Thread | Thoughts on Bobby Robson More Than A Manager
at 12:54 13 Dec 2018
Was not a fan of the continually jumping around timeline. Seemed unnecessary.
The bond between Robson and Gazza was heartwarming and heartbreaking.
We’re biased, of course, but felt like there should have been more mention of his time with us. Absolutely an English manager who takes top jobs in three different countries should be lauded. But a little more emphasis on what he achieved with ITFC would have been nice.
Newcastle’s decision to sack him seemed ridiculous then and even more ridiculous now.
The tabloids who hounded him are utter scum. |

Thread | conceding late/last-minute goals - this has to be some kind of record, surely
at 15:21 30 Nov 2018
didn't realise our ability to mess things up when playing at Forest was quite this bad:
In 2011 Forest scored in the 84th and 90th minutes through Joel Lynch and Marcus Tudgay to come from behind to win 3-2, in 2013 their goal in a 1-0 victory came on 84 via Lewis McGugan, then a year later Michail Antonio made it 2-2 in the dying moments. In 2015 ex-Blue Liam Trotter, making his Forest debut, also netted a last-minute equaliser as the game ended 1-1.
At the City Ground in April, caretaker-boss Bryan Klug was denied a first match victory as Forest staged yet another last-gasp turnaround.
The Blues had gone ahead via Ward in the 38th minute and looked set to hold on to their lead until their goalscorer bundled Ben Brereton over in the penalty area in the final minute and, after the England U19 international had netted from the spot, Joe Lolley smashed home a volley deep in injury time to win it for Forest, who had previously gone six games without a goal. |

The training ground? Nice bit of feel good footage, nice finish here, some bantz there. I hope the club puts out another video from the training ground tomorrow: a six-hour super cut of everyone on that team practicing corners. Followed by a two minute clip of Jordan Spence saying his goodbyes. |

that was the equivalent of the two best teams in the league going at it and the game ending 8-7. Bonkers as the great man would say. |

Thread | if there is any kind of footballing god who can spread good karma

then, after the fantastic effort by Fuller and co. to distribute free tickets, then matched by the club, Portman Road will be rocking next Friday, we'll get a late winner and the team will leave the field with "We've got our Ipswich back" echoing around the stadium. Then in months and years to come we'll look back and say THAT was the turning point. Please god, let that happen. Obvs, a 0-3 defeat to a tidy WBA side is most likely, but damn, just for once, can we have some feelgood factor back. Please... |
