Should be a good game this, they’re on decent form and like to attack, which should suit us.
Not been to the City Ground since 1993 (I think) when Flitcroft scored a screamer at the end, won 2-0 I think.

He can't have got too many for us! Last time I went we won 2:0 in the mid 80s.Great day out and good place for a piss up from memory (mind you , you had to make most places a good place for a piss up watching City in years gone by didn't you!) The only time I've been to Nottingham since was one year when I stayed after going to Donington .
For the City game I went with a Forest fan and a Liverpool fan . As I seem to remember they'd only seen their 'teams' about once between them and as I went a fair bit we made the 'democratic decision' of going in the away section.
There were about 15, 000 there apparently and Clive Wilson and Paul Simpson scored for us (just looked both those bits up!)
They were both good players from a time when we had quite a few that weren't too good (being polite here). Forest for their part had the hugely talented Nigel Clough and Gary Birtles playing....
Thinking of one of the Rags all time greats anyone else remember the chorus of 'you're worse than Gary Birtles' from the City fans anytime an opposing striker missed a good chance? Wonder if we actually sang it at the man himself? (I 'm sure we probably did).

There was a time before one of the world cups, '82 or '86 , I can;t remember which, when we played an Engalnd XI warmp-up game at Maine Rd. I remember
Trevor Brooking attempting to play CF
 
Looking forward to this, think the last time for me here was the 1-3. Remember the Goat lobbing the keeper and there may have been a fcuk up for another one of our goals with their keeper kicking the ball out?
 
Only been once, 1st December 1993, 0-0 shite game and my uncles car window got put through so we froze our nuts off on the way home!
 
Last time i went was approx 1995. Last game of the season.
They won 1-0 to qualify for europ with frank clarke as manager. Remember him?

I got Smacked outside from behind, cheap shot cunts.
It was kicking off all the way back to the train station.

We were staying over for the night so just stayed in our hotel til all the blues had fucked off home
