Doncaster nil 0:0 Forest nil

A cold night in the South Yorkshire air bore witness to the footballing equivalent of Sumo wrestling, all huff & puff but with neither side having any chance of scoring all night.

Quite what Calderwoodout has to do to get Christmas off I don't know.

We passed the ball around nicely for 30 seconds at the start of the second half, but apart from that it was clueless, aimless b******s from start to finish.

Fortunately we were playing a Doncaster side that's only managed to score 3 (ONLY THREE !!!!) home goals all season, so for Forest to claim credit for their clean sheet is a bit like me claiming any credit for the fact that it gets dark earlier in December.

Lee Camp nearly gifted all three points to Doncaster twice, and still they couldn't score, so they're as f***ed as we are.

But that's scant consolation.

There were a few good points. We got to park in the ground itself. Bonus. A decent pint in a nearby Travel Lodge Inn type place. Bonus. Bumping into an old school friend before the game. Another bonus.

Oh, and knowing where the ground is for next season's League One clash.
