Bet Forest wish they'd had that extra nine minutes in this game now, not the one against us.

Serves them right.

Bit of a humdinger that.

Maybe there should be a rule where you can bank minutes. I'm sure we would have happily taken ours against Chelsea and Southampton and put them in Barclays

VAR used in the search for 'objective' officiating, yet the actual timing of matches is completely random, when it could be easily fixed.

VAR hasn't had a great weekend. Just when it seems to have turned a corner. A couple of howlers yesterday. Not least in the Everton match. But some of that was down to the ref who should have stood his ground.

As long as they don't get any injuries, I agree with you. But if they get a few injuries, suddenly I don't think they're that good.




Did you see how Forest were over the last few years? They've been consistently shit. This season is the anomaly, and helped by a the complete absence of injuries.
Yes, they were bad but out of the 198,7 players they've signed in the last three seasons, they've managed to find a dozen pretty good ones. They also have the sort of age structure really successful teams often have, plenty of players at their physical peak and mature enough to cope with a couple of bad games.

Think they'll finish 5th or 6th unfortunately.

Yes I suspect they will. But if they did get injuries (they are currently immune) they may drop a bit lower.
