Forest have taken their foot off the gas this half. They have stopped pressing.

Your probably right, TT.
But on better news for the Original Entitled Ones, there's chat going around that the Council have mended their roof. 8-)

We have been looking for an adequate replacement for 3.5 years now... Let's hope Broja can be that man.
There were plenty on here complaining about him when we had him.

In his last season, rightly so. He was a great player for us but his form that season cost us dearly.

I don’t get how that isn’t a foul on the keeper?
If we had done that to United it 100% would have been a free kick.

VAR Destroying football one goal at a time!

Wrestling waiting for dead balls into the box - no foul - whereas lean into an opponent goal disallowed.

No surprise that Darren England didn't have the balls to stand up to the Stockley Park pillock.
It was explained why it wasn't allowed, so I don't think you can blame anyone if the Crystal Palace player broke the rules by being too close to the wall.

If anything, the rules might need changing, not the fact that the referee correctly applied the laws of the game.

It's been nice to have a ref not blow for every bit of contact, the game has benefited hugely from it

Ha ha, thought the same. I know it's the first time I've seen him at this level but he looks nowhere near. His touch and clumsy movement does not give you the impression he's going to be a star. Which is nice. As I hope Arsenal win nothing again this season.

There was a coning together of an Mu and Arsenal player just now, in the pen area. Arsenal player only got the back of the MU players legs/feet.

No pen given. Pundits argued accordingly.

I remember when we were being tonked by MCity and the ball was cleared, everyone was playing, as no one thought anything had happened. VAR stop game and award pen as when the two feet kicked the ball defender/attacker the alow mo showed the Burnley defenders foot had touched the attackers foot milliseconds before touching the ball.

Everyone astonished/embarrassed.

Awful interpretation. Today was much better.

Near the end of the Man U Arsenal game Man U after spending about a quarter of a billion on strikers played Harry Maguire up front! Is that worth a discussion with Sir Jim?

Chris Woods release clause was activated by Eddie the Snake to secure Newcastles safety
Some fool at Burnley signed non scorer Wout as Woods replacement

Yes belatedly I saw the explanation, I'd turned over to the Forest game as soon as it was disallowed. I admit I wasn't aware of the 1 meter rule now in place.
