To put it in perspective...the plans for Forest’s stadium improvements are estimated to cost £94m at the end of which they’ll have increased the capacity by 5000 and be able to seat about 1600 more than us. :O

And to think we got the stadium for something like minus £ 25 million
Built for around 35 million, sold for 80 million, bought back for 20 million.
According to the DT we’re favourites to sign young Everton starlet striker Lewis Dobbin on loan.
Hope he’s better than his name suggests...sure I remember him making his debut last season. Hopefully he can have the same impact as Leon Osman did...that’d do nicely.
Also allegedly interested in Kyle Joseph...another striker, from Swansea.
I'm wary of these loan stories in the press. The 2 year business plan the club and EFL agreed to includes no transfer/loan/agent fees in that time. That will reduce our chances of agreeing loan deals. Then there is the wage cap which could also be lower than the wage the "mother club" is paying a prospective loanee....
Definitely, for me at any rate, a case of I'll believe it when I see it.
Just googled Dobbin Derby to see if there was any further news on this rumoured loan deal. What was the first link in the list? One telling me that Dobbin Derby is a board game ;)
Played on Blackpool Beach?
Lots of good talk about him, though I know nothing of him myself. Encouraging though, Rosenier said he was eying up a couple of Prem loans, he seems to be doing the business so far.
He lends a bit of youth to the squad and strength in depth, as long as he keeps clear of the "cloggers" he could prove very useful.
…and Jack Stretton out to Carlisle on loan. Good for all sides IMO I think he was struggling for us and can hone his skills for a year to Carlisles benefit
