Too effing true.
Outside of Nottingham, not every football fan knows of Notts County. Welcome to Wrexham did a huge amount to promote Notts County, worldwide.
The EPL has a similar effect and the fact that Forest are doing well this season promotes Nottingham, which in turn brings people to visit or maybe just google Nottingham, thus opens up the possibility of them not only hearing about Notts County, but possibly becoming supporters.
I know of some Italians who are from Torino and they look out for Notts each week, just because of the connection between the two clubs.
I'd have though it was quite simple really.
Who would you sooner lose, forest or Mansfield, pick one not both
Mansfield? Easily.
I find it difficult to hate Forest as we haven?t been ?competitors? for the best part of 3 decades.
As others have pointed out? we are making money from their success.. whether that?s having a full Nest when visiting teams come to Forest or the fact our crowds are up - it can?t be denied that a contributing factor is Forest selling out the CG each week and fans of Forest want to see football, hence a few popping to the lane.
Gut feeling, Mansfield. I think the only time I?d want Forest to lose is if they were playing Notts.
Those that ?hate? Forest, did you complain when Notts had Grant and Yates on loan? Did you wish ill of Forest when their fans were collating money to help keep Notts in existence?
Probably a generational thing, but I think the last time I ?loathed Forest was when I was at Primary School.
