Was this ref born in the heart of Nottingham? 

 

Blatant cheating at this point. 

[Thor 2,686]

I bet you he blows the whistle at 11 minutes exactly despite all the time wasting.

[Thor 2,686]

This literally needs an additional 4 minutes on top of the 11 now.

Nottingham are a dogshit team. Wish nothing but the worst for them.

They have been in really bad form in the last couple of months. I think we can turn them over next week 

[Thor 2,686]

Absolute turd of a team. Disgraceful team. 

Wouldn't shake a single hand out there after the BS they put out. Also ref clearly had a NF jersey on underneath the kit.

They are going to be really up for it next week with the home crowd on their side. 
 

Stinks of a defeat tbh. Can’t see our lade coping with it.

CHO will think he has something to prove. But if we have the right attitude that Cucu has, grit and fight, we can do them

Such a weird year. Kane winning a trophy, Palace winning a trophy, Spurs in an European final with a chance to win a trophy. 

If Spurs actually manage to win the trophy, then it is almost certain that Forest wil get the Champions League football 😀 that’s how weird this season is.

[Milan 17,955]

Anyway, incredible how close the table is when it comes to the CL spots. 5 teams fighting fot 3 spots. Please please Chels just be one of those 3

Yes, this is our biggest advantage. They will attack us early on and it's important to survive that early wave. We also probably need to win but let's not panic. Let's them implode and destroy them on counters.

Can't be hanging on results elsewhere. As long as we don't concede early, the mistakes will come I feel

nottm cant won the last 3 games at home

Will be a tough game. We all agree, but I dont share the same pessimism that some people have 

our last away games are awful but the games were very hard - newcaste, brighton, villa, arsenal... - all tough games

[Special Juan 28,088]

The City Ground will be fucking bouncing, and I keep banging on about us and big atmospheres 

Only one outcome for me

The wait to break the Premier League's goal involvement record goes on for Mohamed Salah.

But on his 400th Liverpool appearance, he really should have been celebrating equalling the tally.

Quite how the Egyptian side-footed Cody Gakpo's low cross wide of an empty net from just yards out in Monday's defeat at Brighton, no-one really knows. His own wry smile suggested his own disbelief.

Two months ago, he looked set to destroy Premier League records and produce the greatest attacking individual season in the competition's history.

Salah's double against Southampton on 8 March took him to 27 goals and 17 assists in 29 matches, just three goal involvements short of the Premier League record of 47, held jointly by Alan Shearer and Andrew Cole.

He also looked certain to beat the record of 20 Premier League assists in a season, jointly held by Arsenal's Thierry Henry and Manchester City's Kevin de Bruyne.

Since then, has recorded just one goal and one assist in eight matches, leaving him still one short of the goal involvement record and two short of the assist record.
