FG Away
FOREST AWAY: Blackburn Rovers, Tuesday 1st October
We travel to Ewood Park for yet another evening jaunt across the country – a third in eight days – but any fatigue is countered by the rather remarkable form we are experiencing. Taking the Arsenal game out of the equation we are in the rare position of having recorded three wins in a row […]
FOREST AWAY: Stoke, Friday 27th September
It could be argued that there are things to be worried about for this one. The chance for us to go top of the league with a win, the rather differing trajectories both teams are taking right now and the fact that the last time Stoke won a home game they beat Forest in March […]
FOREST AWAY: Swansea, Saturday 14th September
After a well-earned break during the International weekend, Sabri Lamouchi’s Reds will be travelling down to Swansea on the back of a seven-game unbeaten run in all competitions, which was kept alive thanks to a hard-fought draw last time out at home to Preston North End. A lovely through ball from Carvalho left Adomah one […]
FOREST AWAY: Fulham, Saturday 24th August
Each year at some point in June when the head honchos at the EFL release the fixture list for the season ahead there are normally three things I immediately do: 1. Check when we are playing our good friends down the A52 2. Scan the Christmas fixtures to see how I can break up my […]
Forest Away: Charlton Athletic, Wednesday 21st August
This season it seems we have been dealt a poor hand when it comes to away games; Cardiff away is a midweek, Stoke has been moved to a Friday night, we face a mid-week trek to Blackburn, along with two weeknight trips to the capital, the first of which comes on Wednesday. I for one, […]
FOREST AWAY: Leeds United, Saturday 10th August – 12:30pm K.O
The early alarm, highly calorific breakfast in an attempt to last the whole day, and customary carrier bag of varying strength alcohol in hand. This can only mean one thing…..away days are back! Sharing the smirk of excitement on your pals faces as you gather on the train platform before an away day is certainly […]

Athens AWAY – Part 3 – Greek Forest Q&A
To follow up our previous Q&A with 3 Olympiacos fans, we touch base with Athens based Forest supporter Vassilis Poulakos….. read on. 1 – So, why do you support Forest? If Olympiacos is the club I’ve supported since I remember myself, I’ve been a Forest fan since the age of 12, back in 1977! […]
Athens AWAY – Part 2 – Olympiacos Fans Q&A
It’s been a few weeks since the Athens tour was announced, and the excitement is brewing among Forest fans (certainly us anyway!). We’ve had some of you get in touch and we’ve seen plenty on social media saying they are making the trip – it’s hard to assess numbers but the club have indicated they believe […]
Athens AWAY – Part 1
Since Evangelos Marinakis took charge of Forest in May 2017, the reds faithful have been speculating ‘will we get the Olympiacos friendly?’. Well, here it is. On paper it looks a perfect trip; 2 friendlies, relatively cheap accommodation, guaranteed blazing heat, and something different from the traditional pre season Spain / Portugal circuit. We’ve put […]
