Hi Guys
Just wanted to say a "Big" thank you to all that attended the Reading game for making me feel so welcome into the Ireland branch.
It was great to meet up with you all and have a laugh and joke along the way. Certainly an experience that I want to repeat a few more times this season.
Special thanks to Eddie and Stuart for putting up with me, and Kevin who had to suffer me talking constantly all the way back on the flight to Dublin.
The highlight, well I guess was having a cuddle with Julian Bennett! and meeting up with all you committed forest supporters especially Ava - Eddie's daughter who dragged a poor Luke Chambers over to me so I could get his autograph (I felt old enough to be his mother).
Many thanks once again to you all and look forward to meeting up again soon.

Hi Karen,
Glad you enjoyed the trip. I'd love to have been there. I'll definately be going over to a few games this season. Don't know which ones yet apart from the Easter trip.

Yes a great trip. These trips are even better when theres a few people present. Good to meet you Karen and Ray as well. Its also good to see many future forest fans running around as well. Plenty of robins reds in the Clerkin, Byas and Simpson households :D Roll on the next trip. We did say the Birmingham game in early November is one we'd expect a number of people to be at.

Hi all, good to meet you all in the person! Yes, it was a very enjoyable day, just finished looking at the Sky+ recording and the commentary team even acknowledged that we were a bit unlucky not to get a penalty for the most awkward defensive header on the day at the Trent End. Must admit I missed that during the game. I think the performance was a lot more than I expected, just hope we can keep it up. Ray
