    Nottingham Forest (A) - Sat 27th Dec, 12:30 | PL | Pre-Match Thread

    I remember that. It was a good rousing number: "We hate Nottingham Forest We hate Liverpool too. We hate Man United But Cty we love you." Sung to the tune of Land of Hope and Glory. It fell out of favour in the later 1980s as Fotrest's fortunes declined. Not really 1977 as they were just...
