Nottingham Forest - Derby Cheating County

[King Joe]

Surely dickhead morrison should not have been on the pitch at the end of match squabble,
he had already been sent off so should have been in the dressing room.

Absolutely bossed that midfield colback , yates and garner bossed if , as soon has coops switched up the formation we were winning the ball an extra 20 yards up the pitch. If only Davis could shoot , i think it needs to be wither him or  Grabbs not both , hopefully wallace and or bowler come in and fight it out for the the other forward roles with zinc to play with Johnson . Also massive shout out for McKenna who was colossal i think is our best signing in a long time and Lowe who grew into the game after a lay off .

Lowe did grow into the game.

Sorely missed.

The team, far more balanced with him in it.  More swagger.

The previous attack just before the BJ goal, BJ ran for back post, Zinc told him he had wanted him to go penalty spot. Couple of mins later, Zinc to pen spot, BJ there to score a great goal.
My opinion of both of them has increased, and I think shows that the team has a real good chemistry.

Yes I saw that too, was great to see. Zinc has looked the business coming on as sub in both the last 2 games, reckon he will start on Tuesday and Cooper may rotate a few.

[Tricky]

It would be nice if we could sign Zinckernagel either in this window or in the summer. He is a good skilful player to have in the squad and goes about his business in a calm, quiet manner

[ozzyten10]

Zink man is a real team player - I remember him talking back through his first game and moments later after advice back and him combined for a goal.

I’d love to sign him permanently.

Was Jack Colback kicked in the back by Sibley when he was on the ground?

Ha! Was that before or after Jack gave him a load of sarcastic lip? Never like to see the rolling clutching of face when you havent been touched though, man up!

I don't like to see all the pantomime stuff.  Even Brennan doing a bit of 'face holding' when no one touched him earlier in the season?  But Forest are behaving streetwise.  They're not going to just 'take it' any more.  Forest used to be a 'nice boy' side.  It didn't do Forest much favours as the Cardiffs of the world 'old manned' us.

It's good to see we can 'play the game.'

Not a reality a purest Clough fan like myself likes to see.  But even Kenny Burns would 'side swipe' Keegan in the wind pipe after chewing on red meat pre-match.  'Yahy, yay, snarl..etc.'

Samba perphaps took the gamesmanship too far yesterday.  But I had to smile at his enthusiasm for his pantomime role.  He played on with his egg on his head.  No faint heart him.

Forest were all in the for cause vs Derby.  If they had to squeeze Sibley's spuds or his head to do so...

Derby went in to dish it out.  We out 'gamed' them and stood up for ourselves.  We out psyched them.  

They couldn't push us around.  We didn't choke.

Augurs well for a top 6 push.

SA.

[Salvatore Matrecano]

I agree, there is a fine line between getting in their heads and blatant gamesmanship, you are correct Clough wouldnt have liked some things that went off. Thought Samba was very lucky not to see red.

To that end I assume both teams will get fined for failing to control their players at the end, how Derby will pay that will be amusing. Suspect Forest are looking at an additional fine for crowd behaviour too, multiple smoke bombs on the pitch and the second match in a row there have been pitch invasions after a goal.

Yeah I did wonder the same.

The stewarding has really dropped this season, I reckon there were five or six people around me with pints in there hand during the game.

The lip was straight after in response to the kick. 

I love to see our players schooling the oppo. For so long we've been powder puff.

Jack is a master of the dark art of gamesmanship, you can tell that from reading the constant complaining from other teams fans in the opponents comments thread
