FOREST AWAY: Tottenham Hotspur, Sunday 22nd March – Fan Guide
The general consensus on the streets and in the bars of Herning was that we could do it. I certainly felt we could, but there was an obvious realism to whether we would. Five minutes in and I was pretty damn certain it was happening. There was just a bit of magic in the air, […]
FOREST AWAY: FC Midtjylland, Europa League Last 16, Thursday 19th March – Fan Guide
Do you remember the first day of the summer holidays when you were at school? The most exciting of times when life stretched out beyond the horizon, and your imagination ran wild with what the next few weeks had in store. Every day was a new adventure. Playing football, turning up at your mates house […]
FOREST AWAY: Manchester City, Wednesday 4th March – Fan Guide
I was sad to hear about the passing of Julie Pritchard recently. I didn’t know Julie particularly well but I had spoken to her numerous times, including out in Athens on the 2019 short pre-season tour, and she had joined us on previous boat trips and at the odd Forza Garibaldi event. I always found […]
FOREST AWAY: Brighton, Sunday 1st March – Fan Guide
Spain, Austria, Holland, Portugal, Turkey, and now Denmark. It’s another intriguing and exciting destination on our grand European tour. I was personally pleased we avoided having to repeat the trip to Betis, although Midtjylland does bring a more complicated itinerary and a much smaller allocation. I’ve seen a few numbers mentioned in regard to the […]
FOREST AWAY: Fenerbahce, Europa League Play-Off First Leg, Thursday 19th February – Fan Guide
Another mad old week in the modern history of Nottingham Forest. These European away guides are pretty big on the word count already so I’ll try not to get too lost in what has unfolded, but I do feel some relief the Dyche tenure has been brought to a swift conclusion. I was tired of […]
FOREST AWAY: Leeds United, Friday 6th February – Fan Guide
There are so many games at the moment it’s hard to keep up. If you include this Friday in Leeds, we don’t have a blank midweek now until the second week in March, although our premature exit from the cup does at least offer us a rare blank weekend next week. We ended January feeling […]
FOREST AWAY: Brentford, Sunday 25th January – Fan Guide
The reaction from the away end at full-time was as inevitable as it was understandable. ‘What the fucking hell was that?’ is the current song of choice to surmise the ghastly performances in the first half at the Wrexham and the entire showing in Braga. Walking back into the city on Thursday night I kicked […]
FOREST AWAY: SC Braga, Europa League Game 7, Thursday 22nd January – Fan Guide
This won’t be a surprise to anyone but I have adored our three away games in Europe so far. All have been quite different to each other, and I’ve personally really enjoyed mixing the typical shenanigans with a little bit of sight seeing and culture. In Amsterdam, as part of the game against Utrecht, I […]
FOREST AWAY: Wrexham, FA Cup R3, Friday 9th January – Fan Guide
It’s been a busy old week again, hasn’t it? Forest having a trio of away games seems to be becoming a more regular feature, owing to being drawn away in cup competitions and our European obligations this season. Hats off to those who are combining trips to Villa and West Ham with a third away […]
FOREST AWAY: West Ham United, Tuesday 6th January – Fan Guide
The most recent edition of this away guide for Saturday’s visit to Villa Park gathered a bit more traction than it usually would, perhaps due to the exasperation that was evident and an assortment of ‘F-bombs’ that were scattered throughout! The reaction to the recent run of games likely wouldn’t be as hostile were it […]
