Am looking forward to this. Recent visits have been less than good and results poor. I have experienced a run of defeats, seen some sending offs, witnessed Andy Reid given free rein to shoot from the edge of the penalty area regualrly, argued with a fellow 'fan' when I was bemoaning yet another line rooted failure by Bogdan, in a bad patch, argued with a 'fan' who when asked if he could sit down by me and by extension a woman behind me, said ' Why should I?- this with no-one standing in front of him and the list goes on. It's one of the worst away areas, has poor stewardship and looks into bright sunlight.
Is this to be the year. We were the defeated visitors when Billy Davies took over. Now they have another manager who apparently has learnt greatly from his previous experiences of management but they have had two big injuries recently and are in erratic form
Surely this is the year!

would really really really love to win. but our away form is poor at the mo, would settle for a draw to keep the points ticking along and away from a releg battle. hopefully a weeks rest and a few bodies back will help. apparently Cravies and Mills are back.
Forest have lost 3 of their last 4 home games, & apart from early season, they've been pretty poor at home. but our away form is nothing to write home about. be interesting to see whether NL thinks we need 3 in mf. we're missing Pratleys energy. a fresher Danns will help as he's normally quite energetic, but being one of our older players seems to struggle with hectic schedules. can he risk Trotter..i see the BN are talking him up again. i wouldn't.

Noticed that Craig Davies has been commended for helping out a couple of senior citizens. So a forward line of Davies, Eidur and Emile to be expected?

So a forward line of Davies, Eidur and Emile to be expected? very good !! . on a serious note, it does make you think about the wisdom of getting 1 or even the 2 of these 35yr+ types with their inability to play 2 games in a week in this very intense league. i'm sure they are a very good influence on the lads . maybe you could carry one, but once we'd done the deal for Eidur, i was even more surprised we still went for EH. & of course it's playing a part in increased rotation too.

I would like to see a win just to shut the forest fans up at work, but wont be surprised by a another loss on the road as we are very poor away from home. I see we have sold 1200 tickets so at least we might make a noise to let freedman know what a wanxer he was for us. See you all there COYWM. Oh 2-2 will do for me.

I want Zac Clough to score a hat trick and Vela to get 3 assists and for them both to go and celebrate in style in front of that odious creature DF. It couldn't happen could it?

ONE NIL to The Wanderers
After the game Freedman will comment "We knew exactly what to expect from Boulton- they have some terrific players and some of the kids, which I brought through the ranks, the likes of Vela and Clough have shown today, the reasons why I gave them the opportunity at Boulton. I was very disappointed with the referee and you could see clearly that we should have had 3 penalties which I believe we would have scored and everyone knows that goals change games, so overall, I'm not massively disappointed with the defeat but I am with the weather, because it was very cold out there today and my players gave everything with their gloves on!!!!!

He must get the classic "We had a great spell in the first half but wasn't able to take our chance". I hope so anyway.
Also Andy's gag, I saw the other day that original, the player once known as The Good Ronaldo who later became "Fat Ronaldo" was trying to find a club, after losing a bit of timber. I hope Lennon didn't see the article but would be weird symmetry to see Ronaldo and Gudjohnson partnership but after Jardel think we've learnt our lesson.

Wretched first half performance slightly rescued by a last minute penalty..
Hopeless defending, non-existent midfield and 2 small forwards challenging for high balls.
Why was Tim Ream at right back? or the right side of a back three.
Twarditz at left back fell and let Burke in to score the first and Antonio ran from in his own half past both Mills and Dervite to score.
It could easily be 5-1.
Danns and Vela are letting midi field opponents run past them into the box.
Mills booked after an awful mis-trap by Feeney. Ream carried off with concussion.
Forest have won numerous headers in our box. We have no defence.
Lets hope the penalty stirs us.

Absolute terrible header from Moxey leaves Lonergan short. Lonergan collides with Blackstock, penalty and Lonergan knocked out and carried off.
Total AMATEUR performance throughout today. 3-1 now

Absolute shambles
Heskey at centre half cocks up a high ball - easy goal
4-1
