Today’s Football 2022/23 Season

Fluke goal. We needed that yesterday!

When you look up scruffy goal in the dictionary

 

[ToffeeTim]

Take a goal like that for us all day long.

Our only goal this year was an own goal in fairness

Our own forwards couldn't hit a barn door

Novelty of Forest is running out very quickly with me. Wouldn't shed a single tear to see them go straight back down.

 

[ToffeeTim]

Lingard got an assist for that goal apparently. If ever there was an example of why assists are a ludicrous stat, then there we have it

 

[Saaby]

Nico Williams already looking better than McNeil and Gordon.

Not hard to look better than McNeil so far in fairness. Just run around a bit and look sort of interested in the match.

He did assist it though? He played it through cleverly with quick relations.

 

[HalfTimeSayers]

That Forest striker doesn’t look very good, but gets a goal simply by existing. Surely we can find an enthusiastic donkey to get in and around the 6 yard box for a few weeks.

Forests football is very back to basics. Wouldn’t fancy a season ticket.

 

[GETEM]

I was thinking the other day, as we head into the World Cup, is it just me or has the overall quality of national teams dropped massively?

If England beat a team like Spain, Germany or Holland etc. it doesn’t really seem like that much of a big deal anymore because their current teams now are nothing in comparison to their squads of the past.

Even with the quality France have, key players like Pogba and Mbappe don’t even seem that arsed.

Is this just a natural low period in football, or is it a result of the amount of money involved?

Gold dust mate. Forest have always wanted to play fast counter attacking football and whilst this is 100 miles an hour they will probably revert to type as the season goes on.

Not sure its basic, and its certainly not hit and hope, but its not dull and at least its football on the front foot.

 

[tsubaki]

how is that not 1-1

 

[maccavennie]

how is that not 1-1

That was a shockingly bad header that.

My mum would have got more power on that

I think Henderson should get some credit for getting into a position to make the save, but Soucek should have scored.
