December 27, 2025 Nottingham Forest 1 Man City 2 match verdict | Deserved more!
Nottingham Forest were beaten 2-1 by Manchester City in the Premier League at the City Ground. It was a brave performance from Forest, who deserved to take something from the game after Omari Hutchinson made it 1-1. Rayan Cherki was instrumental for City and he hit the winner when Forest felt Morgan Gibbs-White was fouled. Matt Davies is joined by Paul Morley and Adam Summerton, fresh from commentating on the game for TNT Sports. #nffc #nottinghamforest

December 26, 2025 Nottingham Forest's greatest ever player John Robertson | A tribute
Nottingham Forest's greatest ever player, John Robertson, died at the age of 72 on Christmas Day after suffering from Parkinson's disease for a number of years. Robertson was a league title winner and the man who set up Trevor Francis' goal against Malmo in the 1979 European Cup final. A year later he scored the winner himself against Hamburg.
In our tribute, we hear from Robertson's former teammate Garry Birtles, broadcaster Darren Fletcher and podcast regular Steve Battlemuch to give the fan point of view on a great player and great man. #nffc #nottinghamforest

December 23, 2025 Why are Nottingham Forest so inconsistent? | January transfer plans | Man City preview
Nottingham Forest are 17th in the Premier League as they lurch from the sublime to the not sublime at Fulham. It wasn't a ridiculously bad performance but why are Forest so inconsistent under Sean Dyche in terms of performances?
We'll reflect on the 1-0 defeat at Craven Cottage, discuss January transfer plans as Everton winger Dwight McNeil is targeted and we'll preview the next game against Manchester City. #nffc #nottinghamforest
