Can Forest afford these two?


Tottenham have received an offer for midfielders Michael Brown and Andy Reid from Nottm Forest. (The Times)

f*** knows... didn't Reid come from Forest in the first place ?

 

[Gully]

Yes he did.

 

[Ex Shelton Seagull]

How much did Spurs give Forest for Reid last year? Wasn't it several million pounds? His market value must have really dropped.

Forest have been spending money all season. They just paid 400k for Grant Holt from Rochdale and I reckon they must have spent a couple of million this season. There was me thinking they were in serious financial difficulties.

Is this another of those Jack Hargreaves appreciation threads?

 

[Shirty]

Reid was part of the transfer that took Dawson to Spurs too, wasn't he ? At the time, most of the cash was for Reid, with Dawson thrown in as a bit of an afterthought. Now Dawson plays all the time and Reid is just another of the 378 midfielders in Spurs squad.

Guess Forest are sorting themselves out, or they are being run too carefully (which on past performance is quite possible)

 

[Shirty]

areN'T being run, I meant to say of course. Damn you fingers!!

A great example of a club not getting the returns for the investment laid out..........
