I've been reading the various reports and chewing over the situation between our owner/ club and the FA. Whilst I am over the moon with our results and position in the table this season, I remain sad just how far our club has degenerated in its actions and, subsequently, in its perception/ reputation by others' since promotion.

Yes we do seem to be victimised- against. However, our falling foul of FFP; our constant whinging about VAR decisions; 'that post' on our official social media site; official and unofficial complaints against numerous refs; and now our owner waiting for officials to come down the tunnel and then spit at their feet in disgust. It's no wonder that our reputation as a club is lower than I can ever remember.

Personally, I find it all a bit embarrassing. We are the oldest club in the EPL; twice European Cup winners; the 'resurgents' after so many years in the lower leagues and a club on-the-up. Yet our senior management team act like petulant teenagers. They are the ones that are negatively affecting our great club's reputation.

It frustrates me.

Can't disagree with anything you have put on that post legless, the only positive thing is that we have a owner who actually cares about the club. Don't really remember any other owner who showed so much passion, I don't agree with the spitting behaviour that's just disgusting.

I don't believe in this 'the FA are against us' mantra. We've constantly moaned about VAR and referee decisions despite the fact that other clubs have had shocking decisions go against them as well. We questioned the integrity of the league and the match officials. The owner spits in the direction of match officials.

We have no real grounds for complaints other than our own in-group bias. I'll await dodgy excuses for the punishment but there isn't any excuse for our behaviour at the higher echelon of the club.

I take it you've never been to Greece spitting is part of there culture it's not like he spat in anyone's face get over it.

24 Oct 2024 08:42:45
There's dodgy excuse number 1, Skegs.

24 Oct 2024 09:02:00
Successful clubs/ managers? Marinho/ Chelski: Constantly in conflict with refs and FA. Ferguson? etc, etc

On the other hand, we had Clough! We don't argue with the refs.

For me, I'd rather see Nuno get a ban and show some passion, as he looked like a lifeless statue for months. Fook the FA/ Prem League!

Just saying it has it is Polly ?.

24 Oct 2024 09:07:16
And has a forest fan I've realised over the years are fans are never happy they always find something to moan about or to be negative about mind you nuno seems to be giving them something to think about doing his job getting the results and keeping the negativity away carry on young man ?.

24 Oct 2024 10:58:20
You can be accused of anything by the refs and PL. Innocent until proven guilty? Not in their kangaroo court. Fair and balanced fines and suspensions? Not.
I suppose they're lucky their families don't own bakers, allegedly. COYR, fight the good fight but do our talking on the pitch. FTID.

24 Oct 2024 11:25:07
You could say exactly the same about the home fans cyclist maybe if they watch the fester game they can learn off the fans that go to the away games, ?? nuno nuno?.

24 Oct 2024 12:58:14
Thank God we have an owner who cares about the club and won’t be bullied. I was in the camp of not blaming referees but it’s gone too far now with VAR operators and forth officials coming out of their lane with interventions that make no sense. They are cheats it’s as simple as that.

I’ve been to Greece many times and yes they have a different culture to ours skegsjay, but we’re not in Greece we live in a supposedly developed country, there is no place for disgusting vile acts from anyone, whoever they are, and let’s be frank he was lucky to get a 5 ground ban. Just because he’s a billionaire it doesn’t entitle him to behave like a moronic yob.

24 Oct 2024 13:57:43
Skegs, I’ve been to Greece quite a few times and I’ve never noticed a Greek predilection for spitting mate ?.

24 Oct 2024 15:10:45
Supposedly developed country Vale ?
3rd world corrupt backwater mess ?.

24 Oct 2024 15:30:32
Stokey there probably not allowed to spit in the library of a 5 star hotel ?.

24 Oct 2024 15:37:27
Can’t argue with that balloons, but some of us still hold old fashioned values. And I for one will never join the heard following the yob culture.

Thanks for your posts guys. I find it fascinating how fellow-fans perceive our recent situation as a club and the difference in points of view.

I have to say though - as regular contributors to this site I'd love to know what Skegs and Balloons really think about our shenanigans as a club? I'm not interested in the difference between ours and the Greek cultures - I just want to know what everyone really thinks.

24 Oct 2024 21:37:28
Oh you'll never get that legless, far too complicated on both counts. I'm sure you will get a better insight in the tbi when you meet up with the chaps.

24 Oct 2024 22:07:30
Yes good luck with meeting any chaps in the tbi legless?? and what's wrong with what's going on at the club it's in the best place it's been for ages passionate owner won't sit back and let the so called gods the fa and it's official ls walk all over us why don't you all concentrate on how we're doing well in games and stop worrying about the little things like I said before some forest fans just like to moan and look at the negativity all the time why don't you just be happy we're 8th in the league Nuno Nuno ureddssss ?.

24 Oct 2024 22:10:15
Thanks RV. Train tickets and hotel booked for me and my boy to attend the Villa game. Looking forward to the TBI beforehand and hopefully meeting some of you.

I'm not being funny, but I would love to get the opinions of those two characters if possible.

25 Oct 2024 02:56:31
What shenanigans Lego?. All clubs have problems with players, Refs, financial irregularities and the good old FA, but we just seemed to moan about it more than anybody else. Me personally, I couldn't care less as its none of my business. I just get on with watching them climb up the league ?.
