First of all, folks, an apology. I haven’t written anything about the mighty Reds in a long old time, in fairness I have a legitimate excuse as my PC has been out of action for a while with a virus. That and I’ve been on holiday. Anyway, better late than never, and despite all the [...]

After guiding the mighty Reds to survival this season, thanks to a right royal result on Monday night, Billy Davies has claimed that this is his ‘best high’ in management: “I’ve had many highs in the last few years but this high – without doubt – is the best to date. It’s an outstanding achievement, [...]

What a week for Forest fans, probably the most important week of the season so far, and I’m pleased to say that most of it went our way.
It all started before last Saturday’s match against Coventry when Davies asked the Forest faithful to make the City Ground ‘like a cauldron’. We did register our [...]

Considering the Blades were the form team in the Championship going in to yesterday’s game, having won their last five matches, and that we played with 10 men for seventy-five minutes, I think this was an impressive display by the Reds.
Breckin marshalled the backline very well after Wilson’s straight red card for head butting Greg [...]

At the start of the season you may remember me saying ‘us Forest fans could be in for a few high scoring games’, well, with the exception of a few tonkings, and the odd match here or there, its not really turned out that way for us. The Bristol match can join the ranks of [...]

It has been a strange old week for the Reds so far, and we’ve not even been involved in some of it. Firstly, Saturday’s match against Barnsley was given an almost derby-esque feel to it due to the furore over ticket pricing by the hosts (that saw the away fans being charged nineteen quid as [...]

Although last weekend’s result against Wolves did nothing to help us out, points-wise that is, we avoided embarrassment at the very least, considering the score line in this fixture at Molineux, and the result was softened by the fact that all of the teams around us could only manage draws, too.
Davies claimed that the match [...]

In my last post, following the Swansea game, I made the following two statements: ‘the acid test will be against Watford’ and ‘if we turn in performances like this every week, but take our chances instead, we should have no problem staying up’. That run of seven points from nine has a strange distant feel [...]

Just over a week ago, if someone had said to me “you’re going to get seven points out of nine against Reading, Preston and Swansea”, I probably would have wheeled out the catchphrase that Andy Millman loathed so much in Extras – “are you having a laugh?”. The fact that we probably should have got [...]

This was never going to be a game for purists. Reading had failed to score in their past three games, including going down 2-0 at home to Bristol City, and the less said about Forest’s recent run of form the better. When you’re in our position, though, who really cares about the purity of football? Make no mistake, this could be a vital three points – mostly because the teams around us, with the exception of Norwich, all had good results too…

I’ve always thought that referring to yourself in the third person is inherently funny, and possibly one of the many early warning signs of madness. Iron Mike Tyson constantly did just that while he was World Champ, and let’s face it, like the chocolate spread favoured by so many people on Pancake Day, he’s slightly nutty…
