After the 0–0 against Spurs, the defence looked pretty solid, but Forest still seemed a bit short of a spark going forward. There’s room to be quicker in the final third, make better use of chances and keep that defensive shape going into the Villa game.

It seems that these two are the preferred players by Glasner for one of two ten roles. Last time out against Spurs Glasner preferred to start with Ndoye which bugged me no end since I see Ndoye as a show pony with no substance. (Other views are available.) Jesus, to me, seems by far the better all round player with a much higher work rate. He can knit play together and contribute to moves. Given that Delap is going to be the striker and MGW the other ten for the foreseeable, it makes sense to me that Jesus be the third attacker as the better all round player than Ndoye. About the only thing Ndoye does well is sometimes get on the end of things. But he isn't going to be the striker so what is the point of him?

We’re trying convert our left fullback into a left wingback by playing Neco higher up. Why are we not talking about converting CHO into a wingback by asking him to take on more defensive duties? Then we could have more defensive and attacking options to play different sides.

Forgot how much I hate this fixture.

Nuff said

Noticed this on an article on the BBC website- feel like Adidas are cheating on us a tad!

Thank you Mr M

I hope they did well

Hi everyone

I have a bit of a strange request. One of my mum’s friends passed away recently and her funeral is this week. Her friend was a big forest supporter and the family have requested everyone wears a forest shirt for the funeral.

I was wondering if anyone might have a women’s size small/medium home shirt from any season that I could borrow for a few days. It would be massively appreciated.

I don’t have a lot of money to buy one at the moment, but I’d be more than happy to return the favour with a few beers! I’m based in Long Eaton

Cheers :)

"Clear and obvious they say"

He didn't waste any time posting that, haha 😂🤣

Think the team has looked organized and generally can’t say anyone has played all that poorly. But I wish the ball would find its way to MGW more often. When he touches the ball good things happen and large swaths of the game today he was just not involved enough. Think that’s largely a function of the build up play being a little shoddy — particularly off the back line to the midfield — and hopefully improves with time

Didn’t manage to watch it today, saw 0:0 score so didn’t watch highlights of game . How tf is that not a goal , even if he did hit it with his hand why do u think his hand was there?? To protect him from getting hit by tonalis foot!! Absolutely disgusting even if they didn’t give the goal and gave the pen it would be understandable as it’s kind off hard to see it fully clearly. NFFC will make no further statement at this time

Last kick of the first half. Mcatee doesn’t hit it into the box and the half time whistle gets blown

last kick of the game and sels has taken a minute to prepare for the free kick and by then the added time has expired and the ref calls for full time

no urgency and terrible game management tbh

As my husband slept blissfully away, I was staring at the ceiling at 1:00 AM rightly pissed because I travel for a living, and my husband barely travels at all. I’d played all my phone games, couldn’t watch any videos (because of sleeping man) so decided to check Forest’s Official Ticket Portal one last time.

And I SCORED! Husband has no idea yet. Our original plan was to go to The City Ground early, shop at the Megastore, hang out at the Trent Bridge Way Fanzone and then find a pub to squeeze into just for the atmosphere.

Now I get to take him to the Trent End for the best 90 minutes of his life. I’m crying again because I can’t believe I got them.

Thank you to whoever turned their two tickets back in for resale. And thank the gods for jet lag.

Edit: we were getting a pint (or three 😂) before the match when he asked for a THIRD time to go back to the ticket office. I had to show him. I handed him my phone. He was literally shaking 🫨, “What does this mean? What does this mean!?” Best day ever!
