Team of the week

Our exploits against the Geordies at the weekend has earned us three players in the Team of the Week. Cohen (who I thought was excellent), Gunter and this-Dex-is-on-fire Blackstock all make the cut into the official football league team.

After Newcastle United comes Barnsley: news roundup

Our victory over Newcastle United is the main talking point today as the Geordies come to terms with not being top of the pile and bemoan their club’s predicament. And maybe Kevin Nolan will learn to keep his mouth shut – apart from a chant of “you’ve never won fuck all” it’s not us that [...]

Nottingham Forest 1 – 0 Newcastle United: match report (but no podcast)

Sorry folks – the late kick off meant that we didn’t get chance to record a podcast after the game yesterday. So you’ll have to make do with a traditional match report. On the way to the ground, Radio Nottingham announced the line up as a 4-5-1: Campo in goal, Gunter and Cohen at full [...]

Returns: news roundup

Ryan Taylor returns for Newcastle, with Zurab Khizanishvili leading the line for them (I love Georgian names). Ned Kelly is still looking forward to meeting his old club, while Billy Davies is hoping for an early return for little Robbie Earnshaw. Also on his way back is James Perchio who has now returned to training [...]

The geordies are coming: news roundup

Little Robert Earnshaw will be out for a month with a calf injury sustained on international duty. We may have six strikers but I regard Robbie as one of the best (although he needs a sustained run in the team), so this is a bit of a blow, in my opinion. Ned Kelly reckons our [...]

The Daily Star have noticed that the football season has begun, running a season preview – and they have also just found out that we once won a few of trophies. The word is still that David Platt is favourite for the [...]

Fabio, Marlon and Billy Davies: news roundup (UPDATED)

Fabio Capello thinks Trevor Francis was the best Englishman to play in Italy. Trevor Francis thinks Fabio Capello is the new Brian Clough. Is Marlon Harewood misunderstood? Not by me – I think he’s great and one of my all-time favourite players. Finally, was Billy Davies due for the sack even as the Sheep were [...]

Raddy makes team of the week: news roundup

Following his stunning/lucky/wind-assisted/goalkeeper-assisted (delete as applicable) goal on Saturday, young Pole Raddy Majewski has been named in the Football League’s Team of the Week (alongside ex-Red Sammy Clingan, who scored another cracking free-kick at the weekend). In other news, Forest have been linked with Leeds left-back Alan Sheehan, currently enjoying a renaissance in form whilst [...]

Posh reactions: news roundup

Billy reckons our unsung players will make the difference – but it’s the glamour boys who made the headlines yesterday (and what a headline that is). BD praised our battling qualities, saying we couldn’t play a passing game against Peterborough, but it didn’t matter. Posh are scratching their heads at their start to the season, [...]

Nottingham Forest 2-0 Scunthorpe United: podcast

Standard Podcast: Play in Popup

I am once again joined by the Maradona of the Midlands for a discussion on the joys of three points, two goals and another clean sheet. I also give him the chance to atone for his post-Hillsborough Man of the Match controversy (my choice would have been Goldie even though he only played the second [...]
