Stu Freestone

Last weekend, myself and my incredibly talented pal Will, starting shooting for a Nottingham Forest spoken word film for my poem ‘Paint The Town Red’. Here’s a few of the promo stills from Sundays shoot. 1/5 #spokenword #poetry #poet #nffc #nottinghamforest

…But here we are. Huge love to Will for indulging my passion and doing all the real work in creating and capturing footage for this beauty. Roll on Sunday for day 2 of the shoot. See you on the banks. Keep your eyes peeled for release. #spokenword #poetry #poet #nffc

It’s a real honour to be creating a piece for a city & for a club that is so close to my heart. If you’d told me as a youngster, who was watching training sessions over the wall & going to games almost every week that I’d be doing this now, I wouldn’t have believed you 5/5 #nffc

I just want to say a massive thanks to everyone who was involved in filming so far, especially the @TalkingRedsPod and everyone at @TrentNavigation for their hospitality and the Forest fanbase for the support this project has received thus far. 4/5 #spokenword #poet #nffc

I can’t tell you what an unreal joy it is to be doing this, putting something like this together for my beloved football club. The final piece is going to be mega. 3/5 #spokenword #poetry #poet #nffc #nottinghamforest

We filmed in some amazing locations, and are heading out again this weekend to get the last load of shots in the ground, before heading to film with the Forest legend that is @bignorms in a few weeks time to close the filming schedule. 2/5 #spokenword #poetry #poet #nffc

Dear Forest family, Tomorrow pre game, our friend Stu Freestone ‘the cheese trader’ will be maximising his hidden skill as a poet. A piece that in private readings has moved us to tears is being filmed. City centre, around WFCG, maybe Nav, if you see him, please show the❤️ #nffc

Hey @georgeharbey, I’m a spoken word poet & obviously a huge NFFC fan. I’ve written a piece about the club, the history & the city. I’m filming the piece on Feb 11th & was wondering if you had any advice on who best to liaise w/ to film at the ground? Any help appreciated. Cheers

@TamsynKelly1 @allpointseastuk @deftones @OutbreakFest @AXS_UK I literally jst managed to get 2 tickets using laptop which wouldn’t work via the presale link earlier after being blocked on all devices. Got there in the end & almost got scammed in the process. Oddly the account/messages by a supposed customer support have now been deleted.🤔

@stufreestone @allpointseastuk @deftones @OutbreakFest @AXS_UK We have finally managed to get tickets across 4 devices all of them were blocked for being bots apparently. Finally managed on the pc to get two tickets after hours of trying

@TamsynKelly1 @allpointseastuk @deftones @OutbreakFest I didn’t yet. I just got a message from the official @AXS_UK so seeing if that helps. Beware of scammers who say they can help from unofficial channels that are pretending to be customer care for AXS

@stufreestone @allpointseastuk @deftones @OutbreakFest Did you get sorted ? Me and my friends are also struggling it just isn’t working

@CenterTm_1 Done!

@AXS_UK I spent 40 minutes in the waiting room for the deftones all points east pre-sale, opened the link as soon as I got the email, just to receive this as soon as it’s my turn in the queue 😭

@AXS_UK @EmmaGWeston Hey AXS I’m having issues with my payment link also. I have dm’d you!

@EmmaGWeston Hi, please send a DM and we can assist further.

Nottingham Forest Football Club wishes to express its deepest concern and heartfelt sympathy to all those affected by the shocking attack on an LNER train bound for London yesterday evening. Many of our London-based supporters were travelling home on that train following our match at the City Ground, and our thoughts are very much with everyone caught up in such a distressing incident. The Club is aware that many individuals demonstrated extraordinary bravery which undoubtedly helped prevent even greater harm. The entire Nottingham Forest family stands firmly behind them as they recover from the events of yesterday. Evangelos Marinakis, Nottingham Forest’s owner, said: “Everyone at Nottingham Forest is shocked and deeply saddened by what happened. The courage and selflessness shown by our supporters on that train represents the very best of humanity and the very best of our club’s community. “We will make sure any supporter caught up in this incident receives whatever financial support they require to enable them to access the best possible medical care as they recover. Our thoughts and prayers are with all those affected.”
