Right Wingers scream that society has failed because kids 20 years ago were given Participation Trophies. Well now their dear leader has a Did Not Participate Trophy and the actual champions had to get a replica.

Not that it matters, as the United States is looking much like a replica of the United States in any case.

The Nottingham Forest owner is making Brian Clough look normal and predictable.

This Morgan Gibbs-White transfer saga... just let him go, please. Yes, Forest will be relegated now that our two best players are gone and no-one can serve that big lump of a Kiwi up front, but remembering van Hooijdonk, I'd rather have Gibbs-White gone than him making noises and souring the atmosphere.
