We was interested in getting him before Middlesbrough beat us to the signing.
Hall Of Fame
Middlesborough didn't beat us to anything, we were never in the running to sign him because Fawaz said he would NEVER sell his prize striker to their rival
Stop making things up

Any more of this complacency and Ronaldo will sign for us!!

We offered Forest £6-8m for him but Middlesbrough offered £15m and won the battle, which at the time Derby weren't going to match that offer and we got the likes of Cameron Jerome & David Nugent and the rest was history, how things would of been different if we had matched that offer.

Yes! we was in the running and cause Fawaz said he would never sell his prize asset to a rival, doesn’t mean he wouldn’t sell him if we offered a good price given the current financial situation that Forest was under at that time which is why they had to sell him in the first place.

Like i said Fawaz said he would never sell to us so we were never in the running to sign him......END OF!
Hall Of Fame
Like I said cause someone said they were never going to sell doesn’t mean it will end up that way.... End Of!

Middlesbrough 2-0 up.... so it’s us vs Preston for the final spot on the final day and Burton will have to do us a favour, whilst we do them a favour by beating Barnsley but who knows what will happen on the season ending drama as we all seen before it could end up we both miss out or we could both earn something at the end of the day.

LOL you friggin baffoon, thats exactly how it did end up......he didn't sell to us!
