My man, in terms of "we tried but the other club moved the goalposts", that's a homerun for Levy. I mean, it's perfect as far as he's concerned...club can come out with its usual bullshit of "MGW was Thomas' No 1 pick", "No point signing an alternative not really fancied by the boss", "No point signing someone that's not gonna improve what we've already got" etc etc. And he doesn't spend a penny.

That Forest owner/chairman is an absolute cunt, but let's be honest...so us ours.

Tel, Takai and Kudus come July 22nd, after finishing 17th with 22 losses...that's inexcusable.

OK, so we're all bored AF, so what do you think is gonna happen with this "saga"?

Here are the options according to AI:

The transfer saga surrounding Morgan Gibbs-White, primarily involving Nottingham Forest and Tottenham Hotspur, presents several potential resolutions:
  • Tottenham pushing through the original contract: Tottenham might believe they have sufficient legal grounds to activate the £60 million release clause and complete the transfer as initially intended. This would hinge on the validity of the clause and their actions not being deemed an unlawful approach.
  • Tottenham offering a higher transfer fee: To avoid a protracted legal dispute and expedite the deal, Tottenham could opt to pay more than the original release clause. This would likely be a way to smooth over relations with Nottingham Forest, who believe the clause undervalues Gibbs-White.
  • Gibbs-White taking action: While considered less likely, Gibbs-White could potentially initiate legal action if he feels the current uncertainty is a rejection of his agreed-upon buyout clause. However, his current compliance with Forest's training and friendly matches suggests this is not his preferred route.
  • Gibbs-White remaining at Nottingham Forest: This could occur if Nottingham Forest's legal claims regarding an unlawful approach are upheld, blocking the move. Alternatively, Gibbs-White himself might decide the hassle is too much and choose to stay, potentially looking for a move in a future transfer window when he has less time left on his contract. Forest has also been trying to persuade him to sign a new deal with an increased or removed buyout clause.
  • Another club swooping in: Given the strained relationship between Forest and Tottenham, Forest might be more receptive to offers from other clubs. Manchester City has been linked with Gibbs-White, with a potential deal involving James McAtee moving to Forest plus cash.

Spurs pulling out
 
I still think MGW will get done,Marinakis is a tough negotiator but not a fool . I doubt he wants a disgruntled player hanging around . He buys and sells players like I change my pants , ie almost fortnightly.
I might be a Levy sceptic but my gut feel is this still happens .
 
We’ll be busy this week, right?

Lots of signings, lots of outgoings, right?

We’re coming off the back of a 17th place league finish. SURELY, the club are going to make significant improvements to our squad before we go on pre season tour. Right?
