1865: The Nottingham Forest Podcast

This week's visit to Yatesy's Espresso Bar splits into two: Rich is joined by our Women's team correspondent Matt Turpin to review last weekend's FA Cup victory over Wolves - it was a bit squeakier than we would like but Carly employed proper game management tactics to see us over the line and into the next round. Then friend of the podcast Steve Burns joins us to review the progress of the men's...

It was a welcome league win after the disappointing defeat at Everton, as Callum Hudson-Odoi scored twice (one of which he DEFINITELY meant) and Ibrahim Sangaré made the first before scoring an absolute belter for the third goal. In truth, Spurs were lacklustre, but as the match went on, the Reds gained in stature and confidence. The importance of Murillo was underlined in both defence and team sh...

It was a topsy-turvy affair in the Netherlands, as Forest, resplendent in their navy third kit, dominated the first 25 mins and then retreated for a nervy end to the first half. A double substitution at the break saw the Reds take the lead through Arnaud Kalimuendo's opportunism, but then they conceded a poor goal from a set-piece. Luckily, Forest were able to introduce Morgan Gibbs-White and Igor...

In an unexpected development, this podcast includes a lengthy rant by Rich about how people in general, but football fans in particular, use social media! The use of such apps provides the basis for much of our discussion, with thoughts from Katie Campbell and Matt Turpin on the Ola Aina debacle, how discourse has changed between football fans in the modern age, and why fans, players and journalis...

That couldn't have gone much worse, could it? From Nicoló Savona's yellow card after 30 seconds, to conceding from the resulting free kick, all the way through poor team defending for the second and third goals, the Reds were rightly punished for a poor display. Sure, there were a couple of decisions that might have made a marginal difference, with Tarkowski's off-the-ball barge on Ndoye going unp...

It might not be the last time we use this headline, but Igor Jesus' first Premier League goal was a vital contribution in a game of little quality. The most important thing was to take home the points as Wolves are dire and Forest didn't want to get stranded as teams like Leeds got victories. Baz is joined by Tom to discuss a game in a poor atmosphere, with a mystifyingly long VAR check and little...

The more eagle-eyed Forest fans will have noticed that Sean Dyche has now surpassed his predecessor's tenure at the City Ground, having completed 40 days in charge. In this special episode of Yatesy's Espresso Bar, Steven Toplis is joined by YouTuber and Reds fan Ray Mundo Futbol, to compare and contrast the gruff man from Kettering with the big Australian. We'll be back later in the week to bring...

Forest fans were given a dose of reality after a string of good results, as a goal at the end of each half saw Brighton return to the south coast with all the points. The visitors made a strong start and it was midway through the first period before we saw the Reds gain a foothold, but de Cuyper's late goal saw Brighton lead at half-time. There was no shortage of endeavour from Forest in the secon...

A nostalgic night at the WFCG, but also a historic one in its own right as skipper Ryan Yates scored to make him the only player in history to score in the top five divisions of English football, both domestic cups and now the Europa League (and on each day of the week). It was actually fairly routine for the (all) Reds, who despite seven changes were a cut above the Swedish opponents with the noi...

It's time for a new podcast as we return to Yatesy's Espresso Bar for a roundup of the latest news from the City Ground. Rich is joined by the Maradona of the Midlands to discuss: Victory at Anfield again Updates on the B Team and NFFC Women Malmö preview We'll be back after Thursday's Europa League match with a review of all the action.

Some Reds fans may have been confident of getting a result, but I don't think anyone saw that coming. Whatever grumbles that LiVARpool fans may have had about the first goal, they were eclipsed by the injustice of Igor Jesus having an effort chalked off for a non-existent handball that was surely enough to call the ref to the pitchside monitors for a review. Fortunately it didn't matter as Sean Dy...

Welcome to 1865: the ORIGINAL Nottingham Forest Podcast, established 2008. In Part 2 of our Steve Chettle interview, the former Forest skipper talks to us about the UEFA Cup run and THAT goal, and the ups and downs of playing under Big Ron and David Platt. Oops.

Presented by Steven Toplis with...

Welcome to Part 2 of November's Football Terrorists show, 1865's irreverent review of events at the City Ground. In this episode, we hear from an Everton fan with thoughts on Dycheball, explore why Igor Jesus is different in the cups, and decide who is getting what in the City Ground Secret Santa. Hosted by Rich Ferraro with the Maradona of the Midlands, with panellists Steven Toplis, Tom Newton a...

It's the return of Football Terrorists, 1865's irreverent review of events at the City Ground. In Part 1 of this month's show, we imagine what might be going through the mind of Sean Dyche as he takes on his new(ish) job, hear about the progress of the Forest Women, and get some thoughts on Sky Sports' disastrous attempt to attract female sports fans. Hosted by Rich Ferraro with the Maradona of th...

On a day when the City Ground paid tribute to those who had fought in wars, along with Stephen Crean and the heroes of last week's train attack, Sean Dyche's Nottingham Forest fought back from a goal down to record a fine victory before the international break. Despite an early concession to Lukas Nmecha, the Reds quickly equalised through Ibrahim Sangaré, and although they dominated most of the f...

A much changed Forest line-up secured a 0-0 draw away from home, but it should have been more. The home team had a goal ruled out for offside, but in reality Forest were the better team and would have made it count but for Ryan Yates' header being cleared off the line and MGW's penalty being saved. Steven Toplis is joined by George Edwards and new 1865 recruit Katie Campbell, from the blog A View...

The good news is that Forest managed to get their first Premier League goals in ages! The less positive element is that, despite the quick salvo, the Reds didn't manage to hold on for all three points against a resurgent Manchester United team. George and Baz report after attending the City Ground encounter which saw Sean Dyche name an unchanged team, and then deliver what must have been a strong...

Welcome to Yatesy's Espresso Bar, in which Rich, Steven and Tom gather in the piazza for a hot caffeinated beverage and discuss some of the big Nottingham Forest issues: Dyche's first week: pumped for Porto, deflated at Dean Court Rediscovering defensive resolve and finding a nasty streak Nicoló Savona: yay or nay? More rumours than Fleetwood Mac: Nuno, Edu, Postecoglou Thanks as always for listen...

A disappointing afternoon for the Reds, but let's be honest, we always lose at Bournemouth, don't we? Sean Dyche made only one change from the team that played at Porto, but then made a triple change at half-time in response to an opening period that saw Forest go 2-0 down to a couple of really soft goals. The second half was better but pretty unremarkable all round. Morgan Gibbs-White had the Red...

It was a historic European night at the City Ground as Sean Dyche brought a refreshed attitude and a return to some of the simpler things in football, but without resorting to dinosaur tactics. Despite Porto playing some neat stuff, they never got the chance to maintain their unbeaten run as the Reds inflicted their first defeat of the season through penalties from Morgan Gibbs-White and Igor Jesu...

Recorded on the day when Sean Dyche was confirmed as the new Head Coach of the Reds, we discuss: A better fit for Forest? Yin and yang Preparing for Porto Presented by Rich Ferraro with Steven Toplis and Steve Burns. Everyone at 1865 sends deepest sympathies to Pearce family following this week's sad news.

Welcome to this 1865 Podcast Special, with thanks to Henry Winter for the headline. Normally we would be bringing you a match report but following the news of Ange Postecoglou's sacking minutes after the end of the 0-3 defeat to Chelsea, we have got the team together to discuss: Was this departure inevitable? Should they have sacked him during the international break? Dyche, Mancini or someone els...
