The 1865 Forest Ramble is part of the Fan Hub Network - where fans come first. After the heavy FA Cup exit at Swansea, Forest were looking to bounce back as they faced Barnsley at The City Ground. What followed was not a classic, as Chris Hughton's Reds picked up a point against a hard-working, energetic Tykes side. The vistors saw a big penalty shout waved away in the first half, while Lewis Grabban spurned a big chance that could've been the difference on the day. Baz speaks to Carlo from Barnsley podcast The Reds Report to mull over the events of the 90 minutes, including the performance of the two teams, the standard of officiating and look at how Forest and Barnsley will fare after this draw.

The 1865 Forest Ramble is part of the Fan Hub Network - where fans come first. As 2020 turned into 2021, Forest embarked on a seven-match unbeaten run, pulling themselves away from the Championship relegation zone as well as progressing into the 4th Round of the FA Cup. However, two defeats in four days, including a disappointing cup exit at Swansea, have seen some concerns resurface. Rich Ferraro is joined by Steven Toplis, Baz and Tom Newton, where they discuss that heavy cup defeat in South Wales, a lack of streetwise smarts from the Reds and ask if Forest are suffering from a crisis of confidence. Also, the team looks into how Chris Hughton can turn the team's fortunes around and pick their moments that sum up Forest's season so far. Like what you hear?

The 1865 Forest Ramble is part of the Fan Hub Network - where fans come first. The Reds' recent unbeaten run came to an end in disappointing fashion, as the level of performance rarely got out of first gear against a Middlesbrough team who used their Warnockisms to good effect. Despite Loic Mbe Soh's late goal, any faint glimmer of hope extinguished when Yuri Ribeiro lost his head (he wasn't the only one) and got a red card. We are joined by Phil Spencer from Bonkers For Boro to discuss mind games, performance levels and surly striker-skippers. Like what you hear?

The 1865 Forest Ramble is part of the Fan Hub Network - where fans come first. Following successful FA Cup exploits the week before, Forest and Millwall returned to league action at The City Ground and it was the Reds who came out on top. They put in an impressive all-round team performance to secure a 3-1 win; two goals from Sammy Ameobi and one from Ryan Yates giving Forest a deserved three points. We are joined by Henry Morgan from Millwall fan podcast No-One Likes Us Talkin', to discuss the result, the performance of both the Reds and Lions and reflect on where the teams' fortunes are at the halfway point of the season.

An early goal from Lyle Taylor was just about the only goalmouth action in this tight affair between two teams who created little. However, there are signs that this is becoming a Chris Hughton team, with Joe Worrall and Scott McKenna looking strong at the back, although the midfield again lacked spark and creativity. We are joined by Ben Price from the View From The Ninian podcast, who offers his opinion on the similarities between the Bluebirds and the Reds, notably a lack of cutting edge; Ben predicts a season of mid-table safety/mediocrity (delete as applicable) for both teams.

The 1865 Forest Ramble is part of the Fan Hub Network - where fans come first. Forest got their 2021 off to the best possible start by picking up a crucial 1-0 victory at Preston North End. Despite the home side hitting the bar twice, Forest put in a strong team display to return from Deepdale with all three points, courtesy of Lewis Grabban's second half penalty after Cafu's shot was blocked by a Preston hand.  The win moves the Reds three points clear of the Championship drop zone and extends their unbeaten run to five matches. Manager Chris Hughton was understandably delighted with the result and in our match report, we reflect on a big three points gained on the road. Like what you hear?

The 1865 Forest Ramble is part of the Fan Hub Network - where fans come first. After making it three games without defeat with the draw against Birmingham City on Boxing Day, Forest continued their Christmas programme with a Tuesday night trip to Stoke City. The Reds fell behind in the first half after some poor defending which seemed to sum up Forest's 2020 in a nutshell but fought back in the second, forcing an own goal to level the scores. Chris Hughton's team might even have claimed all three points had Cafu put away an opportunity that had been gifted to him by some generous home defending.  We are joined by Dave from Stoke City fan podcast Wizards of Drivel to discuss the result, the performances of both Stoke and Forest and how the game was viewed by the Potters supporters.
