Best Forest Signing In The Last 20 Years - Sniffer Dog (Admin) - 13-10-2022

I realise it's a difficult question to answer but in your opinion who is the best Forest signing in the last 20 years?

Having given it some thought I think I will go for Chris Cohen.

^wouldn't be in my top 20!

I'd go for Lewis Grabban

Steve Cooper?

If you want a player probably Antonio was the best all be it short lived.
But we picked him up for £1.5m I think and Wednesday fans all assured us that he was crap. Pretty decent bit of business by us, wish we could unearth a few more gems like him.

CC wouldn't make your top 20?

He was a top player who stayed with us for more than 10 years and played about 300 games. He was our captain and came back from THREE horrific knee injuries. I am intrigued which 20 player's you would have ahead of him all things considered. I won't consider any player who was only here for a few months or one season.

Britt was a good signing. Paid a fair whack for him but sold him for a small fortune. 

Scored a few goals for us too.

His contribution to Nottingham Forest Football Club was immense.

Just watched Geddy's goal v Wolves from 2012. What a cracker that was.

He was a top draw signing. Kept us up that year along with Elokobi.


RE: Best Forest Signing In The Last 20 Years - Paplane - 14-10-2022

Ive just done a brainstorm. Here's some candidates for best signing. 

Britt, 

Blackstock, Gunter, McClearly, Earnshaw, Radi, Geddy, Lichaj, Antonio, Vaughan, Paul McKenna, Cash, Grabban, Lolley. Spence, Davis, Garner.

Paul McKenna stands out. Blackstock and Geddy made huge contributions when we were struggling. Earnshaw scored some good goals. Lichaj put in season after season of consistent performances. 

Spence has to be up there. He was phenomenal, as was Davis.

Don’t forget goalies.

De Vries and Samba both worth a mention
