FOREST AWAY: Manchester City, Wednesday 4th December – Fan Guide
A strange few days lie ahead. What are we facing against City; a wounded beast ready to take their frustration out on their next opponent or a tamed creature who can be frustrated and overcome? And then we have a similarly uncertain experience against United who may (or may not) be resurgent as their latest […]

FOREST AWAY: Arsenal, Saturday 23rd November – Fan Guide
I’ll admit, the frequent international breaks aren’t as much of a chore as they were when were in the division below. It used to be rather painful to have a blank weekend only to be scheduled to have a Tuesday night at Preston a few weeks later. There is, I should point out, a visit […]

FOREST AWAY: Leicester City, Friday 25th October – Fan Guide
It’s been a peculiar couple of weeks, but hopefully Friday night will conclude with two wins in five days and a dizzying elevation up the Premier League table. Away from the continued impressive start to the season, the latest punishments being handed out dominated the talk around the club. The sanctions we have received for […]

FOREST AWAY: Chelsea, Sunday 6th October – Fan Guide
As we venture ever further into this rather splendid purple patch of away form, I’ve been thinking about what has been my greatest ever away day. Especially after that incredible day at Anfield a few weeks back. I just missed out on some of the great trips of the nineties, but among hundreds of abysmal, […]

Forza Garibaldi Fan Advisory Board & General Update – September 2024
Hello. Hope you are good and enjoying this unbeaten start to the season. The main purpose of this is to offer an update from our position on the Fan Advisory Board, resurrecting our reports last season that aimed to provide supporters with a fan-eye view of goings on. Hopefully you all saw last week’s update […]

FOREST AWAY: Brighton & Hove Albion, Sunday 22nd September – Fan Guide
Last Saturday was the sort of day you used to dream about. The joy in the away end is a sight that will not hurry from our minds and has been added to the wonderful moments we have been able to enjoy in the last few years. I think we all started to get a little […]

FOREST AWAY: Liverpool, Saturday 14th September – Fan Guide
I suspect that among the 3,000 Forest fans headed to Anfield this weekend there will be a good few who will be ticking off a new ground. Promotion a couple of seasons back, as fantastic as it was, also proved useful to try and see Forest at a few new stadiums, having been entrenched in […]

FOREST AWAY: Southampton, Saturday 24th August – Fan Guide
Another season is underway and nineteen Premier League away games stretch out in front of us. Perhaps there is a little less sparkle three seasons in but any loss in novelty is surely compensated by the idea that Forest are slowly on the way to becoming an established top flight team for the first time […]

Note to Self
A letter from 36-year-old me in May 2022 to 13-year-old me in May 1999. *First written for an issue of the Trevor Francis Tracksuits fanzine in 2022* Ayup lad. I hope this letter finds you well. You don’t know me yet, but I know a little bit about you. If I’m correct, you are about […]

FOREST AWAY: Burnley, Sunday 19th May – Fan Guide
The sweeping glass façade offers a perfect vantage point for the owner to look down on what he has built, single handedly. The players have just arrived at the Jorge Mendes Arena, and they greet him warmly but with great respect. He had decided to pick the team today, this game was just too important. […]
