McCleary the Wonderkid

By: Stuart | Comments 1 Comment

Following my club’s fustrating failure to make any big signings during the transfer window, I’m pleased to be able to say that we have managed to sign a young fellow who looks very promising for the future.
His name is Gareth McCleary, and he was bought for peanuts from Bromley, where he was held in high [...]

Forest v. Orient

By: Stuart | Comments 2 Comments

Nottingham Forest go into tomorrow’s massive game with Leyton Orient looking very weak up front. Nathan Tyson is still injured, while top-scorer Junior Agogo is away playing for Ghana in the African Cup of Nations.

Did Colin want the Cup?

By: Stuart | Comments No Comments

Rumours have been circulating on messageboards that Forest boss Colin Calderwood played a weakened team against Luton last night because he didn’t want the FA Cup to interfere with his promotion plans.
Wingers Kris Commons and Arron Davies were left on the bench for the game and Forest clearly lacked pace and width. Calvin Andrew scored [...]

Tyson kills off plucky Imps

By: Stuart | Comments No Comments

Last night I experienced football commentary for the first time, and oh how much fun it was! I’d been denied a press pass by Forest, but went along anyway to record my commentary from right at the top of the Sir Brian Clough Stand.
O.k, it wasn’t live, it was a recorded piece that I [...]

Forest v Crewe

By: Stuart | Comments No Comments

There’s not been much going on with Forest recently. We haven’t played for a couple of weeks so I’ve been using this time to try - and fail - to get lots of uni work done. However, since I lack enthusiasm for university life now that I’m so close to the end, I’ve [...]

A bad day on and off the pitch

By: Stuart | Comments 1 Comment

Today is a day I would quickly like to forget. Forest were held to a 1-1 draw away at Lincoln City in the FA Cup 1st round, and although the match report on the website says they played all right, I can assure you they didn’t.
Lincoln had been hyping up the game since the [...]

Not top, but second isn’t bad.

By: Stuart | Comments No Comments

A staggering crowd of 26,094 watched as Forest had to come from behind tonight to beat Southend, but did so with style. A goal in the third minute from Mark Gower gave the visitors the lead, the first goal Forest had conceded at home for exactly a month.
The Reds always looked dangerous despite the [...]

Top by tonight?

By: Stuart | Comments No Comments

Forest could end tonight top of League One on goal difference should they beat Southend at the City Ground, and Carlisle and Leyton Orient lose.
Nathan Tyson looks set to start having capped an impressive substitute performance with his first league goal of the campaign against Tranmere on Saturday. His successful return from injury has [...]

Jules’ Redemption!

By: Stuart | Comments 3 Comments

What a difference a few days can make. Sitting in the (Sir) Brian Clough Stand on Tuesday night I witnessed an utterly fustrating performance as Forest failed to overcome Oldham Athletic despite a bucket-load of chances.
The players tried to do too much, when they should have just stuck to the simple passing game that [...]

Luton v Forest Preview

By: Stuart | Comments No Comments

The Reds haven’t played Luton for thirteen years, so this will be an unfamiliar fixture for both sides. In that game it was our defenders that won the match, with Colin Cooper and Stuart Pearce scoring in a 2-0 win, and Colin Calderwood may have to rely heavily on his backline this afternoon.
Both Nathan [...]
