• All - you probably don't need to be told, but....
    Despite the Admins' best efforts some spammers/scammers/scalpers are getting through the entry system and are, astonishingly, in possession of FA Cup tickets that they, astonishingly, don't want!

    It's probably a scam, and either way it's a criminal offence under section 166 of the Criminal Justice and Public Order Act 1994, (as amended by the Violent Crime Reduction Act 2006) to offer or expose tickets for sale.

    Please DO NOT engage with these people - please REPORT any threads/posts offering tickets for sale in case we've not caught them.
    Thanks!

The ‘I have something to say about Forest that doesn’t warrant its own thread’ Thread

It also says Immaculate and seems to give him 10 out of 10, which might also be considered bizarre…
Immaculate is the name of the card series and 10 is how many of that card has been made. The lower you have the more valuable it tends to be.

I always get US cards showing up on my Facebook thread and the numbers people spend on cards is mad. And people literally spends thousand buying cases hoping to find these cards. It’s the same with Pokemon. Suppose it’s not too dissimilar to ticket touts.

Yes, I realised Immaculate was the name of the series but thought it sounded a little ironic when associated with Darlow. Had no clue what the 10 out of 10 was all about though…

I thought it was pretty good

I really liked his idea of reversing the decision if players are time wasting. That is the best solution I have heard to time wasting, it would stop it instantly.
I liked that idea and enjoyed the interview in general. It's quite clear that Clattenburg basically can't describe his role at the club so either he basically did nothing of note to earn his coin or he really doesn't want to divulge. It's difficult to really get across just how hard done to we were last season without sounding like a typical 'Victim FC', especially to non-Forest supporters or morons like Carragher.

One thing that was also clear from it is that refs just can't win either way. He's pulled up by a fan for not applying the exact letter of the law and using discretion instead. Normally supporters moan that the refs don't let the game flow enough or that they're petty jobsworths.

Also Carragher clearly hadn't done even the most basic of research or he would have known that Mark left his role at Forest at the end of last season

What happens when a goalie wastes time? Penalty?

What interests me about goalies time wasting. Any record of a keeper actually being sent off for two yellow cards for time wasting? Normally they accept the one yellow, then waste time with impunity because they are not going to get another.

Twats like Carragher will never understand because the clubs they watch every week get matches handed to them constantly. If Liverpool got the decisions we got last year they would have rewritten the entire rule book. Look at how quickly Coote’s was thrown to the dogs, we all know it was because Liverpool was the team he had a gripe with.

Look at the difference in our results this year with a small turnover of players. That should tell them that we may have actually had a point when we were screaming that we were getting shafted every week.

They tried to get him to say that he and EM believed that Atwell was biased because of him being a Luton fan and that was wrong. I'm pretty sure I know what Carragher would have thought if he was playing and a Man Utd fan was reffing and gave 3 penalties against them.

Said it on here before but Virgil van Dijk gets away with more fouls at Liverpool than any player I've ever seen

If he played for Forest he'd be getting booked left right and centre

He literally walks around the pitch fouling absolutely everybody

It’s easy to be the best defender in the world when you have free reign to just ragdoll attackers, I can’t believe what he gets away with compared to other defenders.

Stuff like that which isn’t direct action to goals but they just give certain clubs & players protection boils my blood as it turns games in their favour constantly, but because it’s not in your face and obvious you are a nut job if you think some clubs don’t get decisions against them…

As I say, twats like Carragher will never ever understand stuff like this

How about......Indirect Free Kick from where the Goalkeeper was positioned when time-wasting. Although the Authorities should notify the Clubs, and Fans about interpretation or rule changes to avoid confusion and complaints.

Of Course there are strict rules on the time period a Goalkeeper can handle and control the ball inside their box, similarly passing back to the goalkeeper (as we all know). When a Referee does identify an offence occurs an in-direct free-kick is usually awarded. Although when these incidents have occured, the furore afterwards is usually unbelievable.

Got this lovely keychain with the Milenković away shirt and scarf today!
I think this is a great way to keep historical moments, I wish there were more football merch like these.

I wish tickets were only 7 or 8 times the price of the programme these days…
Factoring in inflation, and the conversion from the Deutschmark to the Euro, that 11DM ticket would cost about €30 today.

I suspect a ticket to the European Cup Final actually costs a bit more than €30, though!

I remember the days when the humble 5p piece was much sought after by my German friends as it was the same size and weight as a Deutschmark. The latter was worth 4 or 5 times as much so they liked to use the 5p coins to get themselves bargain prices in slot machines…

This popped up on my Facebook feed. 1978. Seems like yesterday...
Proof indeed, that as well as being magic, Nottingham Forest are better than Billy Joel and Queen.

Oh and I remember buying #37 with my pocket money. That was the start of a lifelong love affair with Ladbroke Grove‘s most famous sons.
