Just been talking to a couple of forest fans who said that Mighten played Central striker all the way through their academy and has played there a few times for the first team. They mainly played him wide in the first team to bed him in, but they say he was very good in academy up front and his pace frightens people and its probably his more natural position. 

They cheered me up slightly, but you can guarantee that we'll play him left back regardless. 

What's this pace thing that you speak of? 🤔

Especially if the bacon is cooked on a tin plate.

Grilled with the cheshire cheese next to it.  The bacon put on oatcake and then the cheese scooped on to the bacon.  Rolled up and dipped into the juices.

On another note, I see that Harry McKirdy is back at Swindon on loan.

*** OVF PRESS RELEASE ***

I'd just like to reassure all our regular readers that plans are already well in place for the summer transfers and rumours thread.

We have employed a team of experts to ensure that only the very best rumours and transfers are posted on this thread. We are scouring the whole planet for the best ones. 

We noted that on our recent fans forum (or forum as we call it on OVF) some people were concerned at the proportion of rumours to actual transfers on our recent January transfers and rumours thread. 

We intend to address that imbalance by temporarily posting transfers involving Man Utd, Spurs and Liverpool* on our forthcoming summer transfers and rumours thread. This meets our goal to be a trusted forum where top-level transfers can appear for a short period of time and grow in the welcoming environment of a lower league forum.

Please note we have recently made some changes to our word filter after a request from a few people... phrases that will no longer be accepted on future transfers and rumours thread include "That player needs a thorough medical", "How about not waiting till the final day to make signings?" and "How about signing a ***** striker." 

We hope you understand. 

The OVF team

*Liverpool transfers will only remain on the thread for a short period of time

PVFC, I can’t believe what the topic of conversation is on here, the day after transfer deadline day. I’ve even commented on it myself ffs🤦

It's a phenomenon only ever normally seen around the Hamil road area post match in my attempt to beat May Street Chippy queues. You should see the steam on my shoes.

... I thought Jones had been back in full training for at least 2 weeks, possibly 3, so when is he going to be available to play?  Perhaps when the sports scientists give their permission? What would they do if Jones said and felt that he was fully fit, but the sports mob said he hadn't been out for the required recovery time, as per their medical book?

He'll be fit and ripping it up just as his contract is about to expire.

Oh you old cynic Darren.

I think the only ripping up should be his contract.

Conor Grant also has a year left.

Who came up with these contracts? At any other club it would be here's a year and an option of another one if you hit a certain level of appearances.

Bizarrely, they managed to do something like that with Wilson so it's staggering that he's treated one way and two other, equally injury-prone players are given two year deals. The inconsistency...
