The City Ground Redevelopment – Supporter Consultation
Hello. Thanks for taking the time to complete our brief survey. Back in May Forza Garibaldi were invited by the Club to a consultation evening where we had input into the stadium redevelopment plans. We felt that it was important that this consultation was opened up to the entire fan base as much as is […]
The Forza Garibaldi Boat Trip – Saturday 21st September 2019
The fourth annual Forza Garibaldi Boat Trip is almost upon us. Boats of wildly differing sizes will be sailing down the Trent before Saturday’s game against Barnsley and we hope one or two more will once again tag along to the four we have organised. We depart from close to Trent Bridge at noon but […]
1865 Commemorative Plaque Unveiling – Saturday 31st August 2019
Nottingham Forest Football Club. 154 years of history. Pioneers, groundbreakers and, for a short time, arguably the best team on the planet. At the very least we were in the top one. This is a football club that has not just been a celebrated member of the game but has inspired too – the passing […]
Mayfly
The news when it came was, in fairness, rather surprising. But is anything even a shock anymore at this bewildering football club? There was a natural instinct for some to react in correlation with their long held view that this manager was or wasn’t the answer. Delight or dismay. While what seems like a majority […]

The Rebel History of Nottingham
At the heart of Nottingham’s history and culture is a rebellious streak. It is entwined with tales of heroism, innovation and achievement which all dominate the city’s past and its present. The stories of Nottingham as a ‘Rebel City’ are brought to life primarily by Robin Hood and his band of outlaws along with Nottingham […]
Sticking Plasters – One Year On
In the days before Christmas the plan was to write a piece that chartered the renaissance of NFFC throughout 2018. A few highs, plenty of stumbles but recognised progress. I was actually looking forward to it. Sadly it wasn’t to be. As the 73rd minute arrived at Carrow Road on Boxing Day the latest project […]
Derby Away – Image Gallery
Our last two away games have both been draws but I’ve enjoyed them as much as any I can remember in recent times. Derby wasn’t the attacking feast that was offered up at Villa Park but it was an absorbing encounter all the same. What really made it was being in the away end. Some […]
Villa Away – Image Gallery
As the referee signalled the end of the game several players dropped to the floor and a loud booming cheer erupted from 2,600 Forest fans housed in one corner of Villa Park. We had witnessed what most of us will probably describe as the greatest match we have ever seen. Winning matters but would we […]
FOREST AWAY – Aston Villa, Wednesday 28th November
After a convincing victory at Hull this is an entirely different type of test. Villa have started to become the force they should be under Dean Smith and it will be a tough task to overcome them on home soil. Still, we go there with no reason to be concerned. It’s pleasing that it sounds […]
