  1. I'm less keen on chants such as "we've got the ball", "we're going down", "we're ****ing shit" etc. I get that some fans are trying to find some humour in our dire predicament, but I think it's a bit small time. You wouldn't get Everton or Newcastle fans doing it when things are going badly.
  2. I'm not too keen on the personal nature of it. He might be a decent fella for all I know, he's just failed at his role. I am somewhat pleased however that apathy is turning to anger at least in some quarters, though admittedly the mood is still mostly apathetic.
  3. Strangely, one of our most difficult games of the 15/16 season was Norwich at home. They were the first team to properly approach us like they were going away to Arsenal or Man City. We found the breakthrough nut it was a frustrating day for the most part.
  4. Everton could be deducted 30 points and they'll still find a way to stay up.
  5. The difference is that Man City have had a real slump. The rest of the league generally now is stronger than it was during that season imo.
  6. Not even four years ago we were in a completely different galaxy to them. Things can change very quickly in football.
  7. I stand corrected. Quite ironic being pedantic and wrong.
  8. I'm sorry for being pedantic, but Forest reached the quarter-finals of the Champions League in 1996.
  9. You know what's even worse? We could very plausibly get relegated at the city ground.
  10. They're just a very balanced side, aren't they?
  11. I know it's Forest, but **** me that's a definite penalty.
  12. Having seen many of your posts in the past, we broadly agree on many issues. You have rightly pointed out that economic differ between western nations and as such I understand that the statement is obviously hyperbolic, but if you consider the 2008 global financial crash and what caused it, is the statement actually that far out?
  13. The difference is that neoliberalism is a well-defined political ideology that has been the consensus in the west for nearly 50 years. Most people still can't define 'woke' and seemingly just means 'things that liberals like'.
  14. My guy.
  15. Though he's not done out of 'principle', as he claims. He's done it because of the optics. Being embarrassed by Elon Musk and not getting donations from him is nowhere near as damaging to his chances of making a serious impact at the next election as endorsing Tommy Robinson.
  16. Farage is doing the right thing in distancing himself from Tommy Robinson. The Tommy Robinson headbangers have nowhere to go other than Reform and if he does endorse him it could alienate millions of more moderate voters who he needs to get anywhere near winning an election. He's just made himself look pathetic by sucking up to Musk.
  17. It really angers me that Reform are able to brand themselves as an 'anti-elite', 'anti-establishment' or 'anti-corporate' party whilst twerking for donations from the richest man in the world with pretty much no push back from our journalist class.
  18. I've never understood the assertion that the mainstream media in Britain has a left wing bias. There be may be some outlets that have a liberal bias, but certainly not left wing. The Daily Mail, The Sun, The Telegraph & The Times are just right wing mouth pieces.
  19. Excellent bit of commentary... "The Dundee United fans have travelled in their numbers". Mate, the two grounds are literally next to eachother.
  20. Not that I REALLY care, but it makes me laugh when people claim that it's just a 'small minority' that participate in sectarian chanting. There were literally thousands of people singing 'we're upto our knees in Fenian blood'.
  21. I absolutely hate watching Forest. They're so painfully efficient, all their players know what their jobs are and none of them do anything stupid. It makes me feel sick.
  22. They were also rubbish, mate. Honestly, two mid table championship sides would have been embarrassed by the football on display in that first half.
  23. I mean, today was a complete shambles, as was last weekend, but let's have it right, it was far from organised under Cooper. None of us had any clue what he was trying to achieve.
  24. It was pure negligence from everyone involved in team selection not only for Ward to have started that game, but for him to have been allowed to carry on in the second half (despite the fact that we didn't conceded in the second half). He's made a rod for his own back with that. The whole club needs to shape up and fast.
