Thanks Sniff, much appreciated.

I actually agree with some of their comments to be honest, thought they were a decent side and it was reflected in how we approached the game.

However, in the end, it was only the result that mattered, and we took the three points.

[RetroRed]

Yes, thanks Sniff.

Birmingham fans during the match and post match:

We don't help ourselves do we? A really bad goal to give away - Gardner was lost on the half way line and Etheridge was a like a hologram.

The EFL points deduction has fecked our end of season relegation battle excitement. Derby and Reading would both be above us as we stand, we’d now be 3 points above the drop zone and all to play for. Feck the EFL.

DVB goalscorer too

Should have been sent off for celebrating at us.

Not even a booking was disgraceful.

Keinan David giving Nico Gordon a right lesson here so far.

It was the right match up in that Nico is our quickest, most physical defender. But yeah, he's schooling Nico right now.

Looks a bad one on Etheridge, two knees in the face. Not moved since.

Forest fans and players asking for Ethers to be sent off?

Yeah, chanting "off" when he's badly injured seems really low to me, especially when he won the ball with the tackle...

0-2. Sack him tonight. Going nowhere with him. Start to plan for next season from now.

Davis and Grabban both showing how a striker can run past defenders with the ball.

One is on loan from the Premier League the other cost £6 million.

Could say the same for Hernandez and Sunjic.

Hughton took 1 point from first 7 matches this season to have forest bottom, they bring in Cooper and play like champions taking 66 points from the following 32 games.

Forest will go up I think.

Wouldn't be surprised, Cooper has done an amazing job on them (and their board aren't a basket case).

Their penultimate game is Bournemouth, so could conceivably go up automatically in 2nd place.

You only have to look at the team we're playing today to see what getting a good manager in can do without a massive turn around in players.

Blues were absolutely chronic yesterday, an embarrasing performance.

I know Forest are a good side but they never had to get out of 1st gear to beat us.

Bowyer and Taylor Richards both said we were the better side for spells. I was there and glad you agree that's not right. Forest won with ease.

Ridiculous claim tbh.

I was there. He needs drug testing. We passed the ball well during the 12 minute spell when Etheridge was being treated!!

It's telling that not one person who was there has said they agree.

Best comment - We passed the ball well during the 12 minute spell when Etheridge was being treated!!

Best comment -  We passed the ball well during the 12 minute spell when Etheridge was being treated!!

Got to agree that comment did make me chuckle!

Got to agree that comment did make me chuckle!

The keeper being a hologram was funny too for Davis goal.

Would be interesting to see the slow meltdown during the match if anyone can find anything?

WBA Fans Match Comments.....

Well....a win tonight and it would leave us in with a chance of going to the end of the season.....Bristol City were leading stoke 1-0....

Got to laugh really, a must win game and all the bottlers are back, TGH time to look for a move, Mowett, Livermore, Reach, Bartley, Townsend for gods sake Bruce what are you playing at

I’ve predicted we’ll lose 2-1 but my gut tells me it’ll be more like 4-0 or 4-1.

We haven’t the legs to deal with a vibrant side in full flight like Forest will be if they make a fast start.

Why the f*** are we wearing that horrible Arsenal cast off shirt; has to be one of the worst ****s that Albion have ever worn. Doesn’t even feel like watching Albion in that s*** shirt.

Just what I was thinking. No rhyme or reason why they couldn’t wear the stripes. Makes me sick

Steve Cooper always looks like he's been on weed

We've started really well, just need to keep discipline and keep it going.

Keeping forest to shots outside the box so far.

Effing effing useless Cant see us coming back from this and with 70 plus minutes left

What a mess.

... ..1-0 forest and down to 10 men....hmmmmm

Absolute clown Furlong .... gets a Yellow for a stupid unnecessary foul .... then sticks his hand up in the box to stop a shot .... not the first match he’s cost us..... terrible to think we have TGH sitting on the bench ...

Season over.

Furlong.....wot a C U N T!

What an absolute bag of c rap delivermore is. The outstanding player on the pitch spence gets a yellow and captain do g sh it pulls him away when he could get sent off for dissent.

