Holt's gone!

Norwich better look after him...

Holt is a much higher class of player than league 2... hopefully the money might get us a few decent players.

Says undisclosed, but it's probably around the same amount you paid; £170,000? He definitely wouldn't have left for less than a six-figure amount.

I've heard it was £470,000

Christ what a profit! We should have stuck a % of Next Sale clause in his sale to you!

That is only rumor mind!! But yes it is a nice profit if true!

£450,000 confirmed...ni-iiiice...Forest only paid Rochdale £300,000 in the beginning too!

Darren Bent's probably asking for trouble if his Twitter account is actually his; basically telling the Tottenham chairman to "stop f****** about" (Levy is holding out for as much of the £16.5million he paid for Bent in the first place; Sunderland have bid around £15million)

Football legend Sir Bobby Robson has died. A true Newcastle Messiah and footballing god.

Dah dah dah! GOOOALLLL Robinson puts Shrewsbury second in the league! Now to stay there...

Shouldn't be too hard, given you have just about the easiest possible opening fixture....

Ahhh but this is Shrewsbury! More than anything could happen..

The one score that has stood out to me today is: Norwich 0-5 Colchester

7-1 it finished! Good grief!

Forest couldn't go one match without a red card; thank goodness we still held on for a 0-0 draw!

Oi. Oi. Oi. 1 week left to sign up for Fantasy Premier League 2009/10. There are no excuse for not signing up whatsoever it only takes about 2 minutes to sign up and sort it all out...
