Nottingham Forest Banter 2

15 Mar 2026 19:33:14
Just got home. Did the enjoyment outweigh the hassle and time it takes to get there? I'm starting to think if it does because my word, that was dire. Because of the free scarf thing, the atmosphere at the start was quite good but as soon as Jesus lost a 5 yard race after having a 3 yard start, Anderson's first corner going straight out of play and his laughable left foot effort. It became a bit toxic around me. The toxicity didn't last long. It very soon turned to resigned pessimistic, embarrassed laughter.

Absolutely no pace, 5 yard passes way off the mark. The first half was awful. It got slightly better with the subs. Awoniyi putting himself about was entertaining and very much appreciated but not Premier League. I thought Hutchinson was our best player on Thursday and surprised he didn't start today, and again he added something. Without a centre forward we are going to really struggle, I'm sad to say. Until Wood is fit, Awoniyi is the best of a very very poor trio. Now I'm have the first of several glasses of red.

Have a few bottles baldy you need it with being a forest fan

15 Mar 2026 21:06:57
Gazzi, you nailed it, mate. That's exactly why I have stopped going. The effort far outweighs the reward - after all it's supposed to be entertainment.
Taiwo must start from now on - he did put himself about, and it's clear to everyone now that Jesus isn't a Premier League player. He couldn't trap a bag of cement.
I couldn't tell what the game plan was in the first half, but he did change it in the second period.


Spurs could have won at Anfield today. On that showing, they will easily beat us next weekend. Sad to say it, but I think we are gone, unless we start scoring soon, it's over. I hear it's 109 shots now at home for one solitary goal. Damn lies at statistics, and all that, but it's eye opening nonetheless.

15 Mar 2026 18:35:20
Awoniyi did more in 29 minutes than Jesus did in 70. He should start next Sunday against Spurs.

Rest: Williams, Milenkovic, Murrilo, MGW, Anderson, Sangare.

Team for Midtjylland away:

Sels

Aina
Abbott
Morato
Netz

Yates
Dominguez

Ndoye
McAtee
Bakwa

Lucca.

We might as well stay at home. 🤣🤣

15 Mar 2026 19:12:59
Agree, Munmad. I've been saying it for weeks (in fact, I said it after his atrocious performances in pre-season). Good that you're seeing things as clearly as I do, and not negatively towards the club. Jesus poses no danger whatsoever to opposition in this league.

15 Mar 2026 19:16:44
You always do, Stellaboy.
By the way, thanks for wishing me a good day in an earlier post. The 250 mile round trip was spoilt somewhat by a poxy football match sandwiched in between.

15 Mar 2026 19:36:42
Seriously, might as well declare before k.o. save everyone the hassle.

15 Mar 2026 19:32:07
Sorry baldy I actually did hope you would of had a good day.i would say it could be worse you could of been stuck at work like me.but it wouldn't of made you feel any better

15 Mar 2026 21:35:56
Netz can't play Thursday, not in squad by.

15 Mar 2026 18:26:39
Spurs have something to play for on Sunday. A draw will keep them above us. Crap Weekend, don't deserve anything.

15 Mar 2026 16:54:53
Very unlucky today, offside by a very tight margin. Awoniyi needs to start the next game and get a run. Jesus not cutting it I’m afraid. This will go to the wire. Hope we can do enough to stay up.

15 Mar 2026 17:24:06
Think we have the toughest run in of games now.

15 Mar 2026 18:12:13
Skegs, you should be quite happy then, plenty more trolling for you to do.

15 Mar 2026 18:17:10
Stevie, aka Mr Angry, you got nothing new to say. You do get boring, pal.

15 Mar 2026 18:27:15
Rich, coming from you.

15 Mar 2026 18:51:47
Very unlucky Daz, why? He was offside & that's that.

15 Mar 2026 18:49:49
Hello Mr i can't never get a team selection right.what is it pick on skegs today because you get your predictions wrong and like to happy clap and don't like fans who tell the truth.its not fifa on the Xbox boys were terrible and only 2 people to blame edu and Mr m if you don't like to hear the facts tough.and whatever you say to me I won't be running off and leaving the site crying like others do.as was said in a few good men by jack Nicholson.

You can't handle the truth 🤣🤣

15 Mar 2026 19:12:18
Skegs i actually have opinions., you just troll other peoples, you have nothing constructive to say, except exude delight at the plight of the team you reckon to support, or try to pin pathetic names on people,

15 Mar 2026 19:34:40
I said we probably have the hardest run in. You come back with your a troll, there was no opinion there or no answer, Mr Angry Boy. The fact is you can't reply and back up a team that is this crap unless your a happy clapper, simples.

