  Decent result overall, excellent first half which we fully deserved to go in 1-0 up. With Aluko playing in the revolutionary position of ‘out wide’, we had width on both sides (with Barrow supported by the mostly excellent Richards on the left). Martin held the ball up well (even if he did miss a fairly decent chance....) 2nd half we looked panicked and scared. We resorted to trying far too hard to play it quickly, which just gave it back to Forest. They totally dominated the ball and the chances. They had numerous chances to score before Tomlin (who else :roll: ) finally put us out of our misery. The fact he should have been sent…

  I wouldn't call the first half "excellent". We edged it but I'd say based on the second half that was more because Forest sat off. Overall a pretty poor game between two pretty poor sides. Aluko is a horrible footballer. That's all.

  Finally, it was so sad to see GMac be a passenger as a sub.....he never looked liked doing anything useful and the game completely passed him by. Quite. We all love GMac but he's been a shadow of his former self for at least a year now. Add to this to the fact that Aluko rarely looks worth 7 million pennies let alone pounds and it simply beggars belief that both Beerens and Popa were deemed surplus to requirement and disposed of. When decisions like this are made by managers who are allowed to keep their jobs, it's time to realise the writing is on the wall. Respect to all those who went.

  OP seems a fairer reflection of the game than a lot on the other thread 2 points dropped being as we were 1 up, but Forest would have felt hard done by if they’d lost I thought we looked a lot more positive and aggressive. Obvs we were far from perfect, the passing was poor at times, but not a disaster

  8 home games 6 away left we need to improve at home to stay up !

  I didn't think it was embarrassing - Forest played ok, despite what the noise is on here. They passed it crisply and pressed us hard. We didn't cope especially well, but they kept battling and on the basis of the first half performance prob deserved a point I've seen some utterly abysmal performances this season - Hull, Boro, Burton, Brum etc - this wasn't like that
