Done and dusted

Now all he has to do is come back in with an offer of 30-35m and he'll have his hand snapped off having saved 15-20 mill in a day.

Just like I said weeks ago

This would not happen because of Fawaz being a fookwit and the incompetent JJM who can not close deals on football clubs

But some of the fantasists wanted to believe in their delusion that this was not a perfect storm of fookwittery

Who are these fantasists you speak about. I don't see any on this forum, twitter or LTLF?

There was clearly a very specific reason that we have called six players back from their loans.

Our 1st team is going to look a lot more youthful by the end of the window isn't it!

Few positives though - they can't do any worse than lose every week as we do now, costs will be significantly down, and they will actually give a shit.

It feels that way and, let's face it, they can't do any worse.

It might actually work in Monty's favour, no egos, just kids willing to work hard and follow instructions.

Sounds a bit optimistic to me, not all of the kids on loan have done well and there's a chance that the best of them may well be sold the way things are looking. And I still think it's a mistake to put kids who are still learning into a lousy team which includes some players who don't give a monkeys. It's just as easy some times to pick up bad habits. If as some have said on here that PM may have lost the dressing room and I tend to think he has, it's not the best setting for kids either. What a bloody shambles.

I was just trying to be positive and find rays of hope.

Spot on.

Last time we were relegated we were full of kids.

Gardner, Beaumont, Robertson, Perch. Probably a few I can't remember. Perch alone ended up with a career.

And then the prospect of starting league one with players like Carayol...

I don't think myself or LBL are advocating this, just trying to find any potential upside as it looks like it may well happen.

Probably clutching at straws but that's about the best I can do in this shit storm!
 
Having slept on it...I can't see any upside in this shit storm

Fawaz made a huge song and dance a while back that if he left forest then it would be in a better state...it's just lie upon lie with this cretin

The press need to grow a pair and get answers....there is no way the Americans will come back to the table because the clubs price plummets daily...fawaz wants money but is too thick to see he will get pretty much nothing at this rate

Added to the fact there is this emad bloke on twitter saying we have a new plan.....so the previous 4 years were what?

Utter utter bollocks

Just like I said weeks ago

This would not happen because of Fawaz being a fookwit and the incompetent JJM who can not close deals on football clubs

But some of the fantasists wanted to believe in their delusion that this was not a perfect storm of fookwittery


Moores might be a lot of things but he's not an incompetent or a fookwit, he's just not prepared to pay over the odds and will only do a deal if it's right for him.

I wouldn't know if the rumoured £15mn is the right price, but the £50mn that FAH is said to want certainly isn't. What do you suggest he pays? Give FAH what he wants to get rid of him because "it's the right thing to do"? Would make the fans happy but would also be the height of fookwittery for him.

Apparently if you look for positives and look for the best in people, then you are a fantasist. Fawaz's legacy will be that they have become an endangered species on vital.

And you are forgetting the biggest lie of all, remember his promise that he was not profiting from the Burke shite deal by asking for money up fron and no sell on. I believe he said that the 13m would be available in Jan! Well with the 3m from the inevitable Lansbury departure we will have 16m to spend! Let's see if he is a man of his word or just weasel. I know what my money is on, not that we have any staff at the club to organise effective recruitment of players anyway.
 
Fawaz probably thinks that the people that bought season tickets last summer will do so again this one, despite him still being owner. I think he's got a bit of a shock coming

Greedy? Incompetent at running a footy club? Maybe but he isn't a fool. At that price he knows he can sell everyone valuable at the club for more and then either sell for peanuts or put us in administration. Not that he would do that to OUR club!!
 
Anybody who drops the price at the last minute and expects a favourable outcome with Fawaz
is a fookwit

2 fookwits = fookwittery

He's failed 3x to buy a club

That is incompetence

If the deal comes back on in a few days time, will you still call our new owner a fookwit?

Yes I will

Because he's been trying to outfookwit a fookwit and lost
 
Do you really want to say that you lost against FAH and had to come begging back

THE SHAME OF IT

And you know that he dropped the price at the last minute? IF that was the case, and I'm not condoning it some might say that's making the most of the situation, ie being shrewd and driving a hard bargain.

And as has been said by various people, Swansea and Everton were completely different scenarios, ie Moores was one of several interested parties, one or some of which made a better offer which he lost out to - hard to see how that's classed as incompetence but of course the bloke's a multi-millionaire, incompetent fookwit...
