Through the seasons before us..

Forest have today announced that despite the doom-like prophecies surrounding his injury, Will Hoskins had made excellent progress in recovering from his back problem.  Rumours have been going around about the place that he was heading back to Watford, that we’d not see him again in a Forest shirt, and that he was somehow involved in last night’s Earthquake.

It transpires none of these rumours are true, and after period of recuperation the striker is set to return to training this week, and will hopefully feature in first team contention soon after Monday’s game at the City Ground against Carlisle - a game that Smoulds claims will probably come too soon for the recovering striker.

This is excellent news indeed - of course, a few days out of training will have done little for his fitness, which in terms of match-sharpness looked a little off prior to the injury, but with Tyson’s injury having Will available for selection sooner rather than later will be a huge boost given the kind of games we have coming up against fellow promotion-chasers.
