Championship - 2021/2022

Coventry’s home support really is embarrassing 

[Koke]

Didn't even know these two great rivals were playing. They actually give out a trophy to the winner. Tinpot derby.

They don't have the fanbase for a 32k stadium.

Averaging almost 20,000 this season, not too bad.

I went to Forest v Derby as a Forest supporting mate had a spare, not really our rivals these days after all…….
 

The first half was dreadful, Championship football is so much slower, but it did spring into life second half with the goals, sending off and brawls. 
 

To be fair the atmosphere was decent, pitch invasions on the goals, must have been 8 or so pyro’s at various points and coppers dragging Forest fans out as they tried to get across the segregation to the Derby lot. 
 

Looking forward to our trip there.

That Forest keeper clearly went over the top with his reactions today.

Especially when you consider they’re playing a team with Colin Karim-Richards and Richard Stearmen in their team. What is it, 2004. For Forest ambitions and their so called big team status, that should’ve been a routine win - it wasn’t. I’ll be really disappointed if we don’t put them in their place.

That Nottingham forest tifo and the whole of the Trent end looked very impressive before the game I must say. 
 

Anyone not seen it Mark Crossley tweeted a short video earlier.

From the opposite stand. Decent Robin Hood art in the middle but ‘welcome to our forest kingdom’ is so bent.

Would agree its a good design. Especially when to a man everyone in that stand help up their scarves alongside it.

 

Not that their group are on this kind of wavelength but it will get very little respect or kudos in that scene as it was printed.

Because of that other than the fundraising very little effort has been made.

Watching the highlights of the forest game I don’t even know where to start. What the hell is the goalie doing after the pen? The standard of football in atrocious. We are so far ahead of these two that it’s unbelievable. The tinpot fighting at the end just added to the absolute pantomime that is that fixture. Enjoy the trophy forest but you won’t be laughing when the big dogs come to town in a couple of weeks.

It was a routine win really, Forest had 19 shots to Derby’s 5. Only shot Derby had in target was the penalty. Late penalty masked a very one sided second half.

Saw Rooney for the 1st time in ages giving an interview yesterday about the plight of Derby and all I could think was jeez now the training has stopped he is going to be a big old unit

[Tommy Fresh]

Brennan Johnson mouthing off to Ravel Morrison and giving it the fake trying to get round a team mate to get at him job was pretty funny. Doubt he'd really fancy getting in Morrison's face

It's a tinpot fixture. In the reverse fixture Derby had 22k attendance. Forest had 29k for this one. The football is garbage, the huffing and puffing handbags is cringe. And at the end one of them gets a ****ing trophy for winning the game. 

[Fox92]

Hull's new owners acting quickly then. McCann sacked.

[Corky]

QPR v Swansea absolutely dreadful. Plus that Godawful On a Bender chant getting another pointless airing.

[Super_horns]

West Brom nowhere near the level of Fulham or Bournemouth.

 

Might not make the play offs .

As long as at least one team comes up that hasn't been in the Prem for a while would be nice.

 

Fulham seem inevitable and I'd take Blackburn and QPR.

 

PLEASE NOT Fulham Bournemouth West Brom 

[Fox92]

I hope Blackburn get second tbh.

 

QPR and Huddersfield would be great too, both good away days.

 

Cov still hanging in there which is amazing given Robins has done there, incredible job.

[Fox92]

Thought Johnson will attract a few sides but fair play Forest for rejecting.

Brentford love a big money striker.

I saw a figure of £18m quoted. Surely it's a no brainer to keep him, potentially get promoted and then dance into your pile of Prem money that'll be significantly more than £18-25m?

Yeah, exactly, especially with them only being a few points off the play offs now.

[Asha]

Forest are in good form and he's a key part of that. He'll probably be worth more in the summer anyway. Madness to sell.
