we had a guy called graham richards (day job: a barrister) through the 80s and 90s. sure some of you have heard of him. one of his better ones:

"gascoinge is sent off...good, get off you fat lout" lol lol.

I forget the exact phrasing, but something like "the European Cup is nearly as big as Forest captain John McGovern!"

Not sure who the commentator was back then.

"WHAT A GOAL! WHAT A GOAL BY COLLYMORE! Forest fans dance onto the pitch..." - Derby fan Martin Fisher on the day Forest confirmed promotion in 93-94 at Peterborough.

And a more contemporary one...

"EARNSHAAAAAW.... SCORES! FOREST HIT FIVE AGAINST DERBY!" - Colin Fray at his finest!
 

Col

Has he singed yet?
Colin Fray's commentary for the Lewis McGugan goal against Ipswich. "It went in like a rocket!".

He gets excitable does our Colin, but that was something else!

Colin Frey from our last game of the 2007-2008 season, and it was nothing to do with the action he was watching:

"...and Cheltenham have scored! Cheltenham 2, Doncaster 1!!!"

Anyone who listened to that will know why he went absolutely mad.

And the old John Motson classic always cracks me up:

"For those of you watching in Black and White, Spurs are in the yellow shirts".

Genius.

Ah yes, the last day of the season when we got promoted. I was listening to that game (still angry that I couldn't get the time off work), the commentary was superb and I was in bits by the end. lol

Couple from some twat on radio leper;

'City head into half time 1-0 down,but to be fair they have been playing in the fog in that half'.

'City bring the attack down to the Sheff Utd goal, its on the wing, and it goes out for a corner to Utd'.

"...and Cheltenham have scored! Cheltenham 2, Doncaster 1!!!"

Surely a clear winner for any Forest fan ... well, one of recent times anyway, the older lot probably have better memories.
