    Andersons a player I know a lot about, there are certain players I follow randomly, for some reason I followed Anderson since he left us. He is a player with great technique, and a manager like Bruce can get the best out of him, he has definitely not reached his potential as a player. I am more excited by this signing than by Heskey coming (if he does), I also followed Heskey all his career and the last year or eighteen months or so he has gone over the hill, am hoping to be proven wrong on this. I hope we don't pay over the odds for him as it might stop us getting other players in. Anderson will be a good signing for us.

    was TERRIBLE against us at the KC wasn't he? I'd sign Anderson or Jamall Campbell-Ryce who's a free agent!

    I agree with most of this, though I do think the wingers were let down by a lack of service from further back the pitch at times in the same way the strikers were. In some games they seemed threatening when they got the ball but would go 20 minutes at a time between touches. I'm not convinced Anderson would be the answer, I remember reading a thread on a Forest forum and they weren't very complimentary about him. I think they described him as 'a winger who doesn't beat his man, cross or score'.

    Paul Anderson would be a great addition to this squad. Especially on a free. Wouldn't mind having him back.
    I'd much rather have Josh King though. I feel as though King started to mature towards the end of his loan and his pace was a certain threat for any defence. I can remember the look on the Barnsley defender's faces when he came on and sprinted at them. They managed to run him out of play, but they then looked at each other as if to say, " **** me, he's quick".

    What other players have you followed?

    Surely they will sign for us.

    That's the most feeble attempt at trying to take a dig at The Tigers HCAFC. He never said that just because he's following the player, he's going to sign. The point he made quite clearly was:
    Why does everyone hate anyone on this board who spontaneously pops up with reliable information. If you don't agree with it, don't comment. Simples.

    I know it was, you total fanny.

    It wasn't a dig, just some lighthearted banter.

    How can you expect someone to take it as lighthearted banter when you didn't word it that way?

    I wrote it, so I should know.

    Look, let's see what The Tigers HCAFC makes of it.

    I'm sure he's pleased you are protecting him, but there really is no need.

    I thought Peter Taylor knew Anderson from Leicester and brought him with him.

    Remember seeing Anderson play in the Youth Cup for Liverpool and he was brilliant the commentators were ****ing over him like he was Ronaldo.

    Have to say Party, your a nice guy but when that nasty streak shows itself....whoosh!

    He'd be a great free on the lines of the Rosenior signing, obviously Paul never played Premiership or anything near but he is a very talented kid, and with his Tigers history why not let him have a chance. I'm sure Paul would have made a bigger impact on the wing than some of our players did last season, Stewart and Brady were very inconsistent.

    As he's under the age of 24 we will have to pay Forest compensation so he isn't free.

    I use to work with a lad who was mates with Anderson, he always told me that he never wanted to leave but was pushed out to make sure we could get Walsh to sign permanently

    With a new manager you usually find they bring something extra out of most of the players, maybe new tactics and methods and maybe a desire to impress. I am sure most of our younger players will feel that about Bruce and I would like to think any new players coming in want to do the same. Lets see how he does, if he comes, I expect he may be out to shine...hopefully...

    I must be on the same remedial wavelength as Party.

    Not only did I perceive it as light hearted banter I actually laughed at his comment.

    Way to go Party!!!!
