Keegans Notes

Sometimes in life you just have to take the rough with the smooth don't you. We definitely found our scoring shoes this month since we scored in every match we played in which combined into 21 goals! there were two hat-tricks scored by two different Croatian players and Zulu and Pingoto finally showed fans why I have been very patient with them.

There have been reports in the papers too that I have a 38 year old son, I had no idea until I read the Guardian either! I have sent off a DNA swab sample to find out if this is infact true. I am afraid to say I got drunk a long time ago and had a one night stand with Kerry Katona. Yes I know I was stupid as she was also very drunk but she was very, very good!

Has Keegan got a love child with this woman?

On that bombshell this months performances have been a remarkable improvement! We actually started like a train at Watford. Pingoto hit a long ball forward and Ante Rebic ran onto it and then smashed the ball home to make it 1-0 to us. Watford hit back on the 32nd minute with there first chance on goal. At half time I told the guys to knuckle down and get there backsides into gear. We won a corner in which Pingoto whipped it is and Zajicek, who has been a good player since signing from Aston Villa headed it in! That is 2-1 to us and can we finally put the match to bed. Rebic then finished a free kick to bring home a much needed 3 points.

At full time I told them all that we were amazing in the second half. Ante and Ping are really playing well. Our next match was at home against Reading and this was one hell of a match. I told the lads to continue there good form and dispatch Reading. Pingoto, on the 18th minute bought down an Ahmad Moncer ball and he twisted through 2 defenders and hit a gorgeous chip over the stranded goalkeeper to make it 1-0. That is how it stayed until Half Time, where I said to them that I wanted them to kick on and put Reading to the sword. We dominated the start of the second half but gave away a cheap free kick where Warren James dispatched a free kick to equalise against the run of play and I was fuming! Then on the 63rd minute Zajicek hit a bullet header to make it 2-1. I had bought on Neil Bowers to devastating effect when the young Northern Irishman hit two in 8 minutes to make it 4-1! Reading hit two back but it was too late and we had held on to win. I told the lads that I was exceptionally pleased.

Next up was West Ham and I gave a start to Gabriele Ghedin, which ended up a very good idea. I told the lads that West Ham have not scored in 3 matches and are 5 matches lost away from home. The match started and I could not wait to see how my record signing would do, it was a good chance for him to prove himself. In the 5th minute Gajski broke the deadlock when Ante played a 1-2 with Pingoto who had drifted inside for Gadjski to finish for 1-0. Then in the 22nd minute Gabriele Ghedin finally got the goal that he was looking for. The pleasing thing is that he did it all on his own. He picked the ball up on the half way line and from 30 yards out he thrashed the ball home. Damir then grabbed his second from a header on the corner and then bagged his hat-trick when Ghedin and Pingoto combined together to set up Gadjski to hit his 3rd. The second half saw Ghedin grab his second goal and West Ham then got two consolation goals. I was again happy with the performance and I told the team so.

Then on BT Sport we played Arsenal, but we might aswell not have turned up. They were 2 up by half time and then by 63 minutes we were 4-0 down. Zulu, the only player to come out of the match with any credit then scored a consolation free kick.

I should have gone mad at my team but I decided not to because Fulham were up next and I really wanted to have them go into that game thinking they can win it. I made some changes though and Danny Welbeck was given a start.

It worked! We had a boring first half with only 3 chances. I told them to get out there and put Fulham to the sword and that they did. Pingoto sped down the left wing and then delivered a cross in for Danny Welback to power home for 1-0. Our defence were very impressive today which made a change but I was wanting a second goal, they made me wait until the 83rd minute when we won a corner, which was delivered perfectly for a big centre back to head home, thank god Lewis King was on the end of this one then....Another victory this month and I told them that too.

We then went to Man City and took the lead through Rebic, in what could be a contender for goal of the season, he picked up the ball and must have skinned every single player on the itch and rounded the keeper to pass into the empty net. But with 5 minutes before half time Man City hit two back. I told the guy at half time to keep up the good work. Bennett equalised on the 50th minute but then we struggled and Man City ended up winning 5-2!

