Nottingham Forest banter 10

Burglars in London think Arsenal’s Trophy Cabinet could be a good shout next year, been off their list for the past 5 years while it was empty.

Last nights game was approached like a friendly from Management, that spilled over to some of the players.

18 Sep 2025 10:31:19
Don't agree, Nuno changed a complete team in this competition, did he treat it like a friendly? Ange talked of winning the cup, but wanted to give the new signings game time. I see no problem with that. Lots of talk about subs etc being the cause of defeat. We should of have the game sewn up with the chances we missed. We lost the game basically through rank bad defending. Boly beaten to the ball for the first two goals, Yates should do better in trying to stop the cross in goal number 2. Third goal no response from us as the ball came back off the woodwork. Let's hope a first choice defence, minus Ola, are available for Saturday.

18 Sep 2025 10:57:10
Third goal was Savona's fault - as you say, too slow a response from him. His second mistake following his not watching the man and as the ball went over his head in the Arsenal match. He looks like a fresh-faced kid who is overawed by the PL and needs to mature very quickly if he wants to come over here and earn big money. I'm sure Edu would have thought of that though before discussing it with Nuno?!

18 Sep 2025 08:38:49
I know there is no such thing as a bogey side, but Swansea I remember clearly as if it was yesterday. An earlier post I say said it wouldn't be easy.
My concern is that it is a damaging blow psychologically. Burnley remember didn't loose until that final minute penalty. I see no reason to feel optimistic as Sunderland next and loose both we will be in the bottom 3. Of AP doesn't see what happened in both these games and who he should drop, we will be relegated. I for one would welcome back Mr Cooper.

18 Sep 2025 09:15:15
Although we are a different machine with our first 11 on the pitch I worry about the club environment and pressures forced upon all.

Nuno, had tried to keep a stable ship, but once the results started turning back end of last season the ship started sinking.

Had we had a stable ship, we could afford to make so many changes last night, but perhaps Nunos strategy of earning the shirt in training and on the pitch was the correct one.

A good thing about last night was that Jesus got a run at striker and showed us what he could do, creating some real competition for Wood. And this is a prime example that players need time to settle.

18 Sep 2025 07:24:32
Left back becoming a problem area again. Maybe we should have kept Omar?

18 Sep 2025 09:31:59
Is it?
We have enough at full back in my opinion.
Zinchenko is a solid experienced player and will prove to be a very good addition over the course of the season.
Neco and Aina can play both sides (obviously Aina is injured)
Savona looks solid from what we’ve seen so far.

Once Domi is back from injury I think he’d be more than capable of doing a job at full back if we were desperate.

Perhaps a youngster can force their way into the first team squad for training and impress if need an extra body.

18 Sep 2025 11:00:38
Savona looks solid? He looks totally out of his depth from what I've seen so far and a complete joke.

18 Sep 2025 13:54:00
Both Savona and Jair look out of their depth lacking experience and nous about English football. Morato can't play left back so we are relying only on Zinchenko who can't play every game.
I still think Left back is our recurring achilles' heel. Nuno knew this. He also wanted Adama Traore whose strength would have done wonders for our midfield.

18 Sep 2025 02:00:59
It could get worse you know, another load of sheepshaggers waiting to have a go! Why can professional players not see the game out? As soon as they scored the first I knew what was coming, and they haven't disappointed! MGW, Sangare AGAIN not putting a shift in! At least we got penalty shoot-outs with Nuno lol I'll be very surprised if MGW is a Forest player at the end of Jan 2026!

18 Sep 2025 07:47:49
Said to my mate at 2-1 "they'll get another couple of chances. "
However I never expected that!
Just joking DTP about your prediction, think yours was bad?
I was i'm my local for the 1990 FA Cup Final. so Pearce's free kick I predicted he'd score and "Stand like a statue".
So as we know he did, and I did likewise with my Shipstones shirt on. by the end I was caught skulking out of the bar mate!
"We can see you sneaking out the back Rogie!
We can see you sneaking out the baaaaaack! "
🤣🤣🤣🤣.

18 Sep 2025 00:21:15
Trouble at mill
Ange not happy with a few he bought on
And rightly so.

17 Sep 2025 22:58:00
As far as I'm concerned, I don't want to see sangare or MGW PLAY again for us
Ones not good enough the other has no interest in. playing for us
Bin the pair, should know with their experience jow to close game out.

18 Sep 2025 02:02:05
I think it's time for someone to sit mgw down and tell him some hard facts about what happens next. firstly he should stop acting like a petulant child that's had his legs slapped. secondly if he wants out, and clearly he does then he should start playing to impress because at the moment he hasn't got a cat in hells chance of a move to one of the big boys, and to be honest who in their right minds would have him. i posted last week that "no team is too good to go down" I'm genuinely concerned for forest this season, our main priority is premier safety, the cup comes second surely not the other way around. i haven't commented on the new coach yet as I think it's early days, but a pasting at Burnley and Mr M should have second thoughts. that's as honest as I can be.

18 Sep 2025 05:39:32
They gave us a lesson in finishing.

17 Sep 2025 22:31:59
9 goals conceded in 3 games.
6 in 2 from the new manager.
Maranackas you've made one almighty cock up.
He nearly took Spurs down what are the odds he will succeed with us.
There's no excuses we are miles away from what we were last season.
So much money wasted. If Edu is responsible for some of these signings he should have been sacked not Nuno. All the excitement of what we achieved last season has been eroded. Its going to be a really long hard season.
It really looks like a hurried appointment. I was willing to give him a chance and see what he could do. But now got big doubts.

