Forest v Sheff United

[Quicknick]

Bit of a disappointing result in the end.

Why? Sheff U have zero points.

[ksrclaret]

UTC meltdown cos Hamer has bagged 1 goal against Nott’m Forest

If that's what you call a meltdown even just popping to the shop must be a rollercoaster of emotion for you.

Football stats are great aren't they?
That Aurier bloke has only ever had 2 assists in one other game in his career (approx 400 games over 12 years), and that was also against Sheffield United.

It's so unlikely, and yet.

[Spijed]

Why? Sheff U have zero points.

But Forest have three.

Would have been far better for both teams to have one point after two matches than one of our rivals to have three.

[Bowclaret]

Hamer will get smashed in the prem. So glad we did not get him. He’s a decent Championship player at best. Berge is class and we have another special player

[Quicknick]

But Forest have three.

Would have been far better for both teams to have one point after two matches than one of our rivals to have three.

BHA and Fulham will be our rivals.

[Swizzlestick]

BHA and Fulham will be our rivals.

Brighton? really? I think that’s somewhat optimistic.

[Jakubclaret]

Predictable result with forest just edging it with home advantage & slightly more top flight experience & better quality of players, both will be in & around the mix but like this result forest look likely to have just enough if you had to pick between the 2 in any crunch decider.

[nil_desperandum]

BHA and Fulham will be our rivals.

BHA likely to challenge for Europe again. Is that what you meant by rivals?
(Think Fulham will be a bit short of that but should do ok)

[Vegas Claret]

harsh on Sheff Utd, better side for a good chunk of that game

You'll have to explain when fairness comes into it in this league, you don't take your chances when presented it matters little despite possession or any other stats, the PL isn't considered 1 if not the best league in Europe for no reason. Pardon the pun a lack of sharpness in the final third will blunt any blade.

[mybloodisclaret]

I think Sheff U were the better of the teams. I also think we would beat both of them. So that's nice.

[BleedingClaret]

If that's what you call a meltdown even just popping to the shop must be a rollercoaster of emotion for you.

I should have said CUE the meltdown

[BleedingClaret]

And the way he played last season has got nothing to do with it

Completely different challenge for him this year, as it is for our last years new players and our summer signings but a goal against Forest doesn’t mean we’ve missed a gem

[Carlos the Great]

Hamer at 15m looks great player ..When Sheffield United get relegated he probably move for 30 m

[Quicknick]

BHA likely to challenge for Europe again. Is that what you meant by rivals?
(Think Fulham will be a bit short of that but should do ok)

Yes.

[Guller Bull]

Absolute nonsense on Alan Pace's part not to push £20 mill in to the soft gloves of Coventry for Hamer.

Instead we are wasting time on nobodys like Maatsen, Tella et al. Hamer is pure quality and would have got us CL place on his own. It's obvious to any blind man on a galloping frog that this young lad is Premiership ready.

It really beggars belief and Mr Pace and Vinnie needs to give their heads a wobble. I don't know what is going on at our club!!!!???


(That kind of thing you mean?)

[boatshed bill]

But Forest have three.

Would have been far better for both teams to have one point after two matches than one of our rivals to have three.

The only results that (should) matter to us are our own.
And we have 19 rivals, you can't expect or hope for them all to draw every game

[bobinho]

Wood was/is really underated by Burnley fans

Not really.

He’s remembered fondly by some, and with disdain by others, and rightly so imho. I’m firmly entrenched in both camps.

Did a decent job for us for quite some time, but then got bored, lost interest and ended up “stealing” a wage.

Scored a good goal last night, reminiscent of his early time with us. I just hope his time at forest is more reminiscent of his final 6-9 months with us. That’ll be one less team to worry about come the end of the season.

Was it a choice by Forest not to have a shirt sponsor?

Forest announced their gambling shirt sponsor ahead of tonight’s game:
