[T]he furore surrounding Lyon's astounding 7-1 win in Zagreb last week puts one in mind of the perhaps the most anomalous sequence of results in this season's Football League. In September, warmly tipped Crawley Town followed up a 6-0 hiding at Morecambe with a 3-0 home battering by Swindon. Having begun existence in the League well, these results were far from expectedand everything that has happened since makes them seem still more unusual.

Today, whilst at the Arboretum in Stafford, a fellow soldier asked me why I was a Forest fan. A fair question, given that my father is from Sussex and supports Chelsea and my mother is from Ashington, the birth place of the Charlton brothers and staunch ‘Toon' territory [...]

The likes of Gabriel Obertan, Bebe and Darron Gibson probably woke this morning with the temptation to pull themselves back under the duvet in a desperate attempt to banish the memory of Saturday's embarrassingly narrow 1-0 FA Cup fifth round victory against the Sussex minnows.