17 Sep 2025 23:43:57
Anderson will be back and I bet ange wishes he'd of put him on the bench instead of sangare and MGW.

18 Sep 2025 00:24:54
Hang on dtp you were praising his way forward on live chat? Can't blame two players. Make your mind up. You whith him or against.?

18 Sep 2025 05:24:11
Well he can't blame the manager Bowie how stupid would he look.

18 Sep 2025 08:38:00
He probably forgot what he said, Bowie.

17 Sep 2025 22:31:49
Nicolo Savono too slow in closing down his man for their 3rd goal, his second big mistake sinc6he came into the team. He is clearly not up to this football yet. Another Edu signing? It was a mistake taking Jesus off at half time, he was having a great game. Unfortunately without Sels, Murrillo, Aina and Milenkovic we are nowhere.

17 Sep 2025 23:10:42
We can play Williams on right and Zinchenko left. I agree Savona looks like a player who isn't settled yet.

We played Nuno's team Sat, and 2nd 11 or players Ange wanted to look at today. We actually lost after MGW and CHO came on.

Sels

Williams
Milenkovic
Murillo
Zinchenko

Anderson
Luiz

Bakwa, ? , Ndoye

Jesus


Team's picked itself apart from number 10. Probably be MGW but neither McAtee or MGW have earned the start IMO. Can Bakwa play 10 and CHO start?

Wood is unlucky if he doesn't start but surely Jesus has a few of youu lot getting your humble pies out?

18 Sep 2025 00:14:22
Cyclist we have a player that goes out as captain that isn't interested, so drop him simple, no player is bigger than the club.

18 Sep 2025 05:25:31
Dtp ange got it wrong. Just say it 🤣🤣 it's ange football get use to it.

18 Sep 2025 05:34:54
They are all Edu's signings. Let's not pretend the previous coach had any input on players coming in.

17 Sep 2025 22:29:11
Take a chill pill. He was looking at the players he has and will have learned a lot. Wonder goal won it remember.

17 Sep 2025 23:47:20
I agree fingers
I know who I could trust after seeing that.

17 Sep 2025 22:19:27
2nd half poor defending, poor finishing, poor distribution and poor decision making.

17 Sep 2025 22:39:22
Got to be honest. I'm gutted.

Looked promising for most of the game. But to concede 3 goals to a bang average championship side, who also made changes after their home draw with Hull at the weekend has me worried.

I will be in the stands next week in Seville. So if we are 3 0 up with 30 minutes to go I will probably be hopeful of a draw based on tonight.

17 Sep 2025 23:58:35
It's not our normal defence though, totally the opposite
Plusses for me out of the game are luiz, bakwa, Hutchinson, jesus
Negatives Yates boly, sangare MGW
it was a game to experiment and ange did that, but when the likes of MGW CHO and sangare let you down, then I worry for him or any other coach should the axe fall quickly
Never try and keep an unhappy player.

18 Sep 2025 05:27:00
Plusses for me ange one step nearer to getting sack. bring back nuno.

17 Sep 2025 22:14:08
I haven’t been on here for about 5/ 6 years. Genuinely. I felt I had to come on because I could not believe the amount of moaning from so many of you about Nuno. Disrespectful in the extreme.

Congratulation, well done. We have sacked him and got this reckless manager who - if he gets 7th or better - I’ll gladly disappear for another 5/ 6 years.

Ridiculous. It is going to be a decision we regret very soon. Perhaps we do already?

Unlike many of you seemingly, whilst I can appreciate the backing of the chairman financially, I do not support the way this and many of the aspects of the club appear to be run.

17 Sep 2025 22:25:47
A lot of the people on here were saying Nuno should've been sacked for daring to criticise Mr. M. Not sure what they'll think in a couple of months.

17 Sep 2025 22:35:48
Erm why is that our fault forestC? Not that I give nuno a hard time. (Only on the pathetic decision not to make changes on his last game) nothing to do with us on a banter site. Now IF and only IF nuno and big M. Did have a fall out over new signings, then I'd agree with nuno. But we will never know the true impact of them both. Only jesus so far for me suits forest.

17 Sep 2025 22:43:15
100% agree with you ForestCAgen, well done for saying this. What Nuno has done with this team is a fantastic achievement 👍.

17 Sep 2025 22:54:34
Welcome back - I couldn't agree with you more.

That's one ticked-off from Big M's list for silverware, due to our old habit of capitulation.

17 Sep 2025 23:20:17
Delusional comments, agree totally with you Bowie. Nuno manufactured his own sacking after getting a bumper payday. Makes me laugh its our fault Nuno got sacked. Nuno did the same at Wolves.

Note to self:ForestCAgen thinks big Mr M reads banter sites so i better not say what i think🤣🤣🌳.

17 Sep 2025 23:39:55
Winter I'm with you
Think ange has a huge problem on his hands with MGW
I think MGW could wreck our season.

17 Sep 2025 23:57:18
MGW, Sangare, Hutchinson and McAtee aren't playing well enough to get in a league two side atm, can see Ange playing without a number ten, we have decent options out wide and if Jesus continues like tonight I'd play him up top with Woody. Go 442.🌳.

18 Sep 2025 00:08:28
Whys it took you six years?
We weren't doing anything then barring me sticking my bedsheet over a wall?
You must like being depressing people as it would of been nice to congratulate nuno and Cooper on their achievements and not having a go at ange after two games and ten days in charge forest c agen?

18 Sep 2025 05:42:08
Nuno got sacked because the owner has got a massive ego and is far too sensitive.
