LONDON BRANCH CELEBRATE

THEIR 40TH ANNIVERSARY

10 September 2017

The London branch of the Nottingham Forest Supporters Club celebrate their 40th anniversary this year and are marking the event on the 7th of October. Branch Chairman Stephen Moon tells us more.

The Day Peter Shilton signed for Forest back in 1977 was also the day Nottingham Forest fans in London created their supporters club branch. Its time to celebrate that landmark with the London Trickies 40th anniversary function which will be held at the Horseshoe pub, in Clerkenwell, on Saturday the 7th of October from 3.30pm.

Without shouting too much, we are expecting one or two Forest legends to join us on the day and it should be a great occasion. We will also have a prize draw and possibly one or two other surprises on the day.

This is an all ticket event and tickets, costing £20, are available from branch chairman, Stephen Moon at 32 Westminster Gardens , Barking, Essex. IG11 0BJ. Please send a stamped addressed envelope for the return of your tickets and cheques should be payable to Nottingham Forest S.C. London Branch.

Tickets have been initially restricted to members only as we are limited due to the size of the venue, but the branch would also welcome applications from any former members who have contributed to the success of the branch over the years.

RUDDINGTON SUPPORTER SEEKS

ASSISTANCE TO HOME MATCHES

27 May 2017
 
 
A Forest supporter in Ruddington is looking for a fellow fan to assist him in attending home matches at the City Ground next season.

Trevor Fermie has been a season ticket holder for over 30 years, but after developing Parkinson’s disease he has found it more and more difficult to attend home matches by himself. So much so that even though he purchased a season ticket last season he could not attend a single game.

Trevor explains, “I have an electric mobility scooter, but before I commit to a season ticket again next season I wondered if there was any Forest fans that would be willing to take me to matches. I would be willing to pay the costs for the carer to attend the matches and arrange for a taxi to and from my house to the ground.”

If you are interested in helping Trevor get to matches next season please send your contact details to us at enquiries@nottinghamforestsupportersclub.co.uk and we will pass them on to him.

STATEMENT FROM NOTTINGHAM FOREST

SUPPORTERS CLUB

20 May 2017
 

 
Nottingham Forest Supporters Club would like to welcome Mr Evangelos Marinakis and Mr Sokratis Kominakis as the new owners of Nottingham Forest Football Club. We would also like to welcome the clubs new Chairman, Nicholas Randall QC, Chief Executive Officer, Ioannis Vrentzos and all of the other new members of the senior management team that have been brought into the club by Mr Marinakis and Mr Kominakis.

The past few years have been a difficult time for the football club, both on and off the pitch, and we hope that the events over the past 48 hours heralds a more stable period for the club. We look forward to working with the new management team to forge closer ties between the club and its supporters, as we have done with the previous owners of the club over the past 40 years. The Official Nottingham Forest Supporters Club are proud of the long history of dialogue between ourselves and the club, representing the views of all of its supporters from over 50 branches around the world and we hope this will continue for many years to come.

We would also like to go on record in thanking the Al Hasawi family for their stewardship of the club over the past 5 years. Even though we did not agree with a lot of the decisions made by them over this time, the owners and their management team were always available to answer our questions and helped considerably with events the supporters club organised which involved the clubs players and management. We would especially like to thank Media & Communications Manager Ben White and Club Ambassador John McGovern for all of their time spent working with the supporters club and look forward to working with them again in the future.

The Management and Committee of Nottingham Forest Supporters Club

 
 



LONDON BRANCH HOST QPR WARM UP

5 May 2017
 
Forest legend Colin Barrett conducts the singing in a packed Garden Bar.

The result on the pitch last Saturday was not what we were looking for, but over 400 Forest fans enjoyed the pre match entertainment organised by the London branch of the supporters club and fan group Forza Garibaldi before our match against QPR. Simon Bristow from the London branch tells us more.
 
Whilst the result on Saturday wasn't what we all hoped for, and will leave Reds fans biting their nails down to the knuckle during 90 tortuous minutes against Ipswich on Sunday, the pre-match gathering at the Garden Bar epitomised everything that is joyous, wonderful and heart-warming about our great club. 
 
Forget the 90 minutes of football, because the 400 or so Trickies that were crammed into the Latimer Road pub had four hours of fun. There were flags (including the delightful new London Trickies standard), there was drinking, there was a full rendition of songs - old and new.
 
 
Simon (right) with fellow London branch member Tom Barber. 
 
And then there was Colin Barrett. Approaching four decades since, arguably, the most famous goal in Forest's history, Colin made the trip from Southwell to be part of the away day crowd. A rapturous ovation for his arrival was only bettered when Colin, stood atop the garden furniture, led his disciples in a performance of 'who put the ball in the scousers net'.
 
Whatever happens on Sunday, this season has seen the emergence of a strong togetherness amongst the fans. The outstanding work of Forza Garibaldi led to it working with the London Trickies to organise the day out in the Capital. It was great to be joined by the likes of Colin, Jonny Owen, Matt Forde, the team behind Bandy and Shinty and Helena Doughty - and it was equally great to hear the ovation her brother, Michael, received when he came on for QPR. 
 
Forest is a unique family, one that we should continue to treasure, whatever league we're in next season.
 
If you would like to join the London branch of the supporters club contact Michael Helme on 07841 403989 and you can find out about the branches upcoming events by following them on Twitter at @LondonTrickies.
 


 



FAN OF THE SEASON AWARD

2 May 2017
 
Garath Levine of the Charnwood branch collecting his Fan of the Year award at the Supporters Clubs 2017 awards night.
 
