Biggest game since Wembley and we have sold 544 tickets? Hope that figure needs updating

I think people are simply losing interest and fed up with the club being almost the worst team in the league for the last season and a half. I think if we had won a couple of the games against weeds and Peterborough itd be better but seeing as we threw the points away it just comes across as same old same old rovers despite different manager and players.

We need either a new league and fresh start or to somehow pull off a massive surprise, get rid of the hangers on and start fresh next season with an almost new team

That said I'd be surprised if a few don't go and pay on the gate

Let's not forget that an expensive West Ham fixture looms large on Saturday.

That says it all! Those that are going to West Ham and not Forest should be ashamed of themselves

Hasn't that 50mph 5 billion mile stretch now gone?

Can't say I've noticed it on my journeys.

Can anybody confirm?.

Yeah it`s gone, it`s just that the M1 can be horrendous that time of day, much prefer the less stressfull route by Clumber Park

Well, that's me. I am going to West Ham but not Forest for various reasons (work/ family) but of course I'm not as much of a supporter as prawncocktail.

I've had a bellyful of this forum and to be told by some Johnny-Come-Lately fan that I should be ashamed of myself really is the last straw.

Time to call it a day- be seeing you all!

With the money I'm saving by not going tonight I have been able to buy a pretty nice pen.

I will use this pen to tick off Upton Park on Saturday. Can't wait.

The game at West Ham is an all ticket game. The only tickets for sale on the day will be on the West Ham side. I have just ordered mine so that's one more to the total and losing interest? never! this situation sorts the men from the boys.

Christ TRB, that's a bit harsh in response to some un-educated tic turd remark (the kind that we've become accustomed too now, surely).
We need you and your types on here.

Ever thought he might be poking fun at what Mr Frost used to say, rather than insulting you? Just a thought...

It is a *hite away support now at all games.  People have given up, we are down, the team show no fight and we are now back to the hard core of 10+ years ago.
Title: Re: Whats going on?
Post by: DearneValleyRover on March 06, 2012, 04:04:13 pm
I'm not going tonight because I'm working in Eastleigh and I can't afford it. I'm also not going on Saturday as I can't afford it. I'm sure that work and finances will stop plenty of others and if people choose West Ham over Forest it doesn't make them less of a supporter. Try paying bills prawncocktail before condemning people. Also have you chosen Forest over West Ham because your mam won't let you go to London?

Couldn't give two monkeys flying F**ks what prawn cocktail says tbh. I'm going west ham and not tonight. But then if the t**t wants to pay my fuel bill to drive 300 miles so I can go and still feed my 4 kids then he's welcome and I'll see him tonight??

Thought not :) see you saturday.

Mr Frost?


Without a shadow of a doubt Id say.

If I could afford either of these games Id pick the West Ham one, with two kids I could atleast make a weekend of it in London. Tuesday night in Nottingham v Saturday/ Sunday in London? No contest.

Quite disgusting to say people should be ashamed of themselves to be honest.

It's not the biggest game since Wembley..

You get relegated cos you are sh*t over a full season not cos of one game.

It's a local game for me living in Lincolnshire. Not going though. Refuse to give forest my money for overpriced tickets. Will be at the reading game instead.
