So last Saturday afternoon, I figured I’d properly document the Wolves vs Forest clash since my mates kept arguing about the sequence of events. Grabbed my worn-out notepad – the one with coffee stains from last week’s Arsenal match – and plopped onto the couch right as the prematch buildup started on telly.

Kicking Off The Notes
First thing I scribbled was the kickoff time: 15:00 GMT. Made a separate column for goals and yellow cards after last time’s mess when I mixed up substitutions with fouls. Tuned the volume up proper loud to hear the crowd reactions, which always helps capture those chaotic moments.
Goal Frenzy Timeline
Minute 13: Nearly choked on my biscuits when Matheus Cunha banged that header in! Scrawled “WOLVES GOAL – Cunha from Neto cross” so fast my handwriting looked like chicken scratch. Double-checked the replay to note it was a near-post flick.
Minute 23: Spilled tea everywhere when Gibbs-White equalized against his old club. Had to wipe the notebook while yelling “BLOODY HELL” at the screen. Jotted down how Awoniyi’s dummy completely fooled the defense.
- HT: Added stat: Wolves 63% possession but only 2 shots on target
- Min 57: Yellow card for Danilo after he hacked down Sarabia
Minute 65: Nearly missed Neto’s banger rewriting the tea incident page. Rewound three times to confirm the deflection off Felipe. Drew arrows showing the run from halfway line.
Final Whistle: Circled the 2-1 scoreline twice when VAR confirmed no handball in stoppage time. Added “Forest GK Turner 5 saves” at the bottom after squinting at post-match stats.

Why Bother Recording?
Truth is, my pub mates kept insisting Gibbs-White scored first last season against Wolves. Now I’ve got proper dated evidence in this battered notebook to shut that nonsense down. Takes discipline pausing replays mid-celebration though – almost snapped my pencil when Cunha scored!
