Sometimes the most pleasing wins are the least expected ones. When I saw the team tonight and how well Forest had played against city, I feared the worst. Well done to the players and management and James Garner deservedly motm.

Is this the most unamimous motm vote in got history?

Possibly, but still shouldn’t overlook this was a fantastic team performance. Every player played their role well this evening and needed to fight as a team!

Let’s continue this spirit…. Onwards and upwards.

I don’t know what it is but his composure on the ball and his physicality gives me Declan rice vibes

Declan Rice? Steady now! Steady!

Strangely I fancied us to get something even though the win was a welcome surprise. Dyche played right into our hands with the crossing game as our centre backs are perfect for that kind of defending. Looked at the Forest fans after match views and Dyche and clueless are getting mentioned in the same breath alot

This is the kind of night were we would do something remarkable

Ahem...

Dyche with Dyche levels of delusion on Sky.

Glad that stain of him and the other lot over the last 10 years is behind us.

Half of our season over. Starting to dream of a push for European places in second half. Love the new stadium (almost as much as Goodison). Love that the anxiety of dropping into the Championship has gone away. Credit to all involved. Happy 2026 to all Toffees!

First post but 4 points way with that first 11. Was a C team. Unreal.

Get the players back then we are Europe destined.

Yes our fans were great , never heard the home crowd much.

Great win. Didn't give this side a prayer at kick off but it was surprisingly comfortable and showed up all Dyche's limitations as manager.

Forest crowd will be turning on him before too long as will Marinakis as they've had some poor results recently and still only four points off 18th.

Fantastic finish from Barry. If he can get some goals against Brentford and Wolves then that will spark him off to be a consistent week in week out player and could get up to double figures like he of course did in La Liga last season...

Garner class aswell, need to get that new deal sorted as matter of urgency.

Yes our fans were great , never heard the home crowd much.

Our away fans are always class. When I went to the Carabao Cup match at Villa Park the other year ago they were singing all game long and as I was in the Villa end my Villa mate was saying to me that your lot are up there with the best away fans we ever have here

Down in London for a touristy break with my daughter, so first game I haven’t watched this season. Sounds like a great performance and win. COYB
