Afternoon all......brown trouser time for Forest fans...when the Bees arrive in town....TF Red and White army.....Forest on the slide....Bees on the up......Bees goal machine in full flow today...Bees romp to a 4-0 win.
NFFC resorting to long throws.
Shit goal to give away. Poor.
Bentley what are you doing?
Bentley didn't need to commit to the dive there. He gave Grabban an easy tap in.
Defensive cock up as usual, we have been all over them!!!
Sigh. Long ball over the top. JJ lets Grabben get to the ball first.
Said hits post from corner.
Long throw merchants generate another chance.
Could be 2 nil Forest. A game filled with errors.
We are by far the better team but missing chances and that final quality.
Nearly conceded from another long throw-in, terrible breakdown on the right of defence let them in again, they should've scored.
Forest do not need to be creative if we keep pressing self destruct at the back. 2 decent chances missed.
Really need to turn this pressure into something before h/t, they're a disjointed side.
Bees stroking the ball around nicely as usual but not enough quality in the final ball to create the chances.
Penalty appeal there from Moses, but he was never going to get to the ball.
Summing up of last 30 minutes:
Bees - pass, pass, pass, shot, save
Forest - hoof
One poor error has cost us this half. Created more than enough chances to equalise.
How the hell are we behind? Completely dominated.
Just need to watch out for the long ball from Forest. Sad to see them play that way.
Bit annoying really to be behind in this. Probably don't do hoofball and hoofthrow defending in training as we haven't go the players for it.
Another post saves Forest again.
Yates clatters Watkins and then falls to the floor as if hit.
Yates trying to kick lumps out of Watkins.
Not sure that was a penalty. Anyway justice done.
Was never a pen but Bentley was simple brilliant there. Made up for his error for their goal.
We look like the home team.
Fantastic save by their keeper.
Poo, 2-0.
You cannot flap at crosses at this level. Can’t happen.
5-2 is on.
All of our nine corners have been terrible. From their first they score. How hard can it be to put a decent ball into the box.
Second.
Poor from Jenvier to give away the corner. Poor from Bentley to miss the punch. Can't believe we are losing this but we have given gilt edged opportunies to Forest and been luckless ourselves up front.
Absolute homer of a ref today.
The prick who tried to pretend maupay done him RIGHT Infront of the referee and then they were laughing together afterwards ... Infuriating.
The worst one we’ve had for a very long time. He was even wasting time!
He was always way too close to the play. I lost count of how many times he seemed to get in the way of our movement.
Should we have had a pen when Moses went down?
Looked like it.
Not a pen in my opinion. Moses got his shot away before any contact. Didn't think theirs should have been a pen either (bit of an unwarranted dive at the end) though so not happy.
An absolute bum hole of a ref, a really bad bloke to have in control of a game.
And yet I've read reports that he's being considered to be fast-tracked onto the Premier League list.
They deserve each other.
I got the impression that he gave the penalty before the tackle...
My thoughts exactly, however there was no tackle.
We have tried to play our way through a crowded middle of the pitch, and they have broken everything up. Jeanvier has lost his duel with Grabban. Bentley shows the good and the bad, but yet again it’s the bad that kills you.
First half we were unlucky to be behind. 2md half we've been shit. Too many players having a bad day.
Forest are a crap hoofball team.
Why was the goal disallowed?
Looked offside sadly.
In ways it has been the complete away team performance by Forest. Except they are at home.
Deserved a point. Had the majority of the chances and the possession. Forest looked very poor.
Oh well. Unfortunately 2 soft goals from two Bentley errors.
They changed tactics in the second half and properly did us. By the time they scored their second they should have scored at least 2 more. On to the next one on Wednesday.
We were much the better team but didn't create enough clear-cut chances and missed the ones we did. Their keeper made several key saves - some with more than a hint of fortune. Their defenders blocked numerous attempts on goal and we hit the woodwork twice.
They just hit us with hoofball that paid off on 3 occasions - one of which was ultimately thwarted by an excellent double save by Bentley from the penalty. Their winning goal resulted from a well delivered corner into a sea of heads and arms with Bentley not quite getting to the ball. It wasn't a bad error but it was a crucial one.
To be fair we didn’t do enough today. The first half stats make it look very one sided but I can’t remember many clear curly chances for us, NF should have been 3.0 up at HT and missed two absolute sitters that were easier to score and both from terrible defending. Konsa miscontrolled and chased the ball to the by line and back heeled it onto the pitch and his momentum took him into the crowd, the ball rolled beautifully for a forest player who is through, he squares it and how the bloke scuffs the open goal I don’t know.
Second half was all huff and puff with little clear cut chances but forest picked up on 2-3 howlers again and could have had more. The penalty came from konsa dawdling, miscontrolling and being robbed but it was a pathetic dive and the save was justice.
The second goal Bentley completely misses a punch but their bloke ghosts in behind completely unmarked to nod it into an empty net. How many gifts do we hand out before we can this zonal marking disaster. Are we hoping we will get to grips with it after a few more months or something, I don’t know, but currently it is a free swing to ever team we play against.
We dominated possession and had loads of half chances but not many clear cut, NF were habitual foulers and divers just like the home game and a ref who was blind to it however our defensive lapses are back in full force and they could have had 5-6 and all from silly mistakes.
