Got to be a p*** take ain't it? Forest linked with kostas fourtunisš From olympiacos of course, when I saw the name I had to check it wasn't April 1st!

We've already signed some of his relatives fortunis waststeies. š¤.

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 donāt move higher in the table ie top 4 it will be harder to attract a good striker in January if thatās 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?š
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.šš

Oh I just love this banter!
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 Blackburnās 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 āown medicineā, 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 š¤£š¤£š¤£š¤£
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 havenāt lost any games. Might not have played well but itās 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, weāve 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
Whatās what the fans are calling for got to do with anything? Karanka is solely responsible for whatās turned out on match days not the paying customers, Osborn, Murphy lolley cash carvallhio Dias have all been ārotated āin a league season thatās only 5 games old little wonder that the āgelling ā is taking a little longer than hoped and if any of the optimists out there have seen any progression so far iād 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 youāre telling me is players werenāt ārotated they were replaced or dropped whatās the difference?you sound like the politician who doesnāt want another referendum but aāpeopleās vote instead! and in the end everything is the managers responsibility whether we or he likes it or not

That performance yesterday from a championship team starting lineup minus, knockeart. Lolley, arter, taylor, figs, colback soh, who whatever is said on here, would walk into most championship teams, shows the strength of this squad, it was always for me a matter of time before ch got this team moving forward, let's hope yesterday set the standard of our performance, in what I maintain is a garbage standard league,
1.) 17 Jan 2021 10:38:32
SF, The team has within a lot of untapped talent . I have got confidence we have a good manager, who will get this team playing and getting points . Who at this stage is concerned about attractive football when points on the board is the objective. A month ago the doom merchants had us relegated and CH they wanted sacked. Very soon we will see Grabban scoring goals, it is inevitable, plus a possible settled back 4, ( still more adjustments necessary ) . By the time we are sitting in our seats again I predict we will be in the top half at least of the table.

Hooray for Chorley and Forest, good stuff lads.
2.) 09 Jan 2021 17:48:28
Watched the celebrations of the chorley players.
In normal times that would be great to see.
But with times as they are i find it totally unacceptable that they are allowed to do it.
They are part time so will go home to families and work only takes one of them to be infected to cause mayhem.
Elite sport?

