That is really unlucky for Forest. Shame they didn't pay up when they had the chance. What happens now is Arsenal offer £5m for Lascelles? Is Billy's promotion dream scuppered... again?

Who cares? It's ok for comedy value but not least bit interested in the scu m from down the road.

I thought they'd signed him?

Fawaz does seem to really struggle in the transfer dept. I wonder if their hostile communications relationship with the outside world has alienated them from the footballing community.

They still have Collins and Wilson (when fit) at the back though which is more than a handy CB pairing.

Looking at the strength of the Forest squad you would think they should be at least top 3.

But I thought they had him signed? FACT

There is a whole thread on their board about Hobbs signing for Forest. Thought when I saw that Chesters is out for 6 weeks that they would recall Hobbs. Davies and Fawaz busy wiping egg off face at the moment,

Tell you what...they are full of it....Some dogs mates of mine are telling me they don't need Hobbs as Wilson is back so they allowed him to go back.

Like the dropping of AMBER....GRIFF

It's shorter mate...

What do we call you face to face then from now? I've always called you 'Amber'

I prefer Griff anyway

Nah, he's more of an 'Amber' - gives character ...an identity.....a meaning to the boy from mid -Derbyshire.....

I'm born and bred in the Amber Valley and spent many hours as a kid fishing in the Amber between Wessington and Higham were stretts resides. but I've always been known as Griff. I've found it abit bizarre folk from here calling me Amber face to face when I had a girlfriend called Amber 20 years ago

Griff it is then

Jaaaccccck Hobbsssss oh oh oh
Jaaaccccck Hobbsssss oh oh oh
Faz was talking bull
and Jack went back to Hull

Fawaz: "We have agreed to pay Hull around £1 million"
Bruce: "Forest have agreed to pay Hull around £1 million."

Conclusion: The cheque bounced.