Good night....2-0

What a truly shocking referee. Penalty, yes, but never warranted a sending off. It should have been TGH in that right wing back position, wrong selection, Brucie.

Could be 5 or 6 tonight .... Bruce out .... we need someone to sort this mess out ...

What a pathetic shambles of a football team, embarrassing from top to bottom

Bruce can do one, get Rooney or Dyche in ASAP!

What was I thinking to set my alarm to watch this match and now 2 down with 10 men I’m going back to bed

Good night all

Get a taxi for Bruce now, so he’ll be gone by half time. Get Jimmy Morrison and Chris Brunt to take charge.

How many of this squad should be here next season .... TGH, Townsend, maybe O’Shea, maybe Button .... am struggling beyond that .... why Bruce has this love-in with Reach god only knows .... we need complete re-build ....

And I thought my Dad's team (Blues) had a bad day!! Only getting this on the radio but am seriously thinking of giving up and finding something entertaining to watch on Prime or Netflix instead to take my mind off it all

Should’ve gone with a hammering in the prediction league as I was going to put 4-0 or 4-1.

Got to be goodnight for Bruce.

What’s the betting that Cleary gets a 5 minute substitute appearance in the final match.

Managing by numbers, tired and formulaic, no forward thinking at all.

Managers like Bruce irk the s h I t out of me, they forget that a manager had to be brave enough to trust them at 17-18 but the rules change once they’ve had their career.

Pathetic.

F U C K OFF Potato Head.

The ref is really terrible, how the hell do these blokes get to ref football matches?

Livermore to see red shortly

I wish Gary Wind a ss would murder some of these c???? Embarrassing our shirt again.

What a a S**t season when the only highlight is direby going down.

What the feck was TGH thinking blasting it into the crowd
Bruce has zero control of these guys
Ish never did but thought he had control then said dumb stuff like the captain will always play and had no plan b

Plan B should be to bomb out all this shower of s hit.

Mowatt is a shadow of the player he was at the beginning of the season ....

Totally agree I thought the second coming had arrived but now wtf hopefully Billy Smart will be looking for new talent

As for Bartley .... another clown .... tries to play it out the back like he’s Pirlo .... get rid ASAP ...

The ref is appalling tonight ... completely ruined the game s a contest


3-0 appalling!

Is Delivermore the worst captain in our history???

He patted on the back the third goalscorer colback before he scored. Absolutely s hit at everything he does on yhe pitch.

He's not football ambassador he should be inspiring HIS OWN TEAMMATES in the ref ear trying to get anything in our favour.

Please get out of our c lub you old, slow, reckless fraud.

Can we call the game off now please

TGH is like a young stupid peaky blinder. Even looks like one. He was shocking with his temper v Arsenal in the cup running around with an angry red face but he is a good player. This is the trouble with youngsters. You seem to either be half soaked or hot headed. Its called youth, we've all been through it.
This is a gifted match to forest. I really wondered whether forest would even score tonight after the first 15 minutes, we were well in control but after the penalty, some stubborn refereeing (not doing what his linesman said) and a not meant (surely)worldly, the world is Forests oyster tonight. We started with exactly the right attitude. Bad day at the office. Had too many of them. Season over.

When we sacked VI he left along with his assistant.

Bruce came in 3 coaches and somehow with twice the staff we've got worse.

He already had Alex with him again, can anyone confirm if his wife is on our payroll too?

Talk about every fu cker taking advantage about the lack of leadership and football knowledge at the top.

That first half just about sums up this awful season. We give silly, unnecessary free kicks away, give away a penalty and get a player red carded, referee gives a ridiculous decision which leads to a goal and then they score a 'worldie' which was meant as a cross. Also, what the hell was TGH thinking of? As I say, sums it all up. For God's sake get Dyche in and quickly!

Why are we still playing a back 5.? Surely we play 2 banks of 4 with Carol up front.

What about the linesman? Both need to visit Specsavers for missing that throw in.

The linesman got it right, he flagged for an Albion throw in, the idiot ref overruled him, perhaps he’s on the Forest payroll?

