For me once again the manager hugely responsible for this result in his team selection, Silva and carvallho together against a physical strong championship team, I said pre season if we played them together championship teams would run straight through us, and that's what happened 1st half, Silva neat and tidy nothing more, carvallho for me, a little boy lost, cash scored a great goal, but he owed us that for pulling out of a tackle, to hand them possession for their 2nd, all very familiar, we lose Dawson and start shipping goals and losing games, very disappointing,
1.) 24 Oct 2019 09:17:28
Yes this happened last season when Dawson was injured thank good ness we have Samba. If we don’t move higher in the table ie top 4 it will be harder to attract a good striker in January if that’s what we need. Psychology is important . Watson was slated last season now or at least was a hero - what changed! Carvalho is bereft of confidence? Perhaps a time in the reserves would help? Lolley is not playing like he can either. So the manager does not drop them after one gain as that would psychologically be bad . Vis a vis Bostock who had a great game in the cup against Derby but then apparently a bad game against Wigan. I think I would have chosen him last night rather than Carvalho. However Yates I think played well. Dilemmas for SL but a win against Reading is important to move up the league but psychologically a priority for the players.
2.) 24 Oct 2019 10:07:25
So frustrating that if we had won last night and sunday we would have been 2 points clear at the top. If we want to play with the big boys we have got to control games. Too many times this season we've been on the back foot the whole match and nicked a point or a win. If our luck has run out we need to grow some balls and start taking games to teams.
3.) 24 Oct 2019 21:51:04
Lamouchi has got it right for the most part with his team selection and the use of subs, think he got it wrong at Wigan and I'd assume he knows that, last night my only concern was seeing Silva and carvalho in the team together as my opinion has always been that they can't play together and it leaves Watson exposed and having to do the job of sow aswell and his legs won't take that, Yates has to come in to give us the legs we need in midfield while sow is out, but to be fair to Lamouchi Yates has been out for a few months and maybe he wants to bring him along slowly to avoid further injury although we have a huge squad some players aren't allowed to be picked so Lamouchi put put a more attacking side out on paper and if your honest what side can any of put out from the squad at the moment that will improve us?
Samba, grabban, cash, Watson and worrall are fixtures and pick themselves and we know although not playing well lolley will play the rest is a lottery until sow semedo and dawson are fit again even jenkinson gives us another option of playing cash on the wing, all a bit unfortunate with the injuries.

See we've loaned gomis to that lot across the river said it's forest' holding out an olive branch ' I wouldn't give them anything, any apologising should be or 'olive branches' should be held out by that plank hardy for shooting off his big mouth and insulting forest in the 1st place, I firmly hope they go down, their fans have no respect for us anyway.
1.) 30 Jan 2019 21:26:33
Yes Stevie but we are showing we have class by holding out an olive branch,bit different to holding your todger?😁
2.) 30 Jan 2019 22:13:15
I don't know about an olive branch,but I think there's a lot of stick coming Hardys way.
3.) 30 Jan 2019 22:17:02
Did someone mention maggots?
4.) 30 Jan 2019 22:56:42
Hardy needs to go back to school and realise that maggots turn into flies,instead of trying to get a maggot out of his flies.🙄🙄

