Forest increase McKenna bid

Mon 06 Jul, 10:49 AM


Nottingham Forest have returned with a third offer for Preston midfielder Paul McKenna.

Reds boss Billy Davies, who worked with the 31-year-old during his time in charge at Deepdale, revealed the bid was in the region of £750,000.

"Paul McKenna is a player I admire greatly and I believe he is the right age for this club because of his experience and what he has done," Davies told the Lancashire Evening Post.

"We have put in another improved offer to Preston, believed to be in the region of £750,000.

"Paul McKenna is a very fit man, a great professional and a great talker in the dressing room and on the pitch. He is an outstanding player and we will do all we can to bring him to Nottingham Forest because he is a player we need.

"Also, I think he probably needs a fresh move for his own career."

  1. after the way i was shouted down last season by the­ merchants of doom when i had the opinion that maybe we­ should give davies a chance, let him get a few players­ in and then make a decision after 10 games of the­ coming season as to davies ability to deliver the­ football that forest fans have craved since the clough­ era, i have been amused to note those same people still­ have,nt learned that we have no divine right get back­ to the premier league and it doe,snt matter past teams­ our manager has had, what matters is nottingham forest­ so less of the abuse and more of the support come on­ you reds!!!!!!!
