"Did not deserve that. But I'll take it." Mm. Yes. "TERRIERS STEAL THREE POINTS!" I think the Forest website said it best. SA.

Huddersfield The Aftermath......
These Forest attackers do not deserve to be at this level. That Johnson is barely a footballer That Johnson couldn't hit a barn door! Great result Town! Keep it up next year! UTT!! Good win. I thought we did well first half. I liked seeing us be more enterprising, even if some individual play was poor leading to play breaking down. We just didn't get going 2nd half and we really were hanging on. Great win. Not vintage but winning again when we are not playing well Wow how did we win that Not pretty. But gritty. Cant say they are not playing for the shirt. Brilliant result. Not entirely deserved, but superb nonetheless. Rode our luck at times, but we could have scored a few more ourselves with more composure. After three wins on the bounce the Blackburn game is almost a free hit. Great Xmas period for Town! We’re on our way, We’re on our way. Don’t give one stuff about all the pressure we were under. It should have been 2-0. Another 3 points. Fantastic win. Rode our luck but not many will win at Forest. Genuinely a couple of players off being a very good side - into your pockets Dean and we can very easily make the play offs They ran out of ideas late on.. Great win, but still plenty to work on. We had another period of sitting off, too much space given away, not close enough to their men and an absence of tackling and fronting up the man with the ball. Some games you get away with it but not sure it's a tactic I can sit and watch. Winning ugly that was David Mellor ugly Great result but f*****g hell they don't half know how to put us through the ringer! Well I've aged about 5 years in that second half. 3 players are not as good as one Hoggy, but we absolutely mugged them there, although playing against the ref never helps. I pray to God town sign a couple if midfielders if the right ones are available and possibly even a striker to make a challenge for the greedy league. Great result and a bit of resolve shown, didn't think we'd win tonight but we got the goal. Forest will feel they should have won and probably should have, we deffo got a bit of luck tonight. Fortunate to come away with 3 points. However….it’s 3 wins on the bounce and that is all that matters. Collwill and Pearson were superb. Turton had a decent game along with holmes. Obrien superb. Fantastic win, thought we matched them first half and then got battered second half but how many games have we been like that in the past? Loads of chances and no end product. We had chances to be two up as well. Well done Town, worth it to hear the disappointment in Pruttons voice. Forest squandered some real opportunities, loads of possession, but how many real saves did Nichols have to make? Maybe 3? To be honest... the last 20 minutes Forest never looked like scoring. That certainly wasnt pretty. But wow, another 3 points. Forest had enough chances to win 3 games today, but we missed an absolute sitter and hit the bar too. Its great when it works out like today, but going forward we simply have to come up with something different once we take the lead in a game. We will eventually get punished big time sitting on leads. For now though, its a great end to the year, 3 wins on the bounce, and players who are playing for each other and the shirt. Thats a result'n half, up to boxing day Forest were one of the form teams of the division, sure we rode our luck a little but resolute defending made sure we got our reward. Not many teams will go to the city ground & come away with a win & clean sheet this season Both teams hit the bar, both keepers made decent saves (Nicholls was better) and both missed sitters (Sinani's was a worse miss). They had more shots, but we looked more likely to create a proper chance against their defense than they did against ours. Pearson was my MoM and I thought that both Turton and Toffolo played well. Colwill got Sky MoM, but I thought he wasn't at his best tonight. O'Brien played well. High is starting to look tired both physically and mentally, which isn't a surprise as it's his first full season at this level with this many games. Sinani was awful, even before the miss. Thomas didn't look up for it today, apart from a couple of bits of play. Rhodes did OK, but he's not the same type player as Ward, so it's difficult to keep playing the same way. Rhodes will need players closer to him than Ward. If you own a barn door and live near Forests training ground you can cancel your insurance What a result!!! A nervous watch but a good one - I just love watching this side. The desire to win is something to be proud of. We did have a bit of luck tonight but Forest are a good side and we earned our luck with some great blocks. O’Brien is indispensable - the amount of running he gets through and how he sets the tempo is incredible. Away at Forest with several senior pros missing through the spine of the team - huge credit to the players tonight. And a special mention for Duane Holmes - has been excellent of late and his attitude and love for the club hits you right in the heart. If he keeps this up he could become a fans favourite which would be some turnaround for the lad. Great 3 pts &, for once, an excellent points haul over Crimbo. Well done boys, let's hope Ward's breathing issues are not Covid related. Or Vaccine related! Well, considering two of our experienced centre backs were out, we played a back 4 instead of 3 centre backs, Pippa and Rhodes are both a way off match fit, we lost our top scorer early in the game, Scott High is playing every game and it is his first season playing regularly at this level, plus Forest made us look awful when they played us at ours, I would say that was a