Supposed longish term target David McGoldrick has joined Port Vale, despite competition from ourselves and Leeds United. So that quashes that particular piece of speculation that has been doing the rounds. The Nottingham Evening Post speculated that our move for him was what was prevent Scott Dobie being released to try his luck elsewhere, with [...]

I suppose it wasn’t surprising that we wouldn’t get to go to the Leicester replay for free – those of us present can take our ticket stubs down to the ticket office from tomorrow and get a ticket for £5 for the games (or £1 for concessions), I suppose £21 or £5 isn’t an outrageous [...]

Leicester’s owner, Milan Mandaric, went to the press having visited the player at Nottingham’s Queen Medical Centre, describing him as “improving and quite comfortable” and stating the obvious priority for him to recover as well and as [...]

I’ve kind of dispensed with regular match previews, because frankly I was falling into the habit of just trawling injury news, recent form and all that guff – and well, you can get that information elsewhere so there’s little point in me repeating it verbatim.

I was quite surprised to read the rather draconian measures being imposed on Leeds United supporters heading to Nottingham on Saturday. Certainly, I’m aware of an element of Leeds support, much like most large fanbases, have a reputation for causing mayhem – but even so, as well as the early kickoff (which to me just [...]
