Former West Ham Loanee Jesse Lingard Berated With Bank Notes Following Big-Money Move to Forest

Jesse Lingard, who opted for Nottingham Forest instead of West Ham this summer, has been scolded by travelling Hammers fans this afternoon. The 29-year-old is reportedly earning £200,000-a-week at his new club, which places him above some the Premier League’s prized assets including Trent Alexander-Arnold and Ruben Dias. The former Manchester United midfielder was close to joining West Ham this summer having spent a portion of last season on loan at the London Stadium, where he enjoyed a fruitful spell notching in nine goals and registering five assists in 16 games. It would seem the West Ham faithful have taken it upon themselves to let Lingard know just what they think of his decision, with may fans complaining he chose the offer with the biggest fiscal reward. With Lingard represen...

Dean Henderson Puts on Goalkeeping Masterclass to Leave Man United Fans Irate

Nottingham Forest goalkeeper Dean Henderson registered an outstanding performance on his home debut against West Ham. The 23-year-old, who joined from Manchester United this summer in search of regular first team football, stopped a Declan Rice penalty and made 11 saves in a spectacular showing. Henderson publicly criticised his former club recently having been promised a more prominent role last season, only to feature once in the FA Cup and once in the Champions League. Fast-forward to this afternoon, and Red Devils fans have been dealt another dose of salt to the wounds inflicted yesterday following their 4-0 drubbing against Brentford. Long-term goalkeeper David De Gea was at fault for the first goal having let a tame Josh Dasilva shot slip through his grasp, while Brentford’s second c...

WATCH: Chelsea New Boys Combine as Kalidou Koulibaly Smashes Home Spectacular Volley

Chelsea have raced into an early lead against Tottenham, with summer singing Kalidou Koulibaly sweeping home a fine volley. The Senegalese international is known for his arial ability and goalscoring threat from corners having scored three goals for Napoli last season, but the 31-year-old has just shown a real piece of technical artistry to register his first goal for Chelsea. Just before the 20 minute mark, fellow new singing Marc Cucurella launched an inswinging corner deep into the Tottenham box, where an unchallenged Koulibaly was on hand to stroke a controlled volley past Hugo Lloris.

WATCH: Antonio Conte and Thomas Tuchel Clash Multiple Times as Tottenham Rescue Last-Gasp Draw

In a fascinating, high-octane share of the spoils, tempers flared between both sets of coaching staff resulting in a post-match skirmish. Following an earlier scuffle between Antonio Conte and Thomas Tuchel after Tottenham’s first goal levelled the score, the handshake at full time turned into a heated exchange between the two managers.

Why do Premier League Newcomers Nottingham Forest Not Have a Shirt Sponsor?

Nottingham Forest feature in the top flight at the City Ground for the first time in 23 years, and many fans are questioning why the Tricky Reds are donning shirts without a sponsor. It is rare to see elite football without sponsors emblazoned on the front of shirts, down the sleeves and on the back. While it would’ve been a refreshing thought that Forest consciously rejected having a sponsor for the purity of football and the aesthetics of a retro-like shirt, there is a rather underwhelming reason. The club are yet to secure a fresh partner following the expiration of their previous agreement with boiler company BOXT. not financially idea, but I dig that a classic club like Forest is the one rolling in the PL in a clean, sponsor-less shirt. pic.twitter.com/JWRfCey8IB — peter (@peet2) Augu...

After a less than favourable opening day schedule saw them face a tough away fixture against Newcastle, top-flight football has officially returned to one of England’s most illustrious clubs. Widely known for having a monumental fanbase, match days at Forest are typically serenaded by their very own version Paul McCartney and WINGS’ “Mull of Kintyre”. The lyrics of the chorus are changed from “mist rolling in from the sea” to “mist rolling in from the Trent”, which is the river that runs adjacent to the City Ground. See below for today’s iteration, which was rather goosebump-inducing. Sound on 🔊 Spine tingling fr...
