No, I haven't. Maybe others have and I don't doubt it.

As for the new keeper, how good is he Bob?

You seem to know things we don't. Other than not making is with the Slovaks, is he that bad?

What do you know about him that makes you scoff?

Loans?

Yep.. nothing wrong with loans.. It's within the rules.
Jara seems to be a good find. Sharp certainly is doing his job. I assume you wouldn't want either in your team.

As for the game Saturday? I was disappointed we didn't kill you off. We finished stronger. Saying that we didn't trouble Legins enough to force a winner.

The red dogs failed to win again so another pathetic whinge from their so called supporters. Last time they were bullied by Jake Buxton. I haven't noticed them comment that Forest committed over twice as many fouls as Derby on Saturday. This time we play hoofball, this from supporters of the team with two tactics. Play it long to Sharp or throw it long from Halford.

Come on, Webbo, if he can't make it in Slovakia, do you think he is going to make it here? I'd argue our second tier is probably better than the Slovak top division, which regularly receives international tv coverage

We had Ruben Zadkovich. Played in England, didn't make it, went back to Australia, came back for a second attempt & didn't make it.

oh wow. Sammon managed to rob a poor Forest defender once in 93 minutes. Doesn't make him a strong player though.

Bob....

And some Ausies do make it... You do not know whether he is good enough. He wouldn't speak the local Slovak for a start.

He may not speak English either (I do not know) but he isn't being rushed into the side. I have no worries that we are looking at bargin buys. It's not about spending dollops of cash all the time is it?

You would no doubt slag us off for that too

No, Webbo, not at all. Look, it's banter in the end. Forest fans, even some of our own, mock Sammon. You've had a pop at the young maestro when he's just 17 and probably carrying an injury. Just responding in kind.

Bob

Hughes wasn't on his game at all. Surprised Nigel didn't sub him early 2nd half

"He wouldn't speak the local Slovak for a start."



Yeah, that'll be it.

It's a valid point

Maybe the ball flies differently in the rarified Slovakian atmosphere than in his native land. No doubt there are many equally valid explanations for his abject failure to make the grade.

You aren't "looking at bargin (sic) buys". Your owner is foisting players on your club whether the manager likes it or not.

I can't begin to tell you how much I hoped it was a Forest fan... gutted!!

Headline in the Sun, ex Forest supporter talks about becoming a human being.

So some Derby fans admit they played hoofball and others deny it. Which ones actually attended the match I wonder..

I was there Caniggia, to witness Forest's "direct" approach.

posted on 21/1/13

no caniggia, learn to read in context. There was an occasional 'hoofball' pass during the last half an hour.

posted on 21/1/13

Oh ok, sorry Mostyn, I forgot how to read for a second then but thanks for reminding me

Even with the ball in the air Forest still managed to inflict over twice as many fouls on Derby players as Derby did on Forest. Had we played it more on the deck Forest's thugs might have damaged our most valuable asset in young Will. When we have to play one of the dirtiest teams in the league we sometimes have to make compromises.

Seems like the sheep are making excuses for failing to beat us on their own turf.

Sheepy

That's the great thing about football. If we play each other enough times, eventually all of the planets align and a miracle happens.

Roomful of Monkeys + multiple typewriters = Saturday's match report

Excuse me Tonto but the whinging again was by the Forest fans for failing to win again. You should take some comfort that you managed to take 2 points off us this season. As you are a great lover of numbers since Forest and Derby both came into the championship via different routes we have played each other twekve times. Derby have won 6 and Forest 3. One of the draws Forest achieved was after we scored two injury time goals both dislallowed for some inexplicable reason so really we have won 7. I think that states a level of dominance over you in recent times.

Spartacus, how have they taken 2 points off us?

They've prevented us from having 2 more points, but they didn't take them
