OK, this thread HAD to be done, and is really a continuation of the same subject on the last page of the thread 'Ding Dong Derby Double', and the question is, in the words of The Clash, "Should He Stay or Should he Go"?

Very interesting to read the diverse views aired so far on the above thread.

LAST MATCH



Well should we be surprised by that non performance, just add it to the long list from this season. The lack of urgency, the apathy shown by the players was bewildering. In a game that we needed to win and where Forest players had there flip flops on, there was still only one team who looked like they might win and it wasn't us. Forest had the best chance of the game from the penalty spot but Westwood saved well from Grabbon. We put Rhodes on in the 2nd half and he did have several half chances but there keeper only had one straightforward save to make. Derby lost and the Rotherham drew at Luton, so to the weekend where it will finally be sorted.

FORM GUIDE

FOREST 7 PNE 13

CITY GROUND

The City Ground is a football stadium in West Bridgford, Nottinghamshire, England, on the banks of the River Trent. It has been home to Nottingham Forest Football Club since 1898, and has 30,445 seats.

The stadium was a venue when England hosted Euro 96, and is only three hundred yards (270 m) away from Meadow Lane, home of Forest's neighbouring club Notts County; the two grounds are the closest professional football stadiums in England and the second-closest in the United Kingdom after the grounds of Dundee and Dundee United. They are located on opposite sides of the River Trent.Nottingham Forest moved to their new ground on 3 September 1898 – 33 years after their formation and six years after election to the Football League.

To raise the £3,000 required to finance the move the club asked members, supporters and businessmen to subscribe to "New Ground Scheme" bearer bonds which cost £5 each. Over £2,000 was raised this way.

The new ground was called the City Ground. It was only a few hundred yards from the old Town Ground at the opposite end of Trent Bridge, which had been named after the Town Arms pub. Nottingham was granted its Charter as a City in 1897 and it was called the City Ground to commemorate this as the land on which it stands was at that time within the City boundary. In 1952 boundary changes resulted in the ground coming under the local council of West Bridgford (Rushcliffe Borough Council) rather than the City. Opposite the City Ground, still within the City boundaries, lies Meadow Lane, home of Notts County. The City Ground was wide open on three sides with no protection from the weather but the pitch was one of the finest in the country. This was due to the presence on the committee of J. W. Bardill, a nurseryman whose family firm still exists in Stapleford near Nottingham and whose company was given the task of preparing the pitch.

In 1935, the club had the opportunity to buy the ground from Nottingham Corporation for £7,000 but they declined.

On 12 October 1957, a new East Stand opened at the City Ground, costing £40,000 and having benches to seat up to 2,500 fans. The visitors for the opening were Manchester United’s "Busby Babes", just four months before eight of them died in the Munich air disaster. On 11 September 1961, the floodlights at the ground were officially turned on for the first time as Forest faced Gillingham in the League Cup.[7] A new record attendance of 49,946 was set in October 1967 when Forest beat Manchester Utd 3-1 in a First Division fixture, five months after Forest had finished second to United in the league. In December 1967 the City Ground was host to an England U23 match against Italy.[8]

The Main Stand was largely rebuilt in 1965 but, on 24 August 1968, fire broke out during a First Division game against Leeds United.[9] It started in the boiler room, just before half-time. The stand was damaged but, despite a crowd numbering 31,126, none of them were injured.[9] The only reported injuries were to a television crew on the TV gantry, who had to scramble down it because the access ladder was stored in the boiler room. The gantry was extended the length of the stand and now has access at both ends. As a result of the fire, Forest played six 'home' matches at nearby Meadow Lane and did not win one of them. Sadly many of the club's records, trophies and other memorabilia were lost in the fire. The stand was refurbished.The Executive Stand was built in 1980 at a cost of £2 million — largely from proceeds of the highly successful era in which Forest brought the European Cup back to Nottingham in 1979 and 1980, having won the league title in 1978. Forest also won the Football League Cup twice during that era.