Here's an idea Ff, why don't we all just stop doing everything and stop being human beings to suppress this killer c.v. that has people dropping down dead in the streets?
5.) 09 Jan 2021 18:54:27
Ff79 I agree, it sends out the wrong message, sound a bit of a killjoy attitude but tv also has a responsibility not to show such celebrations.
6.) 09 Jan 2021 18:55:36
Anyway it wasnāt a big shock, they were actually betting favourites at the kick off.
7.) 09 Jan 2021 19:10:48
Fred that's exactly it we need to stop or it will just get worst.
Youve obviously not been affected so i get it.
But you will be its a matter of time till affects you or your loved ones.
Then you might see things differently.
Its not a lockdown anyway just in name.
8.) 09 Jan 2021 19:20:09
It does send out the wrong message big time.
Whats the point asking us to obey social distancing and not seeing our loved ones?
When that's allowed?
Not sure why i'm allowed to go into peoples houses to do renovation.
Anyway i'm not, called a halt to it as as far as i'm concerned its not necessary to carry out such work.
Empty house I'll work but not when they are living there.
03 Jan 2021 13:55:39
Reading down these posts since yesterday, I'd just like to say, if this is the reaction to a win, at a place we don't win at very often, I'm glad we didn't get beat, no it wasn't great to watch, but conditions weren't exactly conducive to pretty football, it was the type of away performance that nearly got us top 6 last year, we have now gone 5 unbeaten, the manager now has a bit of respite before the next league game, to sort a few things out, this squad is not a bottom half squad, and I don't believe we will finish bottom half, despite what some say on here it has proven quality championship players, and I believe will improve now the manager is at least being consistent with his selections, we've all got different opinions on who should be in the team, but that's the lot of any manager, I don't get all the negativity on the back of 5 unbeaten, just saying,
1.) 03 Jan 2021 16:26:37
Stevie mate we bossed the first half did everthing right barring the final ball.
Same at stoke we bossed the second half.
It is five unbeaten but its only seven points.
No shots on target is always going to spell trouble and remember they hit the woodwork twice, we won't be that lucky every game.
Its not moaning its a fact and a worrying one.
Opinions divide opinions.
2.) 03 Jan 2021 16:56:43
Guys i only point out as i see it and i think you will find i have been glowing about many aspects of our developing game. Ff i thought it was 2 wins and 3 draws 9 points.
3.) 03 Jan 2021 17:13:09
My mistake.
But doesn't gliss over the real problem.
4.) 03 Jan 2021 18:02:16
Ff79 I respect your point of view, but I think a few games unbeaten might build some confidence, most of these players are underperforming, and a bit of confidence will do them a world of good,
5.) 03 Jan 2021 18:15:21
Confidence is massive stevie as is team spirit as carlo pointed out.
The way we set up and play lacks goals though.
To me we haven't changed since karanka, same old boring football with mass turnover of players.
Everyone was criticising Lamouchi for his tactics but it seems its not allowed to say hughton is no better?
6.) 03 Jan 2021 18:23:32
It will build some confidence which may breed some better performances, it needs to because games will not be won consistently with 1 shot on target, that really does need to change very quickly but conceding less is a good habit to build whatās needed for a winning habit .
7.) 03 Jan 2021 18:28:37
Stevie, just answering your point directly, yesterday - great to win a game of football and frankly I doubt anyone Weill pop to deepdale and deliver a convincing performance.
That said I donāt think it matters who we play at the minute we just canāt produce a performance that shows a unified team that has a plan. Football is a team game, if the lack of unification and cohesion doesnāt worry you, fair enough but it tells me there are things wrong at the club that will continue to make us Struggle.
01 Jan 2021 20:55:55
Looks like I on my own here, I was encouraged by our last half hour v stoke, the fact we're in the bottom 3 is disappointing. but I still think we have the squad to move up the table, but the manager needs to sort that midfield 3 of Cafu, Yates, and sow, we only need one of those in my opinion,
1.) 01 Jan 2021 21:59:01
Everyone to their own stevie.
But its always a second half after we forget the first and are a goal down and chasing the game.
2.) 01 Jan 2021 22:09:40
Stevie, I was encouraged too. You know why? Because old Chris pushed the lads 20 yards further up the pitch and we started playing football. Problem being, old Chris likes to be at least a goal down before he believes in his players and takes the reigns off. Imagine if we pushed that 20 yards up from the kick off, we might not be destined for relegation. Knockhaert, Ameobi, Lolley, Mighten, Grabban, Taylor - most championship managers would give their right arm to have those names in their sqaud. Not CH, he makes them completely ineffective.
29 Dec 2020 21:13:27
Is anybody in a forest shirt actually interested?
07 Oct 2020 10:15:23
Damson red a bit of contradictory post, you start off by saying our club is an utter joke, and finish saying youāll always support the great club that is Nottingham forest.
06 Oct 2020 17:23:04
Itāll probably be wrong then,
29 Sep 2020 20:04:17
Was never good enough mate, a horrendous mistake,
26 Sep 2020 08:34:11
Ff79 yep thatās a good idea, get rid of the man paying the bills, would you fund the club in the meantme mate?, remember when doughty pulled the plug,? we sold bamford and Morgan just to pay the bills? Not that easy to get new owners, especially these days,
28 Aug 2020 08:05:46
Donāt think this signing was expected to be exciting, and as I said on here before Iām not, but give the bloke a chance, he may have played for Morton, but heās also had champions league experience on the flip side.
17 Jan 2021 11:19:49
Is anybody really interested in what warnock says?
17 Jan 2021 08:21:21

17 Jan 2021 07:26:25
Ff79 agreed I look like a wild man mate, even more so than normal, loll.
17 Jan 2021 07:24:18
