County perform smash and grab at Aldershot A moment of brilliance at the death rescued a point for Notts County in a battling performance at the EBB Stadium. Aldershot Town had taken the lead moments before half time, a finely placed finish by Ollie Bozanic. After another frustrating 45 minutes, a loss seemed to be [...]

Donny don’t do the reds any favours A frustrating afternoon for the Reds – but whatever irritations I got from the on-the-pitch antics pale into insignificance compared to the reaction of some of our so-called supporters. Some of them are like petulant and spoilt children, and it’s been like that since Derby away – [...]

Forest lose unbeaten run… at Pride Park!
It was written. Football can be as predictable as it is manic, and today’s meltdown has been lurking in the shadows for some time.

Tail of Two halves as Camp saves another penalty
Contrasting halves for the Reds today saw them play some of their best stuff this season in the opening half – only to meet a much more organised and hard-working Reading side in the second. It comes to something when you come away from a win [...]

Forest look flash against the Albion
There’s that scene in the Matrix, when Neo first faces one of the agents and fights rather than runs. “What’s happening?” asks Trinity, Morpheus – oft derided for his faith in ‘the one’ simply answers “He’s starting to believe.”
That’s how I feel having watched the Reds spend 70 minutes [...]

Reds make easy work of ‘Poor’ Preston
The Reds won this at a stroll, and that’s not a slur on their efforts – they just made it look so easy. It helped that Preston were never really at the races, by the time they’d mustered a chance they’d already conceded two.
Ecstasy and then agony [...]

Forest smash and grab the points in Swansea
A smash and grab trip to Swansea for the Reds keeps our unbeaten run intact and puts us back up to the lofty perch of third in the league – and within two points of West Brom in second (albeit with the Baggies having a game in hand [...]

Fabulous Forest make the Foxes look tame!
