Wolves 5 Forest 1

By: Tim | Comments No Comments

After last Saturday’s defeat of Watford, and a creditable performance against Sunderland midweek, I’ve been left not only with a sore head (and one less bottle of duty-free rum), but wondering what went wrong at Molineux yesterday too. Did we simply come up against an in-form Wolves side who had key players returning from injury? [...]

Everything’s gone green

By: Tim | Comments 1 Comment

In tribute to Brian Clough, both Forest and Sunderland supporters were urged to wear the colour green to last night’s second round Carling Cup tie at the City Ground. What I’d like to know is quite simple, why?
Don’t get me wrong, I’m all for remembering what the great man did with Forest, back then [...]

Forest 3 Watford 2 … like two Olympic boxers

By: Tim | Comments No Comments

With more end to end action than your average porno flick, this game was a cracker for neutrals. Pity I’m not a neutral, then, but I had a good feeling before Saturday’s match with Watford. I’m not really sure why, especially considering the unbeaten visitors had claimed four out of six points compared to our [...]

The line-up? An attack minded 4-1-3-2, where Lionel Messi, Diego and Cristiano Ronaldo combine neatly with Wazza and Sergio Agűero up front (note – [...]

Earnie and Cohen keep Morecambe at bay

By: Tim | Comments No Comments

Morecambe may have provided an upset in the League Cup this time a year ago, but last night’s game at the City Ground felt more like a training exercise than a rigorous workout for the Reds. Still, Earnie finally got off the mark with a brace, linking up well with Cohen for both goals. Hopefully [...]

Ain’t so bad, ain’t so bad

By: Tim | Comments No Comments

After all my talk of ‘us Forest fans being in for a few high scoring games’, who’d have thunked it? The opening game of the season starts with a 0-0 draw. Egg on my face.
It could so easily have been different, though, had Smudge not produced a brilliant reflex save from Kevin Doyle’s header [...]

The Verdict

By: Tim | Comments 2 Comments

Did anyone catch the Championship preview in the Observer’s sport section yesterday? ‘The Verdict’ was essentially a forum for Championship fans to give their predictions for next season, the players to watch, who’s going up, who’ll go down etc etc. It made for interesting reading.
Of the twenty-three opposition fans only two predicted that Forest [...]
