Nottingham Forest fans pile in as fresh Newcastle transfer claims emerge

Nottingham Forest supporters have made their feelings clear amid reports linking Jamaal Lascelles with a return to the City Ground.

There is talk that Forest are interested in the defender, who could be set to leave Newcastle if they sign a top centre-half during the summer transfer window as planned.

Despite his insistence that he wants to stay in the north east, a transfer could be taken out of his hands. Some Forest fans have made clear that they would not be so keen to see him back in the East Midlands after seven years away. Below is a look at what some supporters have been saying on social media.

: We've got better players in that position already, we need to be savvy with the money we spend so hopefully he won't be coming back

: No thanks. Let’s not keep taking trips down Memory Lane. Nostalgia ain’t gonna help us stay up…

: Figs was better so why would we want him?

: Who would he replace out of our current back 3? A few years ago I watched him get destroyed by Rodriguez when Burnley beat us 2-0... both goals were on him

: No thanks. Had his time with us and there is a lot better out there

: Part of the reason they were in bottom 3 no reason to deviate from the plan, he doesn’t fit the plan