Under Clough's reign, Forest had taken the English domestic game and the European scene by storm and money raised from those successes was invested in a stand that had a capacity of 10,000. It was renamed The Brian Clough Stand after his retirement, and was re-opened after refurbishment by the man himself in the mid-1990s. The stand also incorporated 36 executive boxes and a large dining area, which was designed to be the focus of the club's corporate hospitality arrangements.

Nottingham Forest had been the opposing team in the fateful FA Cup semi-final against Liverpool at Hillsborough, Sheffield, on 15 April 1989, in which 96 Liverpool fans were fatally injured in a human crush on the stadium's terraces. The disaster resulted in the Taylor Report ordering that all clubs in the top two divisions of English football should have an all-seater stadium by August 1994. This resulted in the need for more redevelopment and refurbishment at the City Ground.

More major development took part in 1992–93 with the rebuilding of the Bridgford Stand. Work started in April 1992 and when completed the Stand had a capacity of 7,710, the lower tier of 5,131 being allocated to away supporters. The unusual shape of the roof was a planning requirement to allow sunlight to reach houses in nearby Colwick Road. The Stand includes accommodation for 70 wheelchair supporters.[10] It also houses a management suite, which includes the public address systems, computerised electronic scoreboard controls and the police matchday operation.

The Trent End was the most recent stand to be rebuilt between 1994 and 1996 — in time for Euro 96, the European Football Championships. The new stand, such a prominent landmark by the River Trent, held 7,338 to take the ground's capacity to 30,576 all-seated.

The ground would be able to expand to up to 46,000 if ever there was ever a return to the top flight. Forest were relegated from the FA Premier League three times between 1993 and 1999. Although they achieved promotion at the first attempt following the first two relegations, they have yet to return to the Premier League since their relegation in 1999 and even spent three seasons in League One - English football's third tier.

On 20 June 2007, the Forest board announced plans for a possible relocation to a new 50,000-seat stadium in the city, although such a move was not expected to take place before 2014. This was part of England's bid to host the 2018 World Cup, but in December 2010 England's World Cup bid was rejected in favour of Russia being selected as the host nation.

Several improvements to the stadium have been made since the Trent End rebuild such as two new LED Screens being installed between the Trent End and the Brian Clough Stand and in the far corner of the Bridgford Stand. A small number of seats were lost because of this. LED advertising boards were also installed around the perimeter of the pitch excluding the Main Stand. These improvements cost around £1 million.

The City Ground also hosted the FA Women's Cup Final for two successive years in 2007 and 2008. The 2007 final was contested by Arsenal L.F.C. and Charlton Athletic L.F.C. with the attendance of 24,529 smashing the previous record attendance for the competition of 13,824 for the final between Arsenal L.F.C. and Fulham L.F.C. at Selhurst Park in 2001. In 2008, the attendance record was broken once again when 24,582 spectators saw Arsenal L.F.C. beat Leeds United 4–1.

Aside from football, the stadium has also hosted two other large-scale events. On 28 April 2002 the stadium hosted a semi-final of rugby's Heineken Cup in which Leicester Tigers beat Llanelli Scarlets 13–12. Leicester Tigers once again played at City Ground when they were defeated 19-16 by Racing 92 on 24 April 2016 in the semi-final of the European Rugby Champions Cup. The stadium hosted its first music concert when R.E.M. performed there[11] in front of an audience of 20,000.

In October 2015, Forest renamed the Main Stand, "The Peter Taylor Stand" after former European Cup winning assistant-manager Peter Taylor, who died 25 years earlier.[12]

Following issues with the ground's safety certificate, the capacity of the stadium was reduced to 24,357 ahead of the 2016–17 season.[13]

FAMOUS NOTTINGHAM PERSON

Mary Howitt (12 March 1799 – 30 January 1888) was an English poet, the author of the famous poem The Spider and the Fly. She translated several tales by Hans Christian Andersen.
On 16 April 1821 she married William Howitt and began a career of joint authorship with him. Her life was bound up with that of her husband; she was separated from him only during a period when he journeyed to Australia (1851–1854).[1] She and her husband wrote over 180 books.[4]

They lived initially in Heanor in Derbyshire, where William was a pharmacist.[3] Not until 1823, when they were living in Nottingham, did William decide to give up his business with his brother Richard and concentrate with Mary on writing.[3] Their literary productions at first consisted mainly of poetry and other contributions to annuals and periodicals. A selection appeared in 1827 as The Desolation of Eyam and other Poems.

