Home, sweet home: news roundup

The talk from the City Ground is all about our home form. Lewis McGugan talks about his early return from injury – and how we now have the confidence to build an unbeaten home run, to match our away record. Chris Gunter (who makes the Football League Team of the Week, thanks Saturday’s clean sheet [...]

Forest v County: the real local derby?

I was recently contacted by Joris from the Dutch football site Doing the 116. He wanted to know a little bit about the rivalry between us and our stripey neighbours from across the river. He was obviously aware that the real rivalry for most Reds lies with the woolly ones, but was fascinated by the [...]

Plymouth Argyle 0-1 Nottingham Forest: The Man Utd of the Championship

I cannot pretend that I was there, but it was refreshing to see Forest win, in spite of the curse of Sky (have we cracked that one now?). Forest lined up in a 4-4-2, with league returns for Casual Kelv, Madge, and Big Dele (but little Robbie Earnshaw was out with a pelvic injury, adding [...]

Nottingham Forest 0 – 1 Blackpool: match report and podcast

Standard Podcast: Play in Popup

Hard to beat. That’s us. Apart from on today’s showing. Earnie got his wish and made the starting line-up – with recalls for Tyson and the Moose. So Billy selected: Campo, Gunter, Morgan, Chambers, Lynch, McKenna (c), Moussi, Cohen, McGoldrick, Tyson, Earnshaw To be honest, it didn’t really work. Although we did make chance after [...]

Robots and wingers: news roundup

Roy Keane is impressed with us and thinks we’re a decent team. The “outrageous goal celebration” debate rolls on. Personally, I feel Adebayor has a better defence than Tys, with regards to the celebration – his provocation was during the game itself. Unfortunately, that will be ignored because of the stamp. And because a lot [...]

Ipswich away: news roundup

I couldn’t face listening to the game on the (much-improved) Forest Player, so here’s a quick roundup of reaction to last night’s draw – a game played without Nathan Tyson or Radoslaw Majewski. The best place to find out about the Ipswich match is the ever-excellent Through the Seasons Before Us – who also kept [...]

Paul Hart, Brian Laws, Roy Keane and Danny Shittu: news roundup

Pompey may be a bit of a mess and most people’s favourites for relegation but Paul Hart is vowing to fight on, despite rumours of his impending exit (like most of his first team squad). Brian Laws isn’t happy after Sport Billy claimed Wednesday were playing a long ball game. I think winding up and [...]

Sheffield Wednesday 1-1 Nottingham Forest: match report and podcast

Standard Podcast: Play in Popup

Forest did well to come away with a point after a bit of a niggly, physical, hoofball performance (but it was an entertaining match). Billy sprung a couple of surprises by leaving out Tys and Madge (paternity leave and injury respectively), but including Lynch, Lewis and the Mooooosssse in the squad; the team was: Campo [...]

The 100% horizontally, vertically and diagonally honest news roundup

Nottingham County Council doesn’t like the City Council’s choice of location for the World Cup stadium. Russell Slade is pleased to have wingers now that Arron Davies has joined him on loan. David McGoldrick wants to play in the Championship – good job he came to us eh? Our fixture against Scunthorpe has been put [...]

Madge makes team of the week

Moving away from the flag-waving shenanigans, Radoslaw Majewski makes the official Championship team of the week (PDF) – albeit playing on the left wing. Deserved after an excellent display on Saturday. The Damned United [DVD] [2009]
