The unity at Forest has been amazing. Which is incredible because of how many loan players are in the first team. We are a really good team to watch at present which is something ive not been able to say to often in the last 25 years.

Yep, disgraceful scenes against SHarpe who is one of the genuine nice guys in the game. He even played for forest. there seems to be a return of the meat heads at the grounds of late

well there you go....... Man City 2-0 down, Liverpool only needing one more goal to secure the title and Man City score 3 goals in 5 mins to close it out
Can't argue with that, really.
Newcastle finish 11th with 49 points despite only having 11 points after the first 19 games

Having complimented Man City on how well the players responded, it's a shame the fans couldn't respond in the same way. Mass pitch invasion, snapping the goal posts, players having to be surrounded by security to get them off the pitch.
I'm a massive fan of points deductions for teams whose supporters do that. I don't know why the pitch invasion is raising its ugly head again, but I do know that if it isn't nipped in the bud quickly, it'll end badly at some point

I saw footage last night of Man City fans assaulting the Villa keeper on the pitch as he was being ushered to safety. Man City have said they will give a life ban to the 'individual' involved once identified, but it looked to me as though he was struck 5 times by 5 different thugs. First he seemed to get hit by a missile of some description then someone punched his head, another tried to push him to the floor and then 2 more thumped him in the head as they ran by
No action gets taken over these incidents by the governing bodies, but heaven help the club who commits the cardinal sin of financial irregularities.... they get points deductions at the drop of a hat

Huddersfield could have had two pens, certainly one. The ref not using VAR for the second one is a was a disgrace.
BUT nice to see Forest back.

Yep on the second pen for sure. And if the 1st was given most would have accepted it. Moss is a shocking ref and there is no way he should have been given that game.
Forest had a few shockers against luton and Bournemouth. So many fans thinks it evens up, but in a cup final worth 170 mil. hard to square with that. It was a season where most things went for Forest.

I watched Forest sometime in 2021 at the start of the year when they played Peterborough, and while they beat the worst side in the league that day, they were absolutely rubbish... watched them play West Brom recently, and it was slick, dominating, positive football.... have to credit Cooper with showing patience and completely changing the team over the year, by the end they were pretty unstoppable. And the team sheet still is pretty average.
I just hope that the mad owner doesn't go bankrupting the club by spending ridiculous money on crap Portuguese players again.....
Glad to see Forest back

Forest last summer handed over the football running to Dane Murphy. He was in charge of recruitment and it was a total change in thinking.
Im guessing they will leave him in charge because it has worked so well. But with all that money its going to be hard for the owner to not meddle.
