    Right to worry over lack of Forest signings? | Read set to snub Reds?
    Aug 3 2026
    Matt Davies is joined by Dan Cook and Michael Temple as we discuss the latest Nottingham Forest transfer news or lack of it. Fan frustration online is growing that Forest have only signed Xaver Schlager so far. Is that fair or are people worrying over nothing?