very good result. We may not look like Barcelona but we are getting results. Hope Ward is back soon, he has been excellent this season. Eating humble pie right now, after the Coventry game couldn’t see anyway of us being in this position. Well done Carlos, although Forest dominated the game, we showed a lot of back bone and resilience something I didn’t think this team has. Said before that we haven’t dealt well with shirt turnarounds previously but thought we got it bang on tonight. Thought we started the game very well, pushing on to them which seemed to rattle them. What's more we didn't ease off after 15 minutes like we normally do but did it all that 1st half. It definitely knocked Forest out of kilter. As for the 2nd half, well they were bound to push more men up so we're forced to match that. Agree we need someone with more composure on the ball, in the middle as keep giving it away just adds pressure. For the first time this season I think, our mistakes weren't punished. They might be at Blackburn however so we need to tighten up On another note was their Manager the lead singer of Level 42? Forest fans are absolute throbbers. On the tram and waiting for it at the station was absolute gold. I just LOVE listening to bitter opposition fans after we've come away with 3 points. The only negative was the they couldn't see my beaming smile behind the mask. Did they have an interview with one of the European Cup Winners in the programme? Some of them must live at the ground.?? They ran out of ideas and steam 15 minutes from the end, that would worry me as a Forest fan. Just your typical deluded fans living on past glories (before most of them were born I would imagine, especially Forest and Derby fans) of which there are many, especially in this division. We can probably add Sunderland to that list next season. Mind you there are probably Wednesday fans tweeting that they were robbed last night as well I was laughing my tits off last night listening to their shit fans, exactly the same as when we were there in 1998, yes 23 years ago when Stewart and Clyde scored in a 2-1 win i think and cloughie lost it on the TV. Nothing has changed there in a generation. It's sad really. Like all Town fans, delighted that we beat Forest. Looking at the game, possession stats were similiar, on another night, their 23 shots against 9, could have left us shipping numerous goals, if's, but's & maybe's. Don't want to complain about the Ref, but Forest committed 14 fouls, the useless Ref, missed 2 blatant fouls on O'Brien by Garner, both in front of the Ref, we committed 4 fouls! Yet we had 2 players booked & Forest 1 booked. Garner could easily been sent off. Losing Danny Ward early on was a major blow. Sinani contribution was very poor, yet he stayed on until 76 mins, we were over run in midfield. Don't think Blackburn will be so wasteful with Diaz, scoring for fun - UTT. NFFCGlory @NffcGlory Most dominant one sided game I’ve seen bar England Vs San Marino #nffc #htafc Wow. Even facing the very very stiff competion from the most f*****g deluded, living in the past, arrogant set of fans in the country this bloke must be Knobhead of the Year. We scored from a difficult chance (but missed a gobber worse than any of theirs). They couldn't. Comparing a 10-0 game to a 1-0 game, where the EXPECTED goal difference doesn't even exceed one is just plain and simply stupidity. PS What a f*****g username.... ....you've not played in the premier league in the 21st century.... What the f**k can you remember about glory. Sh8*te before Clough and Sh8*te after Clough, needed a Yorkshireman to achieve anything PPS Not surprising in a way since your whole tourism business is based upon a Yorkshireman. Who the f**k can anyone even imagine a scab bar-steward from Nottingham could "Steal from the rich & give to the poor" - someone from Nottingham would keep it for themselves, build a house and bore everyone f*****g stupid about how much their house is worth.

Millwall Fans Match Comments.....
Let's show Jed tomorrow that he is at the better club at the moment. COYL!!! 2 1 MILLWALL .COYL . Help me forget what has been a busy and interesting week at the very least. MILLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL 1-2 (Grabban 90+3) For anyone thinking of taking a Catherine Wheel or Roman Candle, watch out for the pyrotechnic sniffer dogs tomorrow. One step forward, should be a nail-biting win. 2-1Wall. By the way Steve Cooper, fell out of the ugly tree and hit every branch on the way down. Steve Cooper ....... Porthmadog's answer to Bradley Cooper. Thompson and Mahoney on the bench? That's strange. Delay must be Jed signing up Looks like the ketchup got away from the forest team in the pre match meal. well we've started bright enough,unlucky not to 1 up.keep it up lads Started with a lot of energy. Rowett been on the powder? How shit is Grabban's beard? cant keep missing these chances,recipe for disaster. Should have brought on smith. He loves scoring against this mob McNamara and Malone are playing so high up they are virtually right and left wingers. Brave. But it's nullifying their wing-backs. Great 1st half from us. Could have been 2 up but Forest came alive in the last 5 minutes! Thankfully, Bart made a terrific save from Grabban (thank God), and they had one cleared off our line! Just hope our players have the legs to go again in the 2nd half, or that we don’t get hit by a sucker punch and lose it, 1 nil. Afobe having a bit of a stinker today! Hope Bradshaw‘s injury isn’t too bad, and let’s hope Bennett can conjure up a winner, as we do not deserve to lose this game! HT 00 lions playing really well and deserve a lead, even though Forest had some chances at end of half looks like serious knee injury to Bradshaw Good half from us, would love to