    Forest vs PGMOL

    The trouble is that the current system is not fit for purpose. In fact I would suggest it’s even worse than pre VAR days. For me it seems that the prevailing view is that VAR is infallible which it isn’t. It seems there is an overly over examination of “gnats cock offside” decisions rather than...

    Season Tickets

    As I can’t get to matches anyway, I guess I am able to take a more dispassionate view of this. For me the issues are:- To what extent do season tickets constitute overall revenue. To make the maths easy let’s say 30,000 x £500 = £15 million? With sky at say £100 million and...

    Good move - it will be cheaper in the long run 🤔

    Nottingham Forest v Fulham- sponsored by Barbour jackets, Creme Eggs and people who have Pope on "Ignore"

    Wrist slashers - you can put away your razor blades until Saturday at least. Alternatively you can just believe. Just a thought.

    RIP Larry Lloyd

    BBC extolling the contributions that our Larry made for Liverpool and not a mention of what he’s done for us. Is it just me or was our Larry appointed as an ambassador for our club. If the BBC treated the government in the same way as they treated Liverpool then there would be impartiality...

    Just started watching match of the day 2. They mentioned Larry Lloyd and what he did for Liverpool. You couldn’t make it up. I hate BBC

    FFP charges?

    Never has the phrase “You don’t know what you’re doing “ been more apt.

    It's the same every week you ****

    So despite a referee, 2 linesmen a fourth official, a VAR, an assistant VAR and an assistant assistant VAR . . . We still can’t correct a situation where a referee doesn’t understand the rules with regard to a drop ball. Just as well he didn’t have to adjudicate on something more complicated...

    FFP charges?

    This is getting beyond a joke now. If you can’t judge every team with equanimity then you can’t judge any team at all. The equivalence being that if you are part of the “nobility “ you can rob steal and murder without any repercussions, but if you are part of Joe Public you are going down...

    FFP charges?

    What people seem to be forgetting is that over 3 years we overspent. 2 years at the championship limit and 1 year at the PL limit. This year it will be the other way round 2 years PL limit And 1 year championship level.

    Premier League Match Thread: Luton Town Vs Nottingham Forest, sponsored by peace, love and harmony on this forum

    You haven’t got it yet then. When we are the underdogs then Man U are the favoured team. When we are the fancied team the opponents are the favoured team 🙄😞

    Premier League Match Thread: Luton Town Vs Nottingham Forest, sponsored by peace, love and harmony on this forum

    Originally VAR was introduced to adjudicate on clear and obvious errors, but it can’t adjudicate on 2nd yellows. So it can spend 10 minutes deciding on offside by a gnats bollock, but has nothing to say about the obvious miscarriage of justice when Boly was sent off or the ref giving the ball to...

    The Premier League 2023-24 Thread

    They have 3 days to get over this, we’ve had 7 days off! It took Liverpool 99 minutes after Tierney gave them ball, cheating simple as. That was 3 days after Man United narrowly beat us in the 98th minute. Brighton only scored 1 against us. Luton are not going to score 3 or 4 against us, but are...
