I'm hopeful he's come good. I don't know whether he's ever started five games in a row for us but it's not often. Didn't think he was at his best yesterday but had two or three players on him all game. Still kept them occupied though and not helped by the referee refusing to give him deserved...

This is what frustrates me. He had a mixed season last year, making some mistakes but also winning us crucial points. He was not poor. Our strikers who hardly scored were poor. Our defence, which was in the top 8 in the league despite us finishing 20th, were not poor. As for yesterday, can't...

Are you seriously suggesting that Kuipers is our best keeper in recent years? Roberts was comfortably better as was Kuszczak and I would say that Stockdale is significantly better too. Kuipers was great for us but the real issue is that some people are so blinded by Kuipers (and could never see...

That's a very negative way of looking at it. Who's to say where we, Fulham and Forest will finish this season with only two games gone. And we lost to a lot of poor teams last season. As for yesterday, we did hold on a bit in the last 20 minutes but we were brilliant for the first 40 minutes and...

Totally agree re Marshall. He's the one of the wingers we've been linked with this summer who I really want us to sign. Murphy is proven in League 1 but so was CMS (and Baldock although I think he'll come good this season) and the Alireza Jahanbakhsh has never played in England before. Marshall...

There will definitely be fans who weren't going to come attracted by the return of Zamora. Coupled with a decent following from Forest and that it is the first game of the season, I think the official attendance might hit 28,000 (the reality will be a bit less as some season ticket holders will...

I think he might get to double figures. I know that seems a lot, given what he's scored in recent years, but he and the club will be lifted by his return and if he stays fit (and we can sign a couple of wingers to give him, Baldock and Hemed chances), I'm confident he'll score more than last...

I think that's true. I'd be surprised if he starts but I'm confident he'll be on the bench. Given, assuming we start with the same team as Sunday, that our attacking options off the bench are Colunga, who's future is in doubt as Hughton doesn't seem to rate, and O'Grady, who's only league goal...

Sums it up perfectly. Can't wait to see the reception he gets on Friday. Even if he's not in the 18, I assume he'll be around.

Yes, I was. Got my first season ticket in the first season at Withdean, although had been watching since 1990. Zamora was the first real hero for my generation (after all the issues the club had been through). To be honest, I'd been questioning the logic of signing Zamora all summer but the...

Thought he did okay for us, especially towards the end, but don't think he's worth £2.5 million at the moment. However, I suppose you'd be buying him for his potential rather than because he's worth that at the moment. Given our budget, I wouldn't want to spend that much on him, especially as...

It's an interesting shout. Potentially a bit cheaper than someone like Keogh and hopefully will cover us for a year or two while Rea develops. I'd also hope it means we could focus more money on getting the wingers we need. Only question mark is why Huddersfield would let him go, unless he wants...

It wasn't the most exciting ever but we were severely limited by injuries. There were good games in it though and we came sixth. CMS, Orlandi and Hoskins hardly played, Bridcutt missed the first half of the season and then left, Buckley didn't play much, Barnes left in January, Ulloa missed...

Why? Most of our signings have been at 6/7 O'Clock with hardly any notice. It was only last week that they were earlier in the day. Not saying there will be signings today but evidence doesn't agree with your statement.

Pretty much proves my point about you. We got to the play offs. The football may not have been great but the squad was good enough to come sixth despite a horrendous run of injuries. It's very harsh to say that we barely deserved a play off place when you look at how many injuries we had that...

In fairness, proven Championship signings generally cost a lot of money and we'd be competing with most clubs in the division. You have to take punts. Ulloa was a punt and was very successful as have a number of others we took in recent years. Bong at least has some Championship experience while...

This is everything that is wrong with NSC. There's no debate. If you're not in the in crowd and attacking the club, you get abuse like this. It's pathetic. For what it's worth, as others have said we clearly have a stronger squad than this time last year. It's not enough and nobody is saying we...

Last comment on this, how do you know any of this? Are you involved in negotiations because you seem pretty sure of yourself? Or are you just making up stuff to fit your argument. If Blackburn want £10 million for Marshall should we pay that to pacify fans even though he's not worth anywhere...

You keep saying B but where have I said I don't understand it. What are you on about? Of course it takes into account income. It would be a bizarre system if it didn't. I really don't get your point. As for being one of Bloom's biggest fans, you don't seem to trust him and the team he has...

You're the one who seems to think we've got a god given right to make loads of signings by mid July and you're calling others arrogant.
