@AGCain77 : What a signing... just have this feeling it'll be like Collymore's first season in the PL and he'll excite the crowd every time he gets the ball. Welcome to Forest Taiwo!
@ForestFanBase : Welcome to Nottingham. Let’s make history.
@ArchieMillsSJ : Another statement of intent signing. Hopefully one that works out. But I have faith in Dane Murphy and Steve Cooper. Welcome, Taiwo.
@ThatBritNerd : 5 year deal too! No messing about we've got him tied down meaning we should be in a good place if a big fish comes calling
@Nath1taia : Great start to the weekend now announce Worrall as club captain.
@Jonny90nffc : This lad & Brennan are going to be a problem for Premier League Defences. Europa Conference were coming for you!
@MattRakowski : Very excited to see this guy join us. In the Premier League were going to need goals and clean sheets. Our 1st two signings represent absolute quality at both ends of the pitch. Awoniyi and Henderson. What a way to start our recruitment for the PL!
