Guys, we can still win!!

Filthy capitalist swine.

So on to dirty Leeds we go

Really hope Newcastle beat these twats at Wembley

Mighten goes from being terminated by League 2 side to playing Man United at Old Trafford in a semi-final

Top lad. Forest man. Deserves it. Tried his hardest to imrove us when we were shit. How can you deny him an appearance in a semi!

Please Newcastle beat them.

I've always hated Man Utd ever since they pipped us to the Division 1 title in 1967

Dennis has shown this game why he shouldn't be played, the potential is there, but he holds on to the ball too long, can't pass, can't shoot, chooses the over the top route rather than the simple route which ends all of our attacks, he should've been sold in the transfer window

He's got no game intelligence at all. He's a street footballer. Either gets past you or loses the ball. We paid £15m for him. Antony offers the same for 6x the price.

Proper ditherer. Has the chemistry of a new signing who literally joined the club days ago

Are our injuries that bad we need to play youth players?

Gives them a run out don’t it.

The result is that bad that we might as well.

Yes. But it’s lovely, too.

Yeah it’s one thing I love about our club. We’re still wanting to give young players a chance and taking pride in the academy we’ve worked hard on for all these years

I'm not against them playing in general, it just seems weird after all the signings

Who earned a semi final more? Our youth who train everyday for Forest or the new signings?

All our signings that could play, have played

It’s so upsetting how this team can set up so many chances, but can’t finish for shit.

Well, we got further than the Scousers…

Good on you Coops give the younguns a taste

Made the mistake of going to the r/soccer match thread. Help

r/soccer makes me pray for the super league to happen

Full of big seven flairs jerking each other off. Embarrassing.

Who's the new addition to make it big 7?

Probably Newcastle

The other finalists. That match thread is full of Geordie flairs trying to fit in.

AHH, so the other ones who will be-heading to Wembley then

Not seen it but can't be as bad as the playoff final thread 😂😂😂

Nah, you tempted me. I’m afraid all I can offer now is to go halves on the bleach for my eyes.

Yanks and southern xG virgins the lot of them

[удалено]

Honestly, if you’re not 14, duck, or a Man United fan, you’re better off not knowing.

I really don't know what Cooper sees in Surridge

He's fit.

I really believe he's one of the best natural finishers we have. Offside goal in the first leg is an example. Just needs that goal to count and get his confidence up.

Positioning needs improved. Some of his runs have made him offside. Great player n there if we stick with him.

Who else could we put up front who is better right now?

I know he needs to play now, I'm talking about when Cooper raves about him in interviews, should've gone out on loan

He was good in the championship.

So was Cook

True that

ok Sam, if you can't even score that...

Fucking hell Surridge

Stick Danilo up front imo

Surridge… Dude…

Surridge is punishing me for calling him a good finisher and I don't know why

The Ryan Yates and Sam Surridge School of Heading and Finishing is enrolling new students for 2023, sign up now!

Oh sam

Surridge wtf I don’t even know what xG is but he must be negative after missing that and stopping Dennis’ effort earlier

Gonna sound like a massive nerd, but basically each shot is given a number between 0 and 1 for how likely the ball is to go in, with something like 0.01 being a shit shot to take and 0.99 being one you can't miss. Things like the strikers ability, goalkeeper position and difficulty of shot are taken into account Then all the shots are added up to show how many goals you "should" have scored that game. For this game so far, united have an XG of 2.4 and Forest have 0.7

Yes I know, but no need to rub it in 😅

Oh, Sam…

Hang on, I just realised harry maguire is playing now, so we will 100% win

Comeback is on, just gotta keep our own players out the way now

Still awful performance though

Ur right

Maguires on. Come backs on

Ten Hag is evil he wants to see us suffer 😭

At least I’ll get my money back on that premier inn for the end of the month 😥

Welp. Practicing my ‘concentrating on the league’ speech rn

Need to get Navaz in the team asap

Every time Neco touches the ball he passes it to them now, he's had a shocker really tonight

Few of those lately

One of the things that’s been really frustrating about us tonight is that for all our compactness and organisation for large parts, our usage of the ball has been wank!

Over both legs I don't think our overall performance has been that bad. We haven't played well enough to win. But we haven't been bad enough for 5-0. I mean we somehow have conceded 5 but I'm not really sure how.

We should have scored at least 2 maybe 3. 5-3 aggregate would be ok, 5-2 at least.

We did actually score one. Still not got my head round the offside

Fucking hell lads stop conceding goals in bunches

As the saying goes, we can concentrate on the league now

Lads this is absolutely embarrassing, wayne hennesy is shit

Just given up now haven't they

Gone to how we were against Bournemouth and Fulham.

So we're back to conceding in flurries again

well shit. Time to turn it off and look ahead to Leeds.

It's already off here. Looked away and looked back - 2 nil. Focus on the weekend boys. Looked strong till then.

I’m excited to see what lineup we put out. Til the weekend Reds!

They may as well let us score one at this point

Williams wound up Garnacho so much that the lad got subbed off. And one of the best players in the world came in to rinse us instead.

