Opposition fans' comments: Forest v Palace

HBB

Jack Burkitt
HBB says: Decent bunch of fans, almost as worried about relegation as us in some ways and pretty much as down on their side and Glasner as some of us are with Nuno at the moment. Very wary before the game and probably more predicting a draw or a defeat than hoping for a win. Hated the first half as any football aficionado would be and in the main appreciative of our improved second half, alot of nerves given their habit of conceding late on so most happy with the draw given the way other results went. They're now pretty confident of staying up.

Maybe optimistically I’m assuming we’ve shored up the defences a bit, and even with Henderson in goal we’ll be good for a point. 1-1

Double European Cup winner Larry Lloyd has died. RIP. Now what with this sad news & the points deduction, we are going to get hammered. 3-1

I predicted 2-1 to Nottm Forest before I was aware that Johnstone and Munoz would be missing. I now fear a heavier defeat.

Very good fanbase. Kinda similar to ours when we first came up.

As for the Forest Tifo and banner, 'we shall overcome' surely it would be a bit more factual if it had been 'we shall overspend'

Luton leading, Forest should be nervy... or fired up...

BOOM! That was beautiful.

Fair to say we haven't responded well to going a goal up.

I'd take a point right now

Forest in complete control

For all their possession and attacks they haven’t laid a glove on us yet

So far, this looks like every other match we've played this season. We'll keep hanging back farther and farther until we inevitably concede. Then Forest will throw everything at us to make it 2-1. Then we'll try to play forward, and immediately give up a counter to make it 3-1.

(1-1) oh well that's not a surprise is it. Oh Hendo

Fair enough, people were right about Henderson

Sorry folks but that feels like a loss again

Garbage match. Crap point against a crap side, and we continue to limp to the finish line of this horrible season.

Oh well. At least we didn't concede late on. With the chances we had we should have won the game comfortably. Can't see Forest surviving based on that performance.

At least we didn’t lose, bar that, not great viewing

It's a bonus that it takes two points away from Forest.

Yep. That's a better result for us than for them. If they can't beat out severely depleted squad at home I think they have more to worry about than we do.

Must confess to having a considerable amount of respect for that point.

A draw was probably a fair result but we defo had the better chances and could easily have walked away with the win.

I pity any neutral fan who watched that dross. Awful football all around. Forest are so bad, and we matched them.

At least Henderson was punching crosses clear which was important. Also we have to remember Forest have spent a fortune on their Squad. Just glad we didn’t get Nuno.

Respect the point as Big Sam used to say. Forest will look at it as valuable points dropped.

Good point. A real mixture of good and bad. It took a hotly disputed goal from Liverpool to beat Forest last time out, just for a bit of perspective. Wood scored that day too.

Biggest positive for me is that Forest have a bit more fight in them than I thought they would have. I was worried they'd struggle to finish above Everton even if they got a second points deduction but on today's showing I fancy Everton to get relegated provided Luton can find a win or two.

Just got on the train. First visit to Forest and thoroughly enjoyed it. Frustrating game but I think a point is a fair result. Forest were poor going forward and will have to work to stay up.

I'm quite surprised by the general negativity, I think Forest are a better team than their position shows, well they are cos of the points deduction, fighting for their lives, it was a tough game.I think Forest is probably the best home support in the Prem, might be wrong but it always seems to be a good home crowd.

Every team seems to think their imjury list is bigger than anyone else's. And our squad must have cost more than their's because we spent a bit in our first season , forgetting that they have been spending big bucks longer than us.

Actually not as bad as some other fans.

Don't think I've ever met a Palace fan. Once met a QPR fan.

Usually it's Arsenal, Liverpool Spurs and, round here, West Ham.

Decent bunch Palace. Never met a Palace fan online or in real life who isn't very sound 👍🤝
My ex boss is Palace and he’s a prick……..so if you ever meet a prick and he’s Palace it’ll be him.

Wonder if Mark Steel went. He's a big Palace fan.

The fans near me dropping their banner onto lower Trent below and ruining the display summed up Forest quite nicely.

I remember years ago in my stupid youth I upset a palace fan by calling him a cockney. That didn't go down well at all.

Me and the Mrs were chatting to a lovely chap from Palace.
It was his first time at the city Ground - he had been to see Meadow Lane, and then had a walk round the WFCG,.
He is staying up in a hotel and going back when the trains are running again.
Lovely chap.
He predicted a 1-1 and I hope he has a lovely weekend.
 
Can’t argue with most of the comments and, fair play to their travelling fans, they were up their feet clapping for Big Larry before we were.
Yes, I noticed that. Impressed.

I don’t mind Palace.

They also have the award for the greatest tifo of all time with their Maxi Jazz tribute when we played them last season.

Cheers HBB!

This properly made me laugh:

"As for the Forest Tifo and banner, 'we shall overcome' surely it would be a bit more factual if it had been 'we shall overspend" 😆😆

I think I met him in the hotel I'm staying in in the city centre, had a chat with him in the breakfast area the following morning and he still had his scarf on