PM

F unkind Luton, yes Luton who haven't been seen since Ricky Hill's cra pay perm was around are better than us and miles ahead. Made up of free transfers.

Grant's stupidly high fee could have bought the their squad and ground.

Someone, please blow the final whistle in these embarrassing t urds.

Yet Nathan Jones couldn’t get a tune out of Stoke when he was there.

The problem is that we are perceived as a fairly big club and as such you need to attract the right characters who can deal with the pressure.

Easy to play for a club like Luton or Barnsley.

We tried the Buckley/Grimsby experiment and look how that turned out.

We got it right for a period under Megson, Mowbray and Clarke and Hodgson.

Proper pro’s like Reid, Scharner, Brunt and Morrison in the late 2000’s......THIS is the template.

Good human beings, good pros, people with pride and ethics.

I’ve heard from a staff member within the club that our lot are a bunch of Jack The Lad a r s e holes who swan around like they own the place.

I can easily believe that. Delivernore wandering around with his chest out giving it the I'm an England player and Johnstone in shock thinking I am too.

My mate told me TGH has already bought a new merc with TGH number plate.

Way too much, too young, he'd still be cleaning the senior pros boots in the olden days.

The only thing I agreed with that Dowling did was change the entrance for youth and first team players.

I read somewhere that Kante, having won everything from the league Cup to the world cup, still drives a mini.

There is nobody to go on the pitch like God Megson who went on the pitch to ask "Albion fan" Lee Hughes what he was laughing and joking about with the opposition players who had just beaten us.


What would the score be without Matt Clarke?

It's all right Matt Phillips is on to start the fightback.

Forest have actually been pretty poor tonight and quite naive at times. Some of their passing has been woeful. We’ve really missed a trick tonight.

The ref continues to show his Forest bias and incompetence.

Bartley just standing watching again for that fourth.

Icing on the cake 4 frickin 0

Incompetent refereeing that went against us too often and a wonder strike that wasn't intended as such- but none of this can cloud just how shockingly sh ite the vast majority of our players are and how inept Bruce is increasingly appearing to be.

Just got in from Forest.

Still fuming mad, I can’t think of a more abject performance in recent years. Alex Mowatt you’re a coward who hides on a football pitch. So many times I’ve seen gaping holes where a bold player would drop into and ask for the ball, he just sits by an opposing player and watches. Do us a favour pal, take our shirt off and ask for a transfer request please.

I sat in the bar at Notts County’s ground having a pint and the team news broke, talk about not having a clue, Bruce what were you thinking?! You go to Forest with THAT starting line up? FFS! Your washed up Brucy like most of the team.

If any of you Albion players are reading this, when I coached a kids team I wanted to take them to watch my non league team Dudley Town as part of their development, I hoped they could hear how the players talked on the field, learn about honest endeavour and that hard graft and a bit of peeling paint watched by a handful of people is reality. Now I think it’s YOU LOT who need to go and watch Dudley, players who work their nuts off for their gaffer, train twice a week and don’t really get paid a great deal, plus go to work in between.

Even my Forest mate tonight messaged me to say “some of those Albion players ain’t trying” and our “midfield is terrible”.

I really don’t know where we go from here, people suggest this and that but if the circus going on at Blues is a glimpse into our future then I fear the worst.

I went to the game as we live near Nottingham and we took my son's girlfriend for the first time. She's only ever seen Man City play!! She asked hilariously naïve questions like, why don't they run forwards, why do they always pass sideways, etc.
She wasn't taking the piss just confused.
Bartley was pure ****e, like he was a couple of seasons ago when we all wanted him gone.
I've been saying give Bruce a chance to shape his own team in the Summer but I'm now doubting myself.
A very depressing evening. Roll on next season when we will be joint top of the league until the first match at least.

[Tricky]

Thanks for posting these Joe and its nice to have you back mate!!

They don't like Bruce much do they?

[Username]

Lots of fair comments, getting rid of Valerian when they did has improved nothing.

[Sniffer Dog (Admin)]

Thanks Joe.

[zicorice]

Looks like they hate Livermore even more than we do!!