We the season of goodwill has certainly ended on this forum?
Come On You Pies!🤣🐬

03 Oct 2018 23:27:24
First of all millwall were well worth their point our keeper had an absolute stinker, and very few come out with any credit nobody else said anything but I thought hef had a shocker, the manager went all defensive despite the fact we were 2up i'm going to say no more about carvallhio nice free kick but spent most of the night giving the ball away, grabban was a total passenger lolly the only real bright spark thought we might improve but looks like I could be wrong poor night all in.
1.) 04 Oct 2018 01:27:48
I wish the boss would start with Dawson and Murphy against physical sides. It looks obvious to me but not to the boss for some reason.
I can't help feeling like the people on here who reckon this system doesn't suit Grabban were right. He has still only scored a couple of goals in the league apart from penalties. Surely the boss can work out how to get more out of him?
Finally, for a defensive approach we are conceding too many STILL!
This team has promise but it feels like something is still missing. With these players how can we be on the back foot against Millwall?
2.) 04 Oct 2018 09:23:38
Grabban is a goalpoacher,nothing else to his game,great when you play two up,but looks lost alone.
The defence looked poor all night and got a let off early when they hit the bar,doesn't help when they know the goalie will stay rooted to his line all the time and not take charge of high balls.
Heff had a very poor game getting beat numerous times in the air and we still don't look like scoring from corners.
We didn't deserve all three points,but after calvahalo goal that should have been it,don't think karanka covered himself in glory with the final two subs,sitting back and defending was asking for trouble with our fragile defence and dodgy goalie
3.) 04 Oct 2018 10:52:39
Ff79 they also had a good goal disallowed. Pants is a liability. Flat footed, never comes for crosses and inspires no confidence in those around him. As for his distribution??? Captain calamity. Simply a baffoon.
This was a game for Murphy with A another playing tight off him. Grabban offers nothing in this one up role. Dias and Carv are like boys playing for their school. Wonder about with no idea how to move to shape things and are woeful in posession. Why the defence was so poor lastnight? Msybe we were too deep and invited pressure from all angles. Every cross they put in equalled panic stations. can't remember their keeper having anything to deal with. AK needs to stop showing blind loyalty to certain players, assess the opposition and adapt. If thst means more physicality than Fox then it needs doing. Geddy is back to his inconsitent best too. Lastnight was such a disappointment. Not the result the manner in which we went about it. Totally outgunnsd by a poor Millwall side. Step up AK
4.) 04 Oct 2018 11:26:55
Ff I thought heff should have closed down quicker for Blackburn’s 2nd on Saturday too
5.) 04 Oct 2018 11:27:24
To be fair Rutland other than 70 mins in the WBA game we've played badly all season at home in championship,been very lucky at times,that luck will run out I'm afraid.
6.) 04 Oct 2018 20:44:47
Absolutely ff. 70 mins against WBA is it as far as the league is concerned.
The football under Karanka is boring as hell and although the style is defensive the defence is awful. We still concede far too many.
Hefele is slower than a cart horse and Fox never wins a header from a cross.
We have scraped last min draws at Wigan Blackburn and at home to Brum so last night was “own medicine”, reality is we deserved to lose last night.
7.) 04 Oct 2018 21:07:23
Got to agree north Notts can't see us getting enough wins to be up there,we seem to keep grabbing a couple of goals from nowhere somehow,never create many clear cut chances then make individual errors at the back,to me we played with 8 men last night,grabban and calvahalo were non existent and we didn't have a goalkeeper.
You can't carry three players and get away with it.
Most hilarious comment I heard last night was in the car on the way home,Steve Hodge on the radio blaming the fans for shouting at pants to throw it quickly,took his time as usual and then panicked 🤣🤣🤣🤣
28 Aug 2018 22:39:59
Think it's really disappointing how all the optimism and feel good factor around the club seems to be rapidly evaporating, have been on the fence with regard to AK, but there doesn't seem to be any clear plan with team selection, etc we've had a huge turnover of players since he came in, but the same old failings are still apparent, the slow starts the concession of early goals, the aerial weakness in our own box, we seem stuck with the same rigid tactics, and all the chopping and changing of personnel, which is reminiscent of the montanier reign, yes it's early, but to me the signs are not positive, is there anyone that can sort this club out? We seem jinxed,
1.) 29 Aug 2018 08:38:24
Agreed stevie are we any further forward then last year have we made progress ?i don't think so apart from 21000 season cards that is tonight will be the test against newcastle to see how far if any we have become
2.) 29 Aug 2018 09:36:12
The only difference is we haven’t lost any games. Might not have played well but it’s there in black and white. I seem to remember under Billy Davies time we had a couple of seasons when we failed to win in our first few games but made the play offs. The West Brom game highlights what the potential is, we’ve just got to work harder
3.) 29 Aug 2018 12:10:30
Most of the changes have been injuries or to bring in on-form players like Cash/Soudani. The exception was in the cup to give game time and when we brought in the new full backs (which most of the fans were calling for).
4.) 29 Aug 2018 13:30:38
What’s what the fans are calling for got to do with anything? Karanka is solely responsible for what’s turned out on match days not the paying customers, Osborn, Murphy lolley cash carvallhio Dias have all been ‘rotated ‘in a league season that’s only 5 games old little wonder that the ‘gelling ‘ is taking a little longer than hoped and if any of the optimists out there have seen any progression so far i’d really like to borrow your rose tinted glasses
5.) 29 Aug 2018 13:59:25
Can't argue with that Stevie,but for saying it you have officially become a foremoaner.
6.) 29 Aug 2018 14:25:26
They haven't been rotated. Murphy is second choice striker and Grabban is injured. Carvalho was off form and dropped. Soudani, Lolley and Cash were on form (all came on and scored) so they replaced players who were off form. If the manager didn't reward on form players the squad would be demoralised.
Some people just love a good moan. If anything is the managers fault it is that the work on the training ground is clearly not getting the players to perform.
7.) 29 Aug 2018 14:47:54
The last part of your post is the worrying bit as that's the job he's paid to do,if he can't translate trainng practice to a match then he's not getting across to the players what he wants,that's poor management
8.) 29 Aug 2018 14:58:06
1st of all you don know whether I like a good Moan or not what you’re telling me is players weren’t ‘rotated they were replaced or dropped what’s the difference?you sound like the politician who doesn’t want another referendum but a’people’s vote instead! and in the end everything is the managers responsibility whether we or he likes it or not