I told the guys that we need to win against Villa because Eddie Howe has been saying that we are shit to be honest. I posted pictures of the newspaper cuttings that Howe said, the players were definitely fired up. Zulu opened the scoring for us and we did not look back after that as Antonio Cirjek, who has not been in the goalscoring form hit his first for nine hours when smashing home a free kick, Cirjek then scored his second before half time to send us back to the changing rooms 3-0 up and I didn't have to say much just to carry on from where they have left off. On the 64th minute Cirjak completed an amazing hat-trick when he drilled home a free kick.

League Table

[/URL]

We are doing well, We are now in the top half of the table and this time last season we were in the relegation zone so it shows just how good we are getting.

Transfer Rumours

We are in the market for a right back and also a left midfielder. Rumours are that Raheem Stirling is on my wanted list. I have worked with him when England Boss and he won the Ukrainian title, he would be a perfect fit into my squad. He has been linked with a 15,000,000 move.
[URL=https://imageshack.com/i/0jii9uj]

Sterling could be moving to the City Ground

The other guy who has been linked is Argentine Nicolas Acosta. Acosta, 23 plays for FC Lorient and I have been to watch him a few times but Lorients 9,000,000 price tag might put me off.

Will Acosta be Forest's next signing?
Man, you have to stop drinking!:p
Some great results and plenty of goals too. You ought to reveal more love childs in the future ;)
AAN Agreed haha, but least i did a goodun when drunk

Paddy Yeah loads of goals and I only have one love child i think hehe
is there enough booze really? i mean come on! impressive amount of goals being scored looks like the big money transfers have paid off. whats sterling looking like after his spell in the ukraine? surprising he's not in a gulag somewhere really.

Autors Notes


Thanks for reading this story everyone I love the fact this is the

200th post!!!


Keegans Notes

I today signed 3 players, all young and only one is ready in my view to play for the first team at the moment.


The guy that comes in ready to play straight away is Fabio Labbadini. The 22 year old is an italian with a growing reputation amongst football fans in England. Fabio began his career at Atalanta in 2014 but he amazingly failed to make even one appearance, he was on the bench several times so then was loaned to Getafe for a season onc ehe had been signed by Manchester City for £4,400,000. At Getafe he played 32 times and scored twice. After that season loan he was sent on loan to Stoke where he made 5 appearances scoring 1 goal. Then he went back to Man City and made 5 appearances for them scoring 1 goal. Then followed a disappointing loan spell at Blackburn so Man City sold him for just £300,000.

I also signed Norweigan Oddgar Nygard, 20 from Tromso for free. The talented youngster is destined for big things and was loaned straight out to Bolton. I have high hopes for him


The last signing for me to announce is 16 year old attacking winger Hatib Kinteh. Kinteh originally from The Gambia, was founded by Hawks, a semi professional club there but was picked up by Cagliari when he was released by Hawks. Although he did not make one appearance from the Italian side he was picked up by us for £7,250,000. I am ecstatic about this signing and along with Ghedin these two are going to be Forest's future.
Nice updates and that 16 year old looks beast.
Labbiadini looks great
Bayern Thanks yeah I think he is, has actually played for me this month too, not the end to my transfers though I dont think I am light in a couple of positions

Paddy Thanks I think he is a bargain for 300k
Very good prospects mate!
AAN Thanks mate :)

Keegans Notes

This month has again been a rollercoaster as usual.The transfer window has been open and I signed 3 youngsters at the start and followed up with two more at the end of the month. More on them later.

I called a team meeting at the beginning of this month and told the players that we must finish in the top half of the table but if we can aim for the top 7. My new signings have now fitted in well and the January signings, which I kept to a minimum this month because I don't want to upset the balance of the team look to be settling in well too. I bought in a Indonesian/Indian left winger as back up to Ante Rebic and an Argentine left/right back as cover for the full back positions.

The first game was on Eurosport against Southampton and we raced out of the blocks and Pingoto gave us a 26th minute lead when he curled a free kick into the top left hand corner from all of 35 yards out, it was a special goal for a special player. I told the guys at half time that we were on top and w ehad to make it count..... But we couldn't as Southampton scored 3 in a 15 minute frenzy. We defended horribly in the second half and were punished.

