Ah, it’s been nice to have a weekend without Forest to spoil things, hasn’t it? Well, if you brush aside the whispers of who’s leaving and when. So far the only confirmed news on that score are Leicester and their bids for Wes Morgan – but, of course – it would certainly be the Forest [...]

Let’s start with something positive – our youngsters are 7-1 against Wigan in the FA Youth Cup fourth round. Bamford has scored four and there’s still twenty odd minutes to go. Perhaps the future isn’t so bleak after all? And now, let’s drop back down to earth by contemplating the weekend’s fortunes of our senior [...]

First I suppose I should welcome Sean O’Driscoll to Forest – I’m quite pleased with his arrival. He might encourage a few of the team to, y’know, try passing it along the floor to their teammates occasionally. Certainly he’s used to trying to make silk purses out of sow’s ears – and with not a [...]

Can anyone muster up any enthusiasm for this one? So, Leicester are on quite rubbish form – we are worse. Arguably a positive development for us is the suspension of Luke Chambers after his red card at the weekend (a bit mean, I know, but he could do with a break if nothing else). The [...]

I’ve got a mate who supports Southampton, our next opponents, and current leaders in the Championship. “We’re there for the taking at your place” it said. I wondered whether I missed a previous text and this was the punchline to a bizarre joke, but apparently that’s what he thinks – hard though it is for [...]

Ah, the magic of the FA Cup third round. Is strangely absent when it comes to us, whilst Leeds notably seem to get a plum draw each year, we generally don’t. Marry the inauspiciousness of the fixture itself, replicated earlier in the season in the league, with obviously the largely appalling recent form we’ve shown [...]

The hunt for a goal goes on the road on Bank Holiday Monday, and ironically our next opportunity to find the onion bag comes against the team against whom we last managed to score. Indeed, we scored three goals against them. Could this frankly painful ten and a half hour stint of no goals come [...]

My new year resolution might be to be a little bit less of a grumpy sod. Which gives me a couple of days to get such things out of my system. It’s fair to say that our last trip to the City Ground wasn’t particularly fruitful, and that coupled with the higher calibre opponents we [...]

Right then – first things first, huge apologies for my lack of online time over the last week or so – sad to say I got completely floored by a nasty case of man-flu that conspired to make me not only miss previewing the Palace game, but the trip itself too. Rubbishness! I suppose I [...]

Three defeats on the bounce, ensconced in the bottom three – it’s not good is it? The Reds will be eager to turn the tables on the arch-rivals of our last opponents as we welcome Crystal Palace to the City Ground. Palace of course are on a high having reached the semi-finals of the Carling [...]
