He seems to be dragging it out a bit ... kind of comes across as though he's hanging on to see what his best offer will be! I personally won't be sad to see him go (if he does) - but if he stays he's gonna have to prove, on the pitch, that he can be an asset to NFFC, because last year, he wasn't.
But can't criticise the NEP too much .. they have to fill their back pages with something!
League One
Did you catch the end of last season ... we stayed up
Apparently we haven’t offered him anything yet. He might just be waiting to see if we can actually offer him anything. It might be that he would stay with us if we offered him half of what Ipswich are offering him.
Moving house isn’t a small thing.... I don’t know if he has kids, but it would mean moving them away form there friends to a new school etc.
He might just want to stay on whatever Forest will pay him. He can’t exactly say that he is staying at forest, as we haven’t offered him anything yet.
Its that clown Paul taylor just writing vomit as per usual. We suppsoed to beleive Chambers is distraught about leaving for twice the money, all he's doing is hanging on till Monday when the TO is supposedly finislaised to see if we can match the terms so he doesnt have to bother moving! All so pompous and false, bit like Paul Taylor - worst football journo in England!
Why is everyone so anti Chambers? He clearly wants to stay at Forest and is hoping we can offer him something once the takeover has been completed. At the end of the day, we need a player like Chambers. He had a tough season, and a tough private life last year. He has a wife and kids, they don't want to leave Nottingham.
We need players who want to play for the club and he clearly does.
I get the impression that Chambers (like Ando) is waiting to see what happens post TO.
The only reason for him going to Ipswich is the wages on offer. Ipswich and Forest are clubs of similar stature, history and potential. Both will probably finish mid table and Chambers is probably thinking he will get regular games whoever he signs for.
I would like him to stay; I would like it even more if we signed another CB who kept him out of the starting line up. We need four CB to start next season. We currently have one definite (Lascelles) and two possibles (Chambo and Lynch). If any of these three sign for another club, it just makes it a little bit more difficult to put together a proper squad. And it is going to be very difficult as things stand.
Cant wait for tomorrows story about Chambers, its real cliff hanger stuff. Wonderful insightful journalism...

Former Nottingham Forest skipper Luke Chambers looks set to put pen to paper on a three-year deal at Portman Road over the weekend following protracted negotiations throughout the summer. However, the 26-year-old has openly discussed recent family issues that affected his form throughout the first half of last term.
Partner, Helen gave birth to Chambers’ new son in September and suffered from post-natal depression for over six months. It is perhaps unsurprising then that Chambers has taken so much time to make up his mind regarding Ipswich’s contract offer – the only concrete bid for his services.
Chambers said: “My son, Maxy, was born in September and my wife, Helen, suffered really badly with post-natal depression. People who have been through that will know exactly how difficult that can be.
“From September right through to February, I was coming home from training and from matches worrying about how my wife was. It really was a tough time. There are things away from football that can influence you; there is sometimes more to worry about than your job.”
Town boss Paul Jewell admitted yesterday that discussions regarding Chambers’ switch to Suffolk have been ongoing throughout the close season and the uncertainty regarding Nottingham Forest’s proposed takeover appears to have forced the defender’s hand into accepting the terms on offer at Portman Road.
“It’s been going on all summer really. I’ve met him on a number of occasions and have spoken to him quite a lot over the summer,” said Jewell.
“He’s a player we’ve been interested in for a while and we’re hopeful we can conclude a deal. I think everything’s agreed but until it’s signed, sealed and delivered you’re never 100%.
“But as sure as we can be without it actually being signed – and I spoke to Luke not 20 minutes ago – everything’s agreed.”
He's off to Derby. Surprised no one has heard it yet (you heard it here first). Not happy as a Derby Fan, but I guess you lot will be more peed off about this one after everything he said.
Ramadan - we heard this rumour some time ago so you're not the first.
"He's off to Derby. Surprised no one has heard it yet (you heard it here first). Not happy as a Derby Fan, but I guess you lot will be more peed off about this one after everything he said."
We don't give a hoot - he cost us a shed load of goals last season, so feel free to take him.
