FOREST AWAY: Brentford, Saturday 31st October – Fan Guide
He won’t have known it, and I highly doubt he would have cared, but on Friday night at Portman Road Neco Williams wrote a little bit of history for him and his teammates. When the ball hit the back of the net early on in the Ipswich rain, the Reds scored in a fourteenth consecutive […]
FOREST AWAY: Ipswich Town, Friday 23rd October – Fan Guide
Our home form so far this season is about as close to miserable as you can get. We haven’t really deserved to win any of them, and while some unfortunate disallowed goals have cost us, we are where we deserve to be right now. The chances are coming but remaining goalless after four Premier League […]
FOREST AWAY: Crystal Palace, Sunday 11th October – Fan Guide
I, along with others from Forza Garibaldi, had the good fortune to spend Thursday evening at the Nigel Doughty Academy in the company of fellow Forest supporters and a number of club officials and staff. This included a tour of the training facilities, an update from Andy Reid on the club’s academy and concluding with […]
FOREST AWAY: Aston Villa, Saturday 12th September – Fan Guide
The debate around a redeveloped City Ground has once again gathered pace as we reach our umpteenth planning committee decision. It’s hard to believe that this was a scheme announced in 2019 meaning early next year we will tick over eight years. I gather we are now at the point where an additional bridge might […]
FOREST AWAY: Liverpool, Saturday 29th August – Fan Guide
Another era has launched. Slowly, tepidly and maybe a bit shit if we are honest with ourselves. We can see signs of what the managerial mayhem of the last 12 months has left us with and unsurprisingly a lack of cohesion and an abundance of exasperation are among them. The fear that will grip us […]
FOREST AWAY: Manchester United, Sunday 17th May – Fan Guide
We are almost there. 28 away days and (almost) done. Trip 29 would have been nice but it was a step too far. The mauling at Villa was incredibly sad and frustrating but, still, Europa League semi-finalists has a nice ring to it, despite the ending still stinging a little bit. I don’t need to […]
FOREST AWAY: Aston Villa, Europa League Semi-Final Second Leg, Thursday 7th May – Fan Guide
I can’t deny it was a little underwhelming putting this particular guide together. There isn’t much the 2,000+ Reds will need to know about a trip to Villa Park. The vast research that had gone into previous excursions isn’t really needed for this one. There isn’t any notes required on currency, the climate or any […]
FOREST AWAY: Chelsea, Monday 4th May – Fan Guide
The next few days could legitimately be among the most important we have ever faced. Games in West London and the West Midlands aren’t just vital to this season but could be huge landmarks stamped onto the history of Nottingham Forest. Survival can’t be mathematically achieved at Stamford Bridge but we could find ourselves a […]
FOREST AWAY: Sunderland, Friday 24th April – Fan Guide
A 25th away stop of the season. We know there will be at least three more trips after this one but we will be longing for a fourth, one final glorious voyage overseas. After the antics in Porto and a pretty decent haul of points in the following home games, we have our first Premier […]
FOREST AWAY: FC Porto, Europa League QF First Leg, Thursday 9th April – Fan Guide
You’ll likely know what links the cities of Zurich, Berlin, Graz and Munich to our history. If you don’t, take a moment and it’ll probably come soon enough. This coming week the Portuguese city of Porto will become the fifth name on this exclusive list. Come Thursday night, all will have hosted Nottingham Forest in […]
