Sunderland claim win in disjointed friendly..

Nottingham Forest – 0 Sunderland – 1 Neither optimism nor despair were offered in this fairly pedestrian friendly; for me personally the law of Sod dictated that I chose the less exciting of the two friendlies at the City Ground this season to attend.  And so it proved; a very low-paced first half was followed [...]

It’s good to be back..

I hadn’t been too fussed with the preseason games, but must confess that reports from the Everton friendly as well as a mate forcing the issue by getting me a ticket has severely whetted my appetite to be back at the City Ground on this fine evening. Sitting on the bank of the Trent, it’s [...]

As good as a new signing?

An announcement from Forest pleased me enormously today; goalkeeper Paul Smith has signed a new two year deal which I dearly hope signals his desire to stick around and be part of Forest’s future – which will be brighter with him between the sticks. Along with the defence, he can take enormous credit for a [...]

Commons: “I never wanted to leave Forest.”

He pleas in the Evening Post.  What a crock.  You had many offers did you?  That means you could have taken one of them and gone with goodwill from us, you didn’t, you went there.  In your time as a Forest supporter impersonator, you knew what the consequences of that move were.  It’s no good [...]

Thoughts on the Everton friendly..

As I mentioned yesterday, I was unable to make it down to the Everton preseason friendly in person – however picked up an email this morning from a friend who did venture down to Trentside to take in the game.  His comments seem to tally with those I’ve read around the forums and other match [...]

Forest finally secure striker signing..

It’s taken a while, but Forest have finally prized young striker Joe Garner away from Carlisle United; after the disclosure from the Cumbrians that there was a release clause in his contract, it’s unsurprising that things have progressed – with Forest keen to secure the services of the player before facing significant competition for his [...]

What to do with an old Commons Forest shirt?

A few days ago Sean emailed with this great suggestion; I don’t tend to buy Replica Kits so the idea had never occurred to me.  However, spending a good number of hours amongst Forest fans over the last few seasons I’ve noticed a fair few fans sporting a kit with the name of Kris Commons [...]

Carlisle name their price for Garner..

An interesting move from Carlisle United has seen them disclose publicly that there is a clause in Joe Garner’s contract that means they would be compelled to accept a bid of £1.14million for the young striker.  This would mean £500k (half the ‘profit’ Carlisle would make on the player) would be payable to Blackburn, £57.5k [...]

Pre-season trip ends with a solid win!

As we know, Forest (with a couple of trialists, former Arsenal and most recently Coventry City midfielder Stephen Hughes – who played the first half, and former Dundee United and capped Polish goalkeeper Grzegorz Szamotulski – who didn’t play tonight) have been training in Germany for the last week or so as part of their [...]

You’re never Garner believe it..

.. sorry.  I have already got my coat, and will be calling a taxi imminently to beat a hasty retreat for my dreadful punning.  But anyway, I digress slightly. Reports from news agencies as well as the rumour-mills suggest that our bid for Carlisle youngster Joe Garner isn’t as dead in the water as once [...]
