Notts Forest v Spurs

A game that concerns us

Forest have a great home footballing following. Spurs on form can beat them

How's it going to go?

A Forest win will be a big blow.

Hopefully Spurs can work it out

That Forest side looks no better than ours

ElectroClaret · Post by **ElectroClaret** » Fri Dec 15, 2023 7:36 pm

Forest 0 Spurs 2

Elizabeth · Post by **Elizabeth** » Fri Dec 15, 2023 7:55 pm

I think the crowd will get so much behind Forest that lt will make them favourites
2-1 to Forest I fear

Early chance to Son

Forest fans booing Johnson, obviously they have very short memories. Was a superb player for them.

Conroysleftfoot · Post by **Conroysleftfoot** » Fri Dec 15, 2023 8:34 pm

I thought this would be an easy win for Spurs tonight but they look very vulnerable when Forest break.

Yates has spent the first 40 or so minutes cheating and getting away with it.

I'm watching Larne vs Crusaders. Not very high quality, but I always enjoy Irish commentary.

and then waves an imaginary card to get Odogie booked - pretty sure that's supposed to be an automatic yellow but as you say, he's getting away with everything

waving the imaginary yellow card is almost as cowardly as spitting.

for shame.

Great cross.
Spurs do score some good 'uns.

1-1

VAR check....offside.

Buxtonclaret · Post by **Buxtonclaret** » Fri Dec 15, 2023 9:19 pm

Looked offside.
Any one of 3!!

Bordeauxclaret · Post by **Bordeauxclaret** » Fri Dec 15, 2023 9:19 pm

Unlucky there Forest. Only four of them offside.

ElectroClaret · Post by **ElectroClaret** » Fri Dec 15, 2023 9:20 pm

Miles off.

VAR to the rescue .Karma

Great finish for Spurs second

ElectroClaret · Post by **ElectroClaret** » Fri Dec 15, 2023 9:25 pm

Two for Spurs

Vegas Claret · Post by **Vegas Claret** » Fri Dec 15, 2023 9:26 pm

this will be the end of Cooper I reckon

Vegas Claret · Post by **Vegas Claret** » Fri Dec 15, 2023 9:27 pm

PL keeper shouldn't be conceding that

ecc · Post by **ecc** » Fri Dec 15, 2023 9:27 pm

Get in!

bfcjg · Post by **bfcjg** » Fri Dec 15, 2023 9:28 pm

Will they sack Cooper " just like that? "

FCBurnley · Post by **FCBurnley** » Fri Dec 15, 2023 9:28 pm

We would crucify Trafford if he let that one in

Some would crucify him if he'd kept it out.

Commy · Post by **Commy** » Fri Dec 15, 2023 9:31 pm

That looked very soft compared to a couple that got away with it last weekend.

Buxtonclaret · Post by **Buxtonclaret** » Fri Dec 15, 2023 9:31 pm

Was a bad challenge that.

Chance for Forest now

That’s because Michael Oliver is an absolute disaster on VAR.

I assume that they were watching a replay that we couldn't see, it was bizarre how that decision took so long when it was so blindingly obvious.

I’m not saying it’s not a red in today’s game. It just shouldn’t be a red card in my opinion.

California Colner · Post by **California Colner** » Fri Dec 15, 2023 10:13 pm

Red card every time
High challenge across the knee
Nobody can complain with that red card

So you're not denying it's a red, but it shouldn't be a red.
Not too sure how that works...

I imagine Forests Premier League record with and without Awoniyi since promotion shows a stark contrast.

‘In the nine Premier League games in which Taiwo Awoniyi has not started for Nottingham Forest this season, they have won none (D3 L6), with 11 of their 14 points this season coming when he has been in the starting XI, including all three of their wins.’

Westleigh · Post by **Westleigh** » Fri Dec 15, 2023 10:33 pm

If we can win on Saturday it would really drag Forest into the mix.

Goliath · Post by **Goliath** » Fri Dec 15, 2023 10:34 pm

Yep, they dont really have a replacement, looks like Origis not up to it. Wood was struggling 3 years ago and has now been dropped for an attacking midfield player, so i think its fair to presume hes not offering much.

It looks like his fitness could play a pretty important role in our survival. We only really have a sniff of staying up because he got injured

Swizzlestick · Post by **Swizzlestick** » Fri Dec 15, 2023 10:38 pm

Looks like the goalkeeper position is a real issue at Forest, too. They’re getting dragged in if we can pull ourselves together a bit.
