I'm not really sure why so many Forest fans are against the idea of us signing Boyd. But they are.
He's obviously got talent and posh fans say he always gives 100% yet a lot of Forest fans view him as lazy.
Seems to divide opinion
I saw nothing that would change my mind. Bad egg may be the wrong term. I just don't think he will fit in here. He is Posh through and through and should stick with them.
I don't mind either, they're both good players at this level and worth a punt to get us into the play-offs. I don't think Boyd is a bad egg but is very much the type of player you have to suit your style to play with. Mind you I'd include Reid in that category too, undoubtedly quality but has bad points as well as good.
Recently put on the BBC transfer site, cut & pasted:
BBC WM is reporting that Nottingham Forest have made a second bid for Birmingham City winger Chris Burke. The Reds had previously had an offer of £300,000 turned down, and though the exact figure of the new bid hasn't been revealed, the Blues say it's being considered.
And Boyd is off to Palace, apparently.
We have refused to bid any higher, after a second bid for Burke (500k) got rejected by Birmingham.
I kind of agree with this; not paying over the odds for a player who is out of contract in the summer.
Brum are being a bit daft, they need the wanga.
