[MC Plantpot]

If it helps @MC Plantpot I asked ChatGPT to write an uplifting rap about you and NFFC and this is what it came up with:

(Verse 1)
Yo, gather 'round, let me spin a tale so neat,
'Bout MC Plantpot, sproutin' beats to the beat.
From the Forest of Nottingham, where dreams take flight,
He grew with roots of rhythm, pure dynamite.

Representin' the green, just like the Forest's crest,
Plantin' rhymes so fresh, puttin' doubts to rest.
In this concrete jungle, he's a flourishing vine,
With lyrics so fertile, they blossom and shine.

(Chorus)
MC Plantpot, in the spotlight's glow,
Nottingham Forest, where legends grow.
Roots deep in music, branches to the sky,
His rap game's fire, reaching oh so high.

(Verse 2)
In the heart of the city, where the legends play,
MC Plantpot's rhymes bloom day by day.
Like Forest's history, rich with glory untold,
His verses unfold, a story to behold.

From the Trent's flowing waters to the mic he grips tight,
Spittin' words of hope, pure delight in the night.
In Sherwood's spirit, he finds his strength and flair,
Craftin' verses so tight, makin' haters beware.

(Chorus)
MC Plantpot, in the spotlight's glow,
Nottingham Forest, where legends grow.
Roots deep in music, branches to the sky,
His rap game's fire, reaching oh so high.

(Bridge)
In the land of Robin Hood, he's the lyrical king,
With beats that make your soul dance and sing.
From the City Ground to every corner street,
MC Plantpot's rhymes, a poetic feat.

(Outro)
So here's to the Forest and MC Plantpot's might,
In this rap game, they both shine so bright.
Wherever they roam, whatever the quest,
Nottingham's spirit, in them, will forever invest.

Thank you very much, Col !!

If the PGMOL have any professional integrity we shouldn’t even need to appeal, they’ll take upon themselves to act.

News item from 25 December 2023 -

'Nottingham Forest's appeal to have Will Boly's second yellow card (and subsequent sending off) against Bournemouth has been rejected and Boly's ban increased from 1 game to 7 due to a frivolous appeal. The panel was unable to find sufficient evidence that Forest are Liverpool.'

One of the best games I have been to was 3-2 against Southampton, but it wasn't that game.

It was this. At Wembley too.

That was a good game.

It was also the one where that thug Hurlock said he was going to take out Pearce, and true to his word the dirty bastard did. I remember the "tackle" which did Pearce's knee ligaments resulting in him missing the league cup final the following week.

 

[Rockabilly]

If it was a goal that VAR was checking for offside they would have found an angle, to the nearest millimeter!

Indeed they would.

I don't think you can appeal yellow cards, only straight reds.

Ruddock, Hurlock and Dowie in the same team! Though they did have Shearer and Le Tissier to offset. Think it was that season that Saints beat Forest 1-3 at home. Have vague recollection of Shearer scoring. May have the wrong year.

Your first word is the flaw here.

This is true. Amazing how so many think you can.

 

[Huxley]

I don't remember that. When was it? I do remember Peterborough and the Simod Cup.

A little palate cleanser after the farce of yesterday…

You can't appeal yellows.

 

[GOBIAS]

I think it’s just the fact it is so ludicrous that you can’t. Obviously appealing a yellow for something and nothing is one thing but appealing one that lead to an unjust red that has affected a game already and leads to a player missing another game they don’t deserve. It potentially could lead to further punishment down the line as well as if he gets sent off again doesn’t he get further punishment depending on his previous red car record?

Just watched the bits I missed yesterday - what a f***ing joke of a refereeing performance. Set the tone early with the Williams 'foul'. Twat.

Tough on the lads who dug in well when they went down. Though Bournemouth moved the ball well and the difference was (sending off aside) their focal point is fit and their tails are high.

Decent start from Nuno all things considered.

We were actually very positive with 10 men even at 2-2 we had them rattled. If anything had we been a little more cautious and put more men behind the ball and sat deeper we may have got a draw.

We dug in really well I do feel the difference as well was our inability to mark defenders - we have done this all season we mark space not men and don't follow players when they move. This is a simple coaching a hangover from the Cooper regime. Or is it players not listening to coaching. Its impossible to know which it is.

We were very unlucky - the sending off meant the crowd really got behind the team more so. A tough one to take.

Defensively I think it's just as much the CBs are suffering from a lack of confidence in their keeper alongside the unsettled back line. We'll get that right, though probably not in this quick turnaround...

Post Jan break will be interesting times.

 

[ARedChester]

Rob Jones also cost us at Man United by giving Rashford that dodgy penalty , the guy is either bent or just not up to the job

I wonder if a club could "ban" an official. Inform the official bodies that he has been banned from all club establishments, but it has to be based on several poor performances. Jones would be a good candidate.

Was it a Turkish owner took his team off the pitch??

Webb and the other fools need to wake up before someone does take actions more extreme.

I do think if Navas is in goal the organisation skills he would bring would make them feel a lot more confident.

 

[Rubics]

Just seen that Chris wilder is doing his nut about the blunts team being leaked on the morning of games - vowing to clamp down on who knows it etc
Didn‘t see our team anywhere online ahead of the game yesterday, did anyone else?

No doubt a goalkeeper of Navas' quality and experience improves things.

 

[oxonred]

Watching the goals again, Turner should never be put in our goal again. He is totally incompetent for the EPL, the two headed goals he should have put over the bar, but he tends to crouch too much, which restricts the height he can achieve. Too many times he’s screwed up in my opinion. New EPL competent keeper required January.

 

[adam09]

Think that's a bit harsh, both headers were looped over/far corner.

Didn't we score one of those not long ago at the Trent End?

I don't think many keepers save those unless they are really tall. Turner is 6'3 as well.

 

[Malwood]

It's worrying that all of the bottom three gained ground on us yesterday.
This January transfer window is going to be huge. We don't need loads of players, but the ones we get need to be ones who will improve the starting 11. We need quality not quantity. If we fail in this, we're going down.

I don't think it's going to be very easy to sign players who are guaranteed to be better than what we've got.

I can't see anyone with proven quality wanting to join us.

No. Interesting…
