I'm guessing that people get tickets in the Main Stand then congregate up in A Block where their mates are. Row behind me was still to a seat yesterday so it makes no bloody difference anyway!

It is what it is Cloughie! I wrongly assumed that a website dedicated to league position may have the correct info!
The points still stand, we ain't doomed yet, Nuno isn't the magic bullet and our problems run far deeper than the manager.

Agreed,Wes-the bookmakers still think we’ll stay up although personally I think it mayIt is what it is Cloughie! I wrong lyrics assumed that a website dedicated to league position may have the correct info!

be a tall order.
I think we all know that the manager (SC or Nuno-both very capable men) aren’t the cause
of the current problems at Forest.

We definitely need to guard against complacency especially given that we are Nottingham Forest and guaranteed to end bad runs!!

I get nicknames like Psycho etc., but I becoming mystified by some which are neither fun nor clear. Trying to disentangle them is a problem which is too much for my old brain. I just give up and dump the post.

We seem to be up against everything possible to put us down, we will need a miracle to stay up with the points deduction
coming our way.
We played well, and could have beat newky, 3-2 if the ref and var had not robbed us of a penalty.¹

The horse bashing ****witts are no bench though mark tbh. Pushing, kicking… cheating. Forest had to get down to their turgid shit in the second half
Had Awoniyi been awarded the pen even a 2-2 would be flattering them overall. Forest did plenty in that game
Sort out the defence, we’re better than Newcastle

Problem is Forest haven't and thus aren't and time is quickly running out.

From MC:
And in his column for the Mail, former Premier League referee Clattenburg compared Awoniyi’s non-penalty with the spot-kick won by Diogo Jota at home to Newcastle on New Year’s Day.
“Just last month, Liverpool were awarded a penalty at Anfield when Diogo Jota was judged to have been tripped by Newcastle‘s Martin Dubravka,” Clattenburg wrote.
“Soft though it was, the decision was awarded in real time.
“The referee that day? Anthony Taylor, who did not award Nottingham Forest a penalty when Taiwo Awoniyi was tripped by the same keeper.”
Clattenburg added: “Awoniyi had more of a case than Jota – the raised right arm of Dubravka made it impossible for him to stay on his feet – yet Forest got nothing.
“It is no wonder Forest fans are asking why it is one rule for the Premier League‘s biggest clubs and another for them.”

How did Jota get a penalty for Dúbravka's challenge, but Awoniyi was denied by VAR?

A little late, but here's a few thoughts from the Newcastle game.
Their first, a very good goal. However, we were slow getting out to challenge Trippier before he launched a beautiful ball in for Bruno to finish so well.
Elanga. Could (should) have scored one before he put away a good goal following super work from MGW.
Overall, several bits of exceptional skill from Forest. It was a good game to watch.
Their second. Defensively poor, the ball bounced in the area, which cannot be allowed to happen. it's also true that the knock down to Schar was perfect for him whereas we had four or five knock downs where the ball fell to one of their giant defenders. That's football.
Their third. Frankly a foul on Dominguez as he moved to close down Bruno after Elanga's poor pass out of defence. Great finish though and if the keeper had got to it, it would have been a sensational save.
Talking of Matz Sels, I was impressed. He tried to use the ball well, and sensibly. One or two passes in the second half were just that, passes not clearances. One set Taiwo on his way.
CHO. Impressed. He got lucky with the deflection for his goal but on his overall performance he deserved that. He is getting better game by game.
Tavares. He looks so good technically, if only he could shoot. I'm pleased that Nuno is persevering as I like the look of him.
Crowd. Good. Geordie crowd, as ever, good and no prawn sandwiches although a few spotty 16 year olds behaving badly spoilt their image a bit (every club has them, and we have plenty like that unfortunately).
Officials. Obviously their are key decisions to factor in, the Taiwo penalty and the challenge on Dominguez before their third. Otherwise, we've had worse and I do have some sympathy with the officials because every EPL team (including us) tried it on ... arguing, falling over etc. It gets on my tits every game. I'd appreciate a tougher stance from the get-go. First offence, yellow, and take it from there.
Nuno and his staff. I love the fact that we try and win games. look at the subs we made, bringing on attacking player after attacking player. Our football is getting better even if the results are not yet showing that.
stadium. Geordies like it, the usual 'proper old school' comments. Water and paper towels were available. Queues for a wee were ridiculous though. Catering I cannot make any comment about because I have avoided it for years.
Onwards and upwards.
