Strange thing that Forest's City Ground is in West Bridgford and Notts County's ground is in the City. Sad to see County struggling but it is not that long ago BUFC played them in the League.

It's not THAT long since we played Bournemouth as equals! Crazy.
and they scored our first league goal if memory serves me right

Neil Young, went on to manage Chester against us a few seasons ago.

He's got a heart of gold

I'm pretty sure that the Bournemouth Neil Young and the Chester Neil Young are two different people.

And neither of them are singers.

But I once got contributed a link to The Chain on the then Radio 2's Radcliffe and Maconie show (which links from one record to another) going from Boston's More than a Feeling to Neil Young's Cinnamon Girl by pointing out who scored our first goal in the football league....

Champs next year

In spite of all the ups and downs this season, we ended up only 7 points off the play-offs. The phrase "if only" applies to some of those matches we should have won but didn`t.

Had we had a top strike (like we have Miller/Southwell in prevous seasons that made playoffs) that scored 25+ might have been enough to close the gap.

Maybe we need a gaffer who can sign one of those goalscoring strikers. Don't hold your breath 2 long 4 CE 2 do that pre season!! I still maintain if he was equipped 2 do that it would have been this season. Major concern.

food for thought.

won 17 games of which 11 were against the bottom six teams.
only 4 victories against the 10 sides above us in the league
obviously only 6 victories against the rest of the league.

10 defeats at home. cant remember when that last happened.
but only 8 points off the play offs.
60 goals against us in the league.

sums up the league this year.

Vast improvement  needed all over the team for next year.

I am concerned that a lot of the current squad have been re-signed.
