Thread | periodic reminder to enjoy your life
at 13:02 16 Apr 2025
Discovered on Monday that my next door neighbour had keeled over and passed away on Sunday ( we saw paramedics and then police arrive, so knew something was up). He was a lovely man, 71, active, loved his fishing, and would always have time for natter about the football.
Its really knocked me for six.... his mum had lived with him , but passed away in December at 94, so you always kind of think that "you're from good stock", but you never know when time is up...
The last few years, I've seen a lot of "premature" deaths, and its really reminding me that we only have this time once, so enjoy it whilst you can. |

Thread | losing the ball in transition
at 09:53 3 Apr 2025
One thing I really noticed last night, especially in the second half. We actually won the ball back in our half really well. And those opportunities to transition, are where teams like Forest really hit you hard, but last night it was very clear that we really weren't properly tuned in as to how we transition quickly, and we so often got caught in possession and gave the ball straight back.
I do think its something where the 3 tens need to be stronger and quicker with their hold up play and decision making, but hopefully, if we can keep the same team together for a few games, that might come.
That said, the two goals were great. Delap's reminding me of Chaplin's at Derby....
And what a feeling when the final whistle finally went.... think that might have been the longest 30 minutes of my recent footballing life! |

Thread | We miss burns so much
at 20:22 3 Mar 2025
There's a definite opportunity to get down the forest left, but Johnson just didn't offer that run.
Burger and ogbene injuries really hurt is this season. So much of our joy in the last couple of seasons is from there. |

Thread | United pre-drinks in Sale

Anyone going to be in Sale before the United match tomorrow? I'll probably have a beer or two before jumping on the tram, be good to meet a friendly face to head down with. |

Thread | East midlands airport....
at 13:51 24 Feb 2025
Is that the recommended parking for Forest?
Or does anyone have any advice, as not been there before.
I've seen a couple of schools offering parking, and a few other options.... going to be heading north-west after the game, so currently thinking about utilising Greenfields Primary school, but wondering about any other options? |

Thread | FA Cup 5th round televised games
at 11:36 12 Feb 2025
Last year, all 8 matches were televised, but they were midweek - Monday to Wednesday. This year, they are in theory on the "weekend" 1-2 March, but if they are going to televise all of them does that mean that none of them will kick off at 3pm on a Saturday? |

Thread | Man Utd returns, spares, tickets bought for points....
at 10:02 7 Feb 2025
Not really fussed how it became spare, but if anyone ends up with a spare for the Utd game, even if its relatively last minute, please let me know. I live a couple of miles from Old Trafford, so was hoping to go, but not enough priority.
happy to meet people at ground to collect, or I will be at Coventry tomorrow....
I know its unlikely, but if you don't ask.... :-) |

Thread | Anyone have any experience of voodoo flossing?
at 12:43 14 Jan 2025
Notwithstanding the stupid name, has anyone tried this? I have an ongoing problem with cubital tunnel syndrome, that essentially flares up whenever I try and do any weight training.... I've done some simple nerve gliding exercises, which help a bit, but wondering if Voodoo flossing might also help. All the stuff I have read suggests that no-one really knows why it works, but that it does seem to help. I'm interested in any first hand experiences.

Thread | Troy Deeney's weekly random selection
at 09:44 7 Jan 2025
Given Raul Jimenez a place in team of the week for scoring 2 penalties.... he wasn't even the best striker on show in that game, let alone in the prem?.
And ignored Isak basically because he's been too good for too long. fnarr. |

Thread | What are the chances of ID checks at away games?
at 08:17 14 Aug 2024
I know the club have said that as part of their anti touting policy, they will do ID checks at the ground, and select some people to have to retrieve their tickets at the ground. Has anyone ever seen this in practice?
I'm just intrigued, as I've already spoken to multiple friends in Manchester, who have miraculously got tickets for the City game through friends/family etc. So essentially seeing in practice what we all knew would happen with the priority system.... i.e. those with priority cementing their advantage by always buying a ticket, even if they don't want it, and then moving it on. |
