Replaying the 96/97 Season in Sensible Soccer

[Harvey]

Self explanatory really. I'll be replaying the whole season in Sensible World of Soccer 96/97. Can I avoid the drop?

Matchday 1: Sheffield Wednesday vs NOTTINGHAM FOREST

 

[Barry]

This game was one of the free games with the pc I bought in 1996. Then it was free with xbox gold for the first half of this month.

Matchday 2: Chelsea vs NOTTINGHAM FOREST

After a Dean Saunders hat-trick earned the Reds a 3-3 draw against Wednesday but having lost winger Bryan Roy for at least three matches due to injury, Forest travel to Stamford Bridge in the hope of getting a result against Chelsea...

What about Wednesday's £2.25m offer for Colin Cooper though eh?

Im gonna ask for more I think

Excellent result. Stroke of genius to include Campbell. Saunders finding the onion bag again. He could be vital to our season.

Man of the match: Big Norm. Was gutted when Viali got his goal
Thought Big Norm deserved a clean sheet after all of those fantastic saves he pulled off.

Can't see us going down on that performance.

Harvey Bangerz Red and White Army!

Kept us the three points didn't he?

There's a long way to go yet but we're looking solid.

After we went 1 up the midfield just went missing and resorted to aimlessly punting the ball up front. This just invited Chelsea pressure again and again. It was in this vital period Big Norm kept them out. 2nd half was much the same. Even got close to Viali's shot.

Away support was awesome as usual.

Early goal set us up nicely. And there was some curl on that shot that left the keeper clutching at air. Dropped lucky with some shocking defending from them for our second.

There was a fair bit of luck involved in our second, but I'll take it

Still got to stick it in the onion bag though...

Matchday 3: NOTTINGHAM FOREST vs Middlesbrough

After the Reds grabbed all three points at Stamford Bridge can they do the same at home against the Smoggies?

And will Forest accept Wednesday's bid for Colin Cooper?

 

[adamthered]

Great 3-2 victory for the Reds

 

[Harvey]

Spoiler alert!

Matchday 4: Blackburn Rovers vs NOTTINGHAM FOREST

Can the Reds bag a second away win of the season at Ewood Park?

 

[Harvey]

Blatant red card at 4:28 by the way

The free kick at 1:06 is timeless Forest

I know! I was trying to put some heavy curl on the shot but just ended up sending it westward.

The intro to this game was one of the best things i'd ever seen as a kid

Matchday 5: NOTTINGHAM FOREST vs Arsenal

A tough home fixture up next against the Gunners, with sought after defender Colin Cooper out for three games

(PS. I'm not sure why SWOS has Arsenal's away kit as light blue, IIRC their away kit was yellow that season?)

 

[Barry]

It's that man again on the scoresheet
