Someone sack the Spurs manager, he's doing terrible! Good luck in Europe, you've been handed a relatively easy tie, so stand a good chance of progressing! B)
No make sure the Spurs manager stays in the job. Great update Jason and some good results too. I think you got a decent draw in the CL as well.
Trop Yes I did beat them and you know what I REALLLLLLLLY enjoyed it :)

Nick If you want to know who the spurs manager is then just ask :P

Jozef Yes I have and I think I have a good chance! :)

Nottingham Forest Splash Cash


So I know that I said I was going to splash the cash this January so I made sure that I did to make sure we can challenge the boys at the top because we are lying third in the McDonald's Premier League. So lets start with the lowest transfer's first. I used up all of Antonio Cirjak's transfer fee plus the bit I had left from the budget.

Felipe comes in from American side Colorado Rapids for £2,800,000. The American who has been in amazing form in the M.L.S sealed a January move to The Reds.

Felipe who is a name that will probably be more familiar to fans in the U.S.A than England has had just one International appearance against South Africa back in November 2025.

Felipe started his career at Colorado Rapids in January 2021, breaking into the first team in 2025 and making a total of 33 league appearances and has scored one solitary goal for the club. Felipe won last season's VISA Defender Of The Year Award which ultimately got him this move.

I can not wait to challenge for a place in the starting line up here at Forest. I really want to do well for this club and I can not wait! said Felipe.

Next in is youngster Gwen Lecarpentier from French club Stade Rennais FC for £7,000,000.

The 16 year old Frenchman has a big future ahead of him and I can not wait to see this player develop. I want to thank Kevin Keegan for buying me and having faith in me. I have researched this club and this Manager and I am happy he has gone for me!

Next up is Ludovico Gaione, the Italian 17 year old moves to Forest from Chievo for £12,250,000.

Gaione played twice for Chievo in two years after being signed as a 15 year old and I think has a big future ahead of him.

Next up is Guido Vadala who has been bought for £23,500,000 from Bologna in Italy.

Guido is truly one of world football's global superstars. He mad ehis Argentine debut against Mexico in October 2022 and has gone on to make 21 appearances for his country.

Vandala started his career at Boca Juniors in 2012/2013, breaking into the first team in 2013 and made 21 appearances, scoring one goal for the club. He also went out on loan to ADO Den Haag and Velez, making a combined 27 appearances and scoring 2 goals.

Vandala's Los Xeneizies side also lifted the under 20 Copa Libertadores in 2015. In December of 2018 he joined Newell's Old Boys for £1,200,000 and made 16 appearances where he scored 3 goals.

In July 2020 he joined former loan club velez permanently where he made 97 league appearances and scored 23 goals. Vadala's Argentina Under 23's team also had won Gold at the 2024 Olympic games in Egypt.

Vadala has also been nominated 3 times on the World Golden Ball List. He had this to say about his Forest move. I am delighted to be in England to play for one of the biggest clubs in the Midlands and I can not wait to entertain fans.

Next in is Tempitope Knight, 20 from Southampton for £25,500,000. This seems a lot to pay for the young Centre Back but I think it is a fantastic deal and I know full well he will be a superstar.

Knight is a player with a growing reputation among the English Football fans.
He started his career at Southampton in January 2021, he broke into there first team in 2024 and made just 3 appearances. During his time at The Saints though he was farmed out on loan to Derby County, where he made 12 league appearances. During his time with Southampton, England Under 20's and Under 19's, Knights team lifted the English Under 18s Group 1 Trophy in 2022 and 2024, won the Under 21s Cup in 2023, won the English Under 21s Group 1 in 2023, won the French Youth Invitational Trophy in 2023 and won the European Under 19 Championship in 2023 and 2024.

He is also delighted to be here. This was a tough move for me being a Saints fan but the thought of the legend Kevin Keegan managing me I had to have a go.

Lastly and the most expensive signing of all is Colin Kyle for £39,000,000. Well it i s £29,000,000 with £10m of add ons on. This is a huge signing and a lot of pressure will be on the former Watford man to succeed.

Kyle is well-known to fans across Europe. He started his career at Watford in December 2017 and it took him 4 years to break into the Watford first team. He made a total of 88 appearances and scored 31 goals which to me is a very good return on investment.
He was part of the England Under 19 team that won the European Championships in 2023 and 2024, he even won the golden boot in both them years and this is going to be an awesome signing for us.[/i
Knight looks like a right tank! Hope they do well :P
Trop I really hope so. We will see
Wooow, mate, terrific youngsters. Can't wait too to see them develop. Good luck!
Adrian18Ro Thanks I can not wait to look out for them either
quality signings there :)
Great signings
Patrick1 & Bayern Thanks I hope to win matches with them

Youngster Out For Five To Six Weeks!


With Augustin Allione still out with his broken leg and Jamie Nightingale suffering from fatigue I decided to start Hatib Kinteh against Spurs. It proved to be good when at 2-2 I had made all my subs he got injured twisting his knee when going to collect a pass from Gajski.

My Physio David Binningsley has reported he will be out for upto six weeks after he suffered a strained knee.

I am devastated because with Allione out and Jamie suffering I had a big chance to stake a claim to be the right midfielder and that has now obviously failed and I am very upset and hope that Keegan can include me again once my injury has cured.

Luke Shaw Signs New Deal


Nottingham Forest's Luke Shaw today signed a new deal signalling his intention to finish his career at The City Ground.

[URL=https://imageshack.com/i/mhrwtbj][/URL]

Shaw(pictured above) has signed a 2 year extension since signing from Bayern Munich for 22,500,000. He is now on 155,000 a week, and will go through until 2030.

I personally am very happy that he is staying as I need players like Luke to bring through the younger generation and I for one can not wait to challenge for the Premier League title with Luke in the squad. I also want him to captain this club from the beginning of next year so that I can not wait for.

I am very happy to be staying at Nottingham Forest and I will help bring success here. Kevin knows what he is doing, and playing with a player like Gabriele Ghedin, who has scored EIGHTEEN goals already this season and he is so young I want to be part of this generation of Forest players.
Since I was online last time, you've done some brilliat tranfers mate! I love this story, keep it up!
