Automatic promotion is slip-sliding away..

Crewe Alexandra – 0 Nottingham Forest – 0 Even Jeff Stelling was shrewd enough on Sky to note that a goalless draw at struggling Crewe was not good enough for Nottingham Forest.  He’s quite right – let’s not mention that it was a Crewe side heavily impacted by injury too.  Frankly, I’m pleased I had [...]

And the winner is…

A big thanks to those of you who sent captions in for my debut competition to win tickets to The Approach to see ‘An Evening with Larry Lloyd and John Robertson.’  It was a close call, but after going through ‘em I’m pleased to report that Chris came up with the caption on the picture enclosed, [...]

Forest sign Brett Ormerod!

Here’s a shocker, and a pleasant one – we’ve signed Brett Ormerod on loan for the remainder of the season from Preston North End.  He’s been handed the number 18 shirt, and looks likely to be involved immediately against Crewe Alexandra tomorrow.

Calamity on Sky costs Forest dear..

Nottingham Forest – 0 Carlisle United – 1 As sure as eggs is eggs, when Forest play infront of Sky Sports’ cameras, you can be sure that some sort of calamity will ensue – and tonight proved to be no exception.  It was a game that will leave a sour taste for many Forest fans, to [...]

Second place up for grabs tomorrow…

Yesterday Doncaster beat Tranmere 1-0, leapfrogging both ourselves and Carlisle United into second place – even Walsall picked up three points against Luton too, putting them just a point behind us having played a couple of games more than us.  Tranmere, who lost of course, finish off the playoff zone, and just outside Southend limped [...]
