CHELSEA 1 NOTTINGHAM FOREST 1 MATCH REVIEW | SELS HAS HIS MOMENT AS REDS RESOLVE EARNS A POINT

Podcast viewers and listeners often ask us to examine the performances of Matz Sels in depth at Nottingham Forest as he occasionally comes under scrutiny for goals, as well as earning praise for his saves, as he did in the draw against Chelsea. With that in mind we spend an hour looking at key incidents in Sels' Reds career, as well as reviewing his deputy Carlos Miguel after joining in the summer from Corinthians. Matt Davies is joined by Harrogate Town and former Bristol Rovers goalkeeper James Belshaw to give his take on both and what goes into being a professional keeper. 🍻 We're grateful for the support of our main sponsors, the Trent Navigation Inn.

The international break is over but Nottingham Forest only have four more Premier League games before the next one! Could those next four games decide the direction the season with three at home against Crystal Palace, West Ham and Newcastle United while the Reds also go to Steve Cooper's Leicester City. Matt Davies is joined by Greg Mitchell, Michael Temple and Reds legend Garry Birtles to discuss improving home form, last week's FA fine of £750,000 for the post Everton tweet, training ground investment and reported interest in Nikola Milenkovic. #NFFC #nottinghamforest 🙏 Do like and subscribe to our channel.

Nottingham Forest have been fined £750,000 for their tweet after defeat to Everton at the end of the 2023/24 Premier League season. Forest lost the game 2-0 but were furious after three penalty appeals were rejected by referee Anthony Taylor and VAR Stuart Attwell, now famously tweeting 'Three extremely poor decisions - three penalties not given - which we simply cannot accept. We warned the PGMOL that the VAR is a Luton fan before the game but they didn’t change him. Our patience has been tested multiple times. NFFC will now consider its options.' That tweet has been viewed more than 46m times with the FA now hitting Forest with their second biggest fine ever as the club immediately said they will appeal. We give our reaction to the news in this mini podcast. #nffc #var #premierleague 🍻 We're grateful for the support of our main sponsors, the Trent Navigation Inn.

Nottingham Forest are sweating on the fitness of goalkeeper Matz Sels after he withdrew from the Belgium squad with an adductor injury ahead of their Nations Leagues games. There is better news when it comes to Morgan Gibbs-White though after his injury against Chelsea, while Ola Aina has been linked with Roma.

Nottingham Forest produced a great performance at Stamford Bridge as they drew 1-1 with Chelsea in the Premier League on Sunday afternoon. Chris Wood gave Forest the lead before Noni Madueke equalised. James Ward-Prowse was sent off after 77 minutes but the Reds held on despite 13 minutes of added time and might have won it through Jota Silva or Neco Williams. At the other end, Matz Sels was outstanding. Matt Davies will be joined by Mark Sutherns, Paul Morley and Ruby Naylor to discuss the game in full. #nffc #nottinghamforest 🙏 Do like and subscribe to our channel.

On today's show we look at Rio Ave, the third club owned by Evangelos Marinakis after he bought 80 percent of the Portuguese top flight team with a vow to invest in a small but proud club which saw the start of current Nottingham Forest boss Nuno Espirito Santo's managerial career. We welcome Albert from the Long Ball Futebol Podcast to discuss his visits to watch the team, its history and the early impressions made by the Marinakis regime. We also discuss the form of three players with Forest connections in Omar Richards, Brandon Aguilera and Jonathan Panzo, who all joined this summer from Forest either on loan or permanently. 🍻 We're grateful for the support of our main sponsors, the Trent Navigation Inn.
