Surrendering Leeds
Leeds United 2-1 Nottingham Forest (Premier League) It’s a game I’m not that fussed about going to in truth… My beloved Reds are in free fall without victory since the start of February, they can’t win on the road, the football and tactical approach to games in recent weeks, especially away from home, has been dire and awful to watch, and the Manager who all Forest fans like myself, love and adore, could be facing the sack should Forest suffer another inevitable away day bea
