    Forest vs PGMOL

    I understand what you're saying , but the winger with the ball has never been offside under any of the rules, similarly anyone behind the ball who receives it. The difference now is if the player receiving the ball passes it again, and the winger is in an offside position, under the old rules...

    Forest vs PGMOL

    You can't be offside if you are behind the ball when it's played to you. As Cloughie said, if a player isn't interfering with play, what's he doing on the pitch. Interfering/not interfering is far more subjective thing, though I guess there's more excuse for the bloke who's on the floor.

    Forest vs PGMOL

    I like the analysis of the offside, where they are trying to work out if one player is marginally offside, whilst two more are miles offside !

    Forest vs PGMOL

    At least half the problem now is the rules. Under the original rules EVERY player was either onside or offside each time the ball was played. Now you can get a player running offside who can be deemed "not to be interfering with play" even if , for example, a player goes out to mark him , and a...

    what's the use of an apology?

    How many apologies have we had ? Is it just the one, or have we had more than that ?

    General Football thread

    When you consider the quality of the players at Leeds, Leicester and Southampton last season, compared to Luton, Burnley and Sheff Utd, we do seem to have gone backwards.

    Game week 34

    I've said it before , but some of the players seem to know less about football than I do ! When three strikers (Liniker, Wright, Shearer) can't see that a Wolves player standing in front of the keeper (v West Ham) is interfering with the keepers view, there's no hope.

    Game week 34

    I guess it's easier to shrug off bad decisions when you're nearly twenty points clear of relegation !

    Game week 34

    We have had numerous refs give very poor decisions against us, but to put a Luton fan in charge of VAR is just asking for trouble. The only end result though is we will end up with increasingly large fines.

    Game week 34

    Our passing , as usual, is terrible, unless it's around the back four. Two or three passes and they're through to our back four. We just seem to end up knocking it backwards, or playing an easily cut-out through ball.

    Season Card Renewals........13%

    I didn't say they can't do what they want, and I'm not being vitriolic, I'm just pointing out the facts. Football is very poor value for money even before the price increase. It relies on loyal fans. We have a vast pool of fans at the moment, so the club don't seem to value them. Get relegated...

    Season Tickets

    This is from 2020-21 which implies there was a second period of sales. The first renewal period is open to current season card holders in the Trent End, Brian Clough Stand and Bridgford Stand. Supporters in those stands have until Monday 16th March to renew their season card for the 2020-21...

    Season Tickets

    Forgot to mention that I don't see the timing of the season ticket sales as relevant to PSR. Assuming Forest are operating a proper accounting system, you are supposed to allocate income to the goods or relevant period that they refer to, so it should count as 2024/25 income whenever it's received.
