Just a note on the bench - Abbott is Zach Abbott, who's only a couple months after turning 16 and a couple years younger than anyone else in the squad (Dale Taylor being the next youngest).

Must be an impressive talent, as he’s in ahead of a whole bunch of older lads.

The countdown clock on the Official site is also not quite right.
This is it at 17:05:

The media team can't even be bothered to make sure the clock is working properly!
I am very disappointed by the Club's whole approach to the fans over these pre-season games.
Is it because Cooper wants to keep our squad and tactics under wraps?
But that can't be as every other club in the PPrem will have someone in the crowd, taking notes.

Could be a 4231?


Henderson
Biancone Cook Worrall Niakhate
Cafu Colback
Williams Hammond Johnson
Awoniyi

Have speculated we might see Biancone and Niakhate in full back positions when seeing out a lead. Could be trying it.

Oh, I was assuming from the line up that Williams was LWB and Biacone RWB - otherwise one of Biancone, Cook, Worrall or Niakhaté would have to be in midfield.
You may be correct Congo, to be honest.

I made the fatal mistake of - after bumping into a work colleague - going for a „quick Bier“ so anything else I post today may well be tinged by a combination of alcohol and absolute bollocks.

(Germans don’t do „quick“ biers)

Because the people running that side of the club, the media and commercial side, including ticketing and retail, aren’t very good at their jobs, to be blunt.

Forest have been rubbish at this stuff for years. And as you say, it is a bit embarrassing.

My local side is streaming all preseason games for free, on its YouTube channel. There is also the VfB-TV service that provides coverage of youth and other fixtures, interviews, media pieces (like live pre-match press conferences and suchlike) all for €5 a month. There are highlights, features and all sorts of interesting things too.

The club also puts lots of content on YouTube for free as well.

It really isn’t that difficult to make decent Media pieces and get them out there - Max Hayes and Mr. Dore manage to produce some fantastic Forest content, as Obediah Stone might put it „in a cave, from scraps!“ that knocks spots off much of the clubs‘ official output.

Forest are playing in the richest league in the world now, yet so much of the football clubs‘ operations still seem to be run like a corner shop.
I know it's a different sport, but when you look at what Notts and the other 1st class counties give you with match coverages, including instant replays, plus pre and post day interviews all for free, it shows just how far behind Forest are.

You aren’t wrong there.

Both pre-match and matchday, NCC pisses all over Forest.

And it should not be like that.
