Comments on: Is Grant really going to Bristol? http://nffcblog.com/2006/11/20/is-grant-really-going-to-bristol/ The mindless ramblings of a Forest fan half imbued with a probably misguided sense of optimism..

So I suppose I’m just as bad for posting this in response to the press, but yes, if he’s turned ‘em down then I’m very pleased as I think Grants a good option to have around!

Hopefully this will show Calderwood that he is determined to fight for his place and all talk of selling him is now at an end – I doubt it though.

I can’t see any point in selling him, we have no other striker at the club who can play the way he does. Its good to have him around and as long as he’s prepared to fight for his place, what’s the point of selling him, and to Bristol City of all clubs?!

I know we’re six points clear, but surely it’s too early to try and help our rivals and make the league more of a challenge? :-s

“Bristol City are making all the running, Grant Holt still says he is happy at Forest and is only interested in a move back to the bleak north west.
Unless in the words of the Godfather, He is made an offer he cannot refuse. Forest have a couple of definate targets, one who will be a suprise if he signs.
No names were mentioned but as some one else has said the City Ground is a tight lipped place, where pulling together is encouraged. If he leaves he will not be on his own during the transfer window. But you do not need to be Sherlock Holmes to be able to deduce this information.”
This squares other things I’ve heard – that Grant wants to stay, so I suppose until Forest confirm they’re accepted a bid or otherwise, then we’re kind of in the dark.

It’s puzzled me why he has been chosen over Holt but it appears that Smoulderwood doesn’t seem to rate Holt. Disappointing as he’s scored more goals this season than Harris has ever scored for us.
