Forest links
These are the various Forest related sites I’ve encountered in my internet travels - at least, they’re the ones I’ve looked at more than once, so I suppose that this is at least a limited form of recommendation!
Other Forest blogs - I’ve never really investigated other teams - but Forest seem to have a fair few bloggers out there!
| NFFC | Well written thoughts on the mighty reds by a trio of Forest fans - Baz, Joe and Rish. Recommended. |
| Forest Feelings | A new blog from Hannah, who I’m pretty sure used to provide us with Forza Forest back in the day! |
| Never Trust a Hippy | A not-totally Forest-focused blog, but a great read and instigator of ‘Robbo Day’ |
| Trent End Talk | Alex from Staffs writes this blog, as I make this page he’s not updated for some time, alas. |
| Leeds Red | Only one update this season so far, but it was recently, so with a big of luck it will continue! |
| Mist rolling in | Decent match reports from Dom, and also had a go at David Platt, which can’t be a bad thing, now can it? |
| Lucky Col | Not wholly Forest, but there’s plenty there for Reds fans, including an amusing account of a meeting with Stan Collymore! |
| McGaribaldi | Another not-exclusively-Forest blog which is a great read - and also has an amusing Collymore-related account on there currently!! |
Other content-driven Forest sites - sites containing the latest Forest news or opinion, from the serious to the downright surreal!
| Official website | It’s a nasty template-driven thing of horror much like every football league site - but it’s an invaluable source of news and ticket updates etc. |
| 3D City Ground | A 3d interactive computer model of our ground - ever wondered what it would be like to sit somewhere else? Wonder no longer!. |
| Forest Legends | Early days for this site, but still raised a few chuckles. Although how Rosario and Silenzi even qualify as nearly-men baffles me! Great fun. |
| Vital Forest | A combination of opinion articles, news and a fairly active forum pretty much makes up an accessible Forest online community. |
| Forest Online | A community-based portal with regularly updated articles, prediction leagues and a message board. |
| Stress and Pie | Irreverent and genius - a completely off the wall take on all matters Forest - not exactly news, not exactly match reports - just well, funny! |
| Bridport Red Archive | Invaluable collection of all manner of statistics and wonder - perfect for settling those niggling questions about past games! |
| Brian Clough tribute | The ultimate Brian Clough tribute site, and home of the Brian Clough statue fund’s activities. |
| Ken Smales Website | A brilliant source of old photos and facts - Ken is of course the former club secretary, and author of the Official Statistical History of Nottingham Forest |
| Latest News | NewsNow checks numerous websites (including this one!) for the latest Forest related news, and links to it on this page - very useful! |
| Forest Mugshot |
A community type site where members can ‘mugshot’ articles or pictures of interest. |
| Forest Webjam | A mixture of opinion pieces, match reports and a forum from another community-type offering. |
Forest forums - forums/message boards - this is where you can find a bit of interactive forum action, I don’t post on them generally, but like to read a couple. It’s not exhaustive though, I’ve only included the ones I tend to look at occasionally, along with a few first impressions.
| LTLF forum | If you can pick through the off-topic tangents then definitely the most accessible forum, also appears the busiest. |
| Forest forums |
Reasonably busy, VERY opinionated - but open to read for guests so can be a useful source of gossip. |
| Alternative Forest | Seems a friendly place - but can be quiet, and not exactly first with the gossip/news, but seems a good place to chat with Forest fans. |
| Nottingham Forest Matchday | Fledgling forum attached to a USA-based supporters club website. Will be of definite interest to any trans-Atlantic Reds fans. |
Nottingham websites- general interest to Nottinghamians, and may well contain a few bits and pieces about Forest along the way (in fact, most of them definitely do!)
| Left Lion | A portal of Nottinghamness, which also takes the form of a free newspaper available in a myriad of city centre outlets. Features yours truly as a Forest correspondant currently. |
| Left Lion blog |
The daily doings of Left Lion in blog form, irreverent takes on local news and sport as well as a general source of amusement. |
| BBC Nottingham | Good place to catch up with interviews you might’ve missed after games - as well as limited Forest news. |
| Nott’m Evening Post | Dreadful local rag, but often get exclusive interviews etc that can be useful or interesting - but always remember, they once claimed we were going to sign Roberto Baggio! |
I will update these links as I go - if you feel anything is urgently missing then please feel free to drop me an email. You could post a comment, but the anti-spam software might delete comments with internet addresses in them.

Hi
Just looking over your site - tidy stuff mate
Just wondering if you fancy adding my site link to those listed above.
I am the editor of the Reds ‘Clubfanzine’ website. Took this on in August as it is a new media concern rivalling that of the old and dated Rivals site. Many of the other [i'm told reliable] Rivals editors have now switched over to the Clubfanzine network; I was recruited with no such site experience but a deep passion for all things Forest, and I can write a bit as well
see what you think to the site - http://www.clubfanzine.com/nottingham_forest - and hopefully if you think it is feasible you can add the link for others to have a look at and use
