Nottingham Forest (N) | FA Cup | Post Match Thread

And a couple of hundred quid
In a nutshell it's pricing for us. They know Forest will shell out as it's a one off. So would we in their situation like we would of in 2005. They would rather get more money in overall. It was my 27th visit since 2011. I can't stand the German line dancing fans but their pricing is spot on over there.
 
Don't think we need to worry too much about cup scheme Vs people who went yesterday, we'll sell out but anyone who wants one will get one.
 
As well praised in post match and man of match threads, Bernie, Nunes, Josko all had brain farts or misplaced passes that could totally mess up the result more than twice in city’s own half court in the second half. The second half could easily become a game against Fiyanod on another day. Theses players were over confident when the taking the ball at back and panik quick when the press was really high. Kova bailed quiet some messy passes from team mates out but A lot of improvement needed to be done to resist high press in our own half. Good thing is that Lewis improved a lot in controlling game. If this was November Lewis, the game would have been lost. Lewis seems grown stronger as well.
BTW, Foden was a total passenger since sub on. Not sure what’s going on. He should be better than this. Grealish had a good game. Gundo lively since subbed in. Oreiley defends better than Josko already.

I thought grealish was pointless
 
interesting to hear what you guys think, i didnt think the handball before our goal was a penalty and i'd be pissed if that was given against us, but it seems like most people think it was
I normally say no to a lot of handballs but it definitely stopped a goal..clearly the arm was away from the body...but it was definitely ball hitting hand so you can see why it wasn't deliberate..defiinitely understand why it wasn't given..No VAR though..that's because its us!
 
If they want to do that, they need to open the cup schemes up to members next season. It won’t happen this season. I’m not convinced the club care who goes to Wembley or who doesn’t though to be honest.
We just need to fill it more often tbh... I know its tough but every game there magnifies our lack of national appeal..we dont have any to take up the slack in the south ..if we win the cup then its theb charity shield v the meeja darlings..who sell out everywhere.
.. ffs the bashing will never end...people say why worry ..my response is it does harm our clubs reputation and even our managers enthusiasm tbh ..i think it grates him..doesn't help us

Playing him after using him for about 3 minutes in the last 4/5 games was the weird thing for me. In them other snippets recently, cameo against Bournemouth, scoring against Leicester it is an opportunity to build on that confidence, Pep seems to stop him in his tracks to not build any momentum. Then he plays like Saturday, after very few minutes and people demand the world from him

........but apart from all that you enjoyed the match
 
Foden's heads gone i think. Actually looks bored when on the pitch...srrange to see such a talent look so down on the pitch...
Definitely looks like a case of burn-out with our Phil. No longer looks like he’s enjoying playing and nothing he tries is coming off for him. It reminds me of when he’s under pressure to perform for England - he tries too hard and then nothing works. The talent is there in spades, but his head hasn’t been right all season. Hopefully the club can help him back to peak form. It’s been a season to forget for Phil.
 
Superb from Pep. He played no centre forward and the two tree trunks had nobody to mark, instead he split savinho and Marmoush and played a box midfield with Rico and jack at the front, we never lost control of that midfield and I think we were miles the better side despite their breakaways which seemed to stem from our mistakes.
