'Isn’t fair' - Brice Samba sent Nottingham Forest message amid contract row

Nottingham Forest supporters have been making their feelings clear after Brice Samba broke his silence on Sunday about his current contract conflict with the club.

The Reds goalkeeper has taken to social media and appeared to agree with a journalist claiming reports that a contract offering to double his current wages at the City Ground are 'not true'. Talks over a new deal are understood to have stalled, with Samba said to be keen on a return to France this summer.

Forest fans are split over how they see Samba now as this saga takes its latest twist. Here is a selection of the social media reaction after the 'keeper took to Twitter.

Gazred: Shame to see him go but no player is bigger than our club.

Sam Evans: Don’t see anything wrong with this personally. If he feels he’s been mistreated he has a right to say it. He’s been a good servant to the club and deserves what he’s owed.

Chris Snow: Brice Samba, love you bro. Please don't go.

Stuart Smith: We still love him and wish him well.

Jamie: Brice this isn’t fair on the fans who have always backed you.. we will truly miss you and I wish you all the best!

SJGZ-D: Brice Samba, you’ve been a great servant of the club and will go down as one of our own…But please just leave if you are going to and don’t let this tarnish your reputation like it did with Collymore and Pierre van Hooijdonk. Good luck and all the very best.

David: Anyone else really confused about the Samba situation?

Jon Salt: Brice Samba, I'm sorry for the way things appear to be turning out. I speak for all Forest fans when I say thank you. You made our dreams come true. We'll never forget that semi final performance. You'll always be a legend at our club.
