A brief diversion from transfer talk

[BuckeyeRed]

This Forest team were before my time but damn, I would have loved to see them play.

[OLDMANRED]

The heroes of my youth. What a team.

 

[Annesley Red]

The greatest ever memory of beats all Cloughie glory for me

 

[Pasty Power]

Wow, that was my 1st ever game! standing on a wooden stool in the old pop stand, I think I enjoyed it more today than all those years ago,

 

[derbyshirered]

Grummitt Hindley Winfield Newton Mckinlay Hennessey Lyons Barnwell Baker Wignall Storey Moore Sub Hinton

A great day right behind the goal never thought Moore would put it in the net.

 

[alabamared]

I was in the kid's pen in the East Stand at the Bridgford End.

What a day.

Now anybody got any footage of when we went to Derby and won 2-0 scorers B Lyons and I Storey-Moore, particularly good day out as we could sing the prophetic song we had been singing all season "When Ian moore scores a goal you can shove your hector up your hole etc".

It's a bit short but here you go:

[Joe Baker's Dog]

I first went to see Forest in 1966 and so saw this team. A team that should have gone on and done better than they did.

 

[Kjetil Osvold's Cat]

Maybe some of you remember this one too?:

(Forest vs Man Utd 64/65)

 

[Riverside Red]

What an atmosphere, I'll be honest it looked like someone could easily be crushed at times, however safer standing should be an option to capture that kind of atmosphere again at matches.

 

[Captain Sinister]

Thanks for the link to the Everton game.
I was among the throng on the Kop...
The foul by Brian Labone on Joe Baker was cynical, premeditated and he should have given a straight red, plus he should have been done for GBH.
Effectively finished Baker's career.
Still, Storey-Moore delivered the goods.

 

[the OWL]

for those of you watching that in black and white, Forest were wearing red.

 

[weasel]

Wow. Some of the football played there is genuinely brilliant. Some lovely diagonal through balls, and one quite incredible save from the keeper.

Watching the Trent End go ballistic after Storey-Moore's goal gave me chills, and I wouldn't even be born for another 20 years.

A far cry from some of the diving, overpaid nonsense we call football these days.

 

[garibaldifred]

Amen.

 

[E4B&JW]

brilliant,
great times to have watched forest
we may not have won anything in the 60's but we played
some good football and we were known for playing good football,
has anyone have any highlights of when forest played
Eintracht frankfurt in 1967 inter city fairs cup match one of
the best games forest have ever played,

 

[OLDMANRED]

Dont think us who were growing up in those days realise how lucky we were. Not just with the great Carey team but all the other sporting stars that were around in our era. In football, Best Moore Law Charlton and internationally Pele Eusabio and Beckenbau to name a few. In cricket we had the great Sir Gary just across .the road. In boxing Cassius Clay. Golf Jack Nicholas and Arnold Palmer. And in rugby my all time sporting hero Willy John McBride. Halcyon days

 

[Bryn Gunn]

Just showed my dad the clip, he was at the game in the old East Stand.

 

[OLDMANRED]

Bit of a sidetrack but can you name the players we sang these tunes about.
1 Sha la la la le. Faces
2Exert from a teenage opera ( Grocer Jack ). Keith West
3 Bobby Joe. The equals
4 I cant control myself. The Troggs
5 The British Egg Advert

 

[sedgred]

The season my life long love affair with the club started, thanks Dad. Viewed the Everton game with goose bumps on my arm.

[The Vicar]

I was there. Read my chapter in Those Forest Men for more detail on that great team.

 

[ForestinLancs]

In the East Stand for me that day - being a footy fan in those days was so much better an atmosphere to be part off. A great side with great players but no way the same as the "golden years" of Sir Brian .. and it contained more than a couple of later traitors of course!
