It's the return of the 1865 Women's Football Show, with reflections on the last three games in league and cup action as the Reds maintain their unbeaten start to the season and also got back amongst the goals against Halifax. Rich is joined by Adam to reflect upon these games, as well as the nominations for Mel Johnson and Carly Davies. Plus, we sh…

It was a game that had everything except a winner: superb saves, yellow cards, a sending off, a brawl and a magnificent and mature performance by the Reds to keep Chelsea at bay with a man disadvantage for 25 minutes. Man of the match Matz Sels earned the point although Jota Silva could have won it at the death. Rich Ferraro is joined by George Edw…

Depending on your point of view, this was either a reality check or a frustrating defeat borne out of poor tactics and team selection - although both perspectives are possible. Raul Jimenez's penalty after a VAR check for Murillo's foul on Pereira was not evened out as the ref and VAR decided that Calvin Bassey had not brought down Anthony Elanga. …

It's the return of the Friday 5, 1865's round up of the top news stories involving Nottingham Forest. This week: 1 Forest are interesting 2 Spicy draw at Brighton 3 Murillo interest 4 Sangare injury 5 Morgan and Nuno in trouble The Maradona of the Midlands is joined by Baz to discuss all of the above as well as previewing the Reds' forthcoming fixt…

It's the return of our Women's Football Show! This week, Adam reports on Forest's 4-0 win away at Hull, where a brace apiece from Mel Johnson and CHarlie Wellings kept the Reds at the top of the table. This week's guest is Ray Mundo Futbol, talking about why it is important for the Reds to have a professional women's team, and his journey learning …

It finished 2-2 but that only told part of the story, as we saw a strong first half by the Reds get thrown out of the windown just before the break. Nuno then made three half-time changes before bringing on Ramon Sosa, and the Paraguayan finished Jota's run and pass to get an equaliser. Finally, Morgan Gibbs-White's second yellow card brought contr…

Thanks a lot for joining us Nat, and all the best for the rest of the season - COME ON YOU REDS! Presented by Statman Ad…

Forest haven't won at Anfield since 1969 - until this weekend. A masterclass of tactics, team selection and substitutions, as well as some seriously hard work by all 16 players on the day, saw the original Reds beat their Scouse counterparts. Callum Hudson-Odoi's winning strike caught the eye, but every single player can hold their head high, and t…

Despite the international break, it's been another busy week at the City Ground, and the Friday 5 is here to bring you the big stories: 1 England's MGW 2 Boly injury 3 City Ground containers 4 Elanga happy 5 Liverpool preview + Kick It Out Presented by Steven Toplis, with the Maradona of the Midlands.

We'll be back with your Friday 5 ne…

The international break always gives us a chance to reflect upon the Reds' progress, but this time it is with a litttle extra spice, with Forest enjoying an unbeaten start to the season, and Morgan Gibbs-White becoming the first Red to don the Three Lions this century. In addition, we talk about the transfer window, other Forest players on internat…

And a league table update Thoughts on the status of the women's team and how it can attract new fans Rich Ferraro presents and is joined by Emilka, who is a regular, if usually uncredit…

Five points from the first nine for unbeaten Nottingham Forest, but could it have been more against Wolves? Two early goals ensured that it was honours even, with Chris Wood's header quickly cancelled out by Jean-Ricner Bellegarde's screamer. Wood had a second half effort ruled out for offside, and both teams had penalty claims, but in the end sett…

It's transfer deadline day, but before we all anxiously press refresh on our social media feeds, here is a roundup of this week's news from the City Ground: Gibbs-White called up by England Carlos Miguel family tragedy Forest exit Carabao Cup Search for a striker Wolves preview Before any of that, Statman Adam gives us a match report from Forest Wo…

It was an early away win for Nottingham Forest, resplendent in their new sky blue kit, away at newly-promoted Southampton. It was a well-deserved victory and frankly the margin of victory should have been greater against a team who have earned the title of "Possession FC". George Edwards and Tom Newton report back from St Mary's, and we are also jo…

It was an opening day draw for the Reds against bogey team Bournemouth, as the visitors scored a late equaliser that was "preventable" according to both Nuno and pretty much every Forest supporter. Chris Wood's opening goal came midway through the first half, but the game had already been overshadowed by a serious ankle injury to Danilo, who needed…

It's the return of the Friday 5, our weekly news roundup where we bring you the latest stories from the City Ground. This week's top stories: 1. City Ground changes 2. Roman Sosa 3.

For the 74th and final time this season, we get together to talk about all things Nottingham Forest. In this episode: The heroes and villains of the season The ground, the strategy, Head Coaches and players Referees, PSR, PGMOL, Clattenburg and all that Rich Ferraro is joined in the studio by Tom Newton and Steven Toplis, and we also hear from Elli…

Looking at the table after the match, well it was easy wasn't it? Forest ended up six points clear of the drop zone, despite the PSR deduction, and hopefully this game will have helped to lay the ghost of Stoke to rest. Chris Wood also got back in form, sometimes strikers just need to play against their former clubs. Steven Toplis is joined by Tom …

As we head into the last weekend of the season, with Forest "all but safe", it's time for our weekly roundup of news from the City Ground: City Ground That Marinakis interview New scout Players in and out Hudson-Odoi Presented by George Edwards and the Maradona of the Midlands, who also discuss a bonus story about clubs voting on VAR, and whether G…

