    I think MCOs are a bad idea personally. But to get round the rules, you just have to fill in the forms and submit them at the right time. The rules are tissue paper thin, and are there for appearances.

    Submit them is what Marinakis did, and what Textor didn't.

    As an indication of how absurd the rules are, Marinakis' interest in Forest is held in a blind trust. This means that he can have no "decisive influence or control" there. This for a bloke who goes onto the pitch to berate a manager and holds contract negotiations with players, almost in public!

    He’s shocking mind.

    Lovely lad but should be nowhere near a prem squad.

    He even stood over MGW while he did his interview about signing his new deal and not going to Spurs! It was like some mafia boss making sure his hostage said the right things.

    Maybe we will start to ship a few out now . It must be a bit of a mare keeping everybody in line and avoid disruption at AOL

    Don't think we need worry too much about European tie-ups just yet. We're a year ahead of KLD 5 year plan.....wouldn't surprise me if this season was year 1 of another.

    over the years the bedrock of nearly every successful team was based on a solid defence and especially a great goal keeper...Fingers crossed this dutch lad is the one, the clips does show his ability.
    We just need one or two commanding centre half's now and I will comfortable going into the West Ham game...our squad is taking shape, exciting times

    If the experience isn't coming from a keeper then perhaps Lucumi makes even more sense as a CB in his prime.

    Just an average keeper. We’ve had worse starting regularly.

    Players who have been told to leave, are not there at the same time as the first team so has zero impact

    have to come in at a separate time

    It's impossible mate, the club are running rings around the media and feeding them exactly what they want them to know.

    It reminds me of Homer Simpson pouring in salt water and fresh water for 'Pinchy' his lobster <laugh>

    It's great for the supporters because we can just sit back and watch things unfold.

    What’s the craic on him? I’ve been busy the last couple of days. Sure I’ve seen a likely to sign and not likely to sign report. Roef shows that we may have other things going on under the radar.

    Their tissue paper thin but also ridiculously in-forced an Irish team has been kicked out of Europe because their owners bought a team after the deadline who are also in the European competition.
    There’s not a lot of money in Irish football and they had gotten in through the cup even one round would’ve made a difference

    The media for Lucumi is playing out as it did for Xhaka

    all noise is Italian outlets and papers driving up Bologna’s price, saying he’s not for sale, saying other clubs want him

    despite the fact they’re busy trying to sign his replacement
