Ghandis Flip-Flop

They’re down to bare bones at the minute and I’d say the intensity they play at will see them pick up more injuries. They’re still a cracking side but they’re as vulnerable as us to finding it difficult if they get more injuries to key players

Did he drag his studs down the City players leg then like?

Dunno like think Bournemouth are just in one at the minute, wouldn’t be surprised to see Forest back to winning ways again next game

how long is Evanilson out for?

Would be nice, but can’t see us looking at him unless it’s a longer loan or with an obligation

Years of steroid abuse shrinks your balls and your brain, so not shocking at all really

This is going to be like the Derby record low points season isn’t it? FML 🤦🏻

Just as well we don’t sell them there then 😂

I hope I’m wrong, but I’ve had this down as a Derby 07/08 type affair given how bad they’ve been this year. It always seems to be us that gifts teams points

They might have, but Levy is never going to spend it

There's definitely a Catholic Church joke in there somewhere

From the sounds of it that was definitely the case for many pre-takeover, in that the bloody kick off got in the way of the drinking

Because Everton were initially docked 8 points for going over by 16 million, if we spent as you’re suggesting we’d be bloody relegated man 🤦🏻 Everton only managed to get their deduction reduced on appeal because they were the first ones punished. Forest's points deduction was even more ridiculous, given that it was essentially only down to when they chose to sell a player for maximum profit. if you think the punishments are going to ease off in future (without a rule change), then you’re naive. Unless you’re one of the "established" big 6 you’d be nailed to the wall for trying that shit.

They attacked both sides if you ask me, I think Livramento was equally exposed on a number of occasions. What really worries me about the weekend's game was just how quickly our entire midfield was bypassed. One or two relatively straight and predictable passes and they were In behind us time after time.

it’s what the ignore function is for

Although GDM has all made us look like twats, by reminding us that Hall's transfer only became permanent this summer too

Martins like a Thunderbastard or two too

Tonali, no?

Will be if it takes til the summer

I'm not sure they did, I think he got rattled because they were allowed to consistently get away with fouls, which he got picked up over. Lewis Cook in particular had a couple of tackles that were lucky not to injure someone, he had a habit of making it like a scissor challenge or having another swing with his trailing leg all game. It wasn’t why we lost but as mentioned in the ref thread, Atwell was utter bobbins

Pace at the back please, if today's game showed us anything it’s how one paced much of our team is outside of Tonali and the front 3

I genuinely don’t think elocution training is a thing for BBC presenters anymore, it’s just a natural softening of the accent when speaking to a different audience (or convergence if you want the sociolinguistic term), I mean everyone recognises we have a "phone voice" when speaking in a professional capacity for instance. It’s generally not even conscious a lot of the time, it just comes from a desire to be understood.

Yup it’s well studied in sociolinguistics, called convergence/divergence which is part of accommodation theory https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/abs/10.1002/9781118540190.wbeic082

They might be mates, but they’re not fellow Geordies are they? I find the idea that people aren’t aware that they alter their use of dialect and soften or harden their accent, depending on their audience are either thick, or disingenuous.
