A fit Ait-Nouri and Neto and we’d absolutely murder them.
Hardly comparable to a relegation battleWe've got millions in prize money to play for, haven't we? And of course, a top half finish.
He was offered a contract which he didn't want. He wasn't "let go", he wouldn't sign.Biggest take away from today is that we did indeed let go of a gem in MGW. Excellent today, very impressive.
We are just about done for the season by the look of it. Good to see Cunha back and scoring.

He played well but I felt Gomes and Doyle should've been the other way round. Would've been interesting seeing how gibbs white played with Gomes snapping at his anklesBiggest take away from today is that we did indeed let go of a gem in MGW. Excellent today, very impressive.

I thought their support was good today. Ours was tin pot.
I'll be honest (and I know how much stick I'll understandably get for this), our away crowd today, and at Bramall Lane earlier this season, is as bad as any away crowd I've ever seen. We're as bad as Brentford and Fulham at the moment, absolutely useless. No one round us was singing, everyone's ancient, and our songs were crap.
As for Forest, they've cheated financially under loon ownership and still ended up with a **** squad. Playing **** Paul McCartney songs and still talking about European Cups from 200 years ago.
Happy to gift Luton 3 points in a couple of weeks time to get rid of the Aldi Villa.
Bit harsh and bit generous. Feel like it's all gone quite flat for us, playing poorly (Cunha goal aside) it isn't great, bit of Semedo and a snatch of Doyle for songs beyond Cunha. Generally it is poor though atm, and as you say the ever increasing age profile (sorry) doesn't help. Wasn't impressed with their fans though, yes great for the 5 minutes they were ahead, otherwise pretty quiet.I thought their support was good today. Ours was tin pot.

As in, really old, not from pre-history.Ancient ?
Wish we'd have won the European Cup to boast about. Not a bad thing to have on your honours board.As for Forest, they've cheated financially under loon ownership and still ended up with a **** squad. Playing **** Paul McCartney songs and still talking about European Cups from 200 years ago.

Mate, I tend to respect your thoughts on these things, but it was night and day our support and theirs today, hence me sticking me neck out: they were at it most of the game, even when it went a bit flat, 'come on you reds' would ring round their crappy ground. We were rubbish all game.Bit harsh and bit generous.

Edit: also btw seemed like there was some trouble between our own fans, we can do without that if so!
Fair enough, I was in the corner, were you nearer their side of the Bridgford maybe? There was 'football in a library' (as always) a few times, they are fighting for their lives, we're waiting for the end of the season.Mate, I tend to respect your thoughts on these things, but it was night and day our support and theirs today, hence me sticking me neck out: they were at it most of the game, even when it went a bit flat, 'come on you reds' would ring round their crappy ground.

For me, the diagnosis is as follows:
1) We'm old. The away ticket situation has basically ossified our away support
2) we got carried away in the Nuno-era, and all our songs were about him and them. We're left with the songs we had in the late 20 10s, which was the era between the Bully and Nuno songs.
Basically, we'm great. But we're a bit... lost.
These days with AI its supposed to be pretty accurate.Someone quoted GON, saying Dawson needs surgery. Not sure how accurate that is.
Surprised he can run straight with that massive chip on one shoulder.**** MGW. That is all, kissed the Forest badge yet will soon go when they get relegated, he only loves himself
Winning games brings the excitement and the songsFair enough, I was in the corner, were you nearer their side of the Bridgford maybe? There was 'football in a library' (as always) a few times, they are fighting for their lives, we're waiting for the end of the season.
That's not saying you're wrong though, it's slowly declining, the lack of songs is an issue, but really for me it's about stagnation, it's the same at home games, 5 years ago the whole thing was like a magical dream, now OK it's objectively not quite as good, but more importantly the novelty is long gone. I don't know what we do about that (apart from getting back into contention for Europe).
Fair commentPretty much what we’re getting mate…just telling it how I saw it. Just because we’ve got injuries doesn’t mean some players can’t be called out if they’re not performing/trying or manager can’t be if he makes strange tactical moves. Just my opinion and tried to keep it that way rather than ranting.
Exactly that’s why my views are not the same as yoursYep. Apologies if English isn't your first language, but I thought I'd said Cunha was a positive and Hugo looked OK. As for a 'bundle of laughs'; you do get the purpose of a forum is to express views that might not be the same as your's!
Nonsense - they were very quiet until equaliser.

I know, but if one of them as a European game around the corner, one or two niggles and we’re bang up for it. You can’t play the fixtures on paper..It's more about the fixtures to come. All of the top three, with two of those away. I don't believe any of our rivals have to play more than two of them. 2 points taken from the last 12 have made it a real long shot.
A gem? But how good is he?Biggest take away from today is that we did indeed let go of a gem in MGW. Excellent today, very impressive.

After today, comfortably numb.Since the media and pundits were bigging up GON and Wolves chances of a Euro spot pre Coventry we haven’t won a game. However, before the season kicked off most of us would’ve been very happy to be where we are now. The fact that we showed potential to get up to 7th heightened expectations but injuries and a small squad as well as a dip in performances has meant we are comfortably safe.
Yep. Performances have gone somewhat Bruno esq but hopefully we won’t start shipping the 15 goals in four (away) games we did under Lopetegui’s end of season games.After today, comfortably numb.
You can really see what GON is trying to do with this side and the type of football he wants us to play. The problem is we don't have enough quality or depth of talent to do this. If we have a fit Cunha, Hwang, Neto, RAN + Gomes and Semedo we have the nucleus of a decent side for next season. I'd say all our defenders (bar RAN and Semedo) are 5/6 a game players. I think Lemina is solid but him and Doyle should both be back-ups rather than 1st choices imo. Traore and Bellegarde are not Prem players and the least I say about Sarabia the better; hope he's gone next season and he can stroll about somewhere else.Lucky to get a point.
Wolves were sloppy…….sloppy……sloppy and that invites pressure and goals. And we do it game after game.
Even if we have all strikers fully fit next season, I don’t think our defense is good enough. All season long we have trouble trying to move the ball out just like today.
A shaky, leaky defence will hinder any chance of qualifying for Europe in 2026.
Bloody hell.We were awful.
Couldn't string two passes together, couldn't defend, ripped to shreds and but for terrible finishing we'd have lost comfortably.
Doyle, Sarabia and Doherty were particularly dreadful. I have no idea why GoN keeps picking him when H Bueno is obviously a better player.
Good to have Cunha back, his general play, bit of magic and scruffy finish is the only reason we got a point today.
Baffling use of Boubacar and terrible tactics all day.
Just need this season to end, reset and start again.
He does it in front of our fans as he loves wolves, Dick****e did in front of our fans as he loves himself
