He is worth watching for his meltdowns. Brilliant. Especially the Chelsea 4-3 defeat when he trashed his bedroom in his pj bottoms.
Grade a walloper
Didn’t know he was / is a forest fan.

 

[Throbber_for_Dunk]

I use it and he never appears on it. I guess it depends who you follow..

Maybe you've been fortunate, I even created a new twitter account because I was sick of being recommended twats like him and Liverpool fans up to their usual behaviour, and lo and behold....

Enjoy it while you can!

Put it on 'following' not 'for you'

A week is a long time in football, around this time 7 days ago it was the build up to the Brum game where we played well enough. However they were so clinical and had so much class in areas of the pitch, we simply couldn’t match them at the end of the day.

Then Tuesday night we go and put in a decent performance first half against Crawley to be sucker punched and concede early in the second half. We then take 20 mins to try to get our heads right before getting back into our stride before conceding again which was game over at 2-0 before adding a deserved third at the death. Its hard to be too down on us having got no points from one game you expect to lose and one you don’t but therein is the beauty of football.

I expect another tough game against an already decent looking Stockport side today, we haven’t been doing that well at SB this season in all comps. It would be nice if we could start a run of games where we don’t actually lose in front of the home fans so I am expecting a draw today, another loss and the negativity would soon crank up even more on our forums.

I think Mark Goldbridge is just an internet persona made by him. In reality he’s a Forest fan called Brent. Charlton have signed him up to try and attract younger fans to the club, which isn’t the worst thing.

This is it. I'm fairly left wing so Twitters algorithms seem to think I would like to see Right Wing culture war accounts so my 'For You' is a bloody bombsite with all the worst sorts of people.

Twitter's owner is a right wing nut tbf, that's why you see right wing stuff.

 

[Conker]

That’s true, but twitter is populated by nut jobs on both sides, in their own little echo chamber.

That stuff is definitely amplified, but also the fact that now the place is pretty much lawless means there is far more extreme stuff.

 

[BRFC_Gas]

Idiot Shaq Forde. Kicking the ball away when on a yellow. Mindless. Ref is all Reading though

 

[Luke Imp]

Four changes for us and a couple of big calls from Skubala - Montsma at CB for his first start since March 2023 and Hackett in for his first start since April at LWB.

It's hardly a side that screams defensive solidity in my opinion but I do think Skubala is wanting to get a bit more attacking output into the side hence a ball playing CB in Montsma and a winger at LWB in Hackett.

 

[Master D]

Watched the Mansfield Brum game. Good quality game, could have been a winner if Evans actually took a shot when he was clean through, don't know what he was doing there. Birmingham could have as well if Dykes didn't have the turning circle of an 18-wheeler.

Birmingham will still win the league, when you're bringing the likes of May and Leonard off the bench you can't fail to. When they pass it round quickly and go up the gears they are on another level to anyone here, they stuck it on big time towards the end there.

 

[Conker]

Evans should have won the game for Mansfield, when we equalised Birmingham were rattled.

Our fitness and work rate is unbelievable

 

[AdamStag]

Yeah Evans finish was unlike him tbh, but given his composure for the finish tuesday he can’t be blamed though it was out of character,

Appreciate those here saying we should’ve won it, meh fair enough but also bham could’ve been out of sight first half.

 

[Spanishstag]

It was a cracking game to watch first half though birmingham were going to rip us to shreds they always seemed to,have a man free at every loose ball ,after we equalized we had them rattled for a while and could have won it mind you so could they all in all a very enjoyable game ,as ive said previously were where we are on merit

 

[Conker]

Before Birmingham goal we had a very similar attack, but we hit it out for a throwing, at that point you were thinking it was going to be a tough watch, Birmingham created a few chances but nothing clear cut, probably a disappointing performance from their perspective.

We managed to stay in the game for half-time, Cloughie made three changes and we looked much better and offered more of a threat, after we equalised Birmingham looked properly rattled and Evans 1v1, well I dunno what happened he just failed to shoot. We looked more likely to win it after the equaliser, put them under serious pressure.

