The reality of playing European football is that the games come quick and fast. The players and most of the fans are back from Seville and the turnaround for the next match is in full swing. That next match is of course the visit of Sunderland to the City Ground for the 5.30pm kick off on Saturday evening when Ange Postecoglou finally gets to experience his first home match in charge of The Reds! Winless after 4 games in charge, i...

For two full days social media was awash with pictures of thousands of Nottingham Forest fans en route to Seville, congregating in their hundreds in the watering holes of the beautiful Spanish city, dancing, laughing, singing and getting ready for the clubs biggest night in 30 years. The party was in full swing and some might be forgiven for forgetting that the small matter of the actual 90 minutes of football still needed to navi...

In the next hour we’re gonna probably get excited and a bit carried away as we preview Forest’s first trip into Europe since the 1995/96 season that saw the Reds go out in the quarter finals of the then UEFA cup to Jurgen Klinnsman’s Bayern Munich. We never imagined it would take so long to return to European competition but now we’re dreaming and riding the wave as Forest look to get off the mark against Spanish side, Real Betis. ...

Nottingham Forest come away from Turf more with a point when, with the chances they had, it possibly should have been three. A good goalkeeping display by the home team’s shot-stopper and a moment of sloppy play in the Forest defence meant it was a goal apiece, and whilst that frustrated many Reds fans we are now mulling over what have we learned and what evidence we can see of Ange’s principles and style of play being embedded in ...

10 changes, sloppy passing, moments of magic, chances galore missed and a capitulation right out of the Nottingham Forest playbook. After building up a 2-0 lead in the Carabao Cup against Championship side Swansea, and missing a host of excellent chances to put the game to bed was it Ange-ball that is to blame for losing the game or do we need to look at the complacency of the players…? Maybe it’s a bit of both. With plenty to lo...

Ange Postecoglou says we will see his style and principles implemented into the Nottingham Forest team that will take to the pitch in south Wales tomorrow night for the 3rd round Carabao Cup tie against Swansea. Will we see plenty of changes in personnel or will Ange see this as the perfect game to play his strongest eleven to get them on his wavelength and playing his brand of football? Hosts Greg Oram & Richard Spray are joined ...

Ange Postecoglou took the reigns for the game at Arsenal and all eyes were on The Emirates for his first game in charge. But when you’ve only been in post for a few days and had just one training session with your full squad it was probablyalways going to be too much to ask for anything other than what we got… The truth is the real work can and will only kick into gear from now on and as Ange says – he doesn’t have months or weeks ...

It was just a week ago that we presented a special episode focussed on the full-back department at Nottingham Forest where we took a look at all the key individuals and their individual qualities. We discussed the need for depth and we said that if we were to pick up any injuries that the cover needed to be strong enough to carry us through on all fronts. Sure enough, six days later, and that day has come… The news broke today tha...

The world of football is in the modern era not only revolves around what happens on the pitch but also very much what happens in the boardroom. The rules around the amount clubs can spend (and lose) these days is such a minefield that if you’re not careful you could end up with a points deduction…. PSR is not a diagnosed medical condition but as you all know is the dreaded acronym we all try to wrap our heads around every transfer ...

It’s all change at Nottingham Forest and Ange Postecoglou hasn’t shirked the immediate challenge of facing a trip to Arsenal for his first game in charge. He could have said, I’ll take the job… but appoint me on Sunday…. But no, he’s backed himself like he always seems to, and has taken the reigns with immediate effect.. So it will be his team selection at The Emirates. It will be Big Ange in the dug-out and all of us must now get ...

Deadline day wouldn’t be complete without Nottingham Forest dipping their toe back in again to either try to resurrect a deal that’s been in the offing for a while or lookingto do a late deal for a whole new player that has appeared out of nowhere. And today Forest of course did both.. The window slammed shut (it never closes in any other way of course) just about an hour ago and we’re still waiting on final confirmation on what di...

The capitulation to rival several of the Reds’ famous self-destruction moment...
