    Deliberately seeking relegation so that you can enjoy relegating us to League One. Absolute b******s.

    Thin gruel in these uncertain times but nice assist from Silva for Ayew at SP yesterday!
    The fact that JA couldn't control the ball and TS wasn't sent off was sweet. Sweeter was the assist TS made for the Chelsea equaliser.

    Together with AFC not receiving either of two possible penalties was something to cling onto before today...

    Another article on VAR criticism but does seem for 2 of the decisions talked about the pundits quoted generally agree with the decision made.

    Now you could say almost everyone in the piece will be biased in one way or another.

    Certainly does sound like Silva was lucky but the 2 guys sent off were probably justified.

    Can never be resolved of course, but if everyone just accepted the ref’s decision (made honestly) and not look for a black or white answer we wouldn’t need this nonsense.

    Haaland will probably score in every game !

    Wolves sack their manager - to show the difference they have only scored 3 goals all season .

    Haaland is an anomaly.

    I can't wait until he scores 10 in a game vs us.

    Had just come into this thread to post how lucky we were that we didn’t have to play against him last season.
    Fortunately he will have retired by the time we are back in the prem.

    Haaland is an absolute animal. He's going to get crazy numbers this season.

    Forest looking like a team who have a lot of new players..

    Cannot contain Maddison .

    Copper will be snapped up by someone else if sacked ASAP.

    Yep. The hundreds of new signings will have been the last thing Cooper would have wanted and presumably the owner will now sack him ?!?!

    Shame the timing wasn’t quite right for us for when he is inevitably unfairly sacked in the not to distant future.

    I wonder if Dennis wishes he had hung on for a different move?

    Good shout, but would the Forest owner go for the pragmatic option?

    Boro might want to hang on in appointing RE, with Cooper surely available by the end of the night.

    Or one that will demand what he wants .

    Surely Cooper didn’t ask for all these players ?!

    I think that was the kick up the arse your side needed as a result. Yes Forest are poor at that level atm, but it does seem they have spent a load of money on absolute rubbish so far. Either that or Cooper is out of the depth like most of our previous managers were in the PL. Leicester have a strong squad, I cannot see your lot struggling all season. Just make sure you bring dirty Leeds and Muff down instead along with Fulham.

    Cooper saying at Forest till 2025.

    Well in theory but still reckon he'll be sacked at some point unless Forest form picks up.

    Owners probably saw the potential backlash of sacking a popular manager the fans could relate to..

    Fulham also bought an enrmous job-lot of players and went down. Difficult for Cooper to make an instant team out of that collection.

    Well when a club dabbles in that sort of witchcraft most of the other clubs distance themselves from it. I'm pretty sure Lego Head would of kept them up regardless of the takeover. All they can do now is wait a few years till the amass a side capable of challenging for the title. We still have the memories of the "triple" over them. :)