see the possession stats, as I can't remember them having the ball for more then 30 seconds at a time, we have had a few half chances, and Bradshaw off injured with a bad knee, everyone playing quite well, Mitchell the standout for me so far, just more of the same in the second half. Just seen the stats and only 54% possession to us, that's has to be BS I can only see this game going one way now Lost our best hope of scoring,the others are havivg a job getting theirs on target. Please prove me wrong lions. H-T 0-0. Excellent first 35 minutes, flowing football, good movement and dominating without creating a solid chance. Ojo linking the defence with the front players in a way that Jed could never do. Bradshaw a handful until he picked up an injury and be replaced by Bennett who simply doesn’t have Tom’s physical presence or energy. Could prove to be the game’s significant turning point They bossed the last 10 minutes forcing Bart to a superb reflex save. Afobe works his socks off but when he gets near their box invariably loses control and the ball and they break. Not overly optimistic for the 2nd half. Can’t see where a Lions goal will come from. Possibly Smith contests a cross with Samba, who’s useless, and we scramble one into the net Really good first 45 again. I hope we aren't running ourselves into the ground so we can't compete late on. I also hope we dont sit back after half time.. keep going for another 25/30, forest are there for the taking if we want it enough. Why has Rowett subbed Ojo for Thommo? Didn‘t see Ojo pick up an injury! Did he? Can see this being a long 45 minutes Cooper’s just hooked off their most dangerous player Obviously went to the same Management School as Rowett Some poor finishing on show from both sides.we just dont get enough players in the box to score goals If we get a point out of this game, we will be very lucky. How many chances do they need Bennett takes a quick throw and they score Rank stupidity I think you will find it was Malone, the second time he took quick throw ins and both times put us under pressure. Got away with the first one, but not the second, even though Bart saved initial shot, grabban was there to slot home. FFS Smash and grab! Should have won it in the 1st half! Rowett should have brought Smith and Mahoney on with ten to go! Mid table finish now! Goal has been coming for ages.we are far too powder puff in front of goal.all nice and tidy with zero impact Had to be that c*nt. F*cking silly beard c*nt F*cking hell - boot through the telly job!!! Rowett must be the least ambitious football manager out there. Even Rooney can get Derby winning games with a squad of freebies and youth player. But for the 21point deduction they would now be above us Deserved to lose but Afobe miss was absurd. I know he doesn’t get many chances but invariably he misses most he gets Billy and Mac superb today. Paper-thin squad already, two injuries to our better players, Thommo coming on having not played for ages, gave it a real go against a very good team who had some unreal chances to score 2nd half and yet we still could have won. Not downhearted, but a point was well within our grasp and we should not be conceding goals like that in the 92nd minute. Can't wait for Fulham away ffs 13 they scored in past 2 games We had enough chances to win it and so did they. Draw was the fair result but we shot ourselves in the foot yet again... We have no quality, Evans is one of the worst midfielders we have in years, Afobe works hard but try’s fancy touches that don’t come off, Malone is dreadful and the mistake at the end with the throw in is school boy error stuff, we huffed and puffed but to be honest I just couldn’t see us scoring and their pressure was always going to pay off. Rowett didn’t change anything when the peppered our goal around the 80th min, who gets the winner, of course the f*****g bearded wonder !!! Rowett’s 3 year plan is in year 3, so time to move on I think as this season is over, nothing to play for and to be honest can see us slipping down the table but not relegation. Missed a few home games, but all the games I have been to, still not seen us win…. Yet again a substitution which was a mystery. With Ojo on the pitch we were a threat. He goes off to be replaced by Ben. There ended any goal threat. Why couldn't he do a like for like change? Bring on Burey or Mahoney. At least there would have been some crosses coming in. I would have also took Afobe off and brought on Smith. Schoolboy error and the substitution's didnt led to our defeat. Watched Sky highlights and I reckon it’s Bennett who takes the throw. He tries to reach Malone but the ball goes to one of their players leaving Malone marooned upfield. I appreciate Malone isn’t flavour of the month for some but their goal was down to Bennett and no one else A defeat Grabb(an)Ed from the jaws of a desperate draw. We started brightly and they looked nothing like the side that beat the Gooners last week. We almost got off to a flyer. A decent ball down the middle found hot shot Tom who was upended in his forward movement. The ref was about to blow but played on and a fierce shot from Molly was pushed wide at the near post by their keeper. We kept pressing and it looked as if they would wilt. Danny was lively down the right, Murray and Molly did the same down the left and Ojo was looking a real threat in that ten role. He glided past players in the middle and set up some good opportunities down the left. They had to be on their toes to keep out a long cross from Molly on the left to Danny on the far post but it was smothered by their keeper. They really struggled to get into the game and we pressed hard and pushed forward with threat. The first turning point came on 25 when a good through ball found Tom. He cut inside from