I think winter mentioned this somewhere on the board, but want to reiterate how good Michael Oliver was today, he was strong, and didn’t fall for the theatrics of Romero and co, and was fair and even handed throughout. It was nice to see a good exhibition of refereeing for a change.

I've enjoyed reading your post-game thoughts tonight Reds. Unless I've missed it, I'm also looking forward to reading the match analysis by Chim - the new Creepy!
There is something that I picked up on that I haven't read so far though. Passion. That trait, combined with controlled-aggression in our midfield, I think allowed us to control the show and psyche Spurs out.
Do you remember Sangare and Anderson in a close huddle against two Spurs players with everyone fighting hard to get the ball? Sangare and Anderson were almost tackling each other to keep Forest in possession. I haven't seen passion like that for a while from a Forest team.
Keep this up and we'll be OK.

Athletico are beating Real, Spurs beat Athletico. Bag the Europa League and the skies the limit. 🤣🌳
22 Mar 2026 21:34:29
Can I retract that statement? 🤣🌳

Great result on top of West Ham defeat. Milenkovic superb, Sels and Williams top draw and three cracking goals. The team spirit from all players was very good. Tactics, substitutions, thanks to Vitors impressive imput and psychology.
I stated a couple of weeks back that he as got alot to offer and once he as confirmed our prem status, Big M should give him a new contract. Continuity and stability for next season is something we are crying out for after this season. U REDS.

Quite a special weekend that. Wow! A walk on Bridlington beach, pint in Spoons, great non league game including pie peas and pint for £15. A great walk on the moors this morning and then rhe main event. Reasons to be very cheerful. Sels brilliant. Milenkovic superb. Back four solid. Tactics spot on.
Subs at correct time, MGW scores against that lot. My mate Jesus finds himself unmarked and actually scores. We Finally have someone who can take a corner and Taiwo smiles for all the right reasons. I'm in such a good mood, I've promised the Mrs the best 30 seconds of her life tonight. If I stay sober. Cheers.

Looks like we'll end up with 3 good strikers to see the season out, Jesus, Awoniyi and Wood.
Jesus has been overused by us, to be fair to him, through injuries to others.
Personally think hes a bargain at £10 million.
Awoniyi looks a player again, and Wood is in the Europa squad.
Got a feeling this season will end in Champions League qualification.
Gazzi, been a great weekend, pal.
Like I say, never give up on a good thing.
Forest are worth it.
22 Mar 2026 20:01:53
Jesus will be better next season. It takes a long time for most players to adapt. Thierry Henry took a year to really get going. F***! People are so impatient.
22 Mar 2026 20:07:02
Agree, Cyclist, he's a goalscorer, poacher.
All about the delivery.
He's scored double figures anyway.
22 Mar 2026 20:08:16
Great post, Gaz. You're obviously a bit of a stud to get past the frustrated older-man 20 second barrier!
22 Mar 2026 20:38:42
Nice one Gazz, it's been a great weekend. 👍🌳
22 Mar 2026 21:20:45
Just watched Romero's interview after we thrashed them... showing off his Rolex??? It says all you need to know about their character.

“From this nettle, danger
We pluck this flower, safety”
Or, for you non Shakespeareans….
“E I E I O
Up the Football League we go”
A superb performance after riding our luck first half with the woodwork twice, perfect timing for Jesus’s goal, then took charge second half.
My fears of tiredness were unfounded (I’m glad to admit), in fact we got stronger as the game went on.
Sels was superb, the back 4 and general defensive shape organized and solid, high workrate throughout by all the players including the subs and the squad obviously want to play for VP.
I’m particularly pleased for Taiwo putting the game to bed late on.
Still a way to go but a big step forward….
22 Mar 2026 20:11:03
Six or seven points to go, would you say, Stokey?
No club gets relegated with forty points?
22 Mar 2026 20:15:22
Agree with you as usual, Stokey. A good post, slightly marred by your intro where you have obviously been sniffing the turps too much again.
No, seriously, a great performance and a superb result. Honestly, I still don't know enough about VP to make an opinion, but, fair do's, he got things right tonight.
Happy Legolas.
22 Mar 2026 20:27:23
Stokey, we can all remember recent games where we deserved more, but as it happens in life, luck seems against you sometimes. However, it balances out in time. Spurs had no luck today, thank goodness. Delighted for both Jesus and Tiawo, but all the team put in a shift. Pleased also for all the away fans who you have heard cheering our team on through good and bad times.
VP looked happy today, and I was glad to see his success. Michael Oliver was a very good referee today. I have no doubt there will be further twists to this season, but I agree with VP, the team are together atm. M.
22 Mar 2026 20:52:44
The last sentence nails it, Nuno.
We are together for all to see.
22 Mar 2026 20:56:44
If we can stay unbeaten throughout April, it will be season-defining. On paper, the league games look winnable, and getting past Porto will line us up for a winner-takes-all semi against Villa. 🌳
22 Mar 2026 21:05:43
I know you can't read this winter, but we'll beat Porto easily. 😁
22 Mar 2026 21:10:05
Yeah I'm blind. 🙈🤣🌳
22 Mar 2026 21:15:10
Kidding, winter.
Remember the blocker? 😁
22 Mar 2026 21:33:30
You're a strange man. 🤣🌳
22 Mar 2026 22:23:29
Nice banter that. Ff and Robin.
How it should be.
22 Mar 2026 23:18:01
Probably derived from all of your self-gratification whilst sucking on a pasty Winter. Naughty boy.
22 Mar 2026 18:32:57
BBC website player ratings put MGW above Anderson.... Come on!!...
22 Mar 2026 19:15:02
Malenkovic was head and shoulders our best player today, in my opinion, but everyone played their part.
22 Mar 2026 20:33:39
The trinity of the tree should all get 9 plus. 🌳
22 Mar 2026 20:42:50
All the defence for me. MGW, for most of the match, fell short; he scored but could have come off after 60 minutes. Great team performance. My mate's a Villa fan, I thanked him for today, but pointed out we will beat them next time out. Don't let me down. 👇👇 🤡🤡🤡
22 Mar 2026 18:29:38
Two great results in 4 days. Doesn't everything feel a lot better. Long may it continue COYR.
22 Mar 2026 18:26:43
So City get another trophy.
Perfect timing for the Premier League to deal with them?
22 Mar 2026 17:40:26
I kept thinking we would concede a late goal for a nervy finish but wow, Awonyi is looking like he's back to proper fitness and finished beautifully. Dare we hope to get Woods back for Villa but on that performance Awonyi and Jesus deserve to keep their spots. What a result and makes the International break a bit more enjoyable!
