October 11 Palace 3 Forest 1 | Shocking finishing costs Reds | VAR and Delap moments pivotal
Matt Davies is joined by Chris Aylmer, Mark Sutherns and former Reds midfielder Lewis McGugan for the post match show as Nottingham Forest lost 3-1 Crystal Palace in the Premier League.

October 02 Our brilliant day at Forest listening to Oliver Glasner
Matt Davies and Pete Blackburn headed to the Nigel Doughty Academy on Thursday as Nottingham Forest held an open training session and welcomed children from Kirkby Woodhouse Primary School as well as 20 grassroots football coaches from across Nottinghamshire.
We watched the 10 players who aren't on international duty train before Glasner and his coaching staff worked with the children in a special training session. Glasner then held a Q&A with the coaches led by Andy Reid before finally the Forest manager sat down with us for a interview. You'll hear part one of that today with the second part focusing on the first team to be released soon. #nffc #nottinghamforest
