Twitter rumours linking him with a move to Nottingham Forest.


"Falls to Arnold... Arnold! That's it! Thats it! He's sealed it! Grimsby Town are back in the football league!!! Just a minute to go and Nathan Arnold makes it 3-1! Look at the scenes behind the goal! Look at the relief! The agony is finally over!!!"

Apparently Nottingham Forest want him for their U23's.  We raise a lot of money for our youth set up only for the likes of Curran and Burrell being poached. I do wander if we make any money out of it.


If the football is bad you can always watch the gulls.

Was definitely offered a deal, but I don't know if it was confirmed that he's actually signed it?

Think he signed a two year deal with an option on a third. Was retweeted by his dad on twitter.

He's a pro with us. We made 100k for Burrell which good business for someone unproven but with this latest revelation I'm wondering if we could have a great nucleus of young talent ready to come through only for sections of it to be cherry-picked away by the big boys.

But unfortunately we a selling club, after all gotta find couple hundred K to pay back Fenty's loans each Season now...

Absolutely not. It could rise to 100k eventually. I imagine it’ll about 10% of that.

I’ve got no idea how good this lad is but it’s a real shame for the club that these young players with talent can just be poached after they’ve been given the time to develop by the youth set up . There’s little chance for clubs like Gtfc in the lower divisions to develop and sell talent for their real worth , benefiting not only the club in terms of ££ for the first team but also investment back into the youth development for further years of young talent. Makes you fooking sick tbh .

Is it me or could the club reject a bid if it not right for the club. If indeed he signed a pro contract for 2 years we can be a bit more subborn and do we also get a fee regardless whether he is under 23
