I think we need to accept that turning round this thundering shitternaut is going to take time. It'll be at least 2018 until we get back where we belong. I bet Dr Tony went fucking nuts in Shanghai though.

I read somewhere that they practically had to put a spit hood on and taser him at Luton, he was so annoyed.

Given recent events,  maybe remarks about tasering aren't exactly wise or tasteful.
Don't start something that isn't there, please.

Why is it every game you just get a nagging feeling that they are going to get undone by either a massive f up of their own doing, or wonder goals, and there is nothing than can be done to stop it.

Every single game.

Gardner needs to be forced to stop shooting from distance. I don't mind players having a shot but damn, he's rubbish at it.

26 goal attempts is the most we've had in a game for 6 years.
That's amazing ... it's an improvement.

We really could have had 5

Good performance for me. Bad luck, poor game management and some sloppy finishing cost us

Frustrating as fuck but it will come

It's no consolation, but I bet Forest fans were saying similar things when Gestede scored. Nobody knows the weaknesses of a football team better than their own fans.

Which is exactly what makes it so fucking frustrating

I'm positive. Compare the play and side today to where we were any of the last 3 seasons and we are headed in the right direction. It was always going to take time - massive player turnover and a culture of defeat that is going to take a while to suppress.

It will click - lots of positives - and it's a long long season.

Yeah, I heard he had to be wheeled out of there on one of those trucks they put Hannibal Lecter on, and he still managed to spray the ambulance with excrement and bite a paramedic's face off.

Frustrating again but we do look as if at some point we'll take some team apart and click. Lets hope it Wednesday.

I just do not see what he thought he was doing in not shoring up the midfield (ie to actually give us one) when 2-1 up and 10 or so minutes to see out till victory.

Forest were utterly fucking awful, yet they've come away with a point. That is what has got to stop.

I think he hoped we'd carry on playing how we did to go into the lead. If we'd carried on like that, we would've breezed it. For whatever reason, we stopped. That was the players.

But there was no reason to try to grab a third, we had ten minutes to see out, he should have strengthened in the middle and killed off the game. How many strikers did we have on the pitch at the end?

It struck me as asking for trouble, and the person who mentioned it having a whiff of Bradford about it was right.

I know what you're saying. Just thought the way we were playing we was in total control and Forest didn't have a look in.

If we do click against a team and batter them, I'd like it to be the Jawdies. Statement of intent right there. But I'll settle for giving the Noses a smashing.
