Fat Joe Kinnear joins Newcastle United (updated twice)

Joke Innear is now in charge at the North East Comedy Club. And I have to say, I think he’ll do well. Mainly because he is only supposed to be there for a few weeks. You see, when he came to Forest, he was a revelation. A lot of people forget how poor the football [...]

Message to Alan Pardew: think before you speak

So the Charlton boss has to mouth off after the match; whereas CC mentioned that both sides would have felt unhappy, Pardew seems to have gone on a crusade and obviously feels that the only reason Charlton didn’t win was because the dice were loaded against his team by the man in black. Listen to [...]

Nottingham Forest 0-0 Charlton Athletic

Difficult to know where to start with this one: the wonderful save by Paul Smith that ultimately saved us a point? How about the missed chance where three Forest players slid in to try and meet Matt Thornhill’s cross-cum-shot? Or maybe the poor refereeing disply that left both managers and sets of fans unhappy? Maybe [...]

Nottingham Forest vs Charlton Athletic: Match Report and Podcast

Standard Podcast: Play in Popup

Another dodgy referee, poor defending and good attacking play – but it all ends nil-nil. Smith Chambers Morgan Wilson (c) Bennett Moussi Cohen Perchio Tyson Earnshaw Martin

In praise of Derby

I bet you didn’t expect to see that title on this site, did you? But I am seriously writing in praise of our woolly friends, as they are standing up to QPR over their (frankly ridiculous) ticket pricing policy. QPR and their multibillionaire owners have already increased season ticket prices, and defend the increase of [...]

Preston North End 2-1 Nottingham Forest

Another defeat, another match where we concede sloppy goals and are not quite clinical enough at the other end. I did not see/hear/listen to any of the match, save for the BBC Live Text commentary in the last ten minutes, so I don’t feel qualified to comment on any aspect of what actually happened out [...]

Nottingham Forest 1-2 Burnley

If you have listened to our podcast, you will already know what we thought about the referee, and you will appreciate that we both felt that Mr Penton had a significant part to play in Forest’s downfall on Saturday. It is little consolation that both Burnley goals were against the run of play, and although [...]

Nottingham Forest vs Burnley, Match Report and Podcast

Standard Podcast: Play in Popup

A rant about the referee – where we even manage to avoid swearing (which was quite an achievement). Smith, Chambers, Morgan, Wilson, Heath The Moose, Perchio, Cohen Martin, Earnshaw, Tyson

Debate

In view of the lack of other Forest-related stuff at the moment (save for John Toshack’s embarrassing decision to try and play Robbie Earnshaw as a lone striker against Azerbaijan), I found this thread quite interesting: who do you think has been the best Forest manager since Sir Brian retired? I personally feel that this [...]

Nottingham Evening Post: shoddy

I am sure that the satndard of wroting on this site is not infallible, but then Rahoul and I never made any claim to be professional writers or broadcasters. However, if you are on the payroll of the Nottingham Evening Post, you are (presumably) supposed to be a professional journalist. Therefore, if the paymasters at [...]
