I only saw the game from 2- 4 up but it wasn't pretty! Can someone explain the mentality of "playing into the corner" to time waste? In those 5 minutes of injury time we had some great possession in front of their goal and made no attempt whatsoever to score.
 
No surprise at the end. Fair play to Reading. 1 - 4 down but they didn't drop their heads. Some times you have to give credit where it's due.
Reminds me of the 5 - 4 win against Palace back in the PL days.
Back to the drawing board for RM.

But Cardiff lost, so it hasn't been a totally wasted day. <laugh>
 
The only upside to this game is Shrek was relegated!......................<laugh>




We must have the worst defense in the Championship, without our forward line we would be relegated this season without a doubt.............<ok>
 
Can’t believe what I’ve just read - went to watch my grandson in the swimming pool and chatted with the grandfather of the lad Harri was swimming and playing football with.

The grandad was a Geordie - so I asked him who he supported, Forest was the answer <yikes>

He pointed at his grandson and said “Coz his dad plays for them ….”

The lad was Jack Colback’s son.

Colback and the players apparently all rate Cooper extremely highly ….
 
This result shows that there is still much work to be done before Swansea City are a viable promotion contender.
Inconsistency is a football teams worse nightmare. Sensational one week, despairing the next. Not good enough overall.
All the best, most successful Club's, have consistency imprinted through their DNA.
Martin has escaped too much criticism, this being his first season, with a complete overhaul of the playing style down to his insistence.
He won't get away with it next season, however, so let's hope he has more tricks up his sleeve, and buys well before next August.

Whatever, better to be 'A Jack ', than a dodger. <laugh>

Why shouldn't they. He has transformed Forest, despite being referred to as " embarrassing " on here. <laugh>
