Cleon Posted July 10, 2012 Share Posted July 10, 2012 SIR Alex Ferguson allowed John Cofie to join Sheffield United on loan after being impressed by the South Yorkshire club’s style of play last season.Danny Wilson’s side were granted first refusal on the teenage centre-forward’s services because Ferguson views Bramall Lane as “providing the right environment” for Cofie’s “future development”.

Nottingham Forest Posted July 10, 2012 Share Posted July 10, 2012 Or Fergie sees that as a club, you're quite well known for bringing through young players. So he wants some of it, so loaning you players here and there will hopefully sweeten the deal. As and when a player he wants comes through? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nottingham Forest Posted July 10, 2012 Share Posted July 10, 2012 Adlene Guedioura. Only scored 2 goals last season. One for Wolves and one for us. They both won goals of the season in each club's award . An Algerian central midfielder who can attack, defend and has a decent shot on him as well. Plays for the team and never gives up. That's what I've gathered from what people have said, seen myself and radio and stuff. In our local paper, it was rumoured that he'd be available for around £750k. He's going into the last year of his contract and with Wolves having 45 senior players on their books. They'll be looking to reduce this most probably. Considering their new manager will probably want some of his own players, we could get him possibly. Guedioura has also said that he'd be willing to come back on a permanent basis should the opportunity arise. He only joined us on loan in Jan after a falling out with McCarthy I think. cms on here has tweeted that if McCarthy was to come in as manager, then Guedioura probably wouldn't come back as they don't get along. Or something along those lines. Guedioura favourited it. Goal vs Millwall - From about 1 minute. - From our game against Leeds where we won 7-3.

AcidBurn Posted July 10, 2012 Share Posted July 10, 2012 He kept Wolves up the first season although they were poor in his second season and it wasn't his fault we got relegated. As for signing players that will be there longer how do you know that? If that bloke score a few goals like that he might not be at Forest for long.

Nottingham Forest Posted July 10, 2012 Share Posted July 10, 2012 Correct, but McCarthy also spends alot of money on players. No thank you. Last thing we need is another David Platt. I'd sooner see Cotterill given a chance. Or for us to go for someone else. Not sure who though. Oh and I linked this the other day. If anyone read it. Then you probably would have enjoyed it. If you haven't, I'd suggest you read it as it's quite funny.

Nottingham Forest Posted July 10, 2012 Share Posted July 10, 2012 He kept Wolves in the Premiership two years in a row. He also got Sunderland relegated with the lowest amount of points from the Prem which was record for a long time iirc. Also has a habit of spending a fair of money on players as well and offering big wages(possibly). No thanks. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AcidBurn Posted July 10, 2012 Share Posted July 10, 2012 So you don't want a manager who has a track record of getting teams up from the Championship, strange. He also got Sunderland relegated with the lowest amount of points from the Prem which was record for a long time iirc. Also has a habit of spending a fair of money on players as well and offering big wages(possibly). No thanks. If you consider that his fault then you have very little knowledge of what happened.

Nottingham Forest Posted July 10, 2012 Share Posted July 10, 2012 He is, but Cotterill kept us up, United the squad and deserves a chance. Changing the manager now would just make things worse. Unless, of course. The takeover has been in the pipeline for a number of months and the new manager already knew and had some signings lined up. Although from what I've seen, there was another Middle Eastern Group who had exclusvity beforehand. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AcidBurn Posted July 10, 2012 Share Posted July 10, 2012 So you want a worse manager than Mick McCarthy? That is completely backward thinking. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nottingham Forest Posted July 10, 2012 Share Posted July 10, 2012 It's not. It's logic. The best manager isn't always the right fit for the club. Look at McClaren for example. Had done a good job with Boro, Twente and a few other clubs. Did shocking with some other teams. Cotterill seemed to get the squad united. The last thing we need is some massive changes now which could affect us for the bad. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gizmo7 Posted July 10, 2012 Share Posted July 10, 2012 McClaren is different. He was too big for the Championship. A bit like Sven. Whereas managers like Neil Warnock, Mick McCarthy, etc etc know the division like the back of their hand and know what it takes to get out of it.

Nottingham Forest Posted July 10, 2012 Share Posted July 10, 2012 Yeah but, they don't know how to stay in the division. Admittedly Warnock has been unlucky, but McCarthy hasn't. Just not overly excited at the prospect of him becoming our manager. I'd sooner us keep Cotterill. Or go after someone else. As of yet, I don't have any ideas who that could be.

Nottingham Forest Posted July 10, 2012 Share Posted July 10, 2012 Is Cotterill still manager now? Yes, at the moment. Paper rumours were saying he was going to be given a chance. Now on Twitter and in a few papers, it seems that their preferred choice is McCarthy. Although apparently before that it was Warnock. Who was apparently considering leaving should Leeds not have been taken over. Now that they have, he's willing to stay. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AcidBurn Posted July 10, 2012 Share Posted July 10, 2012 Funny thing about you mentioning McCarthy at Sunderland is that that clown Cotterill was Howard Wilkinsons assman for the run of 2 wins in 20 that led to Mick having the worst record ever in EPL at the time.

Nottingham Forest Posted July 10, 2012 Share Posted July 10, 2012 He's also contributed to Wolves being relegated from the Prem as well. So that's technically 2 clubs. So yeah, track record.
