All by myself! Don't wanna be all by myself anymore! :evil:

Critical questions,.... will Buzzer and Fallon start, who else has the flu.  Will King say something new during the post match interview.  Will it be a vote of confidence on Tuesday if we lose 3:0.  It's butterfly in the tummy time.

Buzzer, and Fallon, start.

Salut !

Lovely day here, sounds like its piddling down over there.  Missed the team, did thorpe get dropped for Fallon ?

Allez les mecs !

glory glory rory fallon !

hurrah :D

We're only winning 1-0???????

King out!!!!!!!!!!

Ed Hadwin just said "I keep calling Forest Sheffield Wednesday - It must be because of their yellow away shirts"

Sheffield Wednesday are famous for their yellow shirts aren't they? :shock:

stupid forest   :x

C'mon, keep the info going ! Am sat here with a slow running PC hanging on your every post.

I assume that it was Fallon who scored ?

NMH

Bugger ! You didn't tell me it was 1-1 !

NMH

fallon scored.

then some forest player equalised

its half time now and 1-1

we're playing well apparently - woohoo!

Reading the 'live text' on the BBC site it looks like its all Forest.

NMH

Im listening t'radio.  That BBC thing seems a bit slow...

Hahahahahahahahahahahahah!

City 2-0 down.  They've not even scored yet this season.  So much for Stewart and Bridges! :mrgreen:

I get the feeling we're going to lose this :|

I reckon we'll win 2-1  :nod:

...and smith !

Sounds like we are geting after them quite nicely at the moment, if we score I think we could open the floodgates, but if not, worry about getting hit on the break.

Anyway, happy thoughts and all that, sure we'll win !

Roberts and Shakes on for Cureton and Summerbee

GOAL!!!!!! :D

Nice one, pressure from roberts and shakes as soon as they came on - lead to a corner, which roberts took and o'hanlon headed in, although think it will be given as an own goal.

Woo-Hoo !

NMH

forest down to 10 men - one of their's got injured, but they have already used all their subs.  Only a few mins left...Come on lads !

Hurrah !!!  first win of many, lets hope !

Good win, lets hope this kickstarts our season! :mrgreen:

 :beers:  :beers:

Can't believe how casually some of you are treating this result. It is so much better than just a good result. I am absolutely ecstatic! First time we have ever beaten Forest. The season is very much back on track, 3 points from 3 very tough games is not too bad at all. King got everything spot on today too.

A great momemt in our history.  :beers:  :beers:  :beers:  :beers:   :guinness:  :guinness:  :guinness:  :guinness:    :D  :D  :D  :D  :D  :advercool:  :advercool:  :advercool:  :advercool:

Whalley was class and Collins did very well too.

And city are now bottom without scoring a single goal so far this season after the huge amount they've spent.:Ride On Fatbury's Lovestick:  :ha:

It showed that when Shakes and Roberts came on we looked so much more dangerous going forward!, Shakes put a wicked ball across the box which lead to the corner from which we scored. Roberts also showed signs that he is back to his best, Fallon was very good even when he lost the ball he did everything he could to get it back. :beers:

That right back was the worst player Ive ever seen. He annoyed me almost as much as Duke would have.

I'm as happy as pig in shit.....been waiting near on 40 years to beat these, since going to Villa Park with 20,000 other Townies for a 5th round replay.

fallon - superb. just, superb.

the whole team seemed much, much more relaxed that tuesday. less mistakes, winning the ball more, keeping the ball more, im happy happy happy.

Miss Spacey knows her stuff.  :D

King did very well with his tactics. 2-1 is a good score. I'm happy.

Superb result, good performance, stupid shit eating grin all over my face since 4:50  :D

Pleased that we won, but put it in perspective. Before the season started I was reading stuff about how poor Forest were and that it was likely that they were going to be in a relegation battle again this year.

Much too early to say which teams are good and bad yet. Still, 3 points is 3 points. Would have liked to have been on 6 or 7pts at this stage though with an unbeaten home record intact.

NMH

3 points, and 4 goals scored, is better than 1 point, and no goals scored...

Look at their team though, their bench is just as scary  :shock:

Forest are still the bookies favourites to win League One

Indeed. What an improvement from Fallon.

Collins though looked crap again.

Great result though.

Also to put in perspective, Forest were just a few years ago arguably the best team in the world and they are a team we had never beaten before despite playing 17 times. To finally beat them is a great achievement, especially as they have a very expensive multi-million pound team and are considered to be one of the favourites for promotion.

I find a lot of people tend to be quite happy if we win and very disappointed and angry if we lose, whilst I'm extremely happy if we win but if we lose, I'm not devastated unless it's a pivotal game, we can't expect to win every game so I love it when we do win.

The crowd was a bit disappointing, and I think that Shakes should definetely have started with Roberts partnering Fallon.

Fantastic.
