In the 1990s, Football was the new RocknRoll and fanzines were the new Punk Rock – anarchic, rebellious, irreverent, hilarious, and honest. We had plenty at Forest: The Tricky Tree, The Trent Times, Forest Forever, and many more. However, pride of place among Forest Fanzines has to go to the Almighty Brian. Julie Pritchard should have her own plaque on the Trent End wall.
More recently, we’ve had the excellently produced Bandy & Shinty, Trevor Francis Tracksuits, and Oh Mist Rolling In.
Much of the below was published in Oh Mist Rolling In. The older stuff was in the Tricky Tree.
