History Boys: Thirty Iconic Goals in the History of Nottingham Forest - Tapa dura

"Given that it is 28 years since the club's last major trophy, Forest fans could be forgiven for forgetting some of the more glorious chapters of their history. Marples manages to convey the labour of love that supporting a fallen giant entails, and how much it says about your character, telling the world what a good, loyal person you are." --Backpass

"Digs into a wide span from the sixties right up until 2017. Gives younger supporters, who missed out on the peak years under Clough, an opportunity to read about our own moments. Offers up a few smiles of recollection for those who have only ever known Forest as a plodding Championship side. Would heartily recommend you treat yourself to a copy or gift it to a relative or friend." -ForzaGaribaldi.com

"A glossy hardback for the Forest fan in your life which could be lobbed into a shopping basket alongside Old Spice and soap-on-a-rope. This book didn't really need to be any good. And yet it is. A writer with a sense of perspective and a true understanding of a football club whose present is perpetually infuriated by its rich and romantic past." --LeftLion.co.uk
