Unlucky about not winning the title but that new signing looks beast so hopefully next year, with a few more signings, you can win the league and get far in the Champions League!
American regens ftw! Enrique Diez looks like a stud, too.
Very close you were to win and you've had your chance. How well does the new player. I wish you luck, and I hope you win the championship now!
Diez looks awesome! Good season too, next time you'll win the league, don't worry!

The Host Of World Cup 2038 Is!!!?


After a lot of lobbying and negotiating I can announce that the English F.A voted for Egypt to host the World Cup, but they did not win the bid. I think it is a shame because we need to introduce it to new countries and I can not help but think that the Football World has missed a trick here.

It is actually the U.S.A who are celebrating and will host there second World Cup and the first since 1994. They already have the infrastructure and apparently will possibly be using some american football grounds to host the games too. I think it will be exciting but KI wanted it to go to Africa again.



One thing for sure, England will need to get there as they missed out on USA 94.
Awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!

Forest Unveil New Stadium


Today I had the delight of opening our new Stadium to the public. It has took 3 years to build but in a deal that also see's them sponsor the Stadium they also now sponsor our shirts.

The City Ground is a football stadium in the West Bridgford area of Nottingham, Nottinghamshire, England, on the banks of the River Trent. It has been home to Nottingham Forest Football Club since 1898, and has an all-seated capacity of 30,602.

The stadium was a venue when England hosted Euro 96, and is only three hundred yards away from Meadow Lane, home of Forest's neighbouring club Notts County; the two grounds are the closest professional football stadiums in England and the second closest in the United Kingdom after the grounds of Dundee F.C. and Dundee United. They are located on opposite sides of the River Trent.

The City Ground is the 23rd largest club football ground in England.

Nottingham Forest moved to their new ground on 3 September 1898 – 33 years after their formation and six years after election to the Football League.

The Main Stand was largely rebuilt in 1965 but on 24 August 1968 fire broke out during a First Division game against Leeds United. The stand was subsequently burned to the ground but thankfully, despite a crowd of 31,126, there were no casualties. The fire started, probably in the dressing room area, just before half-time and, as much of it was built of wood, it spread rapidly and the whole stand went up in flames. As a result Forest played six 'home' matches at nearby Meadow Lane and did not win one of them. Sadly many of the club’s records, trophies, memorabilia etc. were lost in the fire. The stand was rebuilt with a capacity of 5,708.

In June 2007, Nottingham Forest announced plans to leave the City Ground after more than 100 years, with the aim of Nottingham having a ground suitable to hold matches for the 2018 World Cup, for which England is a bidding nation. The City Ground was deemed unsuitable, even with expansion, due to the areas that needed to be available for fan parks around the stadium; the City Ground is in a dense urban area, surrounded by private housing, businesses and industry. The initial plan was to move to a new purpose built stadium in Clifton towards the south of the city, forming part of a new housing and leisure development. However, this location was soon changed to a site at Gamston due to logistical problems surrounding plans for a Clifton ground, such as potential matchday pressures on the proposed Nottingham Express Transit tram extension and the A453. Plans for the Gamston ground were exhibitied to the FA World Cup committee in 2009, and Nottingham's plans for a new ground and waterside Fan Park using the River Trent, meant they were successful in getting through to the next stage of potential host cities for the 2018 World Cup bid, even beating plans by neighbours Derby and Leicester, who already had new stadiums but were eliminated from the Host City pool. However, objection from Gamston residents and its out-of-town location has meant that more recently, this Stadium site has changed again, with the City Council looking towards an area of wasteland currently being redeveloped, known as Eastside, around a mile to the East of the city centre near the Sneinton area. Although the plans are still preliminary, any such ground would seat 40,000–70,000 people.


The City Ground has now closed

There were previously plans to rebuild the City Ground's Main Stand (on the condition that Forest return to the Premier League) – a plan which would make the ground up to around 40,000 capacity. However, Forest now justified the new ground plan over the previously proposed City Ground Main Stand extension by suggesting that the current 'new' stands (Trent End, Brian Clough Stand, Bridgford Stand) are in a state which, 10 years down the line, would be money intensive on club funds, along with other complex FIFA host ground restrictions.