15 Mar 2026 19:36:01
Skeggs, say Ndoye was onside?
And Aina's effort ricochet'd off the bar and went in?
What would your response be?
Second thoughts, don't bother, mate. 🙄

15 Mar 2026 20:34:51
He was offside, full stop. And no good hitting the bar. The goal is big enough to hit the posts; they are about 6 inches wide. Try the goal, it's massive. 🤣🤣🤣

15 Mar 2026 20:28:26
Skegs the only " happy clapper' on this site is you, you seem to be delighted at our current position, you clearly have the mind of a 5
Year old, with your pathetic labelling of other people with childish names, I'm not going to waste any more time on you,

15 Mar 2026 21:17:16
I'm not the one calling people trolls, Stevie, like you said. Let's leave it at that.

15 Mar 2026 16:02:47.
I am not on here enough but for those that wanted Dyche gone, and Nuno for that matter…. You were 100% wrong.

We are clueless and that team is not good enough to stay up. We deserve to go down.

9 years of ownership. Better than Fawaz but that’s the lowest of low bars to beat.

Mr M, I’m lost for words.

15 Mar 2026 16:47:16
I think the teams that finish in the bottom 3 deserve to go down. It's kind of the point that the worst 3 do, right.

15 Mar 2026 15:59:05
Pathetic …… couldn’t cut paper with scissors …….

15 Mar 2026 15:55:17
McAtee showing again what a total waste of time it is bringing him on! When will we realise how poor he is?

15 Mar 2026 19:13:41
RHR, we have noticed. Have you not noticed he doesn't get picked to start?

15 Mar 2026 15:49:30
McAtee for Anderson. I give up!

15 Mar 2026 16:03:32
Aina's effort, plus Ndoye a hair's breadth...
Cannot fault our effort today.

15 Mar 2026 16:04:35
Ando needs a rest.

15 Mar 2026 16:48:15
Agreed, Rog, we were very unlucky today.

15 Mar 2026 17:11:49
Unlucky. 🤣🤣 You need to score goals to win games. That's not luck, it's skill. For 70 minutes of that game, we did nothing. We're supposed to be fighting for survival. S**** coach, s**** performance.

15 Mar 2026 17:40:55
....And so it continues...

15 Mar 2026 18:18:19
Yes Rogie, the poor performances and the no goals continue, it's never ending.

15 Mar 2026 19:32:46
Sorry Rogie, but why is Skeg wrong? To score so few goals and serve up the same rubbish every week isn't down to bad luck. One-off games where nothing seems to go in happen to every team, but this is week after week - that's not bad luck - it's self-inflicted.

15 Mar 2026 19:36:52
Bit like you, mate!!!
🤣🤣🤣

15 Mar 2026 19:59:31
2 Stars, We had a goal stroked off by ridiculous VAR, I thought they were cutting that fine margins nonsense out?
And if Aina's effort had went in, it would be a different story?
However, my point is that, he still would have something negative to say?
They certainly are not going through the motions, as frustrating as it is, everyone of them has been working their socks off to try and get us out of this mess.
Skeggs gives me the impression that they have downed tools, mate?
Nothing can be further from the truth.


I do remember his sidekick also suggested that they were "Missing on purpose"???
He also said we'd get beat today, and thrashed by City?... which didn't look like "Rubbish" to me?... Neither did our performance against Arsenal.
And so it goes on and on.
How ludicrous was that?
I just wish they had a bit of belief?
Doesn't cost anything.

15 Mar 2026 20:20:35
We're just a very poor team, mate. I don't think luck really comes into it, and even if it does, it generally evens itself out over the season.

15 Mar 2026 20:45:36
I think we have a very good team, mate, since then we've only lost Elanga.
Yes, we do miss Wood big time, his stand-ins have been very poor, to say the least.
Might be far too many managers, with far too many systems since Nuno was sacked, might be having an impact on the team....
Could be wrong.

15 Mar 2026 15:46:26
Hanging on for a point in a game we have to win. Cheers Vitor.

15 Mar 2026 16:05:26
We can't score. It's hardly the Manager's fault!

15 Mar 2026 16:27:04
bsered, I disagree. He keeps playing Jesus - the bloke tries but isn't a Premier League striker. Look at the efforts Taiwo had after coming on - if he's fit he should be playing every game. Cho has looked lost in the last few weeks.

Hutchinson had a real go. I don't pick the team. The manager does. Do you realise Pereira has now taken 5 points from 54 available to him in the Premier League this season? He's out of his depth, and it shows.

15 Mar 2026 14:27:25
Stick me on the live chat please Ed,

{Ed033's Note - Perko added.

15 Mar 2026 19:22:24
You'll need to lock the razor blades away then Perko. I gave up there today, it's all doom, gloom and slagging the club off. Depressing, actually. Just the same cr 💩p being said week in, week out. 🌳

15 Mar 2026 19:44:50
Cheers Ed
