Alan Barnes update for visits
at 17:11 9 Mar 2016

Alan has moved to the Athlone Clinic in Woodfield Rd W9. He's on the second floor but check before you visit as he attends various clinics and may not be there.

He is going to St Marys on Friday 11th so will be away for most of the day.

As you'd expect Alan was in some discomfort especially after a day in a wheelchair at St. Marys. The physios are getting ready for him to go load-bearing on his broken leg. Coincidentally one of them is a Forest fan.

The physio not his leg.

Surprise delivery
at 12:42 21 Sep 2011

I've just received a package from QPR containing a £10 voucher for the club shop, a scarf, a memory stick, a coaster and a metal thing that looks like a shinpad for a two year old but apparently is an executive bottle opener. I certainly wasn't expecting that and I suspect my wife won't be expecting a qpr coaster for christmas either.

A brilliant team performance. You could be forgiven for thinking that Reading were down to ten men, as they should have been. I had to remind myself that it was us.
We should have had this game wrapped up before the sending off with three clear chances. However a bit of Adel trickery forced the pen which he converted. If the sending off was for the tackle then it was wrong as Orr clearly got the ball. Reading knew this ref from last year and were in his ear bitching all game. The ten men just continued as if nothing had happened taking the game to Reading's twelve men.
Second half we continued attacking ,with Mackie filling at RB, leaving ourselves slightly exposed at times but the chances kept coming as did the goals. Reading got one back, a very good strike. Our third followed and the only scare led to an excellent save from Paddy Kenny.
The defence was excellent throughout with our tackles, blocks and saves doing the job. Derry was immense in his defensive role with Faurlin playing back at his best. Mackie and Walker had the skill and stamina to work like three men. Adel was unplayeable again. 'Taarabt's too good for you' rang out from a noisy crowd that got behind the team. The best form of defence is attack and that's exactly what we did. Bit scary at times but so exciting.
It's difficult to pick a MOTM as it was a great performance. Adel, Faurlin, Walker and Derry are all worthy contenders but Derry edges it for me. Immense credit to NW for putting Duracell Mackie at RB and the whole team for the attacking approach taken to a bad decision. This team is unrecognisable from pre-NW days.

First half was pretty even with Boro probing, trying to pull our defence out of shape, switching play around. Boyd airshot when he should have scored. Good shout for a pen for foul on HH.
Second half. 20 mins and the game was over. We started taking the game to Boro and got a pen when HH was fouled and casually he rolled it in. We then played some of our best attacking football hitting Boro with pace and trickery. They had had an easy first half but now looked totally lost. Adel sent in one of his pacey crosses to be met at the near post by Hogan- his volley just rocketed in. Great goal and LR was rocking. Third goal was coming as we continued to press and after a bit of a scramble Mackie hooked his leg round the ball to score. We still had time for a brilliant mazey run from Mackie that deserved better and Hogan hit the post with a curling placed shot. All that was left was to remind Strachan about his impending P45 and to boo panto villain Lita.
Boro had looked a decent side but just fell apart as we attacked them. Atmosphere was the best for years with all three sides of the ground joining in.