Possible stadium names have even been suggested by some supporters, including the Brian Clough Arena, the New City Ground, City of Nottingham Stadium, and the Robin Hood Arena.

They did decide to call it The Brian Clough Arena and the inside of the Stadium is going to be piled with Fly Emirates advertising Hoardings as they are now our new sponsor's its capacity will be 69,750 and we can now properly compete with the big boys!

New Shirts




They are lovely new shirts and I am happy to announce Fly Emirates as Nottingham Forest's new sponsors.
Nice shirt !
Congratulations new Stadium!

Argentine Superstar Signs For The Reds


I have signed Argentine Attacking Midfielder/Attacking Midfielder Mario Cantillana for £19,750,000 which means Monaco, now starting to get into financial trouble had to sell the world class midfielder and I was first in the line to snap him up.



So who is Cantillana, I hear you ask?

Well Cantillana is truly one of world football's global superstars. He made his Argentine debut against Tunisia in March 2023 at the age of 22 and has gone on to make 34 appearances for his country in which he has bagged 2 goals.

Mario Cantillana starte dhis career at River Plate in April 2014, breaking into the first-team in 2019 and only made 3 league appearances. In August 2020 Malaga took a shot on him and paid £2,300,000 and he went on to make 50 league appearances for the Spanish club and scored 3 goals.

In July 2022 he joined fellow La Liga team Real Sociedad for £3,900,000 and he made 39 appearances and scored 7 goals. Cantillana's spell at Sociedad didn't last long and in August 2023 English Premier League team Chelsea signed him for £22,500,000 and made 85 league appearances and scored 7 goals in his 3 year spell. He won Gold at the Olympic games in 2024, the F.A Cup in 2024 and 2026 and won the Capital One Cup in 2024.

Cantillana joined Monaco for £20,000,000 in August 2026 and made 34 league appearances and scored 7 goals but Monaco are starting to struggle financially so he has been sold to Forest for £19,750,000.

Cantillana has also earned recognition from the football community for his achievements and was shortlisted for the World Golden Ball Award.

I am happy to be out of France and English Football really suits my style and I can not wait to pull on a Red Shirt
So you have Messi 2.0 a new stadium and nice kits. This was a great offseason

Good Month With A Road Bump For The Reds


We only had three Premier League Matches but we also made a trip to China to play one match that we had to as in terms of our agreement.

The best match came against Villa and Enrique Diez has started his career off very well with 3 goals in 3 Premier League games.

Our first match was in our Brand New Stadium and it was against newly promoted Everton. We were never looking like losing it either with two goals from new signing Diez which included a penalty and we wee comfortable winners.

We then played Man Utd and got spanked 3-1. Vadala got one back in the second half but when you go into half time at Old Trafford 3-0 down you know you are fucked!

We then had the match of our lives at home to Villa. Piter scored a hattrick in the first 7 minutes! Villa however got 3 back but we were not to be defeated and Diez got the winner in the 87th minute and Villa claimed offside but it was not given. It was harsh on Villa who really have there act together now but we were too strong.

Premier League Table


It is Early so you can see the table but it all means nothing until next month.

Champions League Draw



All in all I am chuffed to bits with that group. It could not have got any better. Yes Bayern are going to be tough but Luke will be going back to his old club and I can not wait for this to get started.

Capital One Cup Draw



We got Man City which is undoubtedly the tie of the round and I can not wait to try and win Forest there first trophy. It is a long time coming and we have made the Semi Finals for the last two season's now.

Upcoming Fixtures



We have a tough month this month and it starts with Newcastle in the Premier League, then we have Porto coming to town followed by Swansea and then Man City in the Capital One Cup. We finish with Bayern at the end of the month.

Forest Player Of The Month


Enrique Diez has had a storming start to his Forest Career and duly picks up the player of the month. If he was this good this month he is going to be fucking awesome for the season.
Nice update, that Argentinian looks good! Nice kits too
