2 'New' Signings

Well we've signed 2 players this week (well one of them is just siging a new contract). Danny Cullip has signed from Sheffield United, the lads a Central Defender and I reckon could be a decent signing, Warnocks players tend to have a bit of fight about them.Whether he'll be ready for Saturday is another matter, I think the best he can hope for is a place on the bench at first while he gets settled in.

The other one is John Curtis and the less said about him the better, personally I'd rather have seen the club show him the door. The offer of a new contract has been there since May and Curtis has sat there waiting to see if anyone else was interested in signing him, unfortunately no one was so he had no choice but to come and play for us. I think Megson should have given him till mid June to make up his mind, if he's not committed to playing for us then he shouldn't be in the team we had too many players last season who were just going through the motions and picking up their pay checks and look where that got us.

On a positive note looks like there's going to be a good crowd for Saturday. Huddersfield have sold their allocation of 2,500 with the possibilty of more being made available to them. Forest have sold about 17,000 and with people who turn up on the day and buy a ticket we're looking at a crowd of over 20,000. Pretty damn good for a third division side, maybe the board will realise one day what great fans we really are.
