It keeps slipping my mind, but I suppose it’s remiss of me not to mention it at all. A week tomorrow Leicester City will visit the City Ground to contest the 2nd round of the Carling Cup following us limping past Chester in the first round on penalties. After a muted response around the Forest [...]

It seems Swansea goalkeeper Dorus De Vries has been attempting to cause a bit of a stir with his post-match comments on Saturday. I don’t think anyone who was at the game nor listened would deny that Swansea certainly could feel rightly aggrieved at not getting a winner – and Forest seemed to play in [...]

Swansea City – 0 Nottingham Forest – 0 Finally the travelling Forest fans got to see free-flowing, attacking and decisive football – unfortunately it was the Swans who provided it – whilst it could be argued a third consecutive goalless draw is a bad thing, but considering the performance of our hosts to suggest that [...]

Chester City – 0 Nottingham Forest - 0 (AET) Forest win 4-2 on penalties Robin Chipperfield called it at half time really, with the words in the title. Another disappointing performance from the Reds. The first half was, by all accounts, best forgotten. The second not much better – Agogo and Thornhill were introduced as substitutes and this [...]

Whether or not there’s malicious intent from the Cherries player, it is undeniably dangerous play. Fortunately early indications suggest that Perch hasn’t sustained any overly serious injury as a result of [...]

Nottingham Forest – 0 AFC Bournemouth – 0 It’s amazing how quickly that wonderful feeling of preseason optimism can dissipate once the game kicks off, or perhaps it shouldn’t be. For me the first game of the season – particularly when at home – is an opportunity for the manager and players to ‘state their [...]

I’m belligerently determined to finish this series of mostly godawful music that Nottingham Forest have inspired through the years – and this latest one, the first I’ve posted since May, is inspired by perhaps the most inspirational figure we’ve known as fans since a certain green-sweatshirted manager. Ladies and gentlemen, I refer of course to [...]

I read the LTLF forum periodically, and found this thread – and I like the idea. We are all well aware of our striking problems thanks to a few ill-timed injuries. We are also very aware of our our shortcomings as supporters – we can be impatient, and very quick to dismiss the abilities of [...]

… do ya, do ya, do ya, do ya, do ya, do ya? Think you can fire the goals for Forest? Hmm, perhaps this proves the Kaiser Chiefs are more able lyricists than I am (it was supposed to be an alternative to the lyrics of ‘Ruby,’ you see!). But anyway, with many of us [...]
