In case some of you hadn’t realised, there’s a football match tomorrow..

It’s getting quite exciting now, isn’t it?  It certainly is for me, just one more day until our FA Cup game at Pride Park, a reunion with the lesser Clough, and a return to his old stomping ground for Billy.  It certainly is the stuff ordinarily soap operas would probably be made of, with demand [...]

Forest vs Plymouth Argyle highlights..

Thanks to the good folks at Virgin Media, you can watch the goals and a few other chances – including the ‘how didn’t that go in?‘ effort by Plymouth didn’t go in towards the end of the game.  Click here to watch. You can also see other Championship highlights, and play ‘count the Clough references’ [...]

Argyle victory puts the Reds over Derby..

Nottingham Forest – 2 Plymouth Argyle – 0 I don’t have masses of time, so this might be short but sweet – and sweet it certainly is to have picked up our third straight league win, lift ourselves to 18th in the league table and – game in hand not withstanding – elevate ourselves above [...]

Vote for Nathan Tyson!

Go on, do it!   Click this link to help him get player of the round for his performance against Manchester City in the FA Cup. He’s already winning by a healthy margin (or is as I type), but let’s use our cumulative powers to make sure he gets the award he richly deserves for [...]

Charlton vs Forest highlights..

The highlights are up on the Virgin Media website – pretty extensive ones this week, and a pretty fair reflection of the game (although second half highlights are understandably thin on the ground).  You can revel in the rubbishness of Deon Burton, be confused by Nathan Tyson’s “I’m going to bite the Forest tree” goal [...]

Tys and Earnie add to woeful Charlton’s troubles..

Charlton Athletic – 0 Nottingham Forest – 2 The dawning of the Billy Davies era was met with three points in a, how can I put this, ‘workmanlike’ performance from the mighty Reds (playing in black, of course) against a very low-on-confidence looking Charlton side who look good value for the relegation they seem to [...]

Half time at The Valley..

Two nil is marginally flattering, but who cares? Tyson bundled the first in, Earnie with another delicious chip. Charlton had caused early wobbles in defence, and our midfield was largely bypassed early doors with a series of hoofs.. But well, happy regardless! Forest fans in good voice and numbers, despite it being absolutely freezing! Not [...]

Game on!

After a surprisingly last minute panic that a team that has spent a chunk of time in the Premier League recently can’t handle a bit of cold, a referee has been to The Valley today and passed the pitch fit to play. This is good news for Reds eager to see the dawning of the [...]

Clough is Derby’s chosen one..

Sometimes the ‘what might have been‘ question is never answered, and sometimes it is.  Certainly the ballad of the Clough family and the endless (and, in this author’s opinion, fairly tiresome) tug-of-warring over the right to their legacy took a very interesting twist tonight as Nigel Clough is set to be unveiled as the replacement [...]

We drew who in the cup?

T’was inevitable really, wasn’t it?  As soon as Derby’s number came out I was wondering whether we’d be next – and sure enough, we were.  Given our starvation of games against our dearest neighbours, they are a mouth-watering enough prospect at the best of times – but well, given that we’ve had one humdinger of [...]
