Nottingham Forest Our Support Is Brilliant.

[zicorice]

Huge crowd tonight but our support was bloody pathetic IMO.

It's a two way street though isn't it? As soon as the team sheet came out, followed by a disjointed performance, it was to be expected, would be the same anywhere. If the manager shows he isn't taking the fixture seriously the crowd will naturally follow.

[Paplane]

A lot of people put in a big effort to get there last night. Freezing cold night, all the traffic issues and yet stil 28k fans turn up. Then they look at the team sheet. Its no wonder it was flat.

[Salvatore Matrecano]

Yet I was quite excited when I saw the teamsheet, was looking forward to how the new players would do, see Tyler up front, some genuine pace with Diakhaby.
Agree the performance from those who came in was unacceptable but the crowd turned too quickly IMO and as bad as it was booing a team off that remains 5th in the league with 2 defeats in 10 is ridiculous.

Didnt hear much booing at HT, but it was a particularly low standard. Do agree the atmosphere doesn't tend to be great at home when we're losing or not playing well.

Understandable and similar elsewhere but nevertheless not going to help the team

Very lively on here this morning.
No one takes - I hope - any of the less than positive comments as any more than reasonable debate.
We are all somewhat emotional after last nights game ( some - inc me - more than others ) but we all pay our money at the turnstiles & invest both our hard earned cash & ( more relevantly ) our absolute devotion to this great ( well we have been in the not too distant past ) football club.
We are all desperate for a return to the promised land - and last night suggested that this may not be happening quite as soon as we all crave.
Whatever happens. Whoever - eventually - takes us back there. Whenever that may be ( though some of us have got less time than others ). We bleed garibaldi red.

Largely interesting and healthy debate I'd say. It's difficult but we need to stay more grounded as we'll lose lots of games from now but so will everyone else. Only 3 of the 12-15 teams still in contention will go up, odds are still not in our favour yet. Just need to try and enjoy being in contention for a change.

Easier to stay grounded if we played well but were beaten by a good outfit.

Charlton only looked half decent because of us. We threw the game.

Not denying that I just accept that's where we are. Also the conditions were worse than given credit for last night. Clearly affected the game

[Derby My Arse]

Less than 500 tickets left for QPR. Brilliant support once again.

[Alf Garnett]

Anyone have any idea how many sell outs we have had at home this season? Must be a record surely.

[Paplane]

Its just a shame to see the home seats full and a bank of away seats empty.

 They need to be better at selling more of LB when it's a feeble away support. Why not give 800 tickets to away fans and release them in 200ish blocks after-if they need them. Then in final week open up to home fans, shifting the partition across a bit? 

Also, was hoping more clarity for Peter Taylor  stand next season. Could A and B block not just be given the current away section of LB. The atmosphere would be great. That stupid partitioning is over the top for most games anyway these days.
