forgotten man Joe Garner could also be leaving the City Ground on loan, to either Carlisle or
Millwall. In the meantime, Colin Neil Warnock has said that Forest have not bid [.
Jeff Carlisle has written a very good article on ESPN's Soccernet about how the Houston Dynamo are
going to replace Ricardo Clark and Stuart Holden.
From King Eric to Carlisle's emergency loan signing, here are some mid- and late-season deals that
