Went to the match last night -not a bad game but really there was no fight in the forest team and they look resigned to going down.  They dont defend from the front and play a similar style to the old wimbledon.

Coventrys ground is getting old but when they sang the noise really travelled! Only other observations were Cummings/colemans (cant remember) is a classy player with a sweat left foot and their keeper gerrard could well leave for a club possibly in the premiership.  Have a feeling their lads will put in a good show at teh CGH next year, seemed a fair few of them.

But in all the games ive been to the fans did something ive never seen - sing abuse at their own team at the end and I mean abuse.

Nottingham Forest v Sheffield Wednesday in the third tier of the English league.  You'd never have believed that a few years ago.  Just hope Wednesday don't go up.

I went to Highfield Road for our premiership match, Andy Mutch equaliser was it?  Thought it was fairly tidy back then.  Can imagine how it'd look a bit on the ropey side nowadays though.

Yes it was, if my memory serves me right, it wasn't scheduled to be on Sky, but the Wednesday match that was due to be shown was postponed early in the day.  So Sky came down to Covvie to show us snatch a draw.

New ground looks amazing.

Yeah I saw that game on Sky.

I seem to remember that my Dad wasn't too well that day, so we didn't go, but it was on Sky so we were reasonably happy about it.

Only thing was they lost the transmition 3 minutes before the end while we were 1-0 down.

Richard Keys and his gang were all talking about a Cov win, when all of a sudden in a "news just in fashion" Keys told us of Andy Mutch's equaliser.

Great days, great days.

Well, the goal was televised, but only after they had told us we'd scored.

I think it was about 5 minutes late, good goal I think.  Some sort of bicycle/scissor kick effort?
