One man who is tired of the struggle between the Forest board and, it seems, everyone else, is former Forest striker Stan Collymore.

Collymore is of course a former Forest player, playing for the club from 1993 until 1995, and he has been commenting on the situation via his official Twitter account.

He also made it clear he has offered his services to the club in the past – but that he had received no response:

Forest fans are almost unanimously clear on the matter, wanting to see a change of ownership at the City Ground.
