    Bournemouth using no VAR to their advantage with some first-class diving and it was never a pen Solanke was outside of the box.
     
  2. Soft penalty. Not foul and outside area.

    Plus ca change...

    I disagree, the league is utterly woeful, potentially the weakest it's been in years. Plenty of teams in the running for the automatics, us included.

    Another Brooks assist. Their squad is so far above ours in most departments. Maybe keeper is the one superior position we have.

    I wonder what our scoreline will be this time tomorrow night?

    In all fairness, they are at home to one of the poorest sides in the league.

    It'll be 1-1, with time enough for City to grab a winner in the last ten.

    More goals in them I agree.
     
  9. Forest should be level.

    I disagree, Norwich have been hit and miss and Bournemouth have had similar results to us, they drew at home to QPR and couldn't beat Derby who are abysmal. If we can win tomorrow then we will be one point behind Bournemouth and 2 behind Norwich.

    Been all over Bournemouth in the second half but seriously bad at finishing, good job Bournemouth got the penalty which was a bit of a piss take Solanke was half a yard outside the box he barely got touched yet he threw himself a yard forward into the box.

    After tomorrow we’d have played 5 of the top 10 after 13 games.

    Can any of you say you’ve been impressed with anyone we’ve played.

    We’ve not played well once and with a win tomorrow are a point off top. Our misfiring attack will have been outscored by a handful of teams.

    The league is guff we just need to grind it out

    Shame Pukki has started scoring again, makes Norwich a real threat. 8 in his last 10 games for club and country. Could've done with his terrible form from last season continuing.

    And Tyrese Campbell looks some player at Stoke - 6 goals and 5 assists already this season and only 20 years old.

    I have seen it twice and I have no idea why it was disallowed.
    The keeper made a complete hash of it.
    The game has lost its marbles.

    Lol....I wouldnt flatter yourself.

    Ive responded to 2 of your posts in past few days and hardly ever before that, and you think I'm obsessed with you.

    What a sad, narcissistic loner you must be.

    Excellent. Whilst you’re at it, better write
    Good work. But it’s Danny, not Ernie, so might have another hundred coming...

    Norwich super jammy on Tuesday yet again - Stoke seemed to score a perfectly valid late equaliser only for the ref to disallow it for a non-existent "foul" on the goalkeeper. Ridiculous.

    To be fair though, we can't complain about decisions against Stoke! How ******* jammy were we against them!

    Last night wasn't so bad really, Swansea, Reading and Millwall all drawing, with Swansea's game in particular looking more inviting on paper. Middlesbrough scored 3 in game for the first time since 1975, how bad are Derby?

    Middlesbrough as dark horses to challenge for promotion? They are creeping up the table and their manager has achieved a record 8 promotions as a manager, so he knows what it takes.

    Brentford Vs QPR is a good guide to where we are.

    QPR have looked good from what I have seen: Brentford seem over rated.

    Both teams are showing more guile power and pace than we ever do

    Agree, QPR have looked the better team. Brentford just look like a wore version of us.

    It's sickening seeing Toney scoring so easily, especially while we're still hamstrung by G&T up front. Surely we could have found the 5mil for him from somewhere?!

    Sometimes being massive cheapskates, as per the Dawson signing, is a false economy. One way or another we'd have more than tripled the value of our investment on him within a year.

    Brentford look a bang average side really lucky to be ahead

    But have a goal scorer

    Yep, Toney turns half-chances in to goals, G&T turn good chances in to half-chances.

    True but if QPR could finish and the referee wasn't **** they would be too far behind anyhow.

    A shame for QPR to lose that I thought that they outplayed Brentford for large parts of that game.

    I will berate the club for a lot of their mistakes over the past years/months.

    But I really don’t see the point in suggesting we missed out on Toney. Our summer balance sheet is pretty clear that we have no money. Not a penny spent even after bringing a lot of money in. Didn’t stump up a penny for a LB despite not having a fit one at the club.

    No chance at all were we suddenly finding £5m+ for him (unless we sold Sarr).
