FOREST AWAY: Fulham, Wednesday 6th December – Fan Guide
One of the things I’ve really come to enjoy about being a Premier League team is that there is blessed gaps in the midweek scheduling. I think I’m right in saying that this is the only scheduled away fixture on a regular evening slot. It’s actually quite bizarre how in the Championship that they shoe-horn […]
FOREST AWAY: West Ham United, Sunday 12th November – Fan Guide
The calm has been restored after a delightful victory over Villa. Cooper fist-pumps all round and the team were serenaded by a boisterous City Ground. All is well, until the next time it isn’t. Sunday (it’s always Sunday now it seems) presents a game that is hard to read. Last season this fixture was one […]
FOREST AWAY: Liverpool, Sunday 29th October – Fan Guide
Games like Luton, moments like Luton are going to come. As ridiculous and as agonising as they are, we aren’t above them happening to us. They shouldn’t happen but they will happen. Mistakes were made and bad judgement was apparent, but such vigorous finger pointing and whining is utterly ridiculous. In the hours and the […]
FOREST AWAY: Crystal Palace, Saturday 7th October – Fan Guide
As we step into October and the nights begin to draw in quite quickly, there is usually a chance to assess what the campaign might have in store. At this point last season, it was very much about survival, both for the team and the manager, after a dismal loss at Leicester. There was a […]
FOREST AWAY: Manchester City, Saturday 23rd September – Fan Guide
We should be beating teams like Burnley at home…apparently. Burnley hadn’t registered a single point yet and are obviously a bit useless…apparently. The dominant feeling as we trudged away into the year’s first autumnal night after a 1-1 draw on Monday evening was one of frustration. Yet at the same time, a small sense of […]
FOREST AWAY: Chelsea, Saturday 2nd September – Fan Guide
A cynical stare at the August results could well produce a feeling of disgruntlement; three losses from four isn’t easy to dress up. But, the rather meek exit from the League Cup aside which featured seven changes to the starting line-up, it’s feeling somewhat hopeful that we may be finding the means to compete on […]
FOREST AWAY: Manchester United, Saturday 26th August – Fan Guide
A new hope… So, as we take our tentative steps on the start of our (hopefully not as difficult) second season back in the Premier League, we can only hope that we can stride forward on our away days with a bit more of a stagger rather than a stumble. Last year we were all […]
FOREST AWAY: Arsenal, Saturday 12th August – Fan Guide
I confess that I find myself enjoying the long, blank summer weekends more and more. I don’t think it’s anything to do with growing tired of Forest; more that it’s ruddy exhausting with what we go through. One can only dance through the streets around Selhurst Park for so long, you know! We do at […]
FOREST AWAY: Crystal Palace, Sunday 28th May – Fan Guide
It’s been nice to reminisce over the last few days. The proverbial putting the feet up and smiling through what has been a tough but rewarding campaign. I can even look back at Brentford away now without wincing too hard. Everything; every point and every kick in the teeth, was steering us towards a joyous […]
FOREST AWAY: Chelsea, Saturday 13th May – Fan Guide
There’s an underlying excitement to all this but really, it’s pretty damn awful, isn’t it? Full-time at Southampton was greeted with a mixture of glee and widespread relief after an agonising final stage of the game. It’s wonderful that we have put ourselves in with a real fighting chance, how this weekend we could be […]
