Edit: loads of players have played for both, I must improve my 'whose played for both' research. So as we hit the midway point of the season, Forest find themselves on the brink of the playoffs, in 7th place and 1 point from 6th. Their top scorer, and the division's top scorer, Lewis Grabban has 14 goals this season and is certainly one to be aware of. As others have mentioned below, in 33 games away to Forest, we have 14 draws and not one away win, a stat which we surely have to get rid of eventually. We go in on the back of a good win against Boro, and with the chance of putting ourselves as high as 8th with a win. Preston won at the City Ground on December 8th, but from the match report I read, it was only after a series of good saves from the Preston keeper, Declan Rudd, and Forest wasting a number of chances. Preston then took their chance, and got the 0-1 win. I reckon we will most likely hope for something similar on Saturday. A solid performance from our back line and keeper will be key, and a clinical eye in front of goal. Sounds so simple doesn't it. Enjoy it those who are going, and come you super hoops, we surely have to break the record eventually!
Wouldn't it be wunderbar if this was the season that the Mighty Rs came away from The City Ground with trois points?
LDLLDDLLDLLLLLLDDDDLLLLDDLDLDLDDL This sodding Welsh place name deserves a W on the end of it......C'mon U R's
Good job Dave, must be the most pointless job all season, doomed to lose as usual. Please Santa! I've been a good boy, promise! Can you give us the best possible present this year? Come on you R's! BREAK THE HOODOO!
Big Dave Needham to be added to that list. He joined us from Notts County and we almost immediately sold him to Forest as County refused to sell him direct to Forest, or so the legend goes......
Luongo called up for the Aussies in the Asia Cup, could be gone for seven games if they do well. Not sure when it starts...
Cheers Dave Agree the VooDoo rot has to stop This year would be great 1-2 away win Midhead Oxbow can do it
This DAVE bloke is really struggling. Didn’t someone else used to do these threads? (Just a joke DAVE, thanks again for your efforts).
Oh, oh, oh new pre match entertainment, guess Woody’s new wheels. Me first: Nissan Insult Mercedes Lebensraum Kia Pe’ed Volkswagen Toxic (4WD) Alfa Corrosio Land Rover Eggplant (hybrid) Renault Brie (LPG) Tesla Avoidance (Wind powered) Vauxhall Twat Got to be one of them.
Who was that forest player a few seasons back (3-5). He was a defender and they used him as a striker and I think he scored twice. We were shocking. I remember it was on TV, maybe over xmas/boxing day?
