    Pete Martell RIP

    Please excuse me for using the forum to pay tribute to someone I've been friends with since the mod days in the sixties, a fellow Sneinton resident and, in the old-fashioned sense, a truly genuine Nottingham character who has very recently passed away. Above all, NFFC ran through Pete's veins...

    Sean Dyche

    For anyone interested, Dyche appears on the latest edition of Notts TV's Teamtalk show, where he gives a very illuminating insight into life in the Premier League from the perspective of a manager of a so-called unfancied club. He gives his informed appraisal of Forest's prospects, whilst also...

    Notts TV Teamtalk

    It's often pretty forgettable, but I would highly recommend this week's edition with Nigel Clough as special guest. Nigel gives a very engaging insight into his playing career at the CG. He also pays tribute to one of my all-time top-10 favourite Forest players, Ian Bowyer. It's available...

    Charlie McParland

    It has been made public that our former coach, Charlie McParland, has suffered a heart attack. Despite the fact that I've been less than kind towards him in terms of some the comments he made in his role as a local TV pundit, I sincerely wish him a speedy recovery.

    'The Bomb Squad'......

    ........looks like it's starting to thin-out a bit now with Cummings and Traore agreeing to move on. I expect there'll be more movement during the last week of the window when clubs start to get a bit desperate - although that's assuming Mancienne, McKay, Ward, Vellios and Clough actually have...

    Billy to be a future guest on Teamtalk show?

    I've just finished watching this week's show which featured Chris Cohen as a special guest. Chris was asked a number of predictable questions, one of which being who was the best manager he played under during his Forest career. Although he made special mention of Pearce and Warburton, with...

    Ravi......

    Always one of the more measured and thoughtful posters on this forum who doesn't appear to have contributed for some time now. Has anyone seen or heard from him?

    It was 60 years ago today.......

    ....when, under no small amount of protest on his part, my 16-year-old eldest brother was charged with taking this excited, wide-eyed 8-year-old to his first league match at the City Ground. Although he would still much rather have been enjoying the proceedings unfold elsewhere in the ground...

    Here We Go.......

    It didn't take long for the ever-sanctimonious Pope and his equally-deluded acolytes over on Vital to start dusting-off their pitchforks. I must admit, I did think they'd at least wait until we've lost a game before they started, but Frank McParland's ripe for the treatment now it seems...

    Dave Serella

    Thank you to Oldmanred for bringing my attention to the very sad news that Dave has been diagnosed with early-stage dementia. He bravely appeared on Radio 2 this morning to discuss the issue concerning brain damage and continually heading a football. I can confirm that Dave is a top fella and a...

    Has anyone else wondered......

    .....if we'd now be any worse off had the al-Hasawis not come forward when they did, and the Doughty estate was only left with the option of passing the club onto the Pye/Arthur-led consortium that was reportedly waiting in the wings if more wealthy buyers couldn't be found. I ask, although I...

    John Perkins

    RIP If remember correctly, John came to Forest as a direct consequence of us signing Gary Crosby from Lincoln United, who he was managing at the time. Cloughie being very impressed with how he conducted himself during the Crosby negotiations. A nice fella and an excellent youth coach...

    What a sh*thole!

    Went to pick up my ST this morning and, whilst standing in the queue, it really struck me how shamefully awful the main approach to the ground is looking. What appears to be litter left over from the final games of last season still lays around the edge of the car-park amongst the foot-high...

    Our Garry....

    Please don't get get me wrong. I loved watching the bloke during his first spell with us; he was brave, unselfish and in many ways the complete centre-forward; thoroughly deserving of far more credit than he was given at the time by observers from beyond this part of the world. In fact, the...
