Nottingham’s Paper Lace got to number one with ‘Billy don’t be a hero‘, and it seems like barring some heroic last minute reprieve by the former Derby manager, he will be Smoulderwood’s replacement. He’s in talks, he’s spoken before of his desire for the Forest job due to his acrimonious split from our neighbours, and [...]

Norwich City – 2 Nottingham Forest – 3 Apologies for the delay in posting this, I returned to Nottingham this afternoon to a number of distractions! Thanks for your concerns, Vasillis, but worry not, everything’s fine! So, the drive to Norwich is always interesting – if you don’t go ‘cross country’ you end up in [...]

It was a nervy second half, but a relieving and deserved win. Pemberton’s army starts its march on a win, a win that marches us out the relegation zone! Well done lads! Definitely think that is Campy’s last game for us judging by his post-match reaction. A pity as he had another cracker. More later [...]

Yawn! I’m not a morning person, I’m just about to set off to the wilds of East Anglia on the trail of John Pembertons Red and White army. We will definitely be without Bennett, likely to be without Lynch and Wilson, and of course are without a manager and assistant manager – so it should [...]

Sod the pundits, let’s get a gauge of Forest fans opinions as the next manager of Nottingham Forest. Not who do you think we’ll get – who do you want. I’ve tried to include the candidates that have been doing the rounds, however there is an ‘Other’ option for those I’ve missed out, which will invite [...]

When the future needs predicting, football fans will look not much further than the bookmakers to provide them with a list of likely events. Of course, those of us who enjoy a trip to Ladbroke’s before a game will know that betting on the favourite in terms of odds isn’t a failsafe method in making [...]

It’s true. Check it out. Regrettably, it’s about bloody time Forest – it has become increasingly clear that he isn’t going to get us out of it. Smoulders has never really won the hearts or minds of Forest fans, so would always be afforded little leeway in times such as these. The new gaffer has [...]

Nottingham Forest – 2 Doncaster Rovers – 4 Those two lateish goals make this scoreline, whilst not respectable, appear not as bad as this game actually was. Without being disrespectful to our visitors, to be three-nil down – and deservedly so – at half time against the bottom of the league team is generally a [...]

Barring a second half miracle, we are set to lose in fairly emphatic fashion at home to Doncaster Rovers. Assuming that miracle doesn’t occur, then I can’t imagine what more Smoulderwood could serve up to justify him being relieved of his duties. That said, sad to see and hear “fans” spitting hateful comments at Lynch [...]

Okay, so I said I wouldn’t be online now ’til Christmas, but I just had to fire up the computer before I disappear for a few days to post a link to the goals from the Southampton game. The first goal – great delivery into the box, and if Big Wes hadn’t got his bonce [...]
