Before the dust has even settled

It's the Bank Holiday Monday after the weekend before, and The Nottingham Evening Post decide to run a story saying Kris Commons has agreed terms with D***y on a three year deal.

Well, seeing as he only signed a 12 month contract to see where Forest got to at the end of the season, and bearing in mind that he would have every right to look elsewhere before the season ends, it's more than likely that a club like D***y would have made at least an enquiry and quite likely an offer.

Also bearing in mind Forest didn't know they were promoted until Saturday, precisely zero working days before this sensational story, isn't it also possible that they'll now be looking at offering new contracts to those they want to keep ?

But that wouldn't make a good headline story, grabbing the attention of happy reds all over Notts, stunned into buying the paper to read more.

The Nottingham Evening Post isn't there to benefit Nottingham Forest, and sometimes doesn't seem to be there to benefit Nottingham in general. It's ONLY reason to exist is to make money, pure and simple.

If you want to find out what's happening in Nottingham, watch the local BBC news.

If you want lazy journalists writing copy from their hang-over beds, read the Nottingham Evening Post.

To be fair, though, they do print some good letters.
