Carlisle are the latest team to throw their hat in the ring in the battle to court Grant Holt; whilst on paper that would be a silly move for him – given that he’s already turned down Bristol City, and has stated his desire to stay at Forest and fight for his place, there’s likely [...]

Smoulderwood is almost certain not to risk Junior Agogo and Danny Cullip, both of whom pulled up with hamstring injuries in the weekend victory over Millwall. The seriousness of the injuries is as yet unclear, but frankly if there’s any small risk then it isn’t worth it. I imagine he may also decide to rest [...]

Colin Calderwood has picked up the football award in the East Midlands sporting awards – the smouldering one netted the gong for both his work in getting Northampton Town promoted, and of course the work he’s begun with a subject much dearer to our hearts; taking the mighty Nottingham Forest to a commanding position in League [...]

A few times Forest players have made the League One team of the week, which The Football League announce to recognise those who’ve made notable contributions to their sides fortunes in a particular week. And you would expect that, given that we top the table so clearly have in our ranks a number of players who [...]

The statue fund is edging ever closer to the target with a £1,400 boost from the latest eBay auction - thanks to buyers as far flung as Australia and the United States. This takes the fund to almost £54,000, ever closer to the target of raising £60,000 to create a lasting monument to the great man in Nottingham’s city [...]

The magic of the FA Cup compelled crazy Salisbury fans to queue up for tickets for their forthcoming game against Forest at 5am yesterday – over the course of the day they sold just under 1,200 tickets. The reason I consider them crazy for this early morning activity is because they still have more tickets [...]

I’m getting irritated by the things I continue to hear and read about Neil Harris; this post is partially inspired by Baz’s excellent match report on a different blog, and by Liverpool fans (urgh!) chanting about Traore some time ago… it goes to the tune of ‘Blame it on the Boogie’ by the Jackson Five.

Nottingham Forest – 3 Millwall FC – 1 Forest today registered their first win over Millwall at the City Ground for some 16 years – I hadn’t realised they were quite as much of a bogey team as they apparently are. They are one of very few teams, like Leicester, who I think the world [...]

In a week of mixed messages, Calderwood has finally broken the Forest silence on the whole Grant Holt issue. He’s basically said that he’s delighted he’s still here, and reiterated his lack of desperation to see any of our squad move on (presumably with the exception of Padula type players ). It’s interesting, because the [...]

The Daily Mirror is reporting today that Dean Windass is a £500k target for Forest in January; now whilst I obviously enjoy a dig at a player who’s been a thorn in our side over the years, he is a talented player without a doubt, and his nine goals so far this season are testiment [...]
