Well i saw all of the match and out of all the appeals for penalties for both sides Osulas appeal was the most clear cut one .I thought it was one and that is a non bias view .No doubt Forest fans would not agree but i am being honest when i say it was a penalty.Not sure what other people think, but it looks like Osula could have had a possible shout for a penalty in the first half (only saw the long highlights on Sky), defender caught him late as Osula was playing the ball but depends if there was enough contact.
Obviously it's up for debate as to how much stock to put in the words of El Accounto and I'm one of those that wish he'd just shut up now but if we assume he is something of the Prince's PR mouthpiece who's tasked with softening up the ground for unpopular decisions, he has been banging the drum about the loan market and what great value it is for getting quality you wouldn't afford normally etc etc for the past day or so. He's also gone on at length previously about how you can't really sort out any loans until the end of the window and "see where we are in september".My point was that we are in the market we are in - which is accepted for obvious reasons - but even within that market we are still not in the ball park for what seem to be Heck's prime targets (Archer / Akpom / Doyle) .
Therefore, if we are not wanting to / can`t afford / whatever - in that market , as has been said - where next ? thats my whole point
We have positioned ourselves to operate at a certain level so that we don't financially commit suicide , but we aren't doing so at the moment - maybe we will ? But time is passing and before we know it 4/5 games will have gone and we may be playing catch up with a poorly equipped squad
But if we dont, the likelihood is that we won't be able to compete in the Prem - many are seeing this therefore they are worried and confused as Ito what the actual plan is .
It's never been more apparent than this season. I want to give the benefit of the doubt and put it down to a general societal trend toward lack of patience and inability to delay gratification, but some of the stuff on here recently is just batshit mental.You have to remember that we have a few fans with hearts the size of a pea.
Hearing we’ve had a tip off and sent the entire scouting team out to see an experienced number 10 currently based in LA…I believe this is incorrect, I have been reliably informed they have been watching the MLS and have scouts in Texas, Alabama, Florida etc
Would he come with a walking stick?Hearing we’ve had a tip off and sent the entire scouting team out to see an experienced number 10 currently based in LA…

Lucky boy I only need a lollipop stick.Would he come with a walking stick?
You never know mateI presume that doesn’t stop Villa coming back to us though.
You never know mate
Don’t agree with this, this time around if we get relegated we will not make the same mistake again and have financial difficulties and possible admin breathing down our neck so we will sell anyone we can, Hamer, Sousa etc will be sold pretty much straight away, and anyone else who attracts any bids.
We do not need to build a team for the championship, we need to build a team to avoid relegation. It’s our only hope of taking this club forward because I cannot see us getting promoted again for a very long time.
We tried but villa want the sale and want a big feeAny reason we're not exploring it as a loan / loan to buy option?
We tried but villa want the sale and want a big fee
We tried but villa want the sale and want a big fee
Don’t know the full in and outs but it was enough for us to walk away. They wanted £18m, I dunno if that was the full fee or with add ons etc but that’s what I was told.Was it just the fee that put us off, or the fee and the buy-back?
Correct - not great is the least phrase i would useObviously it's up for debate as to how much stock to put in the words of El Accounto and I'm one of those that wish he'd just shut up now but if we assume he is something of the Prince's PR mouthpiece who's tasked with softening up the ground for unpopular decisions, he has been banging the drum about the loan market and what great value it is for getting quality you wouldn't afford normally etc etc for the past day or so. He's also gone on at length previously about how you can't really sort out any loans until the end of the window and "see where we are in september".
So it could be that that's where it's at now. Loans, August written off, hope that we aren't too much adrift and if we do manage loan someone, they hit the ground running.
Not great.
Beat Forest (a young Roy Keane scored their goal) and we were up and running!Season is done? Eh? What after 3 games (including City game) ?
Whilst things look bleak, we don’t give up that easily. Just remember the first season back under Bassett. What was it, a massive 4 points accrued leading up to Xmas fixtures? Did we go down?
What a match that was! Amazing scenes.Beat Forest (a young Roy Keane scored their goal) and we were up and running!
...and Stuart Pearce, outside of foot curler!Beat Forest (a young Roy Keane scored their goal) and we were up and running!
What a complete joke so why's Daren smith saying loans onlyWe have dropped out for archer and there are no plans to revisit
Yes…carry on…we’re listeningI am not sure it’s true about pulling out of Doyle and archer…….
And a few extra…..

Heard?Heard we might be going down the “fuck the cost, we will put up rather than shut up” route.
Might !
UTB
Yes.Heard?
What a mental route.Heard we might be going down the “fuck the cost, we will put up rather than shut up” route.

Don’t disagree. But it’s not our decision. Is it !What a mental route.
