For those of you who don’t know (probably our readers outside Nottingham) BallsMania is a weekly free magazine distributed throughout Nottinghamshire that focuses on local sport. It is most commonly found in pubs around Nottingham and Mansfield but its circulation is growing all the time.

Starting this week and for the rest of the season LTLF will be contributing a weekly page on the Reds to BallsMania with reports on the latest games, opinion articles from our writers and classic LTLF comedy pieces and features.

This week’s issue contains a report on the Cardiff match from Alex Campbell and the return of popular fanzine feature, ‘Forest Grudge Match’ by Alan Fisher.