the left to the right but slipped in the box and fell awkwardly and tweaked his left knee. He cold not continue and Bennett replaced him. He does add some aggression to our forward movement but did not have the same partnership with Benik. Ten minutes later came the next turning point. Ojo got clattered in a tackle and, despite treatment, just lost his edge and was a bit of a passenger for the next ten. This coincided with them getting back in the game and some neat passing pushed them up the field. The ball flashed across our box and Bart did well to keep out their effort. We were happier to hear the half time whistle than they were. Ojo was clearly not up for returning in the second half and it was obvious that Ben was coming on as he no part in the half time kickabout. He started the second half and had some forceful runs into their half. They had other ideas. They pushed a pressed and had us on the back foot for long periods. It seemed like just a matter of time. The ball flashed across our box a couple of times, Bart made some last ditch saves, we had some last minute blocks and they had an overhead kick that just cleared our bar. We just could not keep the ball. Benik was a big offender followed by Ben who though he could outmuscle three of them in the middle rather than laying off the simple pass. As we approached injury time we came into it more. Their keeper made two blinding saves and Benik missed a great chance to put us ahead at the death. Earlier Hutch was crocked but played on but only looked 80%. Then we pushed the self destruct button. We gave the ball away cheaply in their half, they sprinted down the right, pushed it inside and a low cross was turned home by the bearded one who was designed to score. They went nuts and their celebrations were way over the top. It was very disappointing. Bart made one decent save in the first half and several decent saves to keep us in it in the second half. Danny played well, was solid in defence and threatening in attack and probably shaded MOM. Hutch was solid, Cooper was a good partner and Murray was his usual dependable self. Billy ran his nuts off in the middle, Evans was OK in parts, Molly looked full of energy and Ojo looked very good in parts. Benik flattered to deceive and did not make the best of his opportunities. Tom looked sharp until his injury. Bennett was aggressive and tried hard to push us forward. Ben tried but tried too hard and had little impact late on. All in all it was very disappointing. We were hanging on but just couldn’t see out the last couple of minutes and fell to defeat. excellent game of football. but when both bradshaw and ojo came off we had to rely on blood and thunder and it just won't cut it at this level. but no complaints really. if ojo, bradshaw and jed are injured, then bleak few weeks ahead. maybe we need to get tyler involved more and mahooney.

sheep comments Pre Match......
Minor fixture. Little importance. Nothing to see here. I currently have no interest in this at all in fact we should tell them we may not turn up, if it was a midweek fixture it would have been cancelled already as the schools won’t allow the kids the time off to play. 6 minutes in, applause for a young lad that passed away aged 6. Should put all matters aside to support this gesture. I appreciate emotions are running high at the minute and will be even more so on Saturday with barbs about our current situation no doubt coming out way from the forest fans but would implore all rams going to the game to respect this and to even join in if possible. Forest threats are Johnson's pace which up against Foz and Davies is a little frightening to say the least, so maybe leave Festy on the left and try and force him and Spence into their own half more? Davis looks like a bit of a beast, so could be a test for Byrne/Stearman. Go tough to be beat for 60mins, then bring on Colin? Or start with him, but not have much by way of threat off the bench? Selection wise is a "who is still at the club" isn't it? I am wondering if the admin are going to think, if they have to sell, they'll do it all in the last week and between now and then make whatever desperate efforts to find funds elsewhere? Not sure if that's the best practice, but it's what I think will happen. Look on the bright side. Win this and even if we get liquidated we get to keep the Brian Clough for ever!Strange for one of the biggest matches of most seasons to be overshadowed in such a way, the bigger picture understandably takes priority. I suspect the atmosphere will be more fiery than normal with plenty of their fans keen to rub salt in Look to take the game to then, Festy to scare em with his pace, hope for a good performance and another good result, regardless of their good form. There are actually plenty of normal people who will be at the game who follow forest who will know how close they are to serious trouble and be aware of how their club have been masking costs although there will be plenty who will be thinking they will be promoted due to winning a few more points than a side with pensionable footballers and under 21s Wouldn’t it be powerful if the Forest supporters club spoke out in support of Derby’s situation ahead of the game on Saturday. See it happening? No chance Most of the knuckle draggers are to dumb to get it..they think liquidation is a new Japanese beer. Difficult to concentrate on other football matters at the moment, but Reading losing tonight would be a great result. Could really do with Blackburn getting something out of the Hull game as well. Out of interest, when are our friends Boro playing next. I hope the fans of whoever they are playing give them loads of abuse. Notts Forest 1 Angry Derby 5 Florist 2 Rams 1 Captain Tom Nottingham Forest 1, Derby County 1. Kazim-Richards.