The couple mixed with many literary figures, including Charles Dickens, Elizabeth Gaskell and Elizabeth Barrett Browning. On moving to Esher in 1837, Howitt began writing a long series of well-known tales for children, with signal success.[1] In 1837 they toured Northern England and stayed with William and Dorothy Wordsworth.[3] Their work was generally well regarded: in 1839 Queen Victoria gave George Byng a copy of Mary's Hymns and Fireside Verses.[3]

William and Mary moved to London in 1843, and after a second move in 1844, counted Tennyson amongst their neighbours.[3] In 1853 they moved to West Hill in Highgate[5] close to Hillside, the home of their friends, the physician and sanitary reformer Thomas Southwood Smith and his partner, the artist Margaret and her sister Mary Gillies. Mary Howitt had some years earlier arranged that the children's writer Hans Christian Andersen would visit Hillside to see the haymaking during his trip to England in 1847.[6]In the early 1840s Mary Howitt was residing in Heidelberg, where her literary friends included Shelley's biographer Thomas Medwin and the poet Caroline de Crespigny, and her attention was drawn to Scandinavian literature. She and a friend, Madame Schoultz, set about learning Swedish and Danish. She then translated into English and introduced Fredrika Bremer's novels (1842–1863, 18 vols). Howitt also translated many of Hans Christian Andersen's tales, such as[1]

Only a Fiddler (1845)
The Improvisators (1845, 1847) 1900 edition at the Internet Archive
Wonderful Stories for Children (1846)
The True Story of every Life (1847).[1]
Among her original works were The Heir of Wast-WayIand (1847). She edited for three years the Drawing-room Scrap Book, writing, among other articles, "Biographical Sketches of the Queens of England". She edited the Pictorial Calendar of the Seasons, translated Joseph Ennemoser's History of Magic, and took the chief share in The Literature and Romance of Northern Europe (1852). She also produced a Popular History of the United States (2 vols, 1859), and a three-volume novel called The Cost of Caergwyn (1864).[1]

Mary's brother-in-law Godfrey Howitt, his wife and her family emigrated to Australia, arriving at Port Phillip in April 1840.[7] In June 1852, the three male Howitts, accompanied by Edward La Trobe Bateman, sailed there, hoping to make a fortune. Meanwhile, Mary and her two daughters moved into The Hermitage, Bateman's cottage in Highgate, which had previously been occupied by Dante Gabriel Rossetti.[8]

The men returned from Australia a number of years later. William wrote several books describing its flora and fauna.[3] Their son, Alfred William Howitt, achieved renown as an Australian explorer, anthropologist and naturalist; he discovered the remains of the explorers Burke and Wills, which he brought to Melbourne for burial.

Mary Howitt had several other children. Charlton Howitt was drowned while engineering a road in New Zealand. Anna Mary Howitt spent a year in Germany with the artist Wilhelm von Kaulbach, an experience she wrote up as An Art-Student in Munich. She married Alaric Alfred Watts, wrote a biography of her father, and died while on a visit to her mother in Tirol in 1884.[9] Margaret Howitt wrote the Life of Fredrika Bremer and a memoir of her own mother.[10]

Mary Howitt's name was attached as author, translator or editor to at least 110 works. She received a silver medal from the Literary Academy of Stockholm, and on 21 April 1879 gained a civil list pension of £100 a year. In her declining years she joined the Roman Catholic Church, and was one of an English deputation received by Pope Leo XIII on 10 January 1888. Her Reminiscences of my Later Life were printed in Good Words in 1886. The Times wrote of her and her husband:

Their friends used jokingly to call them William and Mary, and to maintain that they had been crowned together like their royal prototypes. Nothing that either of them wrote will live, but they were so industrious, so disinterested, so amiable, so devoted to the work of spreading good and innocent literature, that their names ought not to disappear unmourned.

