Forest have kicked on brilliantly since difficult FAC matches against higher division sides.  All credit to them.  There were never in the running for automatic promotion a few months ago.

Boreham Wood had 5 clean sheets in a very good cup run (ironically, beating Bournemouth away).
Since then their results have collapsed.  The polar opposite of Forest.

Forest were bottom when Steve Cooper took over at the end of September. No mean feat that.


A smooth sea never made a skillful mariner.

Quoted from grimsbybrown
In every other situation (assuming I’d bring myself to care enough) I’d probably want Forest to win.

In this situation, given we directly benefit if Bournemouth win there is no decision to make - it’s a no brainer - Bournemouth to win all the way.

Of course, once we’ve pocketed the sell-on cash, I’d shed no tears if Bournemouth came straight back down.


Even if we profit from Bournemouth getting promoted, no way I want them to win, I have principles and prefer to stick with them, money or no money.

Yep, I'm with you both on this. They're in there with the likes of Rotherham, Wigan, Bury, etc. Clubs that are an absolute circus and in the shit financially one season, then they avoid admin and suck up a points deduction for the next season season and then have the top budget in their division the season after that.

Christ, we must be one of the few clubs that have paid their debts and look where it’s gotten us.

Oh well hopefully we’re on the up now.

What a shocking list of clubs defaulting.
Most have survived even if they have had to come back from the bottom

Not sure how Aldershot (1992)s experience counts as cheating. They were the first club since Accrington to fold during a season. The phoenix club started I believe at level 8 and backed by fans came back the hard way.


The aim of argument or discussion should not be victory but progress.

Quoted from The Yard Dog


Even if we profit from Bournemouth getting promoted, no way I want them to win, I have principles and prefer to stick with them, money or no money.


How far back do you want to go with principles?

Wedges of cash in brown paper envelopes to seal a transfer ahead of the competition - Clough and, therefore, Forest don’t come out well from that.

Don’t get me wrong, the cynical use of administration has not been a good thing for football in any way, hence the points deductions, but, within the law of the land, it remains a legitimate action.

Given the length and extent of your list, at what point do we move on?

(Mind you seeing Portsmouth on there still rankles given what they owed us.)
