As usual, can't really add to the brilliant and perceptive posts on here. I'll watch it again on Sky but it went largely as I thought it would. I said, pre match, a tight game between 2 evenly matched teams and so it proved. I also said Palace are in a false league position.
In the end the crucial difference was that Sels was brilliant and Hendersons mistake.
Anderson was brilliant in the attacking midfielder role. If that dribble had gone in it would have been goal of the season ( perhaps not as it was a Forest goal not Man City, Liverpool or Arsenal, the media darlings. I can't pay more praise to Anderson than say his efforts meant we didn't miss MGW. Man of the Match for me. I've read this morning that Carsley was watching the game so the lad hasn't done his England call up chances any harm at all with that performance
The crowd kept patient and didn't start going quiet or panicking when it was still nil nil. And Carlo, mate, your wish was granted. The Premier League Anthem was vociferously booed. ??
I tell you what, Jota is a bundle of energy and needs a start. Milenkovic composed, strong and effective against a very good Palace forward line, Yates, well, he's just Yates isn't he? Unlucky not to score but I'm suffering from a bad cold so I wouldn't have been in the Trent last night ????.
Elanga and CHO weren't very effective but they were mostly double marked ( and ruthlessly chopped down when they did escape).
As for our old friend "Plankov". Well that's 5 of our 8 goals down to him. He could have had 2 or 3 but for some bad luck. He has a very very quick football brain and his anticipation ( particularly in the box) is extraordinary.
So, onward to Leicester. I hope we GIVE SC a big big round of applause and TAKE AWAY 3 points. ????.

Anderson is a far better player than MGW, Stokie. More skill and a better end product. Premier league bargain of the season. As for Cooper, why clap him. He the manager of our local enemies who hate us. Boo him and set up an tense derby environment. They will crack under that kind of pressure ?.

I, d like to see the official NFSC make some comments on the treatment our club seem to be getting.
CARLO.

I’d never contemplate booing SC mate, whoever he manages. I’ll never forget what he’s done for us. He’ll always be a legend in my eyes mate. A thoroughly decent human being too by all accounts. I’m sure he will go far and I wish him all the best ( but I still want at least a point on Friday. )

I don't think we should booooo the man maybe give him some fist pumps back when we win at fester and he loses his job ?. how about Stokey some fans giving nuno the respect he deserves for how well he's doing in his job maybe the home fans should think about that and get behind him more in games me I don't personally care about any manager there their to do a job that's what they get paid thousands of pounds a week for get the results trophies and do it like Mr Clough and then maybe I will care not one championship title ??.

Hang on Skegs mate, I’m just taking your feet out of my throat……. ??.

Can’t we respect both managers simultaneously, SC for what he has done and Nuno for what he is doing? I mean it’s not mutually exclusive…….