Mary Howitt was away from her residence in Meran in Tirol, spending the winter in Rome, when she died of bronchitis on 30 January 1888.[1]

Given the game is behind closed doors and Mary is dead she won't be at the game

For those interested in going to the Hawthorns for our final match, Ballot now open I’m in with my Granddaughter.
       Good luck all.

Weeks ago SGB for one thought Sutton were all but home and hosed. Now it doesn't look so certain. Their games in hand have been whittled down to one and they are now four points behind leaders Torquay.

Torquay have managed that most difficult of tricks, to establish a big lead, lose it and then fight back to be top again. You have to admire it, because they certainly aren't the best side on paper. Yet, on Saturday, they avoided the potential banana skin of a trip to Chesterfield with relative ease. Meanwhile Hartlepool were all but blowing their chance by losing at Bromley and putting their fate in the hands of the three teams above them.

Stockport are the side in form. If they could win their remaining 4 games, they'd finish on 83 points and they have easily the best goal difference, so to get above them any rival would need 84 points. That rules out Hartlepool. It means Sutton must win 4 of their remaining 5 games. And top-placed Torquay, at first sight look best-placed with just 2 wins and two draws or three wins and a defeat necessary.

The big buts for Torquay are that first they have Stockport to play, so if Stockport do their stuff, Torquay have three other must-win games, which isn't an easy proposition, and second Sutton's 5 games involve 4 against teams they would have expected to beat until the last few weeks. Their toughest game on paper is Hartlepool, but they may well be preserving their players for the play-offs by that point. So, 84 points ought not to be beyond Sutton's grasp, which would make Stockport's run irrelevant, and as their goal difference mirrors Torquay's the actual pressure would be on the Gulls to win three more times, get to 85 points and force Sutton to win all their own games if they wanted to win it. But, if Torquay can do for Stockport and win their other three then no-one can catch them.

So who wins the National League?

So this idea of a breakaway European Super League causes more issues for football in the UK. But this time they directly affected our beloved Prediction League and I can tell you that as a committee supporting you, our members, we are not at all happy with this!! We have decided that due to the Gamball being declared null and void we will be taking both legal and physical action against Man Utd directly.

To this end we have instructed our attorneys to write a very stern letter to Man Utd's owners the Glazers to inform them of the trouble they are causing and that they have been very, very naughty!! To ram this point home Zinman and I have volunteered to take this letter directly to them and at the same time hold a peaceful protest outside their offices in Florida!! On your behalf (and on Stair's dime!!) we will dedicate two weeks of our time to sweat in the Florida sun but rest assured we will be protected by factor 50 sun cream!! We know all of you will be supporting us and wishing us well from the UK!!

So without the Gamball we still had the other 9 games, and top of the charts this week is St Charles with 16 points, he was the only one to get 2 CSs and backed this up with 3 CRs including the Bonus. Amelia keeps her recent form going and is in 2nd on 13 points, like SCO she scored on 5 games but only had one CS. Champion-elect BBB and relegation favorite Twerton are in 3rd on 11 points, both got the Bonus but even though Twerton scored on more games, BBB was able to convert one of his to a CS to keep their points level.

Bomber is 5th with 10 points, again scoring on 5 games but his score was held back due to missing on the Bonus. Snooty is 6th and finally got a positive score finishing with 7 points. Sanjay, AAA and Derby were all tied on 6 points, Sanjay and AAA had identical records, scoring on 4 games, whereas Derby only scored on 2 games but one of them was his Bonus to boost his score.

Themaclad has been on a poor run and it appears not to be over just yet, he is in last place this week on -1, his decent form of a few weeks ago now seems like a distant memory but as the cricket season has started I fear his mind might be elsewhere as he spirals towards the Championship!! His only saving grace this week was that for the first time in his long life he managed to score a half century for his local cricket team, well done on that one Themaclad!!!!