Good point anyway, I think a lot of teams in that last 20/25 minutes probably start to tire and Birmingham take advantage but our work rate is something special.

 

[Master D]

Frantic first half that. Ref went down injured twice which meant 10 mins added time. We are the better side though.

Happy with that 1st half. Brilliant ball in for our goal. Great header for theirs to be fair.

Strikers for both teams just going down far too easy and the refs not having it (good)

Really...? Still long-ball stuff where we retain possession maybe 2 out of 10 punts upfield. No shots on target, no corners....Mulls looking a bit lost upfront IMO.

 

[denzel ecfc]

Garbage. We give away silly goals and don't put away our chances. Glad we've got a couple of weeks off now

 

[dan_wrexhamafc]

2-2.
97th minute pen to equalise for them.
2 points dropped, they barely made anything.

 

[EnglishRed]

Frustrating end to the game. Thought we'd done enough tbh.

 

[Master D]

2 points dropped for sure, dominated the whole second half and failed to get the killer third goal. Thought that pen decision was a massive call from the ref but no surprise he gave it at that end. That Mitchell for them, what a tosser of a man he is running up to O'Connor like that celebrating in his face.

5 points from the week we've had is still a great return.

 

[YEO YEO YEO]

Good win that. We started the better with 2 good chances and endless corners. Stockport then score with their first attack and within a few minutes we lose Erhahon. However we responded really well, Hamilton did a great job in the middle. First half I thought Stockport were dreadful, probably down there with Barnsley as worst team this season. Going in at 1-1 was the least we deserved.

Stockport changed it up at the break including switching up Keepers and going 5 at the back. Assuming Stockport fans don't like the other keeper considering the reaction.

Took a while to find our feet but on balance of play we deserved that. Stockport more direct second half but think they had 1 decent chance wide. Our 2nd a beautiful header direct from a corner.

Had a good view of Stockports first penalty appeal, no chance. 2nd one just before half time, I have no idea.

Great game management at the end to see out the 5 minutes where the ref actually decided to start giving us free kicks.

Ref did his best to spoil the game, some bizarre decisions. Good numbers from Stockport, a bit of noise just after they scored and weirdly at half time with keeper warming up, but otherwise quiet. Felt you just accepted the game slipping away from you and losing.

Shoutout to Jefferies who alongside Hamilton were the stand outs.

Great reaction, much needed.

I'd be fuming if we didn't get a pen for that tbf.
You're right about the number 4. Should of had a yellow for his foul on Barney stopping the counter in the first half and continues to foul all 2nd half but we threw 2 points away there 100%

With the exception of Tyreese Campbell, who was a handful, Charlton were rubbish. Leaburn caused problems but he wasn't good just awkward.

Definitely feels like two points dropped.

I agree, I think it was a penalty and we only have ourselves to blame for bot seeing the game out.

Also fair play to the player who scored it was a well hit pen at that stage of the game. Gave Okonkwo no chance

How the first ref didn't book him for that was just a joke, most obvious yellow you can see. Revan was lucky not to get a straight red for that foul at the end IMO.

They basically had one player all match of any note which was Campbell and Revan knew he had to bring him down. Ended up conceding goals from 2 punts into the box which is annoying.

 

[folletto]

A penalty to paper over the cracks. Was definitely a pen was right behind it. We are such a nothing team, Jones really needs to sort out our creativity issues or it’ll be another season of mediocrity. I think Wrexham edged the game but wouldn’t go as far as saying they deserved a win. I know their fans have said they’re much better at home but they were also average, 2nd place is really open (not for us).

As for Mitchell, it’s nice to see one of them actually seems to care about playing for us. Ironic it’s the guy who is from Millwall

 

[EricSabin]

Comfortable win against Crawley today. 3-0 but should have been more really, Roberts and Fosu looked a class above. Its games like today when I think we’ll be ok because we looked head and shoulders above Crawley before we stepped off the gas.

Everyone was getting a bit twitchy after the Wrexham game but 7 points in a week is a nice Brucey bonus for us and just settles everyone down.
