The Mood

[enlightened]

Mood update - can't muster up any interest until I know what the points deduction is or isn't going to be. Season is in limbo as far as I am concerned and I hate those EFL f***ers for making it so.

 

[Captain Sinister]

I haven‘t seen any lack of effort,Captain.
Whether we’re really up to this level of football is an entirely different matter…….

The effort is still there, but last night and last weekend the sparkle was lacking.
Several players heads were down well before Casimiero’s coup-de-grace.

Thank you: that is a perfect summary as to how I feel.
And I think the players are showing signs they feel the same way.

The way the commentators kept going on about the little boo-boo on his bonce that appeared even though he didn't make contact with anyone, I think coup de tête would be more appropriate than coup de grace.

(And yes, tête as a deliberate play on words instead of état, for anyone thinking I'm an idiot)

Gary: I need a large glass of whatever it is you are on.
Today I am in full-on doom -monger wrist slashing mood.
The cup run was the one ray of light in our season, and now those vile Mancunians have smashed the torch shining that ray of light.
Compared to me, Marvin is a real barrel of laughs this morning.

Was it having to pay the extortionate ticket prices wot dun it ?

Was it having to pay the extortionate ticket prices wot dun it ?

It didn't help.
And of course, being surrounded by day trippers who couldn't sit for 45 minutes in their seats before needing to go to the toilet, or the bar didn't help.
And of course the morons who hadn't been to the ground before and didn't understand that different staircases served different ends of the rows so I had to be up and down like a whore's drawersto let the twats in.
and then of course there was the nast Manc louts, roving up and down Radcliffe road, trying to cause trouble.
And the ref and the Linesman in front of us, and the VAR ref, and the fact that elite footballers cannot shoot on target, and elite footballers can't defend a set piece...
Shall i go on?

P.S.: thank the deities we haven't got to face Liverpool in Round 6... what would the ticket prices be for that one, for an OAP and his eye-candy young wife?

Feeling a bit sad about the football. After last season's effort to stay up, this season seems, for several reasons, to have dribbled away.

But all is not finished. We still have games to go and anything is still possible. Where there's life, there's hope.

The only teams around us we are probaly better than don't have a points deduction hanging over their heads.
Being brutally honest, the third relegation spot is between Forest, Luton and Everton.
And Luton have a big advantage in that they won't be losing any points come April 15th.

Just what is THAT on your toast?

 

[Strummer]

Just what is THAT on your toast?

That is a heathy dollop of melting local butter, from the nearby farm-shop (or the German equivalent thereof).

I like proper butter (not in a, Marlon Brando way, that is) on my toast. And I like a lot of it.

Are you sure your visit didn't follow a recent visit by the A.I. man (and i don't mean in an Artificial Intelligence sort of a way )

Oh yes, with some smokey bacon crisps.

Today was the toughest day of the season for me, even worst than Fulham away. I'm still simmering but earlier it was prolonged fury and i don't think it was just todays incident. Its that incident on top of the backdrop of many many incidents throughout this hateful season where i feel that VAR, PGMOL, having a PSR court date lingering over our heads since the first week of January with a pretty much guarantee of x amount of points deduction to come, set pieces, individual cock ups, goalkeepers, news of moving from the WFCG and in general the football gods have all conspired to make this the most excruciating experience possible for every Forest fan.

Its really really hard to enjoy any of this, yet we can't turn away because as we saw in the Arsenal game last May, it really is worth all of the agony in the months leading up to it.

And yet for the first time this season i'm hopeful of a completely united fanbase for the run in, us against every f**cker, has just been ignited. Even more so than last season. The noise hasn't been the same this year, the tifos, the victories. But i've a feeling the tide is turning now out of pure and utter contempt for this league.

I predict that the Big Man will be grilled in the upcoming days as the Sky 6 get their media bandwagons to circle and condemn us for outrageous behaviour instead of focusing on just how f**ked over we've been this season. But the torch paper has been lit, us against every f***er in this league.

TL;DR - the mood is slightly raving mad

I think our mood has to downcast. Whatever the errors by refs and whatnot may be, we MUST stop making stupid f***ing mistakes. That game should have been a point, and a morale boost. Instead it's a crushing loss and CHO (who played well) and Awoniyi let down their teammates today in the last minute by failing to just hoof the ball out. We now need to win, imho, 3 of the 4 games away vs Luton. SheffieldU, Burnley and Everton.

I mean we’re beating all of them anyway

I remember talking to a very good friend of mine some years ago who's a Boro fan who said his ideal season would be a good finish in the league (Championship) maybe the play offs but Premier League, keep it. It's a closed shop anyway. I think we're beginning to see he's right. To a certain degree I think let them ban relegation and just sail off into the sunset with the same teams winning year in year out. I do think it's more than coincidence that we appear to be shafted one way or another week after week. And putting bias aside even the likes of Shearer and Lineker can see it now. Forget JJ because he's a Red. Apart from that freak Leicester season a team outside the "big six" won't win it again for a while unless they change the rules which they won't. Rant over and back to me cuppa

 

[Alf-engelos Mindminackers]

I'm already over yesterday tbh. That's exactly the type of shit big clubs at the top of the league get against smaller clubs fighting relegation, and it's not those games which will define our season.

Also, I actually feel very positive that Sels is showing himself to be a big upgrade on our other keepers; he had a great game yesterday and will count for a lot against the lesser teams we play. Genuinely think if he'd have been here start of the season we'd have another 6-10 pts in the bag.

 

[adam09]

We’ve got Man United, Arsenal and Liverpool coming to Nottingham and pulling out all the tricks to scrape 1 goal victories against us.

Just frustrating we haven’t helped ourselves with mistakes we can control, we should on about 30 points really.

Enjoying watching some of the stuff and players we have now. It would be sad if we can’t continue to grow the young core of a team.
