Well, I wouldn't buy a second-hand fridge off them

It would would be less of a risk than investing in a hedge fund with Jeff Martinovich OOE.

I wouldn't invest in hedge trimmers with Jeff Martinovich, Cousin Omar.

If there was anything in this story I'm sure it would get more than 1 paragraph in a minor tabloid.

I understand that this was a BACS error involving some payments to youth team players. As ever, a journalist is trying to make a story out of nothing. There is no issue with the backing of the Al-Hasawis. There was evidence shown of a significant amount of funds during very thorough due diligence, so there is nothing to get worked up about.

i dont know why we are wasting our time on this rubbish. the Al-Hasawis are great for our club

Bob - because it winds you up, probably.

you might be right there one- eye

This is a really good inset into the mind of your average Forest fan. Quite happy to hound out of the club, a local, fully accountable, Forest supporting Chairman who invested £100m into the club he loves and yet are quick to defend a bunch of untouchable, distant, non supporting Kuwaitis.

I don't get it!

And this in to the mind of a Derby fans. Many more Derby fans sang about Doughtys death than Forest fans protested against him. They happily laughed at us for spending millions and still being rubbish. Yet they're quite happy to claim the moral high ground and use his death to score pretty points.

I wanted ND out and I wanted new owners. I'm happy to admit it. That was my opinion. And so far it's been good for the club. I never said he didn't want what's best for our club. Only that he wasn't the best. His death was sad. But my opinion is my opinion regardless.

Yet they all sit and deny they ever wanted this

No they don't.

Come off it, sutton.

You know darned right that the uncalled-for chants about Doughty lasted about 10 seconds, and (I'm not excusing them in any way) were in direct response to Forest fans chanting 'Let him die' when Shaun Barker was lying on the pitch in front of you. They were very swiftly cried down..

Rubbish.

Total and absolute tosh.

I shouldn't have even dignified that with a reply.

Good owd Sutton trying to put the blame on a few chanting Derby idiots when Doughty was exiled from his own club. Have you no shame.

Blame for what?

And a few?

Trying to pin guilt onto us. He was your Chairman and he couldn't go back to the City ground yet you have a pop at a few Derby idiots. Are you all in denial.

I'm not trying to pin guilt on anyone. You're the one trying to make people feel guilty all I'm doing is pointing out, after the way you lot laughed at his performance as our owner and the songs you sang about him. You're in no position to claim the moral high ground.

You're the one who came on with the guilt trip. You brought his name in to this to score points when there was really no need.

A few chanting supporters??? What a joke.

Just trying to understand the mentality of jumping to the support of people you don't know who bought you on the cheap.

Rubbish.

The mentality is easy to understand. Our current owners have been great so far. Invested without going crazy and they've been very open with us fans. So we like them. How's that hard to work out?

What you were doing is banding a dead mans name around to score a few points on a Internet forum.

2 forest fans both in denial.

This thread is about your owners. Their dream of turning the City ground into a Mecca for Arab football hit the skids and this is perhaps evidence of them distancing themselves and yet your first instinct is to jump to their support. That's what I find odd.

All clubs have fans that we'd happily drown if it was legal, so less of the self righteousness please. You only have to spend 5 minutes on twatter to see that.

Jumping to the support of owners that have put millions in already? That have communicated we with fans, that named the academy after our late owner and had at least one owner attend every game.

Should we get on the backs because of a few unsubstantiated reports in the paper.

And no, i didn't protest against ND, but i was at Derby last season and know what i saw and heard.

Despicable.

Our first instinct is to defend people we feel are good for our club. Yes we're bonkers.

So far they've been almost faultless as owners. If you find it hard to understand why we'd defend them I think that says more about you than us.
