I wonder if points deductions and dodgy decisions are all part of the plan to keep the battle for survival as interesting as the battle for the title?

I hope we give Neville and Carragher a warm Nottingham welcome to TWFCG when Sky come to town with Man (should be in the National League) City on Sunday
The Forest " mafia" will be out in force and I just wonder how they would have reacted to the Everton result if it had been Utd or Liverpool fighting relegation and getting those decisions.

Surprisingly Stan Collymore saying there were no penalties yesterday, seems so many have it in for us, as far as I'm concerned they will not be welcome at the CG.
We need friends at present, they seem quite thin on the ground.

I agree Carlo. I can’t wait for Man City game- we need to all collectively let the ref and VAR team know just what we think. Starting on the 3rd minute and lasting for 3 whole minutes of chanting “you’re not fit to ref a match” or something similar. Take the roof off the place and let national media see we all stand together.

To get back to normal get rid of Sky sports and the money till then it is what it is the big Six will run football to the fan's disadvantage. Man City will get away with their crime's and while they fended the crime's off won numerous cups etc WRONG WRONG.

I’m delighted with the stance our club has taken. Why? Because someone has to stand up and say it how it is. Someone needs to stand up to the bully and give as good as they get. Some of the decisions this season against us have been scandalous. I pay hard earned cash to follow us all over the country. It’s an entertainment industry isn’t it? Well I’m not feeling very entertained watching pathetic decisions week in week out and walking away feeling that I’ve been cheated. It’s apparent we aren’t a good team. It’s apparent our manager isn’t up to much. It’s apparent that PGMOL is either incompetent or corrupt. Stand up folks and shout it loud and clear. We won’t put up with it longer, we won’t go quietly into the night. Next home game shout it loud so every cameraman and radio station picks up on our feelings

It all started with that absolutely bizzare corner, first game of last season against Newcastle when we had no players in the box, a decision i found hard to believe was Coopers idea who looked completely embarrassed by it. Since then it's just been a complete clown fest. Stay up or go down tge only way we make it, bring in a coach or manager, look at their beliefs and philosophies, like their ideas and go with it. Stop running the club like a bad circus and get a grip. It's becoming embarrassing how much the club have made me cringe with their ideas and statements. Think most people will be glad to see the back of us, even I've had enough now and can't be bothered. If we stay up, great if we don't, oh well, see you later to the players who can't wait to leave, watch us struggle financially and just suck it up and get on with it.

Bottom line to save mass debate
Cooper was crap
Nuno is just as crap
The players are crap
The owner is a fruit cake
And has wasted a boat load of money he will never get back
The bottom end of the premier is so bad it's untrue will we
Stay up? Maybe maybe not quite sure Frankly who cares we will 100% go down next year if we do so it's just delaying the inevitable and the premier league is garbage anyway 🎈.

If the "players are crap" and "the owner is a fruit cake" who has wasted a load of money, then why were you saying the complete opposite when Cooper was the coach? 🤔
If the above is true, then it proves one thing: Cooper was doing a fantastic job getting us promoted, keeping us up and afloat when all he had were "crap Players" to do it with.

You've hit it on the head d3rbyred.
We are not good enough.
So many times this season I've watched inept perfotmances.
Yesterday it looked like we have resigned ourselves to relegation.
Our once proud Nottingham Forest are becoming the laughing stock of football.
Marannakis at the end of the season
If he hangs around has got to get rid of all his senior people who have wasted his millions on these players. Get a manager or coach what ever you want to call him in who can instill some much needed inspiration and fight, because this guy does neither.
Okay Bowie I respect your views but when you sit there week in week out
watching inept performances from a very poor side you'll understand why we get very frustrated. The amount of money spent in putting this shambolic team together should have reeped better rewards than
this.

Balloons is correct, it is an entertainment industry. Footballers aren’t footballers they are performers just playing up to the crowd, every time they score it’s a finger to the lips or hands over the ears to the away supporters. That was never done before sky sports took over. Money has ruined the game. I walk the dog on a Sunday morning and see little kids no more than 10 years old doing it, just no respect anymore. I watched the fa cup game last night, last min of extra time cov score, well we knew that wouldn’t be allowed. More revenue for an all Manchester cup final, can’t have a cup upset can we it just wouldn’t do. ITS ALL CORRUPT.

The irony of it is that neither of the Manchester clubs take the FAcup that seriously, you don’t see any of the first team players until the 5th round. They look on it as a right of passage, even the money it generates is pocket money to them, but for Coventry two trips to Wembley is a big earner and could shape their chances next season. If there was any justice all the prem sides that qualify for any of the euro cup competitions should not be included in any of the domestic competitions for that season. The two Manchester clubs will make a fortune from their overseas fans. Just hope the trains are on strike and the m1 is closed on final day.

I don't understand why people are up in arms about the VAR decisions yesterday. We won't get those go in our favour this season. Even the 'stonewallers'. It's not a surprise.
Neither is the bad defending and bad finishing when we create chances. Both of those facts have blighted our season. Referee's are terrible. VAR is terrible. But the main thing is WE ARE NOT GOOD ENOUGH! As simple as that. We have some matches where we play a blinder for 45 minutes than go back to normal. We look like we will always concede but won't score many either. Bad combination and a relegation formula. 4 matches to sort it out.

My two penneth.
We had a game plan to target Ashley Young, that 'worked' as we created 3 penalty chances. That we were given zero, does not mean we played a bad game.
Sels had bugger all to do, I remember 1 save from a header. The fact they crept 2 in off the post, against the run of play is 'unlucky'. I do agree both players should've been closed down with more aggression.
The club raised a potential 'conflict of interest' with Attwell appointed to VAR. This concern was ignored and what transpired I believe justified the response.
First penalty given, different game. 2nd given? Likely yellow card for Young and probably subbed, different game.
Likely result? We'll never know because corruption, prejudice or plain incompetence have conspired against us.
Club, players and fans should use this to create a 'siege mentality ', can we do it, against all the odds. FTID. 🙏🙏🙏.

Cheers Stokey. I was incandescent with rage yesterday and luckily opted out of a pint. The air would've been blue and not from grateful Evertonians. Most can't believe the decisions and felt we were robbed. Some Liverpool fans questioned the X post but backed down when I commented ' if a Man City supporting ref had done the same in a game of yours, how would you have reacted? ' Most agreed, they wouldn't want them near their game. I reminded them the bottom of the league is just as important as the top.
