Blueprint to beat #nffc on show yet again and we have no idea what to do, opposition sit deep, leave no space on turnovers, wait until we run out of steam on 60mins and make a mistake, score and then defend again, same game week after week after week
So #nffc the good - Jair Cunha, looks a proper player, real pace too and most importantly of course we’re through. The bad - the Yeovil vibes, McAtee yet again and the son of Silenzi upfront, dear God our recruitment stinks the place out. But we’re still in Europe!
Have to take first half chances, positive performance but must score when we were so on top and against that horrible club too. Can we bring big T on instead of the new Silenzi too next time pls #nffc #gutted
And Lorenzo Lucca - Andrea Silenzi’s less talented son #nffc
That was soul destroyingly bad, what does the management coach during the week, certainly not how to break a team down, absolutely baffling. #nffc
Coming back to 2-1 down their crowd were getting nervous and we commit suicide, then John pretending to be injured was a disgrace, was sitting behind the bench and the management knew he was feigning it, awful, looks bleak for us #nffc
Would love 3 ex Forest players to succeed but that, like Fulham, was dreadful. The lack of a plan & tactical approach to break a deep sitting team is a direct reflection on the management. Width, runners beyond the striker, speed of pass & keeping it on the floor were needed & none were there #nffc
RIP Robbo- simply the best we’ve ever had #nffc
Top performance with a bit of swagger, CHO & Sangare excellent and Igor Jesus like Velcro, everything sticks to him superb! #nffc #velcro
2 punctures on the M6, new tyres currently being fitted so £300 worse off, plus 2 tickets bought and not used, watched the match in the services on a phone, someone remind me why I watch Forest please???!!! Thank f*** we won u reds! #nffc
Tactically outdone in the first half, one of the CBs had to be braver and go with their forward dropping deep. Second half better but thought Brighton defended very well, had chances for a point but got what we deserved. Big game Wednesday, 3 points a must #nffc
Potentially, I’m slightly biased but did Murillo just put in one of the all round, not just defensive, great performances of the season? Built like Tyson but feet like Travolta, the boys got all the moves.
What a result and what a performance against a team us old boys detest more than any, the “this means more” plastic glory hunters, their fans that robbed us of European football for years and for John effin Aldridge in that game. What a way to get our team back c’mon u reds! #nffc
Not pretty, not flowing but gritty and deserved. Plus a few early signs of players really understanding what’s needed for success? Ndoye, Sangare and Hutchinson cameo all major positives today #nffc
Very poor, confidence from Thursday disappeared and complete route 1 by the end. Devoid of structure and patterns, players disagreeing on the pitch, not a good look, worrying times. #nffc
Didn’t that feel great, players, fans and manager united and together. A pleasure to be a part of, great start Sean, Stoney and Woany. #nffc
Right decision to admit quickly the error in appointing him in the first place as there is time to rescue the season. New boss needs humility, connection with the club and fans and to instill confidence as it seems woefully short in all players. #nffc
100% correct, key one being if you want to move forward as a possession based side then Yates is simply not technically good enough to retain the ball or receive in tight areas. Have to move on from him if the team is to progress.
Disappointing but expected, Arsenal excellent, sadly only Ando was for us. That’s the free hit gone, over to you Ange, pleased to see MGW hooked, despite me loving him, and CHO who was poor again and never beats his man. Need zip, energy and belief, give them confidence Ange and a plan pls #nffc
MGW outstanding but leaving the ground it’s Ando MotM for all of us, strength, drive, passing, touch he has the lot #nffc #geordiemaradona
Never post during a match normally but Elliot Anderson is playing football from another planet, we’ve not had someone this good since Keane, unbelievable #nffc
Blimey, how good was that! Captured the spirit and history of the club and had Psycho bringing a tear to my eye, especially with the lad in it who was the spitting image of young punk Psycho when he first signed. Roll on Sunday U Reds! #nffc
England, oh dear. V talented big club players thinking just turn up & achieve success. Face a hungry side & lack of desire catches them out. Bellingham, Saka, Madueke demanding fouls whenever they lost the ball, Rice and Lewis Skelly non-existent. All great talents but look entitled in their play.
Great to see different teams and styles being successful, I’m biased but Forest and their pace & counter attack plus Newcastle & Villa with their attacking games, Bournemouth with their energy and pressing, Palace with their passion and style, teams playing in different ways is so good for football
And Milenkovic surely man of the match and my player of the season, transformed this team with a lot of help from Murillo and Sels #nffc
Character, character, character #nffc thats a real balls out performance u reds!
Yeovil in the playoffs, Blackpool in the playoffs, MK Dons away, Oldham away, Megson, McLeish and David effin Platt, and some people boo today??? We’re in Europe, Wembley trip in the cup and established in the Prem, enjoy it reds what a season it’s been no matter what happens now #nffc
As good things happen to good people, huge credit to Harry Toffolo who despite rarely playing gives his all & is a model pro and completed one of the greatest ever goal line clearances against Spurs, can you think of a better one? Will that secure Forest a Champions League spot?
Never been wetter and never come closer to a serious kicking after that game, what a day though!
And don’t forget Nosey Parker at Bristol City, singing in the rain as the coins came raining down and then it all kicked off after the game great days!