BBB - 332
St Charles - 267
Sanjay - 256
Bomber - 253
AAA - 232
Lord Snooty - 223
Amelia - 222
Derby - 210
Themaclad - 182
Twerton - 181

No positional changes in the table this week but some races certainly hotted up a little. SCO in 2nd opened a bit of a gap on Sanjay in 3rd but the real move was from Bomber who is now just 3 points behind Sanjay. Lord Snooty's poor form may have seen a boost this week but his other 'arf Amelia's consistent good form now sees her only a single point behind him!! Derby is losing ground on these two and that relegation PO spot is looming large for him. The bottom two have been the same for weeks now but Twerton's decent recent form couple with Themaclad's exploits in cricket means there is now only one point between them in the race for the wooden spoon!!

Cheers

Breaking News:

A special Prediction League investigation has discovered evidence that suggests that Minizin was the mastermind (?) behind the Manchester Utd protests. In an apparent move to limit the chances of anyone preventing his promotion he moved to ensure that the gamball game would be postponed denying his rivals of any chance of securing the maximum 10 points. The investigation will continue and when.....sorry, that should be if...he is found guilty a points deduction will surely be in order. In the meantime, SCO and I will be seeking retribution from the Glazers though SCO did forget to mention that our trip will require outside funding (well, have you seen the prices in the bars, strip clubs and brothels in Miami?). Funds can be sent to "Buy Zin a house in California" - just pm me for the account details.

In the absence of the gamball, with 1 exception scores were fairly close this week. We were helped by only 1 incorrect bonus ball and a decent return from the scoreball. The exception was BaggieOne, reigniting his promotion push with a very strong performance and the week's highest correct scores and correct results. A 5 point gap to Somerset and that arch villain, Minizin sharing second place, both scoring from the 2 balls in play. DD got to double figures from just 3 correct results with Zinman just a further point behind. Lady Jane was one of only 3 players with a correct score but was let down by her bonus (seems to be something of a theme for her) - still, 8 points from 9 games isn't a bad return.

Not much damage done elsewhere with Joker and Stairs on 7 points though Silver's promotion hopes will have taken a knock with his bottom place this week with only 2 correct results.

Minizin 282
BaggieOne 261
Silver 257
Zinman 257
Stairs 244
Somerset 242
Joker 224
DD 220
Lady Jane 208


Pending further investigation, Minizin looks set for the championship. The competition for the other promotion and play-off spot is become more intense with just 4 points separating 3 players. BaggieOne's good week takes him from 4th back up to 2nd but there's still all to play for. Any rumours that Zinman will be putting BaggieOne and Silver on his ignore list and claiming they didn't submit scores might well be correct! Stairs and Somerset will need an incredible end to their season if they are to mount a late challenge while Joker and DD might just have enough to avoid bottom place unless Lady Jane improves her use of her balls!

May the 8th down the ages: How did we get on in previous matches played on this date?

1926: Leeds United (n) West Riding Cup, lost 1-4 (?????)
1943: Sunderland (h) Wartime League North, WON 4-1 (Willie Watson 3, Rickett)
1945: Barnsley (a) Wartime League North, WON 4-2 (Arnold Rodgers, Mosby, Eddie Boot)
1982: Brentford (h) Div 3, drew 1-1 (Peter Valentine)
1993: Stockport County (h) Div Two (3rd tier), WON 2-1 (Mark Cooper, Gary Barnett)
2004: Cheltenham Town (a) Div Three (4th tier), drew 1-1 (Andy Booth)
2010: Exeter City (a) League One (3rd tier), lost 1-2 (Gary Roberts)


Only seven games played on this date and we didn't get a league game until 1982. We've won more than we've lost though.

The 1926 defeat against Leeds in the West Riding Cup came just a week after we had completed our third season as League Champions. The game was played at Bradford's Park Avenue stadium and was played during the General Strike. Newspapers were on strike and so nobody made a note of the scorer. Getting beaten by the bums from Beeston, I think the Town team must've been on strike too.

The game in 2004 is quite a famous one. Boothy scored his 100th goal for the club as we looked to be heading for automatic promotion. But then Pawel Abbott, who's goals had got us into a promotion spot in the first place, went on a mazy dribble down the wing in the wrong direction, ran out of places to go and sent a woefully short back pass to the keeper.
