[Sir Alf]

Gift from Areola. Cannot play with his feet as we knew. Potter needs a new keeper as we knew too if we want to play controlled possession

Awful awful goal. Schoolboy level.  

Heavy defeat incoming

[only1billybonds]

Totally unacceptable at the supposed top level of football.

[El Scorchio]

That’s unforgivable shit from Areola. What a tit. 

[Keep dreaming]

Hahaha, what a dross side we are.

And with Soucek, Rodriguez and Prowse, we more or like have a void midfield 

[ragingbull]

Absolute stupidity we should be looking to get rid of Areola next season.

[Dick Shaftsbury]

fucking pub team howler

[Maverick180180]

This playing it out of the back from goal kicks is embarrassing 
if you can’t coach the players to do it without putting themselves in the shit, stop fucking doing it 

 

 

Fuck me!

[Mad Ferret]

Areola what a cսnt.

[nychammer]

Areola what a twat. We can do without gifting goals like that

[goose]

There’s shit and there’s West Ham levels of shit.

[mallard]

That’s what happens when you fuck around at the back 

[Gaffer58]

Is Fulkrieg still on the naughty step for saying the truth?

[nychammer]

good start from both sides. Areola keeping us in great save!

[Takashi Miike]

he, like most LBs, struggled against the best RW the premier league has seen and hasn't been seen since

You don't long him off out the squad selection altogether if that was the case in just 1 game against 1 of the very best attackers in the world. If he aint injured it's shocking management.

 

 

 

 

do you think alvarez has been injured? I don't, so I wouldn't believe a thing the dull cսnt says regarding scarles

[Keep dreaming]

What a shit lineup. 

[Any Old Iron]

Home being a disadvantage and  Forest not being shit like Man Utd are then this is going to be very tough. We’ll do well to get a draw with that line-up. 

[eusebiovic]

Chris Wood always scores against us (who doesn't these days) and I think Forest are too good for us so I am expecting a loss if I am honest.

However I note Paqueta is not in the starting 11, and if I am wrong and we do pick up another 3pts today it will be the 4th win without him since Potter started. That would answer a few questions about how important he is to the team
 

Aye, Wood is the new Callum Wilson and the old Kevin Davies rolled into one package...

I understand the logic in keeping a winning team. But disappointing not to have any academy players in the squad yet again. I would have liked Orford to get a few minutes at least, and what has happened to Scarles?

I was discussing the same thing with my son this morning. I would have thought this is the perfect scenario for getting the youth team in. Also provides cover for Potter as people would go easy on him for losing as he is clearly experimenting and trying to progress the youngsters in the team. My son was of the opinion he's under too much pressure already and is desperate for results.

Any yes, what's the story with Scarles?

[BRANDED]

Maybe Rodrguez is bumming someone?

[Massive Attack]

Wow.7 Defensive player's starting at Home to Forest. Gutless!

And not 1 fucking Academy kid!

Not "Graham's XI" or "The Bosses XI" or "Our XI", but "Potter's XI".
