day.

I hope he's a success for Forest - that way they might buy him or extend the loan to ensure he never wears our shirt again.

Nailed it - he's been dreadful for us

Forest hadn't looked like winning many games this season so having COG help them take points from our other rivals is great news for us. I hope he enjoys his time and earns a contract somewhere when his expires with us, or maybe even a permanent move in January

Scored a reasonable amount for the tykes when they got relegated from the championship

It amazes me that people are saying how well he held the ball up and laid it off. I must have missed that lay off for us , give me BZ professional and competent performance yesterday, any day of the week.

They absolutely love Gardner as well.

Watched the game in The Swan beforehand and thought O'Grady looked very very good. A better performance in one game for them than in many for us. Good luck to him, I hope it works out and it helped us yesterday.

All about systems of play,environment etc. Some players suit a team far better than another... would also add that COG has only played one game for Forest. Come back to me in December and see what the Forest fans are saying then.

A lot of posters on here have reached their limit, won't get any better, same old predictable cr4p week in week out.

Did not fit in here at all, looked completely at home in the Forest team yesterday. Don't want him back but I wish him no ill at all, he always gave everything. Good luck to him.

I'm Nottingham born so I do have a soft spot for Forest and County though.

he was very good and looked a bit pissed off he didn't get to score himself after he won the penalty which was good to see

 

[ewe2]

I am pleased for COG,he was never that bad a striker for us, except not scoring any goals....

Just seen him on TV for Forest - told you he was decent

Yeah, well, you were WRONG

 

[Icy Gull]

Yeah, well, you were WRONG

So were you about "one in ten Glenn"

 

[Tom Hark Preston Park]

So were you about "one in ten Glenn"

At, the time I wrote it? Yup.

Absolutely.

Same as I was right about...

Leon Knight,
He's alright

Absolutely.

Wins a penalty, gets the goalkeeper sent off, and was key in the passage of play for the second goal. Good for him and long may he continue to take points off our competitors.
