European Champions Come to Town
Nottingham Forest FC visits Swansea City FC this weekend at the Liberty Stadium and we, of course, will be there. Between 1978 and 1980 Nottingham Forest won the European Cup, now known as the European Champions League, 2 consecutive times. Recent years have seen a fall from such heights, yet currently they're in second place in League 1 and in line for a promotion to the League Championship. A victory for the 8th placed Swans will improve their own hopes of promoton by putting them back into the playoff positions.
***Update***
Swansea City FC 0-0 Nottingham Forest FC
A great atmosphere was the highlight of this match that was a competitive draw. Chants such as "You're not famous anymore" and "Same old English, always cheating" were amusing, the Welsh/English rivalry was very much a central theme. Swansea City did their promotion hopes little harm by taking a point.
