Since being acquired by Dale Vince in 2010, Forest Green Rovers have become the world's first vegan football club, the world's first carbon-neutral football club, and the world's greenest football, according to FIFA.
Following twelve years of progress, which saw Forest Green climb from the National League all the way to League One, the Green Army have just suffered back-to-back relegations, dropping out of the EFL.
It was a remarkable rise, followed by a catastrophic fall, over such a short period of time, so in this video, HITC Sevens takes a look at the journey that Forest Green Rovers have been on, what makes the club unique, and why their supporters aren't as despondent as one might imagine.

The content from this channel is so much better than we get from mainstream media.

Sorry, We Need To Talk About Forest Green Rovers

What annoys me is their colour isn't Forest Green, it is Lime Green, there is literally a shade of green that they share a name with and it is nowhere in their kit or crest. Grinds my gears

HITC Sevens. Your work is absolutely exceptional.

Surely a Bologna video is on the way soon 🔥

Interesting to learn that Forrest Green Rovers was their traditional name and not, as I suspected when I clicked on the video, a rebrand to coincide with their environmental policies.

They’re from the fringes of the Forest of Dean. They’re green. And they historically rove, between grounds. They’re a club, whose actual name, does what it says on the tin. You can’t take that away from them.

I'm a Bristol Rovers fan, Green got promoted with us in 21/22, n then beat us on the opening day of 22/23, thought they looked like a well run club, who d be OK.....we then beat them very comfortably later in the season, at that point the 2 teams looked very different........

Real life FGR fan, never happy to see an HITC vid about them

VfB Stuttgart are currently 2nd in the Bundesliga, meaning Bayern may even finish 3rd this season. They've been relegated twice in recent years, only narrowly surviving last season. They seem to have an interesting story 👀 Over to you Alfie

I'm a Valladolid fan, and while we're in position to get promoted, again, after being relegated, again, I'd love to have a video like this about Ronaldo's ownership of the club and why he's selling. I know some of the basic reasons, but I'd love to see an in depth video about a club I love and that rarely gets mentioned. Love your work!

They will be ok, Cotterill is a good manager and does well with teams in Gloucestershire, got Cheltenham to the Football League for the first time in their History

As a life long Villa fan , I freely admit that Gaby A, has no authority really to call anyone stupid !

Another brilliant video! Forest Green genuinely had a lot of support from a section of Evertonians, when Big Dunc joined. I, as an Evertonian and environmentalist (and having won the Champions League with them on Championship Manager 2001, as I liked their name), will always have a soft spot for FGR. Hopefully, they're back soon.

I live in Nailsworth. Still find it unbelievable that there is a league club here

Here to remind you that you still have that guy asking for the best German players in the prem. Apparently he's on day 632. This is just a little less than 2 years.
