jeez give it a rest, we are all wrong and you are right does that make you feel better?
Me give it a rest?
You need to give it a rest you moaning old git.
Oh I see, we are not allowed to express an opinion and when we do we get name calling/bullying. Not he first time ive noticed it along with
"its my Forum"
Show us then.
Put the links up. You are making a very big and serious accusation there so lets see the evidence to back up your claim.
I will wait...
I get easily misunderstood on this forum sometimes. Some can't take it when the debate gets a bit 'hot' and that is the truth.
Nothing wrong with some 'hot' debate but if you can't handle it then that is your problem.

Some are more sensitive than others and don't want to get involved in so called hot debate but that does not make those who do a bully that is ridiculous. We are all here for the Forest talk and some handle the heat in the kitchen better than others.
Didn't expect us to win yesterday and it was a poor team performance no reason to signal out individuals so now we dust ourselves down and move on to Manchester City next week.

Perhaps I should change my username to Stephen Sackur.

Personally I didn’t think there was a massive gap between the teams yesterday. They only really created three chances and scored two. We created a few. They had three or four shots that hit the woodwork and they were well executed but they were a good way outside the area. I thought we played quite well in the last 30 minutes. I must say though it was only when we replaced Wood Scarpa and Mangala. I don’t think anybody can argue Woods performances so far have given much reason for positivity. Yes it is early days but he is so slow and isn’t even doing the things which were on the tin, winning headers and holding the ball up

Positives
- JJS had the obligatory just back from injury stormer to change game.
- Felipe looks very decent
- Dennis (yes really) looked like a footballer and was dangerous.
- We could have nicked a point against a decent side on their own patch.
- Support was incredible.
Negatives
- Poor 1st half.
- Freakish double injury.
- Chris Wood hasn't settled in yet, reminds me of Lee Chapmans first few games for us. Unfortunately we don't have Clough, Webb, Pearce Hodge or whoever to score the goals we need from that position until he finds his feet, plus in these days of instant judgement many have written him off after these games, so can't see his confidence picking up any time soon.
- Aurier showing his inconsistency, ever since some lauded him as signing of the season- think we should judge at seasons end-same for Wood et al.
- Other results not great for us.
Overall, the game went much as expected away from home, however losing both CBs is going to disrupt, especially as Boly has become decent. Next game all that matters. Some of the reactions are a touch OTT in my opinion. Particularly love the keyboard managers saying how Cooper did this and that and should have done xyz....modern football innit.

I just think we had a tough game away at a decent opponent and came up short. We lost to a better team on the day. It happens to all sides. We got lucky a few times when they hit the woodwork but nearly got ourselves back in the game with the Shelvey cross/header but it wasnt to be. Fulham look decent and they have a decent manager. I'm not going to get too disheartened by it.

Its disappointing that we have Man City next as there were lots of positive things to build from from the second half display. Shelvey looked like rolls royce with his passing. Felipe looked like he can be a decent CB in this league. Dennis's recent improvement in performances continued. Lodi looked as good as ever. Lots of positives that will probably be lost as we chew over an inevitable defeat next week.

Let’s not forget that this Fulham team are probably a year - 18 months ahead of us in terms of their project. They had a settled team last year and had enough quality already to add a few extra players rather than needing a complete overhaul. They’re well organised under Silva and are well-equipped to not just stay up, but also to finish in the top half. We’ve obviously had a large turnover of players, but still have enough to stay up. Next season is the time to refine the squad without drastic changes, but this year we’ve been up against it given the state of our squad in the championship

SC looked and sounded mighty pissed off in the interview posted on YouTube post match.
I genuinely hope he let the players know what he felt.
16 cup finals to go.
Keep the faith.
