Don't make Grant Holt angry! Grant Holt is actually the African mammal that kills most humans! :eek:

I noted that there keeper seem to be in a rush to get the ball back in play from goal kicks after they were 2-1 down. At 1-0 up he was quite happy to wait for the original ball to be passed back to him from the ballboys behind the goal rather than opt for another the was on offer.

Re Grant Holt going off- he knew about a minute before the board went up that he was the man being replaced, and deliberately went right over to the far touchline, from where he slowly rolled his fat ass back across the entire pitch when their bench finally got around to subbing him.

Prior to that, he had stayed entirely in the centre, or on the right side, and had no reason at all to be on the left. Even the ball was miles away.

Therefore if Forest are looking for sympathy over the alleged timewasting of a couple of 11 year old boys, they can get BENT.

:lolol:

Spot on.

It was all very strange hope someone reports it

I was sat in A block, but missed the incident. What I did see was a few people in the disabled section talking to a policman, pointing out a Forest player, and the policeman was taking lots of notes. Wait and see if anything happens I guess.

Seem to remember Jake Robinson doing something similar to a ball boy at Oldham this season. The kid went running off crying then went back to his "seat" with his mum by his side :lolol:
Who, Jake or the ballboy.......

Apparently the mother has complained to the police and a complaint has been lodged with the FA and BHA, the whole incident was caught by Meridian and SKY cameras, could be interesting ???

Jake did it a while back and people said good for him. The bloke was only trying to stop us cheating.

It wasn't the same at all. I love the way people say that who didn't see it, dougdeep (not said in a nasty way)

The ball boy at Oldham kept offering the ball and then pulling it back. Jake managed to grab the ball and the ball boy was trying to pull it back again (still having hold of it) and Jake pushed the ball so the boy would let go. It was the ballboys fault for being daft and not doing what he should be doing, and that is returning a ball to a player. It isn't a playground for teasing players.

I remember a Reading ball boy was trying to stop Zamora getting a ball(bizzarely while WE were 2-0 up) and eventually he rolled it towards him.Zamora waited then suddenly picked up the ball and threw it at him.

He apologised later during the week as we ran out 2-1 winners:clap2:
