Forest 1 Bradford 0

Back to winning ways again, thankfully. At least I can now walk around up here without having to put up with jibes from the Leeds and Bradford supporting lot I work with (to be honest I still get the jobes but would have been ten times as bas if we'd lost).
Not really a very exciting game to be honest, we came out played some really good football, scored in the first half and then stopped!! That was it, didn't press for a second or third to put the game out of reach, jsut sort of sat there and said 'Ok Bradford have a go and see what you can do'. Thankfully it wasn't much at all, a decent side would have got at least one goal. But hey, I shoudln't be too critical, it's 3 points and we stay in touch with those at the top. If we can put a decent run together we'll be right up among them all soon.
Was good to see Johnno get the goal, he's still not the Johnno of old but then again the Johnno of last season would have missed the chance he put away so things are looking up there. We didn't miss Hoult as Gerrard had another superb game in goal and Holt in midfield played extremely well I thought.
One thing I really didn't enjoy was being back in 'A' Block for the day, a few seasons ago this was where I used to be for every match (not cause I'm a complete moron who thinks with his fists, but because it's one of the few places in the ground with any decent atmosphere) anyway we left this area of the ground due to hassle from the idiots they employ as stewards who seem to think it's their duty to ruin every supporters enjoyment of the game. Well there has still been no improvement on their part, people are still being dragged out of the ground for the horrendous crime of standing up at a football match (this ain't the ballet you twats). In fact they even threatened to throw me out, my crime? Complaining to the dickhead in the yellow jacket that while he was stood in front of me arguing with the lads a few rows in front about standing I couldn't see bugger all through him!!
The sooner the club gets rid of these idiots the better, why does this only happen in that section of the ground, if you stand up anywhere else you hardly get any problems at all but in 'A' block the nazi's they employ immediately get agressive towards the customers, is it any wonder the customers get aggresive back?

Welcome Back Me

As the title says I'm back, after almost a month without posting. Unfortunately work commitments meant something had to give and it turned out to be this blog, but thankfully things seemed to have slackened off recently so hopefully I can get back to actually updating this thing on a more regular basis.
So whats happened since my last post, well mainly it's been going downhill really, but hey ho tis the life of a Tricky.
We went and lost 1-0 at Southend which luckily I managed to miss as I was at work at the time. We beat Hartleepool 2-0 at our place, a game we were lucky to come away with all 3 points from really. Hartleepool really were a poor team it's just at times we actually made them look ok. We then went and lost to Woking!!!! in the LDV thingy wotsit cup and topped that off by getting stuffed by the mighty Yeovil 3-0 at the weekend. No disrespect to Yeovil (by all accounts they thoroughly deserved there win and were the better and more professional team) but Forest shopudl not be getting thumped by these sides.
Tis Bradford at home this weekend a game we have to win if only to save me having the piss ripped out of me for the rest of the year at work.
Kris Commons is injured (which means our one and only creative player is injured) Hoult has been recalled by West Brom and Taylor's spat his dummy out and fell out with the fans. All in all a pretty crappy month and I can't wait for it to be over.

Red N White Army 1 Tranmere 0

Five games undefeated now, one point away from the play offs. Everything is suddenly starting to look so much better, we are by no means the finished article but the teams performance is improving and we are starting to get the results, we keep on going like this and automatic promotion is definitely a possibility. Me and Alex (Trent End Talk) disagree on this but I thought in the first half of the game we played some really good passing football. There weren't many goalscoring opportunities created and we seemed lacking in the final third(which I put down to a lack of confidence) but I thought we were passing the ball around well in midfield, which is something we've been missing for a while. Lester had a great game again, getting stuck in and causing problems for the Tranmere defence as did Perchy, for someone so small he certainly gets stuck in. Thommo looked superb coming down the left flank and combined well with Friio at times. Johnno still seems to be lacking his old pace, on a couple of occasions the Johnno of old would have raced away from his defender and slotted the ball home but he almost seemed to hesitate before committing himself giving the defence enough time to deal with the danger. I was surprised whem Lester was taken off as I thought he'd been playing well but that's why Megson's a manger and I have to watch from the stands because the substitution seemed to work, Taylor getting on the ned of a Commons cross to head the ball home. Now everyone knows I'm not a fan of Taylor and I don't think he has anything to add to the team but if he can prove me wrong then I'll be the first to hold my hands up, one goal doesn't make a striker though.
One thing me and Alex do agree on is the Boo boys, we really don't need them down at the ground. I really think some of them are only happy if they can have a moan. But with 5 games undefeated and the team climbing up the table what is there to moan about?? Do us a favour lads and piss off to Derby or Notts instead we don't need you at Forest.
