Forest match thread

[TANGODANCER]

Lansbury escapes a caution and I think it's time for a Bolton goal. How nice that would be to go in one up. About ten mins left in Part One and now Chungy, Ream, Davies and.......Baptiste hammers one just wide form thirty yards. The charge but we get it first before they recover and get a header on target but we clear. Now we have a sally and.....they clear via Hodge. The attack down the left and the cross sails out for a goal kick. Five to go and....N'gog wins a throw. Now Notts come forward and..again and....Moritz has hard luck before a nutmeg on Spearing sets up a shot....that goes wide. Throw us and.....N'gog loses it and concedes a free kick in the bargain. Baptiste does well defending and.....commentary lads have an chat and.....Chungy gets the ball back to Lonergan. Bit of time added on as Mills commits a foul. They come visiting but we block it out for a throw. Now....Halford loses out to Ream but a bad pass from MD ends that bit. Ream, Davies, Moritz, Danns, Baptiste, Spearing and now Mills then MD, N'gog has a sally and.....Chungy hit a "powder puff" after some good work. Three mins were added and they must be almost up as we sally again and......Spearing Moritz, Ream.......and headed clear after a good move. That might have ended in a goal, but we have a bit more possession and..Ream....Davies.....free kick? Ref has a word and blows half-time. 0-0.

just a quick one, whats "a sally?"

[TANGODANCER]

just a quick one, whats "a sally?"

It's a term for a raid or moving forward, "sallying forth" or that's how I've always known it?

[Bijou Bob]

View from the halfway line: it's a very open game so far, they look better in possession at times and their extra man in midfield is allowing them a lot of the ball.

We've had the best chances for me bar the one Lonergan clawed out. Was it over the line??

Apparently the official was right in line and said "no"

Whats the score with Hall, is he injured? hes not in the squad.

Has he had a fall out with DF? as i think hes a great player, and its quite frustrating not seeing him get much game time

Before today he'd been in every matchday squad bar one this season (Boro at home), and seen action in five of the last eight. So presumably not.

But if you start a rumour, I'll bet you a pound to a pinch of shit it'll resurface here within a fortnight.

Even since Moritz replaced Beckford, and our static attacking 4-4-2 became our static defensive 4-5-1?

I may be being sarcastic, but I do honestly wonder.

[TANGODANCER]

And Part Two commenceth.....

Much depends on their game as well as ours now. If they come at us too hard we might get that break. If they
come prepared to settle for a point they'll probably sit back and wait their time. A goal, maybe even two would be oh, so sweet. COME ON YOU WHITES.....

And.....we're keeping them waiting in the bracing Rivington Air....and they've apparently made a change. Not sure who....? Simon Cox for.....? Off it goes and Baptiste clears. Patterson gets a cross in and Ream loses out to Halford but the header goes over. And--------it's 0-1....

[jaffka]

oh ffs

I wasn't starting rumours, just asking the question, when he has played its been a cameo. i rate him, and think hes starting 11 material

Wasn't saying you were starting rumours. Just saying it's easy.

As it happens, we could do with Hall now, as Moritz seems to have a knock and we've nothing like a forward on the bench - unless we persuade Hayden White to forget his retraining as a full-back.

EDIT Moritz is back on. So cmon AM, score us a goal.

[TANGODANCER]

A switch off, a poke through and a dink over Lonergan from Patterson. We didn't need that sort of start, now it's uphill time again. M.D takes a whack before Moritz feeds Chungy and a corner results. And....Mills has it snatched off his head by the keeper. Now Mills chops Halford and gives them a free. And.....an over fancy attempt fails. Get back at em lads. And the centre half comes down on Moritz's knee? as 17000 plus announced as the crowd figure. He's up and....walks away so, hopefully....now they visit again and Mills gets a yellow for a kamikaze challenge. Free kick them and....cleared for a corner. And......a free volley goes wide.

Come on lads, get back in it. We lose it ...and here they come again....Patterson, Yarra and...we win it. Moritz has a lash but it's well wide. They come again but Baptiste breaks. They knock it out for a throw as a Forrester goes down injured. Notts make another sub, Collins for Hobbs.

[Dave Sutton's barnet]

Come on you Whites.

[TANGODANCER]

Forest clear but we get started with Spearing, Baptiste, Danns, Collins clears and it breaks down. Halford goes down and .....the Forresters beseige the ref about....Mills? And....an off the ball incident? Not sure what's happening as Cox gets boos for theowing the ball out. Chungy wins a throw, then Moritz another. Ream, Chungy and......loses it. Chungy not getting the good comments right now. Now Chungy goes and.......ohhhh N'gog gets booked for a handball....

[thebish]

ahhh well - never mind...

west ham are winning... go Sam!

From Twitter:

"Forest certainly aren't resting on their laurels, but the Whites are looking menacing on the counter attack. (68) 0-1 #BOLvFOR"

Yay! It's an away game! Send through J-Becks! Oh...

[TANGODANCER]

Calls for Eagles from the box as we lose it then Moritz gives one away as the Forest player gets big boos for play-acting. Now they have a visit and....get to the flag....Mills heads clear and it ends up back with Lonergan. Ream fires one in that's cleared but they have it again. Again and.....Patterson unmarked on the edge o the box? Why? They come again and...keep possession but we can only get a throw against us. Spearing starts it off, then Danns, Baptiste....crosses and....Spearing and...cleared. Sounding better from us. Come on, get that goal lads. Davies, Baptisste, Danns, Spearing, Chungy, Davies, Baptiste and....it's a corner. And....in it comes and...cleared. Twenty to go as we get a free. Spearing, Chungy, Baptiste, Davies, Moritz and.......oh.the ball is deflected to the keeper. That could so easily have gone in the man says. Mills gets a yellow that "might have been a red." Darlow grabs a poor delivery from Spearing. Time for a change maybe? Ream does well, Lee, N'gog gets scythed down and we get a free. Moritz...and....it's 1-1..

[CrazyHorse]

1-1. Reet game on.

[gavlat2872]

MILLLLLSSSYYYY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[TANGODANCER]

Great ball in and Mills glanced a header in. COME ON YOU WHITES.....
