think it was sarcasm

[Fry Crayola]

If you only had a third of the stadia, you'd not be able to kill as many migrant workers through neglect, abuse and exploitation. 

[wev]

You can just see that these Forest players don't know each other, there's no organisation at all

[Naysonymous]

So 0-0 then?

[wev]

Unless Johnson can produce some magic I can't see Forest getting a point from what we've seen so far this season

[Shimmyhill]

Great timing lads….

Nope.

Forest concede for fun, Villa can't score, Villa have an appalling record in Monday night matches and infamously Villa are the club that loves to help out strugglers - striker can't score, team can't keep a clean sheet, manager having a mare? Here's Villa to help.

[wev]

Is Sam Ryder the assistant coach at Villa?

[Naysonymous]

Say the line @Chindie

Sack him?

[Shimmyhill]

I didn’t know Aurier was at Forest - he is a ledgend, will either score a worldie or get sent off in almost every game!!

 

ahhhh see he is going for the sending off today 🤣

Rolling back the years.

Don't forget his other special move - the needless slide tackle leading to a penalty. 

[Chindie]

I genuinely hate Gerrard. We play terrible football terribly under him.

Ahh yes of course -  worldie / pen / red, he was close to all in one game I recall!

If he could only defend he would have been a quality player. Occasionally his crossing was absolutely top notch. I imagine he would have driven Conte mad.

[Chindie]

Purest shite.

He's unlikely to get sacked though? He must have a few weeks left in him at least.

Sadly it's unlikely, yes. It shouldn't be, he's so bad, but given the investment and the fact the CEO has essentially put his name on the line with him he's going to be given absolutely every chance he possibly can.

 

Which is particularly annoying as when we (rightly) sacked Smith, it was justified as but doing continuous improvement... But we're arguably worse now than then.

[Stoppy2000]

This has been a poor game to watch.

[Shimmyhill]

Brucie boy is available…..

[Art Vandelay]

This game is a great advertisement for going to a dark room and screaming into a pillow for a bit.

[Stoppy2000]

I feel like aurier going off has denied us the only potential entertainment. 

[wev]

Feels like whilst Forest shouldn't/can't play Gibbs-White and Lingard at the same time, they also really need someone to partner Cook or McKenna and not have them on the pitch at the same time at this level.

 

Also, they could really do with Zinkernagal

[wev]

Why didn't McGinn put his laces through that?

[Chindie]

This is so fucking bad.

[wev]

Roy Keane's going to be furious that he's had to watch this.

 

I mean, Villa are doing the defending for Forest now

They should announce that the post match analysis has been replaced by something more entertaining. Highlights of 'the queue' livestream or similar.
