Our visitors this evening are Middlesbrough, probably the strongest thread that runs between the two clubs is an old one – Brian Clough rose to prominence as a player for Boro back in the day, and of course reached the apex of his phenominal managerial career as a manager at the City Ground (in both [...]

Like a true Jekyll and Hyde type character I keep swinging from one extreme to the other when I consider the recent media coverage Forest have been putting out there (particularly in regard to off-the-pitch activities). Perhaps this is the only way to try to express myself without going a bit funny in the head, [...]

That’s what I just heard him say in a segment during BBC Radio Nottingham’s Matchtalk programme. To be more accurate, he used the ever faithful caveat of ‘I don’t expect there to be..’ before the statement, so there is still some wriggle-room for it to be a touch of smoke and mirrors.

It wasn’t the best-kept secret in the world after Kitbag inadvertantly listed the kit early, and it was spotted on sale in a local sports shop. Forest have also decided to make it available early too on their online web shop. Our new away kit is indeed the black and blue checked/split abomination previously featured [...]

Queens Park Rangers – 1 Nottingham Forest – 1 The quest for a first league win goes on for Forest – and who better to notch it against than our next league opponents, I suppose? Forest went behind to a wonder-strike having created plenty of chances beforehand – and continued to do so until McGoldrick [...]

Certainly it’s too early to panic too much, but naturally fans and club alike are keen to register our first [...]

Nottingham Forest – 2 Watford – 4 Well that’s me firmly back down to earth after a rare foray into pre-match optimism! If Billy Davies needed a dossier of evidence to back up his assertion that he needed defensive reinforcements, tonight he has it in DVD form. A disasterous defensive showing was punished emphatically by [...]

Interesting rumours doing the rounds (posting on mobile so forgive the lack of links) regarding our quest to strengthen our defence. Calum Davenport was named in the Evening Post along with quotes from Billy yesterday, which would suggest there will be (or has been) contact between us and West Ham. There are rumours doing the [...]

This time last year Forest had drawn on the opening day with Reading, lost a match slightly unluckily, and faced Watford in their next game still seeking their first league win. Weird, huh? Watford have started the season similarly to us, they drew on the opening day and lost at the weekend – with a [...]
