Nottingham Forest sent transfer message as 'jinx strikes again'

Nottingham Forest supporters have been reacting to the news that their new left wing-back Omar Richards is currently out with an injury.

Steve Cooper confirmed the injury after yesterday's 3-1 victory against Hertha Berlin, though said he will not be out for "months and months" - a good sign for the season ahead.

Forest supporters have been reacting to the injury and discussing what transfer activity may or may not be needed in his position. Below is a look at what some have been saying.

: Shows why we need a squad of top quality players. We won't get away with players filling gaps like we did in the championship.

: Time to wrap some of our key players in cotton wool, Mr Cooper...

: There were plenty moaning the other day saying we got too many wing backs , we have this position covered, Neco can play both sides and Toff was chucked straight in tonight because SC knew he would need to be up to speed sooner than originally thought plus we also looking at further signings in that position.

The Premier League is a tough playground never mind the odd training ground injuries, Jack won’t be required at LWB just yet.

Good win tonight, confidence building already and players starting to gel and getting fitter COYRS

: Laryea is not premier standard, I predict he’ll be loaned out.

: The left back jinx strikes again, jacky boy will playing there again soon enough

: We really have bad luck with LB position in recent years.
