Nottingham Forest & Me with... DoreOnTour
Nottingham Forest & Me with... DoreOnTour
Today I speak all things Nottingham Forest with MrDore, MrDore follows Nottingham Forest home and away and is most well known for his YouTube channel DoreOnTour where he has over 9,000 subscribers.
After Forest lost to spurs in The FA Cup. I’ve followed them since,
because I live in Nottingham as well so a no brainer at all even with my
mates following Liverpool. Man Utd etc
Best Nottingham Forest game you’ve been to?
Got so many games that are the best following Forest, like Ben Osborn
against Derby. But last season Forest beat Bristol City away & Lyle Taylor
scored 2 goals in 60 seconds is top! So many memories last season like the
play off final at Wembley
Any stand out stories off the pitch following Nottingham Forest?
Best story has to be talking to Steve Cooper’s Son & Brother before the
Luton game. I had no idea I was talking to them before. I asked what they
thought of Steve Cooper only for them to reply with “I’m his brother and that’s
his son” My reaction was priceless.
What’s been the worst moment following Nottingham Forest & why?
Getting relegated to League 1 under Gary Megson. But Stoke away last season is
up there too. I was very angry at the performance & the worst away game for
a long time.
If you could go back & be in attendance for 1 game in Nottingham Forest history. What would it be?
Wembley play off final. After the final whistle went. None stop crying and hugging my mates. So much joy & happiness from last season (apart from the first 6 games).
All time favourite player & cult hero?
My all time favourite players is Ian Woan. Love his left foot & the goals
he scored for Forest. Been lucky enough to meet him at a meal at the end of a
game at The City Ground which made my day! Plus spending 3 day with Kevin
Campbell was amazing but Ian Woan is my favourite player.
Steve Cooper now has a new contract and a big job on his hands, Is he the right man for the job and were the 20+ signings needed?
Steve Cooper is the main guy for me after what he did for the club
and the city. Its so hard when Forest bring in 20+ players to deal with them
all but I believe he’s the man who can keep us up.
How are you finding the premier league as a fan? it took time to get there, are you now enjoying it from a fans point of view?
I love it in the Premier League. 23 years of The
Championship, League One then back to The Championship. We’re now back in the
big time. I love going to the big stadiums and networking with other fans for
my DoreOnTour YouTube channel. Its crazy. But just being back is amazing to
see.
Dinner party. You and 4 guests dead or alive connected to Nottingham Forest?
Ian Woan, Chris Bart-Wiilliams, Kevin Campbell & David
Johnson. I’ll have dinner but I won’t be having a kick about.
Best all time Nottingham Forest 11 you’ve seen play? (in a 4-4-2)
What makes Forest special at the moment? It’s that we’re back in The Premier
League. Fans are so happy after bad moments with Fawaz and other sad times.
We’ve got a great owners in Evangelos & Miliadis Marinakis. They’ve put so
much money into the club but the main man is Steve Cooper. He’s made all of us
Forest fans so happy after coming into the club rock bottom and now we are
Premier League. Let’s hope we can carry on being Premier League for a long
time.
