Nottingham Forest vs Aston Villa Match Thread

Digne is making some superb overlapping runs, and being ignored

[baddowvillans]

So how was that a free kick but the penalty wasnt?

[SamTheMouse]

Being able to bring Onana and Watkins off the bench is quite impressive.

Rogers in a nutshell just then……skilfully squirms away from a Forest player, falls over.

Alan Smith said that it's easier to give a foul when it's not in the penalty area. Sounded very tongue in cheek

Yep, I was just about to post the same, almost like he's making it up as he goes.

How are we playing?

It's a hard watch but we are a little better overall than they.

[stevo_st]

Ok, but like we played a champions league game mid week

Honestly I don’t know why he gets paid.

Cheers. Following on here as no radio sadly

[PaulWinch again]

teielmans put us in the shit then

Tielemans has been so careless on the ball of late.

Right game, ref has let it become a bit of a battle. Should've had a stonewall pen first half, Emi made one of the best saves ever and Duran finished the 1 truly great bit of attacking play either side has produced.

He really did make it sound like a cricicsm of the ref, I thought

Not really is it.
