Rainbow Rescue

It was hard to believe that Forest had been so dominant establishing a two goal lead against a top five team as Villa attacked and attacked but we managed to keep them out with low blocks, fingertip saves and last ditch tackles. They were not deterred as the onslaught continued.

The sky changed colour. A rainbow burst out, floating down in front of the goal, sprinkling its gold dust as a defensive wall giving the goalkeeper longer arms, the defenders stronger legs and the crowd louder voices.

Forest held on to claim a significant victory and climb up the league.