Can someone remind me are benfica wanting 20 mill for goncalves at the end of his loan?
1.) 14 Aug 2018 23:53:25
none of the Portuguese lads have done anything yet to suggest they are worth millions, people keep suggesting that its the same as wolves but its not they signed neves who was captain of porto at 18, I hadn't heard of Carvalho or goncalves before, but there's still time just hope they come good, more frustrated in dias as I thought he'd start well.
2.) 15 Aug 2018 08:46:49
Sincerely hope the 3 Portuguese don’t turn out like the 3 Italians platt bought in, cost the club a fortune and disappeared without trace
3.) 15 Aug 2018 13:33:40
Can't believe how negative some people are here. Have you actually watched us play? Firstly,the Goncalves deal is £15m structured over 3 years if we want him permanently. He has looked off the pace but give him a chance! Took a while for even Ronaldo to settle but he turned out alright!
As for the other two, they were great against WBA, especially Dias. Their touch and work-rate were excellent and clearly they have quality we've been lacking. Just because they haven't scored yet no need to get on their backs after a couple of games!
4.) 15 Aug 2018 13:41:23
I’m with nick on that one. Just because they don’t score or assist doesn’t mean they’re not good players. All of the Portuguese lads have very good work rates and you need that in this league so give them one to find their feet a bit more and the goals will come.
But until then at least get behind them and not slag them off
5.) 15 Aug 2018 14:29:03
Forest nick yes mate been to every game and will be at wigan Saturday how about you ? And another thing I haven’t actually criticised them just asked about the money.so how about getting down off your ‘loyal fan ‘ high horse?
6.) 15 Aug 2018 22:25:56
Stevie, I heard 20 million mentioned and think we paid 13 million for carvalho. I’m impressed with their work rate to date. Lile I said before let’s wait until we get to the cold days / nights before we either rejoice or lament.
7.) 15 Aug 2018 23:31:10
yes of course there's time and i'm sure all forest fans will give them the time, my point was I thought dias would hit the ground running as he did have a very good pre season but 60 mins against wba is not a great start, i see positives in this forest team and 1 is a battling never say die attitude that we didn't have last year.

Don't know if we've got any notts cricket fans on here, but they added to the roll of sports embarrassment for the city yesterday but allowing derby to score 365 in the last innings to win the match, utterly shameful, what with them now 2years since they won a 4 day match, us collapsing pathetically, and notts co being battered by the mighty Harrogate, must be something in the air around here,

