Stoking up August angst about the oldest football league club

As I write this, Nottingham Forest are (almost certainly) the oldest club in the English Football League. Less certain, in fact, is whether I care. Since the end of last (2018-19) season, I've been through the most 'traumatic' time of my 45 years as a Forest fan. Yes, I know using the term 'traumatic' is a bit of a stretch here. But I insist, relative to the usual emotional roller coaster you typically experience as a fan of any club - these last few months have been off the scale for me. The callous sacking of my football hero, Martin O'Neill, after just over five months in the job - a manager who, I still maintain, has the best record of any from the UK - really shook and disgusted me. His time as a Forest legend has been one of the key subjects of these pages and although I had never intended focusing much on current events, I started to do so towards the back of last season only because of Martin's return. Duncan McKenzie is the main reason I became a Fo...

Stan Bowles fills the Brian Clough Stand

40 years ago, the Brian Clough Stand was nearing completion and, despite not yet having a roof, people started sitting in the vast array of seats of its upper tier. It wasn't called "The Brian Clough Stand" then, of course. Someone, bizarrely, thought "The Executive Stand" was appropriate. It would seem a perverse name, even in today's billionaire infused world of football, never mind in those dark days at the end of the 1970s, as Britain was only just throwing off its last flirtation with socialism. Filling the seats was something we had never really questioned, as Clough and Taylor had brought so much success to Nottingham in the last two years. The City Ground had attracted several 40,000+ attendances during this era, so getting 32,000 or so once the City Ground capacity was reduced,  would surely be no problem. However, Forest's league form seemed to suddenly become very fragile as the construction of the stand neared its completion. Most alarmingl...

Forest Go Breaking Watford, Herts.

40 Years is a long long time. Here, touching back, brings us round again to find when Forest took a big step towards returning to returning to Wembley to defend the League Cup that they had won the season before (when they were victorious  over the mighty, mighty Liverpool in a replay at Old Trafford) by eliminating a swarm of ascendant hornets. (That's Watford, to those not acquainted with their nickname.) In this post, I'll give a brief outline of Watford Football Club's bizarre chameleon-like (but, it has to be said, remarkably unsuccessful) history before doing a big catch up with what had happened in the world of football in the weeks between Forest beating Brighton in the quarter finals back at the start of December, and this game. The most famous Watford fan, of course, is Reg Dwight. Y'know... Elton John - so I'll do a bit on him as well, interweaving his career into my life via my dear sister who, as far as I was aware, discovered him, and some of his f...
