Back to Earth With A Bump

Not going to post much on the match tonight cos I've got it on me (and I didn't go so need to get all the info off mates etc). Needless to say we went to Walsall and lost 3-2, nowt new there can't remember when we last beat em. Oh and we also had our keeper sent off, this when we've just been fined for having a poor disciplinary record last season, great!! Anyway from what I've been told the Ref was decidedly dodgy and the sending off was a bit of a disgrace. Could do with going to Swindon on Saturday and getting a result now to get our confidence back, the one thing we can't afford after last season is for the lads heads to suddenly drop. For what it's worth at this stage of the season here's tonight's table with Forest lying an unimpressive 10th

We totally controlled the game - until the ref decided to intervene.

thought the referee on saturday was bad, nothing - I hope I never see a reffing performance like tonight's again.

Complaint to the F.A should be forthcoming.

Forest will win @ Swindon we are far to good for these teams - hence their need to cheat.

What you forget to mention is that we were already 2-1 up before the ref intervened. Yes, it wasn't a penalty yet alone a sending off but your second goal should have been disallowed to.

And what's with this we're too big/good for this league malarky? I've always liked Forest and their fans but they were decidedly arrogant last night.

Hmmm.

We DID deserve to be 2-1 down, but CERTAINLY not 3-1.

And the ref had been poor all through. What about Fox's "punch" on Southall and the Forest penalty that was turned down.

As for arrogant? Were we? I don't think so. If we are going to start picking on fans, then the Saddlers fans were none-existant in volume until they were 3-1 up.

Sad bunch I though.

God - can't believe I forgot the punch - that should have been a straight red.

Just passing thru and wanted to wish you the best of luck for the rest of the season... apart from when you are Playing Yeovil of course. You will have to excuse me - but I just cant believe that Yeovil are in the same league as Nottingham Forest.

Whatver the score of an individual game, I think we will both agree that being a football supporter is quite the rollercoaster ride.
