It´s a pity Billy couldn´t do the same with OUR garbage..Arthur and Pleat !!!!
Well done today!! 1 1 BUT a good positive performance !!! All the other teams are under pressure too !! Come on you REDS !!!!!!!!!

Commenting on the games left and whether or not there’s enough time left this season for them to stay up? Just found it a little ironic given our position currently, and wondering what the chuff he does as Forest given how ‘insightful’ he is!

If they are relegated regardless, the points would come off next season.

As for which company is heading for administration and whether or not this will lead to a points deduction, I have no idea!

Would have been nice to get them out of the way as we have them on the last match of the season. Hopefully we might be safe by then anyway- maybe that is a touch optimistic :-)

Did anyone else go to the England U21v France game last night?
We were played off the pitch by a very technical, skilfull and energetic French side.
At times we struggled to get the ball, and when we did get it often we were unsure what to do with it. The 2 central midfielders (Huddlestone and Mancienne) were appalling for the first hour. Noble also played centre-mid and was one of maybe 3 decent players for us.
Someone commented afterwards it was like watching Forest at home all over again!

I would guess most of the crowd were there for sentimental reasons, welcoming Psycho back. Sad then that he quietly strolled out to the dugout, barely noticed by the crowd, and wasn’t introduced by the tannoy man.
Surely that wouldn’t have gone amiss, “NFFC would like to welcome back to the City Ground….”??

It’s such a shame for them that their pathetic club were not ready to embrace the brilliance of Clough – thankfully, we were ;)

U REDS!!!!
