It’s an almost-country style (almost – but not quite) dirge which is difficult to place in terms of era – it’s certainly not revealing in that it doesn’t mention any players or notable occasions. Perhaps there is a clue that it mentions ‘the old Trent End’ and ‘the new Main Stand’ – which would place [...]

This interview is dedicated to Aylesbury Red, who reminded me I’ve not done one for a while. My Derby-supporting acquaintance was surprisingly fast to respond to my hastily drafted email, and indeed, appeared to be expecting it even though the whole series of interviews had completely slipped my mind. So thanks to both for the [...]

Whilst I’m aware that yesterday’s results still make it likely we’ll finish in the playoffs, it’s still a good feeling to know we still have half a chance of the second place spot. The same can’t be said down Brian Clough Way, however, as today – as I’m sure you’re aware – the Sheep succumbed [...]

Three teams could get second, in three different games – Blackpool are the outsiders, currently two points off second – and they face a trip to Swansea next week. Forest are the almost-outsiders, with Crewe at home, and Bristol are pretty much the favourites with relegated Rotherham at home. Anthony from the LTLF forum has [...]

Leyton Orient – 1 Nottingham Forest – 3 I suppose it was inevitable really that Millwall would pull a result out the bag against Bristol City today, and consign us to having a glimmer of hope going into the final day. In a nutshell, if Rotherham can do the unthinkable and hold Bristol to a [...]

I’m a bit late previewing our trip down to Orient for a sell-out game in the dubious environs of East London – but I shall persevere nonetheless! Forest travel to the capital on the back of successive wins over Brentford and Bournemouth, and now face yet another side battling at the wrong end of the [...]

It wasn’t really much of a surprise to read on the Nottingham Evening Post website that Forest and Kris are putting their discussions on hold until our fate this season is decided. Removing any emotion from the scenario – basically, Kris wants more money than Forest will pay if we remain in League One, but [...]

It seems European football sparks a myriad of musical output – so perhaps we should be thankful that this trade has abated or we’d be flooded with nonsense records released by a bunch of scousers, prawn-sandwich eating cock-er-neys and, well, people from anywhere in the country other than Manchester! Today’s inclusion is called Magic in [...]

We’re back on the trail of cheesy music, and this one sounds like it’s loosely based on ‘Who wants to be a Millionnaire?’ to me, although I could be wrong – and features dubious voice-impersonator appearances from not only the predictable Brian Clough, but also Margaret Thatcher who, of course, would have been relatively new [...]

Well, not quite – but you can usually rely on some kind soul on the LTLF forum to provide worthwhile things to add to YouTube! Let’s see Krissy’s tremendous goals against AFC Bournemouth at the weekend – and of course, marvel at how David Prutton has the audacity to claim the third!
