They say the definition of insanity is doing the same thing a hundred times, and always expecting a different outcome. So Nigel Doughty and me do have something in common after all.

This season marks my eighteenth year as a Forest supporter. I’ll start by saying that at no point has that support been [...]

A horrible horrible read, but it is the sad reality of where Forest are at the minute and the feeling of alot of the fans.... Very well written and totally heart felt reading it....

Horrible but brilliant article. It sums up exactly how I feel. You should send that to Doughty & MArthar.

Indeed it should be sent. They should read that and look long and hard at themselves and ask are they the best to take Forest forward, because after 10 years they have got to seriously doubt that......


Who wrote it? Whoever did has a real talent there.....

Emails if they so wish to email it to the owner and CEO....

I'd love to add some profound reply to that article but I cant. It sums up my own feelings to this football club perfectly, and I too find that utterly heartbreaking.

For a Forest fan my age, the only major thing achieved whilst being a fan was the promotion last year, reading that doesn't hurt as much as it would other people.

Its utterly painful, suicidal, but just.

If you contribute in the same manner as you wrote that article, you will be most welcome here. A depressing, but unfortunately excellent and accurate read.

I should add that you will be most welcome even if you simply have multiple personalitites or an unbridled desire to post random pictures of cats.

But that's just because it's that sort of place!

Agreed, it's rare to find someone who puts a negative point across in a positive and understandable way.

I think you summed up exactly why my Dad gave up his season ticket a few years ago. It has just hit you a little later.

That sir, is the most gut-wrenching article I have read in years.

Nail on the head does not even come close.

Thank you.

I salute you sir, Amazing article and I am must admit it brought a few tears to my eye. Would you allow this to be posted on the other forum boards? As an article like that deserves to have as many viewers as possible.

May I ask if you write professionally? I am sure sending that to local and national papers could open doors, Especially if you can write like that for other things you feel strongly about....