We then had the F.A Cup 3rd round against Charlton Athletic. They are flying high in the Championship and this was the Damir Gadjski show and he got the goal he deserved on the 70th minute when Pingoto hit the post from a free kick and Gadjski was in the right place at the right time. His effect was absolutely storming and I am blessed to have such a superstar in my squad.

If I thought he was good against the addicks then I was blown away against Norwich. Hatib Kinteh was an unused sub because I didnt need him as Patrik Hooiveld set up Damir for 2 goals. His first was wonderful individual skill by Hooiveld to feed the ball through to a on rushing Gajski who chipped it over Kupesanin in the Norwich goal. At half time I stressed that we were not to give up the lead. We didn't and on the 83rd minute we doubled our lead through Gadjski and Hooiveld again. Hooiveld had his best game for us in a red shirt this season when he chipped it over the defence for Damir to rifle a volley home and win us the match.

For the MK Dons match though I gave 16 year old Hatib Kinteh his debut and I was fully justified in choosing him. We started well and Antonio Cirjak, who I partnered with Hatib because of his experience was the guy who struck first. Kinteh's selection obviously confused MK Dons a bit and it was his speed in picking up a dodgy back pass and then he coolly and calmly slotted it into the path of Cirjak for him to tap into the open goal. On the 11th minute the 16 year old debutee became Nottingham Forest's youngest ever goal scorer when he outran the Dons defence to rifle into the net for 2-0 and this youngster was starting to look Ace! The dons got one back before half time but I told them I thought they it in them to win the match and on the 57th minute the all action Kinteh won a corner for Bionzi to head home for 3-1. I considered subbing the 16 year old Kinteh but I was glad I didn't because he expertly hit a 4th goal for us and his second of the match when he ran from the half way line and played a one two with portugese international Zulu to cool slot home for 4-1! I was in dreamland but my Forest team do nothing easily and MK got 2 late goals but we held on for 4-3.

This was a good win but next up was a trip to Newcastle live on ITV Sport. I do not want us to play on TV anymore because we always get destroyed. Newcastle were excellent in the second half. We were good in the first half, we hit the post 3 times but it was Zajicek who got the opener from the corner. We were soundly beaten and I praise Newcastle completely.

The F.A Cup 4th round against Doncaster was a easy victory. Antonio bagged a brace, one from a free kick where he connected with a header. King and Zajicek were rocks in the defence. I told them at half time we were in control and now had to finish the job. We did Lewis got a goal from a corner, we are very good at corners and deserve to score as many as we do because we practice set pieces a lot!. Cirjak finished the job off for a 3-1 victory and tie with Bolton or Norwich.

We then played Middlesboro in the Premiership and it was a tight affair but when Welbeck scored a delightful chip in added on time of the first half I was jumping up and down because Middlesboro might aswell not of turned up. The second half and Middlesboro did not even help themselves in the second half and in reality Cirjak and Kinteh could have had a hat-trick so even though we won 1-0 I feel it should and could have been more.

Transfer Deadline Day



Nehemia has joined as back up to Ante Rebic for £7,250,000 and I am thrilled he has arrived. He will be the first Indonesian/Indian International to play for Nottingham Forest in the Premier League. He has 15 international caps to his name and 3 goals. Fabriansyan was founded at Hearts in Scotland but was releases after being told he would not make the cut, he did make 31 appearances and scored 5 goals for the club over 4 years. The half Indonesian half Indian then moved to AZ. He made 22 appearances and scored 3 goals before moving to the City Ground for just over seven million.


Nicolas Acosta, 23 signs for £12,000,000, I love this guy, I have watched him for about 4 months now and comes in as a challenge to Sam Byram and Adam Smith because he can play in both Left and Right back. Acosta started his career at River Plate in 2012 and broke into there first team 5 years later playing a total of 16 times which earnt him a £275,000 move to FC Lorient in France and made 97 appearances. I think I could have had a season ticket in France and I eventually landed my man with 30 minutes of the Deadline day remaining.

Stoke remain in second and are serious title challengers but we are 9th and I feel we are only going to get higher but I did say it would be the top half and we are on the way to it.
Really good update and some nice signings :)
Pompey thanks I am very happy with them
Doing well, Jason!
