Andy Gore born in Nuneaton moved to Mansfield when I was 8 and supported Forest ever since now 25.
What was your first game?
Forest vs Tottenham we won 2-1.(we always beat Tottenham!)
Describe the most memorable and worst game you've seen and why?
I have seen a few memorable games but the best was Peterborough away under Frank Clark if we won the game we was promoted to the premiership.
Three sides of the ground was full of forest fans and the atmosphere was brilliant. However we went 2-0 down after 15mins but Collymore scored just before half time and then Stuart 'psycho legend' Pearce scored in the 89th minute for Collymore to make it 3-2 in injury time. We had fans running on the pitch and climbing up pylons it was a right laugh and a brilliant match to seal promotion.
Who do you consider as your current local rivals, and why?
Obviously the Sheep Derby, Leicester but more recently the blunts Sheff utd. There is still no love lost for Liverpool aswell.
Who are the best and worst players you have seen?
The best Stan Collymore pure class, Roy keane in his early days, Stuart Pearce. Must say although disliked pierre van hooijdonk was class.
The worst,well we have had a few!!! Andrea Silenzi a complete donkey he played for Italy as a striker he was shocking! Gary Jones he was like a turbo slug!
The majority of the squad who have took us down to league one!
How did you fare last season?
Shocking,obviously from being relegated to the third division and setting a record for former european champions.

However BFJ aslong as the club promised us so much and let us down badly, we have a massive loyal following who did not deserve the lies and complete rubbish we had to endure.
How do you think you'll finish up this season?
Well 90% percent of forest fans never thought we would walk this league, we knew it would be hard and especially because of how bad we was last season even under Megson aswell.
However Megson has brought in 9 players who many were surprised we could get to play in the third division. Players like Breckin and Eaden who were Wigans CB and RB last season. Cullip Blunts fans did not want to see go. Gary Holt played 30 games in the premiership for Norwich last season.
On paper I feel we have a top 6 six side in the Championship yet alone league one. However as a side we are just not clicking at the moment. My head says mid table, my heart says playoffs. You never know Hartlepool lost 17 games last year and got to the playoffs.
Suprised with your early form?
Yes knew it would be hard but we are dominating most games but not creating enough and the football is shocking at times.
Should Megson walk / be pushed?
Who would replace him? Stuart Pearce, no chance unfortunately. (Psycho did apply for the job when joe kinnear left, what a mistake!)
Megson has realised that his style what got WBA promoted twice has not worked here and has said he is going to roll his sleaves and start afresh so hopefull that will mean playing passing football and some much needed wins. Personally I would give him until christmas.

Richard Wilson after the last few years! "I dont' believe it!"
So what do you think of The Millers?
Rubbish! only joking! I wish you all the best I liked Mick Harford thought he was honest at forest and didn't really get much of a chance.
At least you are playing football the right way and could see you in the playoffs this year.
Which current or former Rotherham player impressed you most?
Ronnie Moore just on what he achieved on such a small wage structure. A proper manager.
Are you happy with your Chairman/Backroom staff?
Mixed views the fans have been mislead on numerous occassions but if it was not for our chairman Nigel Doherty a long time Forest fan and his millions we may of gone bankcrupt. We are now one of the most wealthiest teams outside the top flight so he must be given credit for that.
Which team do you want to beat the most this season and why?
I have worked in Sheffield for 4 years and have many friends who are owls or blunts fans so normally it is them. However now we can't even play either unless in the FA Cup I have a lad who works for me who is a chesterfield fan so I suppose it will have to be them so I don't get any stick!
What sort of line-up can we expect from you?
As Megson has said he is going to try something different I expect hopefully a lot more attacking formation.
Who's your strongest / Weakest link??
Commons and Breckin are our strongest. Our weakest is Gareth Taylor a great bloke but just not good enough anymore.

I may put a tenner on the ex Derby striker Burton scoring first against us that is predictable. However think we will draw 2-2.
Who's going up?
Swansea are looking good aswell as Huddersfield, to early to judge such a long season.
Who's going down?
Chesterfield, Yeovil but again early days.
Meat & Tatty, Beef n Onion or Chicken Balti?
Balti! most definately!
