Opposition comments: Forest v Burnley

HBB says: I could only find one forum for Gurnley so used a lot of in-game comments. Post match it's all the usual wailing and gnashing of teeth that passes for football "debate" for so many fans that (sad face) the officials are corrupt, the world is against them and its all biased. I'll add comments as I find them

Forest are by far the weakest of the PL games we've played this season, so I think we're going to look much better tonight.

Ref completely affected by the crowd. What a pathetic homer.

We are hanging by a thread at the back. Cut up so easily.

What the **** are we playing at at the moment

Forest movement so much better than us

25 mins gone and we’ve been pretty pants. Only a matter of time if we carry on like this.

Koleosho is too quick for the rest of our team

52% possession for the good guys. Lots of fouls piling up for the bad guys.

Get in!!!!!

This argentinian must be the worst to play in the prem. He has been murdered.

We're not keeping a clean sheet this game, need a bit of steel in the middle

We look good upfront but midfield and defence both under the cosh too much for my liking

What a goal. No complaints there.

Good finish to be fair. This is what we're up against this year

Unfortunately, the crowd has come alive. They've made good subs. I'd take a point, if I could.

(Berge) It's never handball...

That’s harsh but expected at this level. Theirs was more of a handball than ours.

Hilarious to see those claiming it's all a conspiracy in favour of the big teams like [Checks Notes] Nottingham Forest

Erm we’re playing Forest, one of the few clubs in the league less glamorous than us.

7 mins added on? From where?

We need a justice moment

Thought the handball decision against Berge was wrong, but no complaints with the red card. You just can't do that

Agent Wood consistently offside - good lad

1-1 FT

Good point. Feels like a loss.

Robbed in my opinion. Nothing wrong with Foster's goal

We have played well against a Forest side who've just beaten Chelsea

I’m all for a good conspiracy theory but there was no evidence it even hit Awoniyis hand/arm.

Lots of positives to take from the game. Much more like it against the teams we will be fighting against. Should have won it.

Better team over 90 minutes. Could have conceded more against better opposition

I'd love to see an opposition manager come out and publically criticise VAR when decisions go their way - why can't Cooper come out and say "We got away with one today, VAR was shocking and needs looking at". Me thinks they're too happy the results go their way and don't care for the future of the game.

We gave Forest a run for their money and as Vinny said we will get better as we build up confidence..

I am seething that incompetence has stolen 2 points off us, and the forest forum agrees with me. (HBB says: must have been reading another Forum)

No where on God's earth is less glamorous than Burnley or their team.
Really it's true.

This argentinian must be the worst to play in the prem. He has been murdered - yep, he didn't look great.

(Berge) It's never handball... - it definitely was.

Erm we’re playing Forest, one of the few clubs in the league less glamorous than us - clearly never left Burnley.

Least glamorous clubs than us; Luton, Burnley, S. United, Bournemouth (although Monkey World is decent), Wolves, Fulham, Palace, Everton....the rest of the league...then us on top.

To end any doubt:
1 the video footage shows conclusively Berge used his hand to push the ball past McKenna, and he was fortunate not to be yellow carded;
2 the video footage proved conclusively no-one was offside for CHO's excellent goal;
3 the video footage shows conclusively there was no handball by Taiwo before CHO's excellent goal;
4 the video footage shows conclusively that their player deliberately elbows Yates in the face, and it was as clear a case of violent conuct as you will see.
I don't like burnley, or their fans, or their kit... i hope they go straight back down.

I don’t get the no handball stuff. A few neutrals saying it too.

What more would he have to do for it to be handball? He literally uses his arm to change the direction of the ball and bring it under control.

They’re coping so hard “it hit his sleeve” in the replay you can see his bicep moving because it gets hit by the ball.

Jesus wept how can you be so blind

That comment hit me really personally lmao.
Less glamourous.. than BURNLEY
I think if anything it goes to show that 1 season out of the top flight isn't enough to rid supporters of the Premier league entitlement/snobbery!

I guess because we came up as they went down they still somehow see us as lower calibre than them or that because the media has and does describes big Vincent as the second coming of Pep they somehow get confused with their home shirts having similair colours to Barca if you squint really really hard.

I'm genuinely insulted by the comment that we are less glamorous than Burnley.

They also nicked the ‘no one likes us chant’

False, apart from Alistair Campbell (was in their end last night ). I’d say nearly the whole pyramid is completely indifferent to Burnley. I’d go as far as to say 95% of people can’t even point to Burnley on a map.
