I thought it was a minutes applause:icon_razz and yes they did what I expect football fans to do- apart from the idiots.

doh :icon_redf

I wasn't in the corporate bit, but yes there were a lot in there too. They didn't seem to be having too good a day for some reason :icon_lol:
 
Wow - going by that post, the Forest devils played against the Leicester saints.

The only part of the game you were in control of ( embarrassingly so ) was after the goal to the end. Up until that point I thought we shaded it.

Look, we both see the game from a different perspective, my opinion is alwaysgoing to be biased towards Forest and ditto yours with Leicester which doesn't make any of the right and I would think that somewhere nicely in the middle is the truth......

Aw, poor Rich B.

I think hes cranky because his team have lost 3 consecutive "derby" games on the bounce without scoring a single goal.

Yes we are saints. That would explain why Hobbs picked up his FIRST booking of the season yesterday. That and the fact that he isn't a diiiiiiiiiiiiiirty cheating brute like Morgan is of course.
 
Bit too far south for those Northerners innit.

Apparently they don't care if it's a team whose ground is more than half an hour's walk away. In fact, I'm led to believe there are Forest fans actually still celebrating our win because it's such an irrelevant game to them.
 
What a silly load of nonsense - talk about showing yourself up. Jeez :icon_roll

It was an even game until we scored, as both sides simply cancelled each other out - but when we did score they collapsed like a house of cards. It was quite pitiful to watch (but obviously immensely enjoyable). Their performance in the last twenty minutes was probably the worst we've seen all season. Clueless and hopeless, and we exploited them perfectly. Overall the best team won. Simples

That's how the game was - anyone who claims anything else either wasn't there, or is an idiot. Any claims about tactics or lack of protection from the ref are simply pathetic - as are the bizarre claims about watering the pitch or food poisoning or the officials being offered a night with Cate if they let us win (ok I made that one up, but it's no worse than the others)

Just another three points in the bag, against a pretty average looking team - now onto the next game (laughing as we go)

Its a good job I am in a good mood Homer :icon_lol:
 
Haven't read the rest of the thread after your OTT sour post so I'll take your points in turn in reply, and then have a laugh at everyone else having a laugh at you.

Barely deserved it? Ahem. First half was even imo- we looked better first period, you looked better second period, with neither side really going for it. A tight, cautious first half which I was expecting actually.


Handball? Yes well, we had a couple of blatant ones in that oenalty area not given for us in recent weeks so as they say, those decisions even themselves out. Some you get, some you don't.

Yup ref was shocking. Earnshaw should've got a second yellow for the cynical foul on Wellens which led to our first goal. In fact, Wellens got booked for less in the first half. Ref bottled the decision. He was shite, as was the piss poor linesman our side of thep itch who for some reason decided to flag for offside when Morrison headed onto the bar, one of many decisions he got wrong, including being 20yards closer than the ref to the shirtpull which saw the ref award us the free kick which led to our second.


Centrebacks- I'm assuming you meant the utterly brilliant Jack Hobbs in the first half, who didn't hestitate in putting the tackles in when he had to and EVERY time winning the ball at crucial moments.
He and Brown did however give away a couple of free kicks though you've obviously forgotten those.......however YOUR centrebacks, especially that ugly brute who was pinning ickle Waggy down for most of the game should've been yellow carded along with his other five team mates for persistant fouling. And yet it i Waggy who got penalised for standing still and not even bothering to jump for a ball, letting said ugly brute climb all over his shoulders........TSK. Shameful.

Anit-football? Sure you weren't watching your lot? Dying all over the pitch, diving blatantly outside the area and eventually desperately trying to play keepball but failing miserably. Whereas we were patient first half, making sure you couldn't find much of a way through, and yes at times using to our advantage long ball tactics(if you've seen Brown play regularly you will know he is better doing than than trying to pass it to a team mate) and second half we were pretty much in control of things. We played with some good flowing moves which showed your lot up, especially after you imploded after we took the lead.


If that is all you can come out with after almost 24 hours reflection on being beaten by a better side on the day then to be quite frank, it's piss-poor.

Toodle-pip!

Reading this thread back, I should apologise for being a tad OTT. The attitude of Dickie B really got to me.
As a father I strive to teach my boys to have dignity when losing games. I guess it winds me up when this simple social act is handled so poorly by a bitter loser.

Fact is that we won the match convincingly. It was far from our best performance of the season, but effective massively. Indeed when we played teams off the pitch (Newcastle away for example) we have often lost out. NP's tactics yesterday were 100% right, as the scoreline testifies; as was Davies' at the CG in December.

Trees friends of mine with more grace and maturity have applauded Leicester City FC yesterday without the need of any cynicism, which is right. End of the day the three points are ours, and Forest look like a team shaken, which bodes well if we are to make moves for the automatic place, however this is WBA's IMO.

I look forward to a potential play off scenario with Forest with far more confidence than Swansea City who I think a far better side, in the match at the CG we were completely outclassed and whilst we didn't outclass Forest yesterday for 60 mins, we slaughtered them once scored decisively.

So Dickie B, a word to the man, you would have done more for your club's reputation by losing with grace and dignity than by trying to offend our victory. However my reaction was OTT, apologies for this to anyone who felt it so.
 
Just to clear up the trouble issue in the Family Stand. Being from Melton there are a large number Forest fans and Leicester fans among us. At the fixture at the City Ground earlier in the season several of my friends went to the fixture (not me), all together in the Forest end. There was no trouble, although obviously it wasn't very enjoyable for the City fans. The same group went to yesterday's fixture, this time in the City end. One Forest fan who hadn't gone to the last game went this time and he and the City fan next to him got involved in some 'lively banter'. At the point where City scored, the City fan celebrated and the Forest fan duly swung at him (and missed). They half tumbled into the row below them and then got held apart by both City and Forest fans among our group.

There were no adults involved who had children with them, the nearest child was my 4 year old daughter (at her 1st game) as we were sat next to them. However, it had been coming so I was ready and made sure my daughter was facing the other way and was well out of the way (she still is blissfully unaware of what happened). The Forest fan was then escorted out by a City fan from our group to cool down.

That was it. One missed punch and then a lot of people stopping anything else happening (apart from the bit where Forest boy took his wooly hat off and threw it at City boy :icon_bigg)

I'm not justifying any of this, they were both being pissed up idiots, just explaining what happened.
