Outplayed but we get a goal by regaining possession by a foul, then they show urgency again and should have got a winner.
Shots 21-8
On target 4-1

But sure, let’s pretend it was a good performance and we deserved the point if it makes you happier.
Outplayed?? We certainly were not. Yes they created the better chances but we stayed in there. They are a better team. Our tactics were spot on. We did well in possession, we looked positive and tried to go forward.
As I said yesterday, give CH the summer to build a proper team, to bring in A striker, a couple of wingers, sign krov on a perm and we will be good to go.
Today was a good watch, entertaining and hard working. I am happy with the result and the performance for a change.
Yes I have questions over the selection of grabban and him being captain as well as bong being picked over and over again. I will just assume that for now it is only until the summer. We have very few other options. Taylor is poor, Murray was last seen in a nursing home and after that.... nothing.
Let’s get to the summer and see what lessons have been learnt from previous
Seriously who are you and where is Uwantlee :D :D
Can't please some people, away against 4th and we matched them for patches. Not saying we were amazing but what would have been a good performance there? An even game away at 4th? Good point against a good team, another point closer to safety, almost at the end of this tough run too.
Exactly... as for the stats yes they had more shots but they were at home and pushing for promotion. We were never going to dominate for 90 mins but we did in patches.
Was it perfect... no. Was it a huge improvement on Wednesday... yes. Should we be happy with a point... definitely.
Needs time. Need better attacking options but we have to make do until the summer. 3 wins and we will be safe.

Creating the better chances is almost the definition of outplaying the opponent.
And we were never going down. We are already safe, it’s just something else a lot of fans don’t understand.

He’ll be playing in the Premier League next season.
The only question is - for whom....

Forest could have folded after the Norwich 1st half. But they didn't. They did better 2nd half.
They took that into the 1st half vs Brentford and were holding possession and making Brentford look like the away side.
Take away Toney and Brentford aren't that special. As we proved today. Decent on the counter, yeah. But they didn't play us off the park. Think Norwich are a way better side.
1st time in a long while I've enjoyed a BBC Forest match report. They're on point here.
We had more possession than Brentford on their own turf. They fouled more. (They did have more shots on target. We made our shot on target count.)
Whilst we're in the context of a train wreck season, there's a competitive nature to a Hughton side that has Forest competing for every point and whilst it aint sexy, we should have too much character to get relegated. If we can maintain that ten point cushion over Rotherham for the next handful of games or increase it. It piles pressure on Rotherham to win all their games in hand.
