Yeovil 3-1 Forest laughing

by GSC Sat 26 Oct 2013, 7:32 pm

****ing Yeovil. Was at work so can't comment really on the game.

Hopefully a wake up call, performances have really slipped recently

by GSC Thu 31 Oct 2013, 5:45 pm

Signed David Vaughan on loan for some reason

by Shot 21 LCFC Mon 04 Nov 2013, 11:09 am

Predictions for Saturday?

by NickisBHAFC Mon 04 Nov 2013, 1:32 pm

Well Forest have lost twice against poor opposition and even Stephen Dobbie scored against them that says it all!, Leicester on the other hand just outclassed a very good side in Watford, so my prediction of who will win goes too ...

Nottingham Forest, because that is football and this is the Championship. Things like this happen all the time!

by GSC Sun 10 Nov 2013, 11:05 am

Good win.

Rode our luck in the first half, but when you go to teams like Leicester in this league you have to. Certainly we found that luck and clinical edge we've been missing lately. 2 well worked moves for both goals mind you.

2nd half we did a pretty professional job. Bar the penalty (which they made a meal of) they didn't really create much.

Hobbs looks a great signing, great to see Lascelles and Paterson get game time

by Shot 21 LCFC Sun 10 Nov 2013, 2:57 pm

Turned the radio off the moment Nugent missed his first ever penalty. When that happens you know you've lost the game...

by GSC Mon 25 Nov 2013, 12:39 pm

Cohens done his knee again, season over Sad

Defensive injuries mounting up. On the bright side Lascelles gets to play

by NickisBHAFC Mon 25 Nov 2013, 3:25 pm

Will this mean a recall for Dan Harding?

by GSC Mon 25 Nov 2013, 4:02 pm

He's played decently in reserve to be fair to him. They're looking at loan options, and Lichaj can play LB

by NickisBHAFC Mon 25 Nov 2013, 5:51 pm

When he faces Buckley, it's worth the admission fee alone to see the comedy of a rubbish full back trying to mark a quick winger.

by Shot 21 LCFC Tue 26 Nov 2013, 11:59 am

Shame that free kick hit the crossbar. Had it gone in we would have been top of the league today...

by GSC Tue 26 Nov 2013, 12:19 pm

It's bits of luck like that that mean the difference between losing to Forest and drawing with Forest

by GSC Tue 26 Nov 2013, 7:30 pm

Looking into signing Dorrans for some reason. God knows why.

I'd see if we can get Bertrand back again

by GSC Thu 28 Nov 2013, 11:45 am

Tudgay and Miller off to Barnsley and Yeovil on loan

by westisbest Thu 28 Nov 2013, 1:00 pm

How is Lichaj doing?
Was he injured for a couple of games?

by GSC Sat 07 Dec 2013, 4:58 pm

The kind of win you love when you're going through a rough patch, scrappy 1-0 vs Wednesday.

by Fernando Sun 22 Dec 2013, 12:06 am

Well Henderson got screwed for you guys, Wasn't a bad tackle then he hugged him.

by NickisBHAFC Sun 22 Dec 2013, 1:09 pm

Justice.

by Hibbz Fri 27 Dec 2013, 7:30 pm

Watched a whole Forest match for the first time in a couple of years last night. The application from the players was a delight to see compared to the last time I watched but the standard........... Reid was head and shoulders above the rest in terms of talent and people tell me the standard of the Championship is improving.

Amused me greatly when one of the commentators described QPR as having a "Premiership standard" squad. They were absolute cr@p with a team (and bench) of has beens and never weres.

by GSC Fri 27 Dec 2013, 8:30 pm

He might make enemies with everyone but can't deny Billy has the Mourinho touch of binding a team together.
QPR never looked interested really. Flip side of having players like Kranjcar playing in this league I guess

by Hibbz Fri 27 Dec 2013, 9:11 pm

Yeah Billy may be an irritant but the players seem to like and try for him. I still maintain a sense of attachment to Reid as he was amongst the last team I really supported long with the likes of Dawson, marvellous Marlon and my favourite Gareth Williams.