At the recent Nottingham Forest Supporters Club annual Player of the Season dinner the Fan of the Season Award was presented to Charnwood Branch member Gareth Lavine. He was nominated by branch secretary Paul Middleton. Here is Paul's nomination for Gareth, I'm sure you will agree he is a deserving recipient.

I would like to nominate Gareth Lavine of the Charnwood Branch for his continued help, enthusiasm and commitment. Everything he does is with Nottingham Forest and our members in mind.

The Charnwood Branch try where possible to travel to most away games by coach, or in personnel transport where numbers do not warrant a coach, and Gareth (Gaz) is always there to help myself organise our days out. We are building a branch with members of all ages being involved and we have had social events to raise funds throughout the season and once again Gaz has been there to be the quiz master and compare.

The main reason for nominating Gaz is that he suffers from Crohn’s disease and over the last 3 years he has been very ill. He had a lengthy stay in hospital during the 2014/15 season but he still helped where possible to organise away days from his hospital bed.
This season he has had numerous set backs with Crohn’s but he has always put others first. He has also been on a strict diet to help with his illness and he has lost nearly 5 stone by keeping a very strict fitness regime, swimming approximately a mile 3 times a week, and sticking to a healthy diet. Not easy when we are all eating burgers and pies on match days!
 

On top of this he runs a mini kicker soccer school for children aged 4 to 16 years of age on a weekly basis in his local village. Not forgetting running his own taxi business and providing for his wife and family, and not once has he moaned!
As you will see from the photo’s Gaz is Forest through and through, they show one of his proudest moments with two of his heroes when he was a mascot for the day when he was 11 years old. He also played as a youth team player during his younger years.

I cannot think of anybody who deserves this nomination more than Gaz. He is a great man and a friend to many.
 



 


PLAYER OF THE SEASON AWARDS

28 April 2017
 
Newark branch member Joshua Ridyard presents Eric Lichaj with his branches award.

Nottingham Forest Supporters Club held its annual Player of the Season dinner on the 22nd of April in the Robin Hood Suite at the City Ground. As always, supporters club members from branches all over the country and beyond came together to present their branch player of the season awards, as well as witnessing the main prize's being awarded to the player of the season and young player of the season.

This year's awards were a clean sweep for defender Eric Lichaj, who was chosen by every branch presenting trophies on the night as their player of the season, as well as picking up the main award on the night. Eric has started nearly every game for Forest this season, including scoring some vital goals against Birmingham City and Huddersfield Town at the City Ground.

It was no surprise the David Howard Award for Young Player of the Season went to 18 year old Ben Brereton who has made an amazing impact in his debut season for the first team, scoring 3 goals, being called up to the England Under 19 team and also receiving the award for Championship Apprentice of the Season earlier this year.

The Gedling branch also presented two special awards to Danny Fox and Ben Osborn for their performances for the club throughout the season. The Fan of the Season was also awarded to Charnwood branch member Gareth Lavine who we will feature more on in a future piece on the website.

Here is the full list awards presented on the night and who won them;

The Supporters Club are pleased to announce that we are selling copies of Philip Soar's excellent book The Official History of Nottingham Forest for only £5, original cover price £25, in The Boat Club on home match days. 

This 264 page hardback book is a special reprint of the original 1998 publication to celebrate our 150th anniversary, with a new chapter covering all the way up to 2015. It includes the story of how the club was founded in 1865, through chapters on our FA Cup victories of 1898 & 1959, to the success of the Brian Clough era and beyond. It also includes detailed results & records of all of Nottingham Forest's seasons up until 1998.

But The Boat Club on Trentside, close to The Trent End Stand, will have them available for sale on home match days at the front entrance.

SUPPORTERS CLUB PLAYER Q&A EVENING

21 February 2017
 

Audience members at one of last season's Q&A evenings.
 
Nottingham Forest Supporters Club will be hosting another of their popular Question and Answer nights on the 23rd of March when supporters club members and their guests will be able to ask members of the Nottingham Forest first team questions on all things Forest.

This will be the supporters club's first Pie & Peas evening of the year, which in previous seasons has seen club ambassador John McGovern and players including Eric Lichaj, Chris Cohen and Jack Hobbs as our special guests. As yet, we have not had confirmation from the club on which players will be attending next months event, but it is hoped that at least 2 will be attendance on the night.

The Robin Hood suite at the City Ground will once again be the venue, with the evening kicking off at 6.30pm with pie, peas and gravy being served to all attendees. The Q&A will then commence at 7.30pm when our guests will be answering questions from the audience.
 
Tickets are now on sale priced at £6 per person and can be purchased from Joan Bakewell by phone on 0115 956 1227, via email at joanbakewell@ntlworld.com, or directly, at The Boat Club on match days.


 



MANSFIELD BRANCH WALKING FOOTBALL TEAM

13 February 2017
 

The Mansfield branch of the supporters club has been running a successful over 50's walking football team for a number of years. Peter Mitchell gives us an update on the team's progress.
 
The Mansfield Branch of Nottingham Forest Supporters Club formed an Over 50's Walking Football section under the title 'Mansfield Senior Reds'. They have been going for 3 years & are the current Nottinghamshire Over 50 champions & have won two consecutive annual tournament titles in Spain. This year they will be competing in Portugal.
 
In addition to playing they have a strong community ethic & have raised significant sums for local charities. They recently held a charity evening & raised just over £1,000 which was divided between three causes, the John Eastwood Hospice at Mansfield and two local individuals with cancer who have come to the end of their NHS treatment with the only option private treatment which requires expensive funding.

Good luck to the Mansfield branch in their upcoming tournament in Portugal, we look forward to hearing how they get on later in the year.
