Nottingham Forest Football Club play at the City Ground and are currently in the English Premier League.
A season unexpectedly curtailed by a global pandemic, Nottingham Forest’s U23s side, ably coached by former player and legend Chris Cohen, have been crowned champions of the Professional Development League North. In leading the division by six from Burnley, Forest only suffering two losses in twenty-one and boasted a goal difference of plus thirty-two, Cohen’s…
Nottingham Forest Women’s team are finally back in training ahead of a new season but the Reds will be without two players from the 2019/20 campaign as both Phoebe Warner and Sophie Walton are moving on to pastures new. 20 year old Warner has joined Coventry United after being dual signed at Forest last year…
A couple of months ago during the 40th anniversary week of Nottingham Forest’s second European Cup victory I spoke with the very man that lifted the trophy, the legendary John McGovern. Despite jumping at the opportunity to interview one so coveted perhaps my opening gambit could have set me up for instant failure, I asked…
There was a time when nobody cared about the launch of a new football kit. Going back as far as the 50’s and 60’s it would seem clubs would perhaps change once every ten years, opting for a subtle difference like round neck from v neck for instance. Then came the 70’s and 80’s and…
Remember those endless weekends when you wake up on a Monday morning to find out that good old Matty Cash has been in the team of the week ‘again’?… These priceless little moments for Forest fans could be sadly long forgotten over time as Forest’s fabulous right back looks set to leave the club with…
From fans to journalists, experts to idiots, I have read a lot of negative comments over the last few days and nights following Forest failing at the last hurdle to reach their playoff goal and perhaps rightly so due to the manner in which they failed. But let’s not forget the season they had and…
As the fourth official raised the board of no hope versus Stoke, all I could hear was the sound of Sonny and Cher belting out “I got you babe!” For some, the reality of a Forest implosion may seem shocking, unfortunately for most it’s indicative of our recent past. Where do I begin? Well, I’ve…
Is it too early? It all seems a little bit raw and emotional to start the inquest as to why Nottingham Forest failed to secure a playoff slot last night but in a couple of days, when the dust has settled, the question will need to be asked on who’s at fault and why did…
Nottingham Forest 1-4 Stoke City (EFL Championship) 22.07.20 ‘Football, Bloody Hell’ once said a famous Manager after clinching the most dramatic and unbelievable victories as his side bounced back from the death. Ironically back in 1999 when Manchester United beat Bayern Munich in stoppage time to lift the European Champions Cup, Forest were bottom and…
The day has come, the clock is ticking, by tonight Nottingham Forest Football Club will know their destiny. How do they play it? Go for the win or sit back and keep calm? Whatever happens it will only be the right way if by 10pm tonight the Reds are in the Playoffs. Sabri Lamouchi, the…
At 2pm on Sunday afternoon, an hour before kick off at Oakwell as Nottingham Forest needed just a point at bottom of the table Barnsley to secure a playoff position with two matches of the season left to play… 30,000 sighs of ‘oh no’ mumbled across the internet as Sabri Lamouchi announced his team. The…
As the clock struck ’95 at Pride Park little over 2 weeks ago, Nottingham Forest were on 70 points and were eleven points better off than the best of those outside the playoff zone with just five games (and a couple of added minutes) remaining of the Championship season. Ever-since that moment of Joe Worrall…
Barnsley 1-0 Nottingham Forest (EFL Championship) 19.07.20 Nottingham Forest failed to take a point against bottom of the table Barnsley at Oakwell this afternoon in what could perhaps be suggested as the club’s worst performance under Manager Sabri Lamouchi. The Reds made the short trip up the M1 knowing a point would be all they…
A repetitive theme in Sabri Lamouchi’s press conferences of late is that his players are ‘tired’ which he often relays whilst giving his answers back to the media pre & post game. I get that Sabri’s English is much better than my French and I give him leeway for anything perhaps lost in translation as…
Nottingham Forest 2-2 Swansea City (EFL Championship) 15.07.20 They may be getting there but they are doing it slowly. Nottingham Forest tonight took another step towards a playoff place after coming from behind to share a point with Swansea City in an entertaining and controversial game at the City Ground. Swansea took an early lead…
Like most of this season in the Championship for Nottingham Forest, It wasn’t exactly spectacular on Saturday but It was a good solid weekend for the Reds in their push for a playoff place as Sabri Lamouchi’s men ‘did what they needed to’ in keeping Preston North End at arm’s length as defeats for both…
Preston North End 1-1 Nottingham Forest (EFL Championship) 11.07.20 Nottingham Forest endured a hard-earned point at Deepdale after Lewis Grabban’s early penalty was cancelled out by Preston North End’s Jayden Stockley with neither side able to find a winner in their fight for playoff status. In truth the result was a better point for fifth…
After a couple of disappointing results, Nottingham Forest Football Club will look to get their Championship playoff push back on track as they face Preston North End at Deepdale tomorrow with their hosts in eighth place in the table hoping to close the gap on the Reds to just four points. Forest, currently fifth, will…
Despite suffering setbacks in their last two Championship matches I still believe Nottingham Forest will make the play-offs, and that more importantly, they know exactly where to improve if they are to be promoted. The Derby game was a bitter pill to swallow for Sabri Lamouchi and his troops having absolutely dominated the Rams for…
Well that was a load of rubbish. But in truth did we expect anything better? The morning after the night before is always a little more underwhelming than the party itself and after throwing the good mood away late on in Derby it was either a) pick ourselves up and do it again (but this…
