Bye bye Perchio

So James Perch has moved to Newcastle. On the face of it, everyone is a winner; Perchio gets to step up to the Premier League, Chris Hughton and Colin Calderwood sign a player that they rate, and Forest get a transfer fee for a player who would not otherwise get in the team. I don’t [...]

The third best team in the league!

You know something? Finishing in third place behind teams who got 102 and 91 points respectively ain’t bad! In fact, in some years, our total of 79 points would be enough to get automatic promotion, so considering where we were a year ago and the spending power of the two teams above us, I would [...]

Blackpool away: weekend preview

After a fairly lacklustre display in the first half against Ipswich, it was good to see some goals flying in (regardless of how). And this weekend sees us visit the UK’s premier holiday destination – Blackpool. After their severe 4-1 beating by Newcastle, they may go into the match with their heads down. However, it [...]

Newcastle United 2 – 0 Nottingham Forest: so what does that mean?

As I posted on our Facebook page, I think that the best team won. But it was close. There were indications that Newcastle were a little nervous before the match, and that we put on one of the best shows by an away team at St James’ Park. But does that matter when they got [...]

Newcastle United v Nottingham Forest: match preview

Forest may be able to field emergency left-back James Perch against Newcastle United, with almost-forgotten man Joel Lynch in contention for a place on the bench. In the meantime, Newcastle hope to call upon Jose Enrique, Peter Lovenkrands, Alan Smith and Mike Williamson. Off the pitch, Colin Calderwood speaks warmly about Billy Davies’ achievements with [...]

Newcastle, West Brom, Cardiff and Leicester: weekend preview

The game against Palace may have been poor but three points is three points. Next up sees the leader’s Newcastle and we need to be in top form – especially given our recent away collapses – we can’t rely on young Wesley to launch another 25 yarder. Should be an interesting one for Perchio as [...]

Is Joe Garner leave us? Plus Perchio, Matty and Moses: news roundup

With the news confirmed that Matt Thornhill has left for an initial month’s loan (possibly to be extended) at Cheltenham Town, Vital Forest report that combative-and-mardy-but-kind-of-likeable forgotten man Joe Garner could also be leaving the City Ground on loan, to either Carlisle or Millwall. In the meantime, Colin Neil Warnock has said that Forest have not [...]

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 [...]
