Nottingham Forest banter 3

28 Apr 2024 21:49:40
Usual frustrating performance from us today. In that I mean we played really good football, but still came away with a loss. Wood forgot his shooting boots today, and looked pedestrian on two occasions where he had the chance to hit the back of the net.

Murillo again proving he is simply a beast. Probably Aina's best performance today all season. I think we always look more assured when Boly is in defence. But. passing was on occasion sloppy.

And why did we not sub Williams whilst he was still on the floor receiving treatment and before the corner came in? That's baffling.

Tactics were much better today. However I cannot help think why we cannot play like that from the start of the season. I reckon the usual Jekyll and Hyde performance will be resumed in the next game; play decent and then play appallingly bad. Hope I'm wrong.

28 Apr 2024 23:31:00
Just like to give a shout out to boly chim. The lad for me with his height and passion. Just seems to give us that bit extra. And agree aina probably his best game. But as i mentioned sh1tty give us plenty of options on the left. Murrilo has mixed emotions from a lot of reds. For me i luv the lad. One of the only defenders looking for a ball that can change the game from the back. And bye that tackle was just f kn. Pure class. BUT AND A BIG BUT, plays long high balls. We've only got wood to score, rest a joke mgw hang your head for them. To many free kicks etc on goal. As clough reminds us ball was never to be played in the air from back.

29 Apr 2024 06:54:46
It was a brilliant recovery tackle, Bowie. He lost the ball in the first place by trying to play his way out of trouble but more than made up for it with that challenge. I've stated before that we need to enjoy him while we have him. Hopefully, considering the injury, that wasn't his last game for us. Not just yet, anyway. We're going to need him in the last 3 matches.

29 Apr 2024 12:27:15
Bowie: agree mate, re Murillo. Absolute find of the season that lad. ?.

28 Apr 2024 20:09:40
Missed the live match and listened to Radio 5 Chris Waddle etc in the car. They said how well Forest played and queried how Forest could be lying just above the relegation zone with that quality of football.
Then an unfortunate number of misses made him realise why. The Radio 5 commentators said Forest should easily beat Sheffield United, a maybe against Chelsea and Burnley so we would survive. This was reassuring but not if you have been a fan for a long long long time. Do you think Chris Woods heart is not in the right place if the Club has said he is not wanted after this season?

28 Apr 2024 21:41:19
Doc, I don't have any reservations about Chris Wood mate. He's a genuine pro who just had an off day. Unfortunately it was a bloody big off day.

28 Apr 2024 23:36:23
Ffs doc, I've heard every moan on here, but are we that sad we call out players not wanting to score young man. It's a natural habit for taylors sake. Thought you were into football years. And btw he doesn't take back handers, officials and VAR get them these days. This site just gets f kn worse at times.

29 Apr 2024 07:56:59
Not content with questioning the integrity of the officials it's the players integrity now.

28 Apr 2024 20:08:58
I just couldn't believe the amount of room we were given, on the left side of the pitch. That dicku as lazy as sangare. Never tracked back for them. Had stupid amounts of opportunity's. But when you're relying on one player to score, wood. And he's having a bad spell your effed. Murrilo very unlucky. The one thing for me today, and it's just sad. Was the fact i couldn't complain at the officials. And the game was freeflowing. The lads put a shift in today. Ok stating the obvious why when williams came off to a set piece corner, do you not bring a sub on. Obvious we are sh1t at set pieces and obvious he wasn't coming back on. Reds this is premier and these decisions cannot be ignored. At the money thrown in especially. But I've got to say some of our movements and passion were brilliant, passing, tackles, closing down. ? that's all i want against the best. We give it a go. And thank you for the encouragement for our last games.

28 Apr 2024 22:25:32
Totally agree Bowie, sit down and stay down on the pitch till a sub comes on
Nieve management.

28 Apr 2024 23:21:25
I thought we were great today Bowie. Passion displayed, at long last.

28 Apr 2024 23:49:30
Agreed totally legless, ? was going to say unlucky. But it wasn't. We create our own wrong doings.

29 Apr 2024 12:35:43
Agree Bowie. How the EF do you not stay down and waste time or have a sub on for a set piece. Only thought is that they thought he would run it off? Still diabolical, especially if we had scored a goal.

28 Apr 2024 20:00:23
So much better from Forest than we have seen for most of the season. To play one of the top clubs in the world and look a better side for significant parts of the game I think is amazing! Despite the defeat, I actually feel very proud of that performance. Shame we couldn't finish from some great moves, but I now have some hope that if we play with the same passion for the remaining fixtures we'll be OK. Happy and hopeful Legless tonight!

28 Apr 2024 19:53:55
If Wood had have had his shooting boots on we could have and should have a draw out of that.

28 Apr 2024 19:42:28
Good effort, sadly another defeat. But the manner of the defeat, against perhaps the best team in world football wasn’t an embarrassment.
Trouble is I doubt we will play as well against Sheffield United. And therein lies the problem.

28 Apr 2024 21:40:14
Again end with a negative the usual with you redfrog don't go into hiding next week when we win big piece of pie waiting for you again ?.

29 Apr 2024 06:55:10
I’m sure I will be reminding you of your post Skegs after the Sheffield game. Sounds like you think we have already won it- all pressure will be off them because they are already down. The expectation and onus will be on us. Nuno dispiriting santo won’t save you from egg on your face ??.

29 Apr 2024 11:09:36
4 nil the reds ureddddssss ?.

28 Apr 2024 19:25:31
Was nice to hear Ian Bomber Bowyer interview before the match. wondered what he would think about City's wingeing about the dry pitch. was there a big umbrella over the ground all morning!

