No great loss.

He's losing pace, a shampooebag and canny finish worth a monkey's.

Just shows you how it can go.

Wont be missed

Edit - To add I'll always remember him for the goal against Karagandy. :thumbsup: A truly special Celtic park memory even against rubbish opposition.

Hope we get some cash for him at the end of the season. Delighted he wants to waste the rest of his career elsewhere.
Is he not out of contract? Maybe get a development fee?
I think his current deal runs until December 2016?

Fit and on form he is a fantastic threat who genuinely tormented defences. The problem is we haven't seen enough of these performances. There's various reasons for this but ultimately his potential remains unfulfilled. It's a shame he seems to be going but my response - like too many of his performances - is fairly indifferent.

We won't be due eff all will we? No development fees or anything? Whoever oversees the contracts at Celtic wants a toe in the plums. We could've got about £1m-£2m in the summer. (If a club actually wanted him.)

I won't slate him too much, as I have done enough over the last few seasons. But it's a real pity that I, like many others, are glad that he's off. So much promise at first, before injuries, pretty much no confidence and his wee heart have left him where he is.

He'll probably go and get a decent-ish wedge and few seasons in the English Championship, a la Chris Burke, Ross Wallace, etc. A real shame.

Goodnight, our wee Angel Of The North / Christ The Redeemer.

Infinitely better than GMS when on song,
Quite honestly, Forrest isn't infinitely better than anyone and never has been.



disagree. There's a really good player in there, but injury and perhaps a weak mentality have prevented him from progressing. We only saw him at his best in flashes.
Forrest will never be a really good player. Mainly because he's not only lacking in bottle, belief and fitness. He's not got much skill or final ball either.

He's not a patch on a Aiden or a Malone for vision or skill. He's got a bit of speed which is also regressing.

Likely a championship player then to Aberdeen or Dundee United on a few years.

Will do better at a side who aren't faced with a packed defence every week. A bit.

He'll prove to be a handy player for a decent championship side.

I've been one of his biggest defenders on here but the writing's been on the wall for a few months. The Roberts deal, plus the fact GMS and Armstrong are currently keeping him out the side, means it's time for him to seek a fresh start. I hope he can have a decent career down south like Maloney.

Ach, sad news.

He's a really competitive and talented guy, who came through our youth system and played well for us in the Champions League. Sadly bust up by injuries, and we've got no use for a fast winger who isn't fast anymore. I'll miss him.

Destined to become another player through our academy who will never fulfil his potential.

Injuries have played a huge part in that, of course, but that's not the whole story.

Suspect he'll end up back in the SPL in a few years.