On a day when Forest were confirmed as "all but safe", the Reds failed to rubber stamp their Premier League status as they conceded two late goals to money bags Chelsea. In truth, Forest didn't look like a worse team than their wealthy counterparts, until the subs were made, which strengthened the visitors and weakened the hosts. Steven Toplis is j…

This week's Friday 5 comes at the end of another week of potential PR disasters for the Reds: PSR points deduction upheld Forest moving to Toton? Clattenburg leaves Forest fancy a Costa? Yates scores in all five divisions The news is brought to you by Jamie Martin, and the discussion is hosted by Steven Toplis, with a return to podcasting duties by…

A much-needed three points, as despite scoring first through ex-Red Ben Brereton Diaz, the Blades proved how bad they are at defending, allowing Callum Hudson-Odoi to score two of his trademark goals, sandwiching skipper Ryan Yates' first Premier League goal. The Maradona of the Midlands is joined by George Edwards, as our match reporters recover f…

It's the 1865 Friday Five, our weekly roundup of Nottingham Forest and analysis. This week's top stories: VAR panel Neco Williams injured Ryan Yates honoured Jonathan Panzo loan Forest to be fined for ref reaction? As usual, stories are brought to you by our newshound Jamie Martin, and the show is hosted by George Edwards with analysis from The Mar…

A creditable performance, but Forest missed their chances and the champions took theirs. Goals by Gvardiol and Haaland saw the points go to Manchester, but the general consensus was that the Reds did ok. The real question is whether thay can produce the goods in the last three games of the season? Presented by Steven Toplis with Baz, and the view f…

As predicted, it has been one heck of a week for Forest fans, with the defeat at Goodison followed by THAT tweet, and the ensuing fallout. Jamie Martin brings us the latest: Post-match tweet Forest request VAR audio Legal action against Gary Neville? Clattenburg contract extension? Stuart Attwell: Luton fan Rich Ferraro is joined by the Maradona of…

The key fact is that Forest lost a relegation six-pointer, to two long range goals. The underlying facts are that there were three clear penalty shouts waved away, including (at least) one where the ref clearly got it wrong but VAR chose not to correct him. The headlines go to the club's tweet on the full-time whistle, which accuses PGMOL of bias a…

It's our weekly news roundup, the Friday Five, in which we bring you the top five stories coming from the City Ground this week. It has been a bumper and emotional week for fans, and in this bumper episode we discuss the following: Season card prices and PR gaffes Safe standing Forza Garibaldi withdraw Man City display Wolves fans' misogynistic cha…

It definitely felt like two points dropped, despite the Reds actually scoring from a corner, and fighting back from conceding a poor goal to take the lead. The old Achilles heel of set pieces hit us again as the defence failed to defend and the keeper could have done more. In the end, it was honours even and no-one was really happy. Steven Toplis p…

It's the 1865 Friday Five, our weekly roundup of the latest Nottingham Forest stories: Everton PSR deduction Joe Kinnear Semi-automated offside Neco POTM again B Team success (Bonus story) Forest's new season card waiting list The stories are brought to you by George Edwards at the 1865 news desk, and discussed by Rich Ferraro and Ellie Molloson, a…

In reality, the best team won, although it was a match that seemed to hang on a series of incidents: Murillo's own goal, Chris Wood's miss, Maddison's punch and Spurs' half-time subs. After a slow start, Forest actually played quite well for much of the first half, but the natural order was restored in the second period. Rich Ferraro and George Edw…

It's the latest edition of the Friday Five, in which Jamie Martin brings us the big news stories coming from the City Ground this week: Fulham win Wood strike rate Aina contract Bruno incoming? Praise for MGW Rich Ferraro and The Maradona Of The Midlands discuss these stories as well as the latest on PSR and previewing the Tottenham match - we will…

45 minutes of heaven, followed by 45 minutes of hell - however, Forest scored three goals in the first period and withstood the Fulham offensive in the second half, to earn a welcome three points and make up for the points deducted due to the PSR breach. The first half was probably the best we have seen from the Reds, with good goals from Hudson-Od…

A draw wasn't the result that we wanted, but was enough to pull the Reds out of the relegation zone on goal difference. It could have been so much worse as a tepid first half performance drew the ire of the fans, but the introduction of Gio Reyna on 60 minutes brought instant dividends, as the young American fed Morgan Gibbs-White, who in turn play…

At the end of a tempestuous week for Nottingham Forest Football Club, we take some time to reflect upon the four point deduction imposed by an independent commission and what impact it could have on the Reds' season, and indeed for the wider world of football (especially as Leicester are in trouble and Everton await their next punishment). Should F…

It's been a big week for Nottingham Forest Football Club, as they digest the four point deduction handed down for breaching profit and sustainability regulations. We will have a special show at the weekend to discuss this in more depth, but in the meantime, here are this week's top five stories: Forest receive PSR points deduction Injury updates: T…

It was so near and yet so far for the Reds, as despite having the best chances, they only scored one goal, before the inevitable sucker punch when Luke Berry scored from (you guessed it) a set piece for Luton. Some fans were angry at the inability to take chances and also the substitutions made by Nuno, which left Forest with five at the back and n…

Another disappointing result as Forest had chances, but failed to take them. The truth is, for all the grumbling about the referee not sending of Jakub Moder, the Reds could have played all day and not scored. George Edwards is joined by Adam and Tom Newton to discuss the game and the ref, and also Nuno's team selection and substitutions, which rai…