2.) 05 Aug 2020 11:21:36
The cricket team is a total embarrassment. Why the gave Moore’s a new contract is beyond me. He should go along with Newell whose recruitment over the past 2 seasons has been abysmal. Signing players who are well past their sell buy date, and electing a captain who is just not up to it. I cannot be bothered to read Moore’s lame excuses this time. Clive Edward Butler Rice would be turning in his grave. Sorry to send a post on this football site, but there is not a corresponding one the cricket. Probably a good job too.
3.) 05 Aug 2020 12:50:46
Burncross, Moore’s said he was “ proud of their efforts “how deluded is he? Tells you everything that peter Trego opened the bowling,! Far cry from the fearsome hadlee, rice combo, think heads need to roll, but mr newell won’t be leaving anytime soon, I I believe he’s rather shall we say “well in “ with the lady chief executive!
4.) 06 Aug 2020 10:35:00
Stevie f, yes I heard about Mr Newell. As I said Moore’s is a joke, and the only reason his son gets in the team is because of his old man. He also plays his old mate from Sussex ie Nash who is getting on, and Slater goes out on loan and gets a big ton. What a fiasco. Finally the club employ this top Jonny banana bowling coach, a Mr Shine, and still they cannot bowl out Derbyshire, who reach a record breaking score. Sorry again for sending a post on a football website.
04 Aug 2020 21:31:14
What a load of old garbage this play off final is both teams seem more interested in playing backwards and sideways, backwards seems to be the default pass of the modern player, Fulham have almost certainly played more passes towards their own goal than Brentfords if this is modern football they can stick it where the sun don't shine,

Notts where the Big club in the distant past, the oldest football league club in the World. Forest we’re always in their shadow apart from our 1959 FA cup success.
Sir Brian’s era changed the status quo.
If you delight in Notts failure, your not a son of Nottingham.
3.) 03 Aug 2020 07:46:55
Red one, absolute rubbish, Notts have never been a big club, even in their much vaunted Lawton era they were 3rd division, they got bigger gates than us, til our 59 cup win, suppose we were in their shadow in the 60s were we? , when we were close to doing the double under Carey, getting gates in excess of 40,000 and they were in the 4th division,? we played in Europe, and they were getting beat in the cup by the likes of frickley colliery, lol the status quo wasn’t changed by clough but by billy walker, if your going to come on here having a go, at least try to get some facts right, yeah I loved them getting beat yesterday’, some pay back for the crap I had to listen to from their ‘ sons of Nottingham ‘ taking the p***, over our end to the season, congratulations Harrogate, you played them off the park, and I for 1 loved it,

Notice that clown Keith Stroud hasn't got the 2nd leg of play off, and his sending off in the 1st leg was quashed, he's a joke could have cost Brentford big time.
1.) 29 Jul 2020 21:55:24
Chuckle brother Stroud shouldn't be allowed anywhere near championship games full stop. National league is his standard along with Oliver Langford the clown that officiated our 2-2 draw with Swansea in one of the strangest referee performances I've ever seen.
2.) 29 Jul 2020 22:32:59
Stroud is a joke I'll agree its i'm in charge and I'll be the centre of attention.
Langford? didn't watch the game fred but listened on radio and the commentators wrre quite dambing of his performance.
The biggest clown of all though is stuart attwell he really is not worthy of officiating any level of football.
Makes you wonder what the panel see after their abject performances not to strike them off.
Its about the game not them.

Ff79 he’s actually weaker on the ball than silva and that’s saying something,
28 Jul 2020 15:02:02
Omrifitt reinvest? We’re still paying for carvallho mate.
28 Jul 2020 14:47:54
Bsered for some reason ff79 gives carvallho a free pass, he’s one of the most expensive disasters transfer wise in the clubs history, up there with silenzi as mammoth mistake been here 2seasons, had about 4 decent games but some on here still go on about him being some sort of answer to our problems.
07 Aug 2020 00:45:07
Redtree I can guarantee what I’ve seen over the last 2seasons, a man that most of the time in a match looks like a schoolboy in a mans game, plays a good ball about every 3games and people like you acclaim him as a quality player, the 1st excuse was he was too good for the players around him, now it’s, the managers system doesn’t suit him, the last 2 managers who see him everyday haven’t given him a look in, so maybe they’re wrong, and you’re right, but I doubt it,
06 Aug 2020 20:54:53
Carvallho no better than clough, you can't ‘ guarantee ‘ anything, he might enjoy a decent career, but not at this level, in this country, too lightweight like clough, and gives the ball away too often, putting his own team on the back foot, he’s been here two seasons now, what will it take to make some on here realise he’s not good or robust enough,
06 Aug 2020 10:06:40
I think you’ll find he wanted to leave and join the sh****** not a great recommendation for him,
