That shot swerved very, very late. Onana had already shifted his weight to his right when the ball went the other way, I wouldn’t blame him at all.

When did the wheels fall off at Aberdeen? They were top of the table weren't they?

In 1978, yes. Every week since then it’s been Celtic or Rangers.

Almost, Dundee United won it in 1983 and Aberdeen won it in 1984 and 1985. The following year Hearts, somehow, manged to throw it away on the last day whilst a win ahead and 4 better off on goal difference than Celtic.

I actually accepted the Forest result at the time because I thought they were a half decent team before the game. Ipswich and Saints were dissapointing. The Wolves game, we did what we needed to for 85mins. Then for whatever reason, we collapsed with two sloppy goals. Their equaliser starting in a 1:4 attack and pass which you'd put you money on a proff footballer to be able to make. Their equaliser still needed a deflection right in to the top corner from memory. It was a freak ending and even the most pessimistic fan would not have see a draw coming when we are 2 goals up on 86mins. That result, still is, the most pissed off I've been for a while.

True, and well done them. But Toney is about the only high profile sale they have made. If bigger teams had poached the amount of players that have been from us then im sure Brentford would be looking to re-invest like we have. Its not like we're going to spend £200m every year. You take away 5 or 6 of Brentford's best players and they're a relegation team, and so the need to spend becomes imperative. We're both doing well. Maybe we're just a few years ahead in the process. Continued success for Brentford will mean bigger teams do sniff around their players, and so the process of needing to re-invest starts...

Agree with this. Forest were in top form and we made them look pretty ordinary. Didn't Welbz miss a sitter to make it 3-1 before they equalised? Ipswich were battered but defended very well although they had best chance to win it albeit their only chance of the match! Wolves is the 1 we blew it simply because of 1 glaring misplaced pass. The Southampton game was poor 2nd half, as if we thought we'd win whatever!

Tottenham 2-0 up against Chelsea. Both goals coming from Cucurella slipping.

Makes me feel a little less grumpy. :lolol:
