Definately McClaren's worst buy!! Complete waste of money

Len, Worse than Derbyshire?

Or Miller ?

Cost us far more than Derbyshire and at least Miller will have a resale value. Greening's on massive wages and only a lunatic will sign a 32 winger type 'never has been' player!!

Whenever Greening has played he hasn't looked bad, but hasn't looked great either. He's a solid midfielder, and he will do well to get some games under his belt. I've not doubt he can still play well at this level, hope it goes well for him at Barnsley, and hope he gets a perm move in Jan!

Oh, and Matthew Derbyshire is the worst signing by any Forest manager, ever. Words fail me how poor he was for us

Bit dramatic considering we got him on a free so he was hardly a drain on resources!! Worst Forest signings ever - Silenzi, Padula, Eaden, Gary Holt, John Curtis, Rosario, Justin Fashanu.... there's a lot of names in there so dont think Derbyshire would be anywhere near the same page as some of those guys!!

Platt. Worst signing ever.

Platt plus his Italians, utter dog sh##!! Nearly ruined the cluib, in fact did ruin the club for many years after! Could be argued we never recovered as the Doughty era just went from bad to worse

Nice to see you florists rubbishing your own player. Maybe Hillcroft can perform their magic trick of realising the potential of out of favour players and then you will want him back.

Good pedigree. Never played below our level. Don't believe for a second we'll be paying even 30% if any of his wages (sorry Forest fans).

May react well to being the big fish in the small pond and maybe a fans favourite. Typical player Hillcroft signs and will get the best out of before leaving us for a better offer but maybe due to the players age he may stick around. Another good signing in my opinion.

I agree Corbo .. Like I said, a solid player who will do well in the Champ given the chance! I hope he does well for you.

Decent loan signing for us, hopefully might sign for us after the deal expires but I cant see us paying him a massive wage so that could be a stumbling block.

And for the Forest fans. The worst signing ever for Forest that I know of has to be Andre Silenzi

Silenzi was like Maradona compared to Derbyshire!

Oh and how you all laughed because you were buying an ex prem while we bought Bryson

Great signing for Barnsley. Along with Buszaky, who I think they're getting today.

Greening comes across as a great bloke on Twitter, and it's a shame it's not worked out for him here yet.

Still think he may have a role to play after Xmas.

best comment that I have seen about the Greening and his loan move so far has been from Hill himself on the Barnsley website:

“It’s a little bit like the wife - a handbrake.”

Classic Keefism

thank god he is gone out on loan now get him off the wage bill permently

posted on 22/11/12

Ha ha, you reckon Paddy? I'm pleased to confirm you're paying half his wages for us. So thanks for that

posted on 22/11/12

Better than all of his wages Royal. Ha ha

posted on 22/11/12

Half is wages? so an on loan player is your highest earner....good god

OTR - how much is Connor Sammon on?

Mug.

posted on 22/11/12

Not as much as greening put it that way, we're skint remember Mr Fickle

posted on 22/11/12

So how do you know how much Greening is on then OTR? And where is your knowledge of Sammon's wages from? I suspect you know nothing about this and can only speculate.

Cannigia: On The Blob knows more about our club than his own.
