Very reasonable posts in the main, apart from the two homophobic ones, of course.https://www.forestforum.co.uk/index...e-albion-saturday-25th-november.51682/page-33

It is a really good interview.Great interview. I love the 'we have a saying in England, people in glass houses'
JPVH is well ahead of Webster now, even without Webster's continual injuries. Webbie's forte seems to be galloping forward with the ball until he loses possession or manages to find a teammate. That doesn't really fit de Zerbi's style and he's also physically weaker than Van Hecke, who is going to be absolutely top-class.I was watching from the Forest end, they were universally complimentary about JPVH
Taylor is a terribly poor referee, brimful of inconsistent decisions. The handing out of yellow cards for kicking the ball away, delaying free kicks, even stamping on players, was either completely random or biassed against Brighton. The awarding of penalties is also extremely inconsistent Both penalties today were on the soft side and the Forest one looked liked VAR evening up the Brighton one that Taylor gave.You can only push people so far with poor officiating. Once again that was beyond poor. Dunk may have let himself down, but at this level, we deserve better.
6% thought we'd win, 14% a draw. Even for a home board that feels a bit deluded. Are we still meeting underestimated?https://www.forestforum.co.uk/index...e-albion-saturday-25th-november.51682/page-33

It's ok, I've come to the conclusion that I misunderstood some posts. They were saying something like 'how is there's a penalty and ours wasn't, so I assumed we were denied one, but it was referring to the idiot commentator.Struggling to remember it if honest. But it was a batshit game.
Their home form is/was very good - first home defeat of the season! Our form has also been shaky in the league lately- can't fault them for having confidence! Luckily didn't come to pass and we were back to our best (albeit at a big cost - again!)6% thought we'd win, 14% a draw. Even for a home board that feels a bit deluded. Are we still meeting underestimated?
Don't be too down ! Lamptey is always injured and the club seem to think dunk will only miss one game.Is that what you call a Pyrrhic victory? We gained a win but lost Dunk,Fati and Lamptey, to add to the list .
So off we go to Athens and then Chelsea with god-knows-who.
Perhaps I am just feeling glum this Sunday morning, it was after all a stellar performance with clinical finishing, something we have lacked so long .
I couldnt see us winning. Not with the injuries we have and not after what happened last season at this ground. I travelled up sure that we would lose, would have been happy with a point.6% thought we'd win, 14% a draw. Even for a home board that feels a bit deluded. Are we still meeting underestimated?
And to add to that, our style of play was just as good when players came as when we started, so everyone knows howI couldnt see us winning.

We are ridiculously short on players right now. If we get through this period still in with a chance in Europe and top 6 then we are going to have a hugely successful end the the season.
This period is blooding so many players and cementing a hugely impressive mentality. If we get through it and the injured players come back we are going to be on fire
Being in the top 10 consistently for two seasons running is progress. Getting into Europe is progress, winning games in Europe is progress.I think to progress as a club, without sounding bombastic, we need to start winning games that
we clearly should be winning. It's our achilles heel. It's also b****y infuriating for us as fans.
Yes, he should.Obviously he was spot on, that's not the point. The point is whether he should be honest about how shit our refs are.
Because, on their day, any PL club can beat any other PL team. Take a game in isolation (Villa 6, Albion 1, for example) and any team looks gash when, in reality, that's clearly not always the case.Watching MoTD, how the F did we not beat Sheffield Utd . Goodness grief they are a poor team.
True. But I mean to the next level.Being in the top 10 consistently for two seasons running is progress. Getting into Europe is progress, winning games in Europe is progress.
Yep, still progressing without losing our DNA as RDZ would say - (even when booting balls out the park to get them out of the danger zone when we’re down to 10 men )And to add to that, our style of play was just as good when players came as when we started, so everyone knows how
we play and seem comfortable slotting in.
Oh, you mean winning trophies? Maybe, maybe not.True. But I mean to the next level.
I guess reaching a final here or there with more regularity. Buy maybe I'm being tooOh, you mean winning trophies? Maybe, maybe not.
