Going to make a rare listen to Matchtalk tonight, will be interesting to see what people are saying and I just hope that its not full of the sort of idiotic comments from the matchline ...

Anyone fancy having a get together in the chat room to discus the phone in?

3 or 4 things about Smith already.

It really is laughable.

I've just text in ... to be fair I agree with a lot of whats been said so far, other than on the matchline, the comments on those were indeed laughable.

Woo it's been read out ;D

Because Smith is a good keeper, he is good enough for the Championship. I wouldn't say he is a world beater, nor he is the best keeper in the Championship (I may have gone over the top in the past, I admit), but I think he will be good enough when we have two proper full backs and another center back who is as good as Wesley, or who is as consistent.

You see something in him that I don't Jack, and that is your prerogative.

He is IMO one of a few players I would replace, it's nothing personal and I do think before I comment, although I do think some posters go over the top.

A lot of people see things in him, Rich and Baronvon do for example, and they have both played in goal at various levels, I think it must be your interpretation of what a Keeper should be good at and shouldn't.

I'm a small keeper, so I try to stick to my line, similar to Paul Smith. I guess its just your style.

Look Jack I don't need people who have played at various levels to tell me what makes a good this or good that and I'm not being flippant in my comments.

I have my FA coaching badges but I would not tell somebody that this player is good and if their opinions differ just say it's laughable.

I thought it was laughable because they were slagging off one of our players, whom we should be supporting, Smith is a good Keeper, he had a bad game on saturday, no doubt about it, but every one of our players have had bad games, Smith comes into a lot of undeserved flack.

And I said because its good to get opinions on those whom have played at various levels, some people may be commenting on Smith whilst only playing in goal for a kick about during an afternoon.

Yes in an ideal world we would support every Forest player 100% of the time.

I do think Paul Smith is a bit of a scapegoat and some of the flack is over the top, but he has to show character and come back, whether that is with us or not is a different matter, I personally think BD has seen enough of him and a few of the others, and in the summer fingers firmly crossed we are still in the championship, you will see a few changes.

Urrrgh
There are some true eejots phone in.
What annoys me are the 'no more excuses' comments.
What do they want bd to say?
And as for the smith bashing? Deplorable. He is a scapegoat or sacraficial lamb of some kind.

I agree Jimbo.

Here here! If ( :pray: ) we stay up and if ( :pray: ) BD stays I feel confident not only of an exciting summer but also confident going forwards...

I had a cheeky listen tonight and I thought the funniest comment was an older guy phoning in who was incredulous that we hadn't signed Lee Camp. I think part of the conversation went like this:

Caller: I really can't understand why we don't get Camp in. Davies needs to get him in now if he's gonna slate Smith.

Colin Fray: ...Umm, I think the fact that the transfer window is closed might stop him doing that (he'd already explained twice that we can't sign him on loan.)

Caller: ...well, Davies need to sort it out then. It's not good enough. He needs to sort it out - now.

:D

And I know people might find them annoying, but the blunt recorded messages from fans clearly ringing up just after the final whistle make me chuckle. There's usually no real attempt at analysis or reason (if they're edited, then fair enough) and just consist of "absolute garbage Forest" or the like. I think my favourite was "Smith: rubbish. Get Rid. Davies: rubbish. Get Rid."

Just proves the stupidity of some Forest fans really!
