Watched the game yesterday and was pleasantly surprised but equally perplexed. I can understand why so many teams are unhappy with VAR. how long do the officials have to look at the screen to decide if it's offside or not. If it's clearly offside it's obvious. The alex mighten decision was extremely marginal. What happened to level onside and giving the benefit of the doubt. Can't expect anything else from the officials really. Can't possibly rule in favour of a none descript club from the east Midlands. My point is the bigger clubs will profit from VAR bias it's almost like a cartel. Does so many decisions have to go to VAR? On the upside i thought we did ok. They were a class above us but we worked hard. I thought the young players did very well especially alex mighten. Completely agree with SL putting out a weaker side. Promotion is the priority. I don't think the owner said win the FA cup or your sacked. Onwards and upwards. Much cause for optimism. COYR.

The most annoying thing is that VAR wasn't even used in most of the other games. There were FA Cup games played this weekend where decisions would've been overturned if VAR would've been used. Forest were just unfortunate enough to have VAR employed in their match.

Ridiculous. Level playing field? I don't think so. Basically, games being played in the same competition but with different rules for each game. Farcical.

I haven't seen any of the incidents so can't comment on them but it has to be to the FA's advantage if the bigger clubs stay in the competition. I don't understand how you can have some games with it and some without?

Sounds like the players did well though despite the result, well done and a good opportunity for those knocking on the first team door.

You don't run on your arms so the penalty yesterday should of stood. Simple.
