Pre-season friendly #5 - Union Berlin v Nottingham Forest 23 July KO 16:00

[Steve B]

Forest take their pre-season on the road as Stevie C starts to increase the intensity levels two weeks before the season starts.
Will Lewis O’Brien slot into that centre mid position?
Will Taiwo finally get off the mark against his old club?
How will the defence line up? Will Niakhate, Biancone & Williams continue to impress?

Berlin is a happy hunting ground for the reds courtesy of a Trevor Francis masterclass in the 79/80 Euro Cup Quarter Final. Trailing from the first leg Forest went behind the wall, turned on the magic and silenced the expectant Stasi club.

I’ll be bringing you live updates from Berlin as the Eagle has just landed.

The only updates from the streets so far are that despite reunification they still don’t know how to make a cup of tea.

I’m now forced to move onto something they are good at, bier.

As you're there reporting it 'As It Appens' that's fine by me. Enjoy Stevie.

We used to supp Warsteiner by the bucketload in Oscars Irish bar in Berlin.

Think the drink still going but bet Oscars as long gone.

What to expect from a country that went to war with the world, twice. Who the f*** do they think they are, Mars?!!

Demand for tickets has shot through the roof since news broke that Lingard might do a TikTok routine at half time. Lingard masks are now the best sellers on the tourist stalls.
Meanwhile the lone Forest fan behind enemy lines has hooked up with a Middlesbrough stag do and county Cork hen do and alls going well.
With incoming reds tomorrow Things will be reaching fever pitch by Sat’dy. over and out

Match passes are now available on the Forest site.

Apologies. Difference being is that it was free through the opposition on YouTube and I have short arms and long pockets.

Steve, whenever I see your posts I get confused. Because my real name is Steve B and for a split second I panic, thinking I have no memory of posting it, then realising that I'm Cortez on here. Perhaps it's like Fight Club and you're Tyler Durden.

After a few afternoon slurps in the sun by the river with some newly arrived Forest lads. It’s off to the bier Keller.
Will JLingz make an appearance?
Stevie C is conjuring up some more magic for us I’m sure of it.
