Rich Ferraro's Forest Ramble

The headlines will show that ten man Forest came back to rescue a point, but really the Reds were the better team in the first thirty minutes and should have capitalised. As it was, after Moussa Niakhate's red card, the Bees took the lead with a soft goal - both the Forest defence and Matt Turner should have done better. Luckily, Brentford keeper Flekken had his own moment just a few minutes later, as Nico Dominguez diverted Harry Toffolo's cross to equalise. Baz and Tom Newton discuss the game, the talking points and which team got the rub of the green on a bad weekend for Premier League officials and VAR. We also hear from Billy The Bee with a view from the away end. We'll be back after the Palace match.

After ten minutes it looked like this was going the way of last season's match at the Etihad; in fact when Forest conceded the first goal they hadn't even managed to string two passes together and barely had 10% possession. However, they did manage to regroup a bit to keep the score down, and the second half was a different proposition after Rodri's red card. Steve Cooper had mixed feelings, knowing that the Reds had given the Champions a two goal start, but despite the improved second half showing they didn't create enough chances. Our match report is presented by Steven Toplis, with Ellie Molloson fresh back from the away end, and the opposition view coming from Michael of the Perth de la Prem podcast.

A disappointing result at the City Ground, as an attacking looking Reds line-up failed to capitalise, before Burnley took the lead through some neat play down the left presented Zeki Amdouni with his second goal against Forest in just a few weeks. Fortunately, some excellent hold-up play from Taiwo Awoniyi gave the ball to Callum Hudson-Odoi on the corner of the box, and the debutant curled a beauty into the top corner to make it honours even. Following a night with a red card, disallowed goals and VAR controversies, Baz is joined by Tom to discuss the game, Forest's line-up and future prospects. We are also joined by Joe from TurfCast Podcast with the view from the away end, and our Callum joins us to update on the 25-man Forest squad. We'll be back at the weekend.

A fabulous result for Steve Cooper's Reds, as substitute Antony Elanga calmly slotted home on the break after good work by Mangala, Yates and Awoniyi to win the ball and set the winger free. Forest didn't have much possession, but in truth Matt Turner didn't have that much to do, although the Reds will be grateful for Nicholas Jackson's glaring miss. Steven and Tom report on the Reds' first away victory of the season, which can be summed up by Mauricio Pochettino's (paraphrased) statement that teams that don't score don't win many matches. We also hear from Callum Castel who sums up Forest's very busy transfer window for us.

The Reds made an early exit from the Carabao Cup with a home defeat to Vincent Kompany's Burnley. It wasn't a match to remember, and Zeki Amdouni's 90th minute winner was the first shot on target. Ouch. George Edwards is in the podcast hotseat for the first time, and is joined by Adam to review the game, and they discuss the game, the shortcomings of the team and the tactics on the night, with a nod to forthcoming games and the forthcoming transfer deadline.

It all started so well as very early goals from Taiwo Awoniyi (breaking the record for scoring in consecutive Premier League matches) and Willy Boly fired the Reds into a two-goal lead, but then the home team woke up, with the assistance of one or two refereeing moments; Steve Cooper merely commented how quick the official was to blow the whistle, rather than taking his time. Steven and Tom discuss the action, the tactics and what it takes for an away team to get a victory at Old Trafford. We are also joined by Callum Castel with another bumper news roundup.

The Reds got their first win of the season with a fine late header from Chris Wood. It had looked like Forest were the architects of their own downfall, after taking an early lead through Taiwo Awoniyi's header, they looked good, until they ... well, didn't. The visitors were hoping Gustavo Hamer's equaliser after the break would earn a point, but Stevie Cooper's subs made a difference. Maradona of the Midlands is joined by Baz and Adam to discuss the action, the tactics and the City Ground atmosphere, as well as what we are learning about the Forest squad. We are also joined by Callum Castel with a bumper news roundup and we thank Chad from the Red Half Of Sheffield for providing a view from the opposition.

It was an opening day defeat at The Emirates, although a late rally from the Reds gave the home team a bit of a scare, when an electric break from Awoniyi and Elanga led to the big number 9 netting his first goal of the season. There's still work to do, as discussed by Steven Toplis, with George Edwards and Ellie Molloson, fresh back from north London. We also hear from Arsenal fan Chris, with his views on the game and what he thinks about Forest. We'll be back with a report after Friday's home match against Sheffield United.

Waka waka eh eh? The game was probably second to the occasion as Forest's army of travelling fans supported the team to an away point. Having scored Forest's first Premier League goal this season, Taiwo Awoniyi also got the last, hitting double figures in his debut Premier League campaign. However, Will Hughes' header deflected off Willy Boly to earn the hosts a point, which meant that everyone was probably happy enough. Rich Ferraro is joined by Tom and Adam, both fresh back from a long day in the capital, to reflect upon the trip to Selhurst Park and the sense of occasion as the Reds' fans celebrated survival and the players and staff joined in, including Mr Marinakis.

THEY DID IT! WE DID IT! Forest preserved their Premier League status with a game to spare, as they defeated Arsenal at the City Ground, destroying the visitors' faint title hopes in the process. The game wasn't massively memorable, but the occasion was immense - the City Ground has never been so loud and the team, staff and fans were jubilant at the final whistle. Rich Ferraro is joined by Baz to discuss the game, and the genius that is Stevie Cooper. Emilka Forest joins with her views on the atmosphere, celebrations and Mr Marinakis' decision to stick with the gaffer. Callum Castel also joins us to provide the latest news roundup, and there are cameo appearances from Steven and Adam on a jubilant day for the Reds.

A tense and battling performance earned the Reds a point, but for a while it felt like it could have been more. A header in each half from Taiwo Awoniyi put Forest in the lead, then pulled them back into contention, either side of Raheem Sterling's (preventable) brace. Rich Ferraro is joined by the Maradona of the Midlands to discuss the game, with Callum Castel providing the latest news roundup. Time will tell if this point is enough, but for now the Reds are three points outside of the relegation zone, before next week's big match against Arsenal rounds off the City Ground season.
