Re: 2017 Mega Drive Championship

Was a great day, guys. Standout moment for me was Ross making the Mega Bomberman finals tense; probably equalled by Gareth's filthy elevator shenanigans. :D All good fun.

Re: Nottingham Forest FC

I have predicted a lower mid-table finish for Forest.

This will still represent a huge improvement on the dross we witnessed last season.

Re: Nottingham Forest FC

Whilst things across the UK become more and more unstable by the day, it is good to see Nottingham Forest bucking the trend and actually stabilising under our new Greek overlord.

Good times might just be ahead...

Re: Nottingham Forest FC

Well, it all comes down to this - relying on sodding Brentford! This Forest side deserves to go down. No fight, no ambition, no hope. If they do stay up, it will only stay the execution. A Forest side owned and mismanaged by Fawaz will continue to slide further and further down. Each season he has b...

Re: Nottingham Forest FC

Precisely, the Brighton game must serve as a reminder to Derby that they are not just going to win by virtue of turning up. They will have a game on their hands - which is more than we gave them at Pride Park, or whatever it is called these days.

If their clueless 75 minutes against Brentford, and their hopeless 90 minutes against Burton are anything to go by, Derby will give us a hiding.

Re: 2017 Mega Drive Championship

Hi Ross.

We currently have no fixed date, but we have a few in mind. We will need to secure these dates with the venue prior to announcing them, however, we are hoping to be rolling out the 2017 Mega Drive Championships roughly around the same time of year as the last one.