28 Apr 2024 20:38:34
I believe Aina was very good today. even outpacing Kyle Walker!

28 Apr 2024 21:41:07
Aina cracking game rogie shows you why Nuno played 3 at the back.

28 Apr 2024 18:33:09
Well done for the effort there Reds.

28 Apr 2024 19:59:22
Can't fault them on that mate.

28 Apr 2024 18:30:52
If you can be happy with a defeat. Could've been worse but also a missed opportunity. FTID.

28 Apr 2024 20:20:15
Where's all the doomers gone DTP you was about as right as you were with Luton getting less points than the sheep ?? not a tackle in midfield get overrun terrible tactics by Nuno ?? keep your predictions coming against forest we will stay up then ?.

28 Apr 2024 18:28:02
Chelsea game is the only 'realistic' chance of 3 points. The 2 away games won't be up to much. Sheffield United already down and will be playing with no pressure. Burnley will be fighting more than we will be. Just throw in the fact that we haven't beaten the bottom 3 in 5 games this season. Doesn't bode well at all.

28 Apr 2024 18:35:50
Will 3 draws do it?

28 Apr 2024 18:43:36
Yes, but I can see us drawing any because we concede but we can't score.

28 Apr 2024 19:13:02
For the second time today derby sheff utd are still in the game if we loose the appeal and get hit with more points deducted. Nothing is decided yet.

28 Apr 2024 19:18:56
We'll beat Sheff utd Burnley will lose next 2 leaves 4 point gap for last day, even we can't mess that up

Played We'll today good effort but should've scored least 1.

28 Apr 2024 19:37:45
And for what it's worth I think we will get something at Sheffield and Chelsea, Burnley will be tough as the establishment think the sun shines out of Vincent kompanys rear end. But we will have a good go and make Sutton and his has beens eat their words. It's not over yet.

28 Apr 2024 20:26:17
Ffs sheepred do you ever give up.

28 Apr 2024 21:08:31
Spot on Red Stripe mate. We will get at least one point back probably 2.

28 Apr 2024 18:07:13
Like horse racing, Haaland should have weights fitted, to make it more of a contest for the opposition.

28 Apr 2024 18:15:11
Or just shot!
????.

28 Apr 2024 18:27:03
Well for me decent performance Dannillo worst player and Aina best Wood cost us points bad misses and hope Murrello is fit for next Saturday.

28 Apr 2024 18:27:09
Well Nuno definitely got tactics formation right today some fans don't know what there talking about as usual overrun in midfield ?? well done lads gave 100 percent shame wood didn't bury them sitters but all in all play like this last 3 games easy stop up ??.

28 Apr 2024 18:37:00
I'm a glass half full man too Skegs but not for long. ?.

28 Apr 2024 18:39:37
The usual crap from the usual suspects that can't let go Skegs.
Set us up to get slaughtered, not a tackle in that midfield, will get overun.
A lot to be proud of in that performance and could and should have yielded a better result.
Not Nuno's fault Wood missed 2 sitters and Williams pulled out of a shot in first 5 mins.

28 Apr 2024 18:50:06
Nunos been crap Scouse but credit it where it's due he got everything right today and the team put 100 percent in.

28 Apr 2024 19:01:19
Skegs, you can't read mate.

"28 Apr, 16:37:07
Redcyclist: I thought flood the midfield too Frog

Redfrog: Yeh, I'm not liking our shape in midfield. "

Skegs: "Nuno is a winner. " ?

2 wins this year! ?.

28 Apr 2024 19:02:42
I'm an empty the glass then fill it again. Burp! ?.

28 Apr 2024 19:46:17
We lost again
See what we get at Sheffield?
No excuses.

28 Apr 2024 20:10:48
Cyclist or his it cooper on wheels ?? if you haven't got anything good to say about today don't say anything and yes red Fred the usual rubbish from them.

28 Apr 2024 21:17:31
Someone needs a Rennie Burp ??.

28 Apr 2024 21:58:14
Only Fred talks after the occasion
Anyone can do that
Played well at times Fred m, but lost
We need to get nuno to play like that against lesser teams starting next week.

29 Apr 2024 01:44:34
Get knotted Jay. What are you, the typing Police? I'll say what I like, sunbeam. ?.

29 Apr 2024 01:46:35
Two wins this year is simply not good enough. If something doesn't change, we could get relegated.

Nice to see some decent play, but points, points and points are the only thing that matters right now. We have been able to turn it on against top teams for years, we have to do it against other teams and pick up some points.

28 Apr 2024 17:46:18
Probably best we've played, if wood wasn't on his subbuteo f kn plinth. And i mean all season.

28 Apr 2024 18:17:45
Not good enough, though. Especially at this point of the season.
Been a similar story for most of the season. Create chances, miss the easier one and concede a set-piece goal.

28 Apr 2024 18:55:09
D3RBYRED we played the 3 time champions if you have nothing good to say about the performance that was put in today you never will when we stay up which we will if we play like that you still wouldn't be happy but guess what I am great performance bring on the blades 3 points Burnley and Luton lose were nearly there happy days cheer up ?.

28 Apr 2024 20:09:45
You're a fine one to talk. Ya hypocrite,.

28 Apr 2024 20:11:04
I put nothing that isn't true, Skegs.

28 Apr 2024 21:46:51
?? on the few occasions cooper got it right in the premiership I gave him credit you can't give credit when it's due says it all no more to say Mr sheepred.

28 Apr 2024 17:24:33
Playing well apart from the important bit of putting the ball in the opposition net.
