Match Thread Nottingham Forest vs Everton - Preview, Match Report and MotM Poll

[Rollo Tomassi]

The reverse fixture against Brentford we got the luckiest point you'll ever see. They should have won by 3 or 4 so I'm not expecting much. That's why today was a terrible result. The only teams we are capable of beating I feel are those immediately around us

Apart from the league leaders!

Johnson murdered Godfrey today.

We are getting better mate 7 points out of 18 is hardly earth shattering but it is practically half of Lampard's total after 20 games. We scored two goals today for the first time in months that is a postive step and we look like we have a semblance of a game plan now which is probably down to better coaching. The 3 home games we have played we were unlucky not to win all of them if we carry on playing like this hopefully we will get over the line.

Dyche is a huge improvement. I like Sean. He should have been appointed in November. I have no doubt he'd have kept us up if he was. But he wasn't, was given nothing to spend, and has no time. I feel we left it too late.

Nah. Off it for Lent. Flight closed at 2.15 so GOT gave me the good news....I just knew we wouldn't flipping hold on

To be fair, these fellas will have you on it again before Easter.

This is 2 points dropped IMO
Forest were poor. In fact thought they were rubbish at Goodison

I thought we did ok for the most part but always appear to get punished out of nothing. Forest didn’t look like scoring. The lad Johnson looks quality apart from the fact that him and his team constantly in refs face. Don’t like that TBH

Decision making has cost us though. Imagine the difference a forward like DCL would make.
It can change a mediocre team into a very good side with a decent forward

brennan johnson was a player that i really pushed for us to sign in the summer and he scored 3 times against us this season

Ffs why didn't they listen to you

Johnson murdered Godfrey today.

Other defenders of midfielders were at fault for both conceded goals .....maybe Pickfords parry for their first ....but apart from that it we had played the same in the first half 3 points were there to be taken today sadly

Let's be honest, given Forest's home form and our away form, and forgetting the fact that we went ahead twice, a draw is not the worst result in the world.

Must have seen a different game to me. Forest were crude but very tough and hard to get past their tackling. Their home record is keeping them relatively safe.

 

[heatmeiser]

2 games 6 goals for Keane

Just a coincidence though according to his 'fans'. Baffling.

Problem is we are running out of games and too much damage has been done already.
