Has fawaz run over a black cat?!?

What on earth is going on with Nottingham forest and injuries to our key players?!?!?

Is it just us? I can't remember anything ever happening like the last few seasons it's ridiculous.

Here's a few off the top of my head from the last 12 months:

Hobbs
Wilson
Mancienne (thought he just had a cold!)
Cohen
Reid
Assombslonga

These are massive players for us.

There's plenty I've missed off the list.

So what is going on! Are we just unlucky?
Or is something sinister afoot??

I have never seen such such a pathetic post, Injuries are part and parcel with running a foorball club, Forest have had the advantage of a multi millionaire with more money than sense yet still seem unable to put out a team with half the quality if a team like Bournemouth. All teams get injuries but why is it that Forest claim that is the reason they are not challenging for a premiership place. Reason they are so badly managed they are looking for any excuse.

More money then sense?

Money = Loads

Sense = None.

You're right Spart.

I reckon he's run over many a black cat as he thrashes one of his supercars around the streets of Kuwait City, immune from prosecution. I don't understandwhy he ever invested in Forest, it's way beyond his closeted bubble and when he steps outside of it he totally screws up.

They say that if I lion could speak English you wouldn't understand what he's on about because his experiences are totally different to yours. That pretty much sums him up.

No spart....
The only pathetic thing is you checking on a Nottingham forest post on the Nottingham forest board at half past one in the morning

No one has said anything in this post about it costing us promotion - apart from you.

But chin up chicken, it's valentines day ..... You never know, someone out there loves ya I'm sure.

Injuries happen. Every club could produce a similar list. You just have to get on with it.

So you've lost half a dozen of your first choice players, who would otherwise be guaranteed a start? I don't think so.

Barker, Thorne, Martin, Russell, Albentosa would all be first-choice starters. Ward and Dawkins have returned from injury in the last couple of weeks.

Close enough.

I think you over-egg the pudding OOE.

Barker - You've only had half a dozen transfer/loan windows to find a replacment.
Thorne - Was he not injured and ruled out long term in pre-season.
Martin - Only a recent injury, sounds like he will back in a few weeks.
Russell - Fair enough.
Ward - Injury prone.
Albentosa - How can you claim that he is a big miss?
Dawkins - ? Not heard many Derby fans talk about what a big loss he is.

Omar:

The question was "So you've lost half a dozen of your first-choice players…."

I answered the question. So whining about Florist's long-term injuries is exactly the same - a waste of time and space. You buy sick notes like Cohen - and of course if Assombalonga is out for three years like Barker has been, then he won't count as injured either, I suppose.

Discounting players because they have been injured for too long or discounting players because they haven't been injured for long enough just makes you look like an idiot.

I could throw in Grant (missing for months earlier in the season), Dawkins (missing for months earlier in the season) or Hughes, or Bryson, or Hendrick - all have been out injured for a period of this season.

The fact that Forest cannot replace your injured players is down to long-term crass mismanagement and flagrant flouting of FFP regulations.

Tough titty.
