Thought Deuce would like this since no one else here gives a hoot. __________________

Aren't they like in the 7th Division or something like that? If they ever do make it to the Premiership it won't be for at least another 30 years or so.

That would mean they would actually have to do well both those years. I just don't see it happening. I think that 30 years is much more realistic. | |||||

I hope Deuce is right. It'd be nice to see Forrest playing Saints in the prem again. 😉

Forest struggled for much of the 2005-2006 season before they sacked their coach and immediately went on a tear, I think they went something like 7 wins 2 draws and 1 loss. (Hmmm anyone else wonder what might occur to RSL if someone was let go?) The Red got right on the edge of playoff qualification and I think actually reached 6th (last playoff spot) in the table before dropping a game or two and finishing 8th or so.
If they can carry that momentum over to the upcoming season, maybe they can get into the Coca-Cola League or whatever's its called now. (Funny how "league one" is really the third flight in England.) Hey it took them less than 30 years to drop from being European Champs all the way down to League One, so certainly they can move back up you would think. | |||||
