There was a slight contact but not enough for Johnson to go down, it wasn't a pen. Felipe though had his hand on their blokes shoulder and had a little tug. Hate to say it but I hope you respect my honesty, I think it was a pen.

One (sort of) positive I did want to point out today but how bad were Wolves? Defended well in their penalty area but going forward, absolute garbage. Traore was terrible and they kept just passing it out of play.
I was panicking about Bournemouth but Wolves, Southampton, Leeds, Everton gives me hope.

Every man and his dog knew that when we took off Dennis we should have brought on Taiwo.
We did.
But bringing on too many at once when they have the upper hand is a real gamble.
So, first we sorted the most important issue which was the defence
BC and PT both said build your team from the back because they were right.
Then we changed things up front. In the meantime Danilo filled in up front for Dennis (and did pretty well too apart from his shooting).

If you take off an attacker and put on a defender then you invite pressure.
Wolves changed shape and went 3 at the back, 2 centre forwards man to man with our 2 CB’s.
They had Podence playing narrow and were going to cause us real issues had we not matched them.
If we didn’t make the change and conceded, people would still be criticising !
At least some people understand the thought process behind it.
Thank you

Agree that Wolves are shit.
There is still hope.

How about we bring on Taiwo and give Wolves something to think about?
Make them think twice about pushing forward and leaving space at the back for MGW, Johnno and Taiwo to exploit.
I bet Wolves coaching staff were rubbing their hands when we took off Dennis and brought Worrall on.
Talk about handing the initiative to the opposition.
I could perhaps understand it if we were playing away.
Would any other coach in the PL playing at home against a team like Wolves do something like that? I very much doubt it.

We played well today and Dennis did absolutely butcher a great chance to go two up. Regarding Taiwo, he hasn’t played for nearly two months. I am sure the pre-arranged plan was to give him 15 minutes. Maybe you can argue we shouldn’t have brought Worrall to match them up but if we hadn’t done that and they had scored some fans would say why didn’t the manager bring a defender and try and take what we got. Cooper doesn’t get his substitutions right every week. He made some in the last 20 mins against City in which contributed to us getting a point we had no right to get with so being so outplayed. In his tenure at Forest, Cooper has got more right than wrong. If he hadn’t we wouldn’t even be playing in the premier league in 14th place with ten games to go. This talk of sacking our most successful manager for a very long time is extremely bizarre.
RE: Nottingham Forest - Wolves - Sniffer Dog (Admin) - 01-04-2023
Nobody said anyone should be sacked.
We are discussing the game and sub's etc.
We don't have to agree and we can respect others opinions.
RE: Nottingham Forest - Wolves - Sniffer Dog (Admin) - 01-04-2023
Bloody Marinakis fault, selling Podence to Wolves.
RE: Nottingham Forest - Wolves - wassy04 - 01-04-2023
Unrelated but two things I enjoyed today. One mentioned on the Freuler page, but Mangala being on the ground and trying to tackle with his head was both funny and impressive.
Also, Dennis thinking he was capable of scoring a scissor kick. If that goes in we're staying up, end of.
RE: Nottingham Forest - Wolves - Paplane - 01-04-2023
I think Cooper got it pretty right today. None of us would have put Danilo back in but he was right to. He took Toff off at the right time and Worral added some solidity and leadership at the back when he came on. Apart form their lucky goal they didnt reallycause us too mamy problems.. I also think it's right that Dennis is getting some decent game time. He's the 2nd most frustrating footballer ive seen (behind Franz Carr), but there's a decent player there in sure.
Despite the poor result there were definately green shoots of better form there today. Its a shame it might comw to fruition too late to save us now.
RE: Nottingham Forest - Wolves - Madforit - 01-04-2023
We played well and until Cooper bottled it and made those changes, I couldn't really see them getting anything from that game.
