    Sitting at the top of the npower after 4 games is no reason to start gobbing off because these things will come back & slap you right in that gob.

    Leeeeedscum mid table & Southampton just below it (if they are lucky all season long).

    No real reason to hate LCFC apart from being very jealous of what we are doing at the club & where we are going, hence all the poo coming out of your holes. Fact is, & alot of fans if truthful will admit, your all jealous of us maybe except WHU who have a top manager & squad, simple as.

    Enjoy you childish banter & I promise I won´t come back at the end of the season & say I told you so. However, IF & it´s a F***ing big IF, any of you do get promoted, which I doubt, I will say "well done & good luck in the relegation battle the following season. Why relegation battle, well non of you are equiped the stay in the prem (like blackpool were´nt) you´ll then go down, lose all your top players & be a gobby npower team again.

    Just because we have spent money it does´nt mean we will go up there are 23 other teams in this league & I for one respect them all in terms of a football team that´s playing against us on match day, Ijust won´t take a team for granted.

    Leeeeeds are gobby scum that no one likes & as for Southampton... just take it on game at a time & remember where you come from.

    I'm pretty level headed but that was a bad decision by the ref. it was not hand ball and Mills had no idea where the ball was until it hit his arm - the same arm he was using to get up. How can the ref give a yellow too - it's either nothing or red (if he deemed it deliberate)? Kasper actually threw the ball towards the left and forwards. If it was Forest's spot kick then fair enough he was throwing away from Forest players but it was out spot kick and it went forwards to give a second yellow card was madness. I actually think the action of Kasper not letting teh Forest players have the ball was what the ref saw and he thought that was enough for a card BUT it was not the Forest players ballto have - it was ours. The ref did not cheat, there was no match fixing, he simply got caught up in the atmosphere and failed to remain inpartial to the home crowd's influence. I thought we played great though and I'm very proud of the boys.

    We got a lot of 50/50 decisions in the first half, someone had a word in his ear at half time and he decided to even it up.

    We were cheated.

    The Premier League. Thats where we come from, and we're on our way back there. Maybe not this season, but soon.

    And the peno against you was a terrible decision.

    I've just been told by a Forest fan it was a fair decision and Mills should have been off!

    You know, this business about who can get the ball out of the net needs to be looked at. If was a keeper, I wouldn't want the opposition grabbing the ball and running off with it. It should be the keeper's responsibility to get it to the halfway line. If he is slow in returning it, then he should be booked. Kasper was VERY QUICK in returning. The only thing I can think of for the booking was that the ref thought it was dangerous throwing the ball so hard at players running towards the halfway line. It's just not a man's game anymore!

    odds are the referee was just an idiot. But at the end of the day, would it really surprise you if the Football League had an agenda against teams with billionaire owners trying to buy the league?

    Schmeichal deserved to be sent off - he threw the ball away end of. He left himself liable to be sent off... and was. you cannot just blame the referee for your loss of points he contributed as well.

    But it's not fair, someone unrelated to the club decided to spend a **** load of money on players, so they should be handed the league trophy on a plate.

    I predicted and hoped for 2-2 before we kicked off, point is we deserved all three points by a mile and that is why it sort of feels like a loss. To have those two additional points taken away from you by someone who is supposed to be a proffesional at his job leaves a bitter taste.

    He gave us a few 50/50 decisons I believe in the first half and this pissed off Forist, i think that someone had a word in his ear at half time and from then on he was looking to even things up.

    You guys got a well deserved point today?

    Well if Kasper's to be believed, the ref didn't make him aware that he was booked the first time, ergo, in his eyes, he wasn't making himself liable to be sent off. I see goalkeepers doing that ALL THE TIME! You watch next time you see a goal, chances are you'll see the ball in the background being chucked to the halfway line. Forest just made a big deal of it because they wanted to take the ball and he got their first. He'd just been booked and they wanted him sent off so appealed like crazy - very sporting.

    It looked like he threw it into the crowd, not to the half way line. Of course, I wasn't there, so I don't know. From the referees point of view (and Kasper's reputation - you have to remember he does something like that every time he concedes), it was an act of aggression. From Kasper's point of view, it was probably an act of aggression, so he should have known he'd be at risk of a yellow card, regardless of how much of a rarity it actually is. I've never seen him calm after conceding a goal.

    I was there, he didn't. And I've seen it replayed since.

    It can't be deemed as an act of aggression as it wasn't targeted at anyone and didn't harm anyone. I saw Bolton and Man City players today kicking and pushing each other, the ref just calmed them down. Aggression - yes. Bookings no. Referees need to show a bit of restraint too - and a bit of common sense - can he really look back at those two "offence" and say he should have been sent off?

    Probably not. But like I say, Kasper has a reputation of showing his frustration, and referees will be aware of that. The fact he was booked moments earlier (regardless of whether or not the ref should have made sure Schmeichel knew that) signified that the referee wasn't in the mood to tolerate aggression. It's a very real possibility that his protest came across as aggression and that's why the first booking too place. Maybe he swore at the ref - a red cardable offense now.

    His first booking was for gamesmanship (time wasting), not aggression.
