Nottingham Forest have more history than Arsenal, they were started in 1865 and donated their shirts to Arsenal to start up the Arsenal football club. Hence why Arsenal play in red and white. Forest have also won two European Cups.
@@williamwilson6359 It's not ridiculous? The reason they play in red is because we gave them our shirts, and they took the sleeves off (they wore white undershirts.) We are also one of the only teams to win back-to-back European titles.
The only correct answer to: "Who has more history, Forest or Arsenal?" is: Arsenal currently wear red shirts BECAUSE in 1886 Forest GAVE THEM a set of shirts. Arsenal should be made to play in their away kits when Forest visit Emirates. Forest invented shin pads. Fact. Forest were the first to adopt goalposts that weren't square. Fact. Forest invented the colour red. Not a fact, but might as well be. No team comes close for history.
Come on Geoff....low block?! I know our US friends probably dont understand the complexity of football defence but you should really explain Forest's style as counter attacking. A strategy successfully employed by Ferguson's Man Utd and Murinho's Real Madrid. They dont play low block.
As a Nottingham forest fan born and bread, I am absolutely delighted my local football club is having a fantastic Season, I will be very disappointed if forest don't get into the top 6.
It's too early to think about winning the league. As he said, getting into a European competition will help them, but it also means they'll have to spend to keep their players and build some depth for that.
On paper Forest spent that on Anderson but as part of the same window they sold Vlachodimos for a massively inflated fee to help NUFC around their PSR issues.
Forest's return to prominance is an amazing story, but the question is will they persist in future seasons? We've seen this story before: small club gets a meteoric season in the Premier League, then tapers off back to obscurtity in the next and can't return. Let's hope it doesn't happen with Forest.
Forest fans much older than me already went through that process when we finished third in the 1994-95 Premier League directly after winning promotion, only to be relegated bottom of the table two seasons later. I will consider our current trajectory a flash in the pan until proven otherwise. And, truth be told, the Clough era itself was really just a highly elongated flash in the pan. Erase the Clough era from our history, and all that's left are two F.A. Cup wins (1898, 1959) a runner-up finish in the old First Division (1966-67), and a third place finish in the Premier League (1994-95). People think Forest is a big club simply because we won the European Cup twice. Fair enough, I suppose, but I think reality is more along the lines of a modest club that once did something extraordinary.
@@wheresaldocanoe Reading, Blackburn, Wigan and Swansea are tiny clubs who flourished for a burst in the Premier League. Forest are no Liverpool or Man Utd but they’re way bigger than those minnows, and from a bigger city with a bigger fanbase. Here to stay!
There’s no way Arsenal are bigger than Forest. We’re a much older and bigger club than them, they play in red and white because we gave them their first ever kit and they’ve never won the a European trophy.
FFS 5 season in league 1, basic fact check would have corrected this to 3 seasons. I stopped listening at that point, if you can’t be accurate don’t bother creating content…

This doesn't mean that the club has more history though. Because of some silly shirts in the 19th century.
@@williamwilson6359 What about the back to back European cups? We've got two stars on our crest cause of that mate
@@williamwilson6359 Forest won 2 CL, Arsenal lost in final. That is history.

And Diego Simeone’s Atletico Madrid 👍🏼
15 million for Milenkovic is just mind boggling. Have to be the best value for money in ages in any club.

How Geoff can say arsenal have more history is bizarre. Arsenal have not been to the PINNACLE OF FOOTBALL WTF🙄
