Regarding goal keepers I still have flashbacks and wake up in a cold sweat whenever anyone mentions the name Eric Hulme.

Thankfully it was what seems like hundreds of years ago, so the actual odds of someone else being able to remember him is quite slim .

Muric was worst keeper I can remember.
He was fined for arriving late to training during pre-season, a less than ideal start, so when a flight back to England was cancelled in August and he was late a second time he garnered little sympathy. On a third occasion, he had muted the club’s busy WhatsApp chat due to a late-night bombardment of messages, often in French, only to miss a memo in the group advising that training the next day had been brought forward at short notice.
:ROFLMAO:

Alas-I saw him keep goal at White Hart Lane in a 6-1 defeat in 1971.

Forest have been blessed with a good number of decent keepers over the years.
First one I saw in the flesh was Peter Grummitt.
But my Dad saw Chick Thompson... said he was real class.
Even Paul smith was half decent... even if a bit of a nervous character.

Lad had a picture with muric before his debut. Put it on our WhatsApp group - son with next Man City keeper.
Aged well! 😂
Your lad might have been the better shout in goal.
Muric couldn't catch a cold lmao.

Looking forward to the "play for a big club" chants this season.

I remember Eric came from Spennymoor. He was Jim Barron’s back up.
Not fond memories.
How about our first loan keeper Brian Sherratt who had a nightmare when we were playing at Meadow Lane after the fire?
Or poor old Mick Harby?

He's at the stage where he doesn't have to prove anything to anybody so I think it will be solely down to the money and a last massive retirement payment. Saudi it is

I'd have thought so. Interesting with Navas - he strikes me as someone who wants to compete for as long as possible - remember reading about him favouribly a late career move to Mexico for reasons along those lines. Whether Saudi offers him the level of competition, or if that is offset by the level of cash he'd get, remains to be seen...
I got a feeling we are one of those teams from England

Yeah it's between if he is money driven now he is coming to the end of his career or wants to keep pushing himself, if it is us that's after him maybe he enjoyed Nottingham and would want to come back instead of moving to somewhere that he doesn't know

I wouldn't blame him if he didn't want to be a coconut shy at this stage of his career and wanted to relax in the sun in Saudi.

Same to be honest if he wants to make some money at the end of his incredible career I wouldn't blame him, I'm just glad we got to see him play for Forest

Oh he's definitely earned the right to do what he wants - it was great having him. With the Saudi 'window' - which I doubt they'd even enforce for the right player - closing late and our PSG meets I do wonder if there's a gentleman's agreement in place? Probably wishful thinking...

The ideal scenario would be Navas on 6-month loan, then decide on Henderson in January (based on fitness and United's fee demands).

I wonder - I think it comes down to whether we can get the deal over the line with United and also land our B keeper.

It's nice to even have the illusion of this in negotiations with United while Navas hadn't gone anywhere.

We need a back up keeper of quality in either case, bearing in mind the injury suffered by Navas at the end of last season, and he isn't getting any younger.
