Guest Forest for life Posted February 23, 2006 Report Share Posted February 23, 2006 Well it certainly isnt far north enough to be termed the 'west'. Bristol's certainly more of a football graveyard than the east midlands is mate.

Guest Forest for life Posted February 23, 2006 Report Share Posted February 23, 2006 I remember you had a decent go with Danny Wilson and then you sacked him for finishing third and it went wrong from there. Both our Chairman's have made bad managerial decisions it seems. It's certainly the reason we're in this mess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest revkev Posted February 23, 2006 Report Share Posted February 23, 2006 Are you sure? You didn't influence the chairman?No, I thought that 3rd. wasn't a bd finish, although the Playoff final display was a sacking offence in its own right. The team selection involved a blindfold and a pin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abcdefg Posted February 23, 2006 Report Share Posted February 23, 2006 It can't get any worse for us forest fans mate. Humiliation at Yeovil, Woking, Colchester, MK Dons, S****horpe, Oldham. The list is endless but the fact is we have been utter crap this season megson or not.I've always found City fans to be full of banter and no doubt we will get the ever present 'your not famous anymore' jibes which we are used to. Forest and City are probably the two biggest clubs in the division and it would be great to both go up automatically next season. The fact remains though we are the biggest club in the east midlands .90% of Forest fans think they are a "sleeping giant". The arrogance of you lot makes me laugh. Both Leicester and Derby are currently bigger than Forest, plus you are lucky to still have a ground after shafting the council for millions and refusing a repayment schedule.Before you say anything, I lived and worked in Nottingham for 10 years.

Guest Forest for life Posted February 23, 2006 Report Share Posted February 23, 2006 That's because we have the stadium, fanbase and resources to suggest we are a sleeping giant. We have come to the end of the repayment schedule now and have no debt. We've had the arrogance thing all season from other fans so i wouldn't expect that to change now. We've been fairly trounced away at many places all season and have still been selling out away and our attendances, at home we are averaging over 19,000. Pretty good for a club in decline playing the worst, negative football you will ever see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Cary Grant supported City Posted February 23, 2006 Report Share Posted February 23, 2006 Chatting to some Forest Fan's in Hathern last night, and they said they'll be bringing loads down, especially if they get to wear their Red strip and we wear our Baby Poo coloured one!!.

Guest Forest for life Posted February 23, 2006 Report Share Posted February 23, 2006 Yeah having signed Tyson and Grant Holt the optimism went up but Megson continued to insist on hoofing it from the back four and playing players out of position. Now he's gone Barlow has the players more relaxed and tells them to go out and play rather than hoof, hoof and hoof which is probably why we won against Vale on Saturday. Players like Commons haven't been consistent enough either which hasn't helped. We're all looking forward to sitting under a roof in a decent away stadium anyway which makes a change. We need to beat your mates from Swindon on Saturday though first to keep the confidence up. Yeah we need to wear red shirts and white shorts ideally. We never play well in either the ill fated 'Brazil!' kit or with black shorts which could be a problem when we visit Bristol as i suspect we will be in the Brazil kit which we still haven't won in.

Guest Forest for life Posted February 23, 2006 Report Share Posted February 23, 2006 Is he Swindon's star man?!!! Secretly most Forest fans don't like to see Notts where they are despite the fact they are bitter and insulting towards us. I wouldn't call them our brothers but Notts are part of Nottingham too and we can accept that. We cheer when its announced that they have won on the PA at the City Ground, probably something you wouldn't ever do for Rovers? Derby are who we hate not Notts.

Guest Forest for life Posted February 23, 2006 Report Share Posted February 23, 2006 I am indeed. I'm normally over on Forestforums.co.uk so if you guys fancy banter with my fellow trees go ahead! Its good to meet some fellow fans of proper league football. In fact this season has really opened my eyes in terms of how a 2-0 away win at Port Vale can seem like winning the cup!

How much did we spend ? Non spending City v Spending Forest, we shall see who has the better TEAM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Forest for life Posted February 24, 2006 Report Share Posted February 24, 2006 If we still had Megson I would go maybe 3-1 to you guys but since he's gone we will try and play the ball more on the floor which is why I can see us getting a few if our midfield perform which isnt always often. Gez (keeper) is out which is a big blow as he has been outstanding this season. Pedersen (2nd choice) has made a few fluffs in his short time here so I can see us leaking a few too. If Commons performs especially we'll make a few chances. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
