Yeah, no complaints. 

Thought we were incredibly dumb. To spend 90mins playing so narrow was crazy. 

Everyone knows Martin is our focal point but it's not as if we've never won games without playing through him. Usually you want to see Weimann and Russell getting close to him. But against 9 men on the 18yrd box? C'mon, you have to stretch them the width of the pitch. You have to. 

For the goal to come so early too. Just brought them to life. Don't give a team low on confidence a boost. 

That Brian Clough trophy must mean a lot judging by the pitch invasion at the end. Biggest game of the season in November??

Yeah i did. Lad on the pitch reliving there European success got a bit carried away and went over to Johnson he pushed him away then the stewards ran after him. It wasn't that serious. Although the lad was lucky Johnson didn’t **** him one.

Disappointing that we reserved our two worst performances of the season for Leeds and Forest. Other than that, got exactly what we deserved. Very poor and they were very good, credit where it's due.

Thought Butterfield was unlucky to be dropped and think we should have changed things around earlier than we did.

On the bright side, Agent Dougie is now unsackable, for a while at least. :)

Agree with Bris about our tactics.. We didn't play smart at all and seemed asleep for the opening 15 mins. I thought we would come out and up the tempo 2nd half and really mix things up but it just didn't happen. 

The ammount of times our passing was sloppy and we gave possession away cheaply was my own personal niggle.. Tired or not that part of our game should not disintegrate against any team in our league if we are to be serious challengers at the top. The stats on our passing must make very sorry reading... Upwards and onwards... Let the gumps enjoy a few minutes of success...

Like I said on matchday chat.

They deserved the win. BUT, we were very poor/tired after that beating from qpr, half our players had black eyes lol.

They played out their skins and we were well below average yet we still only lost to a deflected goal (again) away from home and that was our 1st away defeat of the season.

They won't play like that again this season and dougie will be gone just after xmas.

I thought Johnson delayed his passing all match when early, quick balls to the wingers were on. That enabled florest to pack the area.

Their game plan worked. 

But it's only 1 game, we lost, we move on and if we do the same as we did after the Dirties result I'll be a happy boy.

Fair play stoners, thought your lot were very good last night. Knowing your lot though you'll now go and lose the next five ;)

In all seriousness we have played ok just not got anyone to stick it in 

 I thought we could do you over. If we can win at a time when we were absolute dog **** Ie last season, there was always a chance last night

It just goes to show what a nonsense looking at detailed stats in isolation can be - apparently johnny russell had a better game than Warnock.

Learned a long time ago that form means fick all in these games. You can never account for the odd occasion where one of us just doesn't turn up (you in the 0-5 and the ten men game, us in our last two meetings)

Personally, I hate the games like last night. Us, unbeaten in 10, you without a win in 7/8. Only one winner! :lol:

Weird how many people disagree and say it's laughable to suggest that in this one game form goes out of the window - because from memory that seems exactly what happens.
