We can overhaul them without them playing anyone. Have to beat Man City though.....
Are Everton in the top 6?

Just wonder what sanctions the PL/FA will impose on Forest after that outburst.
A points deduction would really wind them up, but no doubt it will just be a warning about their future behaviour.

Good point! I was just venting against var officials who tend to favour bigger teams.

0-0 draw then as I can’t see us scoring past City eitherIt’s the hope that kills you, I will be totally gobsmacked if Mr Grumpy and his injury ravaged tired players even score a goal on Thursday let alone get a point
Forest robbed of three penalties according to Keith Hackett. VAR still a pathetic lucky dip.
Don't worry - they'll get an apology, then everything's fine!

I honestly think the issue is mainly down to VAR being there at all and made infinitely worse by VAR officials being current refs. VAR officials should be retired refs.
My preference is VAR to be binned, but that’s now very unlikely.

Confident of a win Thursday. After much careful planning of a Rome city break so that I would not miss any matches, this game was subsequently arranged for Thursday so I won’t be there

An apology … or a fine for speaking the truth

VAR officials should be trained VAR specialists. I don't think they should be refs or former refs at all.
If VAR is about correcting clear and obvious errors to the letter of the law then it doesn't need referees, it just needs people to know the laws and how to use the technology.

I disagree, I think it should be a trained referee specifically for VAR and a referee who can help give context to on field decisions but only as an advisor.
We've managed to lose less games to teams below us this season, by cleverly ensuring there are LESS teams below us to lose to...
Sheffield United are masters of this !

Not really - Last year we lost to two teams in the bottom ten - Everton (16th), Nottm Forest (17th)
AND This year we've lost to two teams in the bottom ten - Luton (18th) and Fulham (12th)