I really am getting old.

by NickisBHAFC Sat 28 Dec 2013, 12:04 am

I can't stand Davies, think the bloke is a complete Mr Winklechops. He also does tend to bottle big games. Still think he is a class Championship manager though.

With Forest squad they should easily be getting promoted.

by Shot 21 LCFC Sat 28 Dec 2013, 4:04 pm

Thanks for helping us stay top of the league

by GSC Sun 29 Dec 2013, 3:28 pm

Greg Halford #prolific

by GSC Sun 29 Dec 2013, 5:02 pm

Did our very best to throw it away, but Matt Derbyshire of all people with a ping after we dominated.

by **VDT** Tue 07 Jan 2014, 1:24 pm

David Johnson is coming on the V2 Football Podcast on 23rd Januray 2013

by GSC Thu 09 Jan 2014, 4:06 pm

Seems as though Hull have succeeded in squeezing us for more money for Hobbs

by Shot 21 LCFC Thu 09 Jan 2014, 4:19 pm

He is worth it. Future captain if he isnt already for you.

by GSC Thu 09 Jan 2014, 4:32 pm

He is. Been a rock so far. Instrumental in bringing Lascelles through

by sodhat Fri 10 Jan 2014, 12:17 pm

Billy Davies supposedly tops the list of managers to replace Sam if he is removed...

by GSC Fri 10 Jan 2014, 1:33 pm

I doubt he'd go. He's got more dollar here and control of the club

by westisbest Fri 10 Jan 2014, 1:44 pm

Is Andy Reid playing some of the best football of his career?

Evertime I see Forest play he has a corker.

Ok so people will say its the championship, but he could still do a fine job in the prem.

For what we could get, would'nt mind seeing Reid in the claret & blue.

by sodhat Fri 10 Jan 2014, 2:31 pm

I doubt he'd go too, but I wondered why the papers put it in at all. They must have some sort of inkling that it's possible. But I have no idea why he'd come to us in free-fall at the moment.

by GSC Fri 10 Jan 2014, 2:51 pm

Reid just signed a new contract. Been outstanding this season

by sodhat Fri 10 Jan 2014, 2:58 pm

What's he on now, 40 pies a week?

by NickisBHAFC Fri 10 Jan 2014, 10:35 pm

by GSC Fri 17 Jan 2014, 2:15 pm

Reid signed up for 2 more years, Hobbs signed permanantly is a good window. Suspect they'll push through David Vaughan and chase a striker.

Sorry, meant the claret and blue of Villa.

Despite Reid's weight over the years he has still been quality.

by GSC Fri 17 Jan 2014, 2:36 pm

Soddys talking about Billy Davies west thumbsup

by GSC Sat 18 Jan 2014, 5:22 pm

Good win, good performance to boot. Worried with Hobbs and Lascelles missing the game, but Halford and Collins did a reasonable job, with Rhodes on the bench.

Unbeaten in 10, still need a forward though

by GSC Mon 20 Jan 2014, 5:45 pm

Natalie Jackson, Billy's mate says we're close to a loan deal for Danny Graham

by GSC Fri 24 Jan 2014, 4:54 pm

Rafik Djebbour signed from Olympiakos.

Meanwhile Hull are still dicking about over Hobbs.

by Kay Fabe Wed 29 Jan 2014, 11:17 am

Forest had a bid of £550,000 which could potentially hot £900k rejected from The Rangers for their Lee Wallace, word coming out of Ibrox is they're holding out for £1.4m but will likely do a deal for closer to £1m so long as the cash is paid up front.

by GSC Wed 29 Jan 2014, 11:54 am

We couldn't close a window right now, let alone a deal

by Shot 21 LCFC Wed 29 Jan 2014, 12:36 pm

Interesting reports coming from Sky Sports that we have also entered the race to bring Jack Hobbs back to the King Power Stadium. Nigel Pearson signed him for us and also took him to Hull, so he may chose to join him again.

by GSC Wed 29 Jan 2014, 1:12 pm

That's because Jack Hobbs wants 20k+ a week
