Nottingham Forest v Aston Villa Match Thread

[Mister E]

World class save by Martinez.

Buendia, Rogers, Tilemans and Watkins have all been pretty crap to be honest, hopefully one of them can take the game by thw scruff of the neck in 2nd half.

come on! No one's been crap! Buendia has been weak in a couple of scenarios but generally it's been good

[Beard82]

Need to get Roger’s and McGinn on the ball more.  Digne been unusual poor.

The ref has been poor

[rob_bridge]

Need to get Bailey on.

....the team bus? Niw?

We haven't created a great deal.

[jwarry]

Thought we’ve done well and look organised. Pressure is on Forest now.

We’ve wasted corners and set pieces.

Pleasantly surprised with Onana but disappointed with Rogers.

Clear red card which was missed! If Watkins had stayed down I wonder?

It wasn’t missed, VAR looked at it and decided to dismiss it.  Very fishy

[CT Villan]

Surely someone is speaking to the referee at halftime

Marinakis for sure.

What I can't get my head around is VAR looked at it, studs up, over the ball and straight onto his ankle and didn't even bother getting the ref to check it. Bullshit like that is exactly why 'he got the ball' is about the worst catchphrase to ever enter the game as if a knick on the ball on the way to his ankle makes it any less of a leg-breaker. It wouldn't have taken much more force for that to wreck the end of our season.

To add insult to it 10minutes later Buendia got a touch on the ball and then tripped Hutchinson with his follow-through and the ref gave the free kick.

My little river has dried up. Anyone got any water supplies please?

If we keep the ball better we'll open them up.

How Anderson hasn't had a card of any colour is shocking.

Marinakis for sure.

Would that even surprise anyone?

[DB]

Same as them really. Onus is on them though. Our crossing and final ball has been poor.

[N'ZMAV]

That Anderson is a ****** - that was a potential ankle breaker

And as for Andy Reid on the TV - fucker Kevin Webster wannabe

[Mellin]

Andy Reid's been on the Guinness.

[kippaxvilla2]

Fat Andy Reid thinks Anderson won the ball.
