Nice move from the club this and ensures that a part of Forest's history remains in its rightful place: https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/5809134...am-forest/

OK - this is weird. Randall is returning as Chairman.

More like Tom Cartledge didn't get his move to Toton and I suspect a Stadium Expansion announcements will be soon.

Quite possible.

How very random. I can't quite work that move out to be honest.

Sounds very much like what happened, thought his motives were suspicious from Day 1. That said Ive never particularly liked Randall either, more hot air than a balloon.

I am 100% making up what I suspect has happened but reckon if it was up to Tom we would already have diggers moving in to Toton. He thought he could buy some land with a huge government subsidy, get his company to build a stadium with a few extra add ons, training ground, netball centre, hotel etc and make a big profit. The idea sounds good, the location is terrible but he didn’t care and thought he could get it through.
Luckily once again we have an owner who seems to understand what a football club is actually about and that some things are more important however good the financial incentives.

Quite possibly…or could be the opposite…

I did have a conversation with someone last week that they had tendered for the complete demolition of both bridgford and main stand including 15 residential properties… so it could be true…

Looks like the Club are ramping up a crack down on ensuring that away tickets are being used and by the right people.

Firstly they have written to away members following a review of usage of the Brighton allocation, which they believe confirms that over 300 tickets went unused. Apparently from the Chelsea match onwards if you buy a ticket and it doesn’t get scanned on entry that ticket will not be shown on your booking history going forward.

Also, four away members have had their memberships suspended for attempting to sell their Chelsea tickets on X, having found that they could no longer attend.

I think this is great by the Club and will ensure that fans who want to go have a better chance of getting tickets.

Have they really? It has got to be fair, but at the sane time if people are selling at face value and not trying to make a profit this also gives opportunity to fans to buy tickets that wouldn't normally have an opportunity.

It's a tough one to try and manage for the club.

I've liked the ballot system this season, it's fair and it's then far easier to plan away games and purchasing a ticket.
