Kelvin Wilson is no stranger to Nottinghamshire football. The Nottingham born defender has turned
out for teams either side of the Trent, in Notts County and Nottingham Forest. He is also a man
held in the highest regard by his current boss, Billy Davies, who signed Wilson for Preston North
End and then for current [.

The superb website Mirko Bolesan, named after an Italian midfielder who enjoyed a single appearance
for Cardiff City a few years ago, is a great port of call for an assessment of some of football's
oddities. Amongst the varied topics discussed can be counted a masterly account of 2009-10 kit
sponsors, club badges (didn't we call them "crests" in the seventies?

Much has been made about Tottenham's spending (almost £150m on transfers in the last 16
months), which presumably pushes them above the Big Four in spending and leaves them second only to
Manchester City.
On the surface, it's a lot of money for not a lot of success. However, keep in mind that this
Tottenham side has also seen a lot of exits, some of them at fairly good prices too.

Among the performers who have lit up this burgeoning Championship campaign are some familiar names.
Michael Chopra has so far justified every last dime of his weighty fee, Kevin Nolan has buckled
down and rehabilitated his reputation as an all purpose midfielder-cum-forward, and Adam Johnson's
sleek skills on the Middlesbrough wing have helped Smogheads forget the injured Stewart Downing.

I managed to catch a live match courtesy of the Beeb for the first time this evening. Having missed
out on their previous offerings for a variety of reasons, I made sure to be in for Cardiff's late
afternoon home game against Forest, and I thought that it was well worth it. Terrestrial TV is
usually best avoided at 5pm on the Sabbath, but a bit of Championship football proved to be the
perfect

West Brom moved top this weekend, capatalising on Newcastle's away loss to Forest.
Cardiff closed in on Middlesbrough, before climbing up to third with a win on Tuesday. Could this

gone behind to an early Beattie goal.

Nottingham Forest put a dent in our title ambitions as what appeared to be a very unmotivated
Newcastle side struggled early on.
Forest had the best of the first half and were unfortunate to only go in to the half-time break
with a one goal lead. Newcastle were guilty of:

than a place to buy a drink. I was already hacked off before the game kicked [...]

How well Newcastle do tomorrow is very much dependent on what defense we are able to filed against
an in-form Nottingham Forest side at the City ground. If both Coloccini and Steven Taylor are fit
the defense will be at its strongest and we'll have very chance of getting our 8th clean sheet of
the season, [.

The Forest fixture against Newcastle United on Saturday brings to mind a bizarre group of matches

division Nottingham Forest.

Wow, a triple threat. A futbol movie, about Leed's United (my favorite former EPL team, now
leading the 1st Division and primed to return!) and a great story. It's been covered by NPR and is
receiving special screenings on both coasts. I've put in a request to my favorite indie theater,
The Moxie, to find out if they'll be bringing the film to our area.