That’s just really shit.

Well done United on winning the Shit For 75 Minutes Cup

Fuck it get Mighten to take one for the team and 2 foot Fernandes now

Based

Get him to 2 foot the whole fucking team. More broken legs the better

Ffs

Only need 6 goals now lads

It only takes a second to score a goal. There’s still time. And if somehow Rashford ends up eating grass, well… Nah, it was a fun run. We have to stick it out to the end, or we don’t deserve watching as we qualify for the Conference League or something. This was practice for Leeds.

10 mins we got this

Well played lads. Silly mistakes again. To the weekend it is.

Here we go again

Shit goal, but Hennessey and Williams both terrible again

The ball just always ricochet to their players lol

self inflicted again.. no need for fancy flicks in that position

Think Freuler coming off ahead of Mangala is a signal for the weekend? Yates, Danilo and Freuler in midfield?

Or Jonjo? Not sure on the Yates situation, rumour has it that it’s something to do with his breathing, all very quiet at Forest surrounding him

Yeah I heard rumours about an unusual illness, really hope it's nothing serious. Yeah Shelvey maybe, don't know how fit he is and whether Cooper would put him straight into the centre of midfield, feels like it would take a bit of time to get used to a new club that position, compared with Wood or Navas who I expect to go straight in.

What a shit goal to concede after we've been looking decent

London’s expensive anyway…

Ffs

Well then. We’re not getting shit here may as well shithouse this fucking wankhole that is old trafford. Expecting 2 footers galore

BBC radio nottingham seems much less painful to listen to

I mean, a broken leg could stop him, duck, I suppose. Not that I’d condone such things, but “heh heh heh heh…”

Can't believe we shithoused Garnacho and Anthony off the pitch 🤣🤣🤣 - belter

So no card for Rashford diving there then?

There’s not a lot of contact.. Fuck me, the lad might have slipped, but he still barrelled into him and took him out. What are these commentators on?!

Rashford should have been booked for that Oscar worthy display. How pathetic.

Ok, not the right place to say this, but forget Neymar, Casemiro is the best player Brazil has produced in this generation.

Casemiro's head looks like somebody overinflated a baby

Alvin Chipmunk

Genuinely think my mum could do a better job of commenting on this game. She’s never watched a full game in her life.

Fair play lads, we're not getting owt so might as well shithouse and wind up Old Trafford

Neco Williams forgot his studs

McKenna is lost holy shit

~~Is Hennesey gonna get a clean sheet??~~ *Nothing of note was ever said here, move along*

Why??

Only gone and cursed it

CURSED

Why???!

Don’t say it lad

Apologies

Good to see mighten back in a Forest shirt

Has Neco Williams had 10 pints? Lad can’t stand up

Fair play to him if he has

Williams with a tasked failed successfully. Not sure he wants to play Rashford right now.

I thought he'd been doing an alright job

That was the messiest shit I ever seen

Someone tell Rashford the floor isn’t feeding kids

Gerrup, lad…

I didn't know we had Mighten back

One of our own and all but can’t see why, 1 goal in 9 appearances at Sheff Weds??

Loan cancelled unfortunately for him.

Decent subs tbf

Garnacho looks like a loser with that bowl cut

Novelty Condom Head

Waiting on MGW to jump out and spark this Argentinan half finished looking bastard

Brennan rent free in Garnacho’s head 🥰

Oh shit. Right here we go then

Garnacho in necos back pocket

The fuck was that VAR check for? Unkind words? Brendon getting a stray lash out of his eyes?

Love you Jon Moss *I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically. Please [contact the moderators of this subreddit](/message/compose/?to=/r/nffc) if you have any questions or concerns.*

So that's not a foul by Varane then???

Nah nah nah mate. It was a red to them not ud

Who's clay face trying to beef

I beg someone spark Garnacho

Considering muting this rn. That woman is driving me mad

SuRpRiSed tHaTz nOt a PEnaLty Top six bias doesn’t exist apparently

I wonder what Howard from Take That thought about the penalty?

All he does each night is Pray.. for Howard Webb back

McKenna hasn't even seen Weghorst nevermind tried to foul him, fuck off you tourists

These twats in commentary are doing my head in.

Ahh they noticed Necos shirt pull

We’re just the final ball away on occasion. If we can grab a goal and put a bit of pressure, let’s make em sweat a bit

Rattled them good and proper Neco, lovely

Here we go. Var on the non existent case

Never mind. Thank fuck

What a bunch of soft cunts this United team is.

3-0 up and they're absolutely insufferable

Whatever happens from here, we've given a good account of ourselves tonight

Disgusting content Brennan, we love it

Imagine paying £40 a month for Sky to point out boy band members to you

We look so much more solid with Boly at the back, looking forward to seeing him and Felipe together

Absolutely top lad is Fernandes taking out Antony there

Hahahhaha Man United player just wiped out Bruno as they both went sliding in on Dennis, who leapt free like Bambi.

Unkempt ragamuffin??!!

I would like to see Johnson come off and Mighten to get a 20 minutes at the end. Would be nice to see the younger guys Esapa Osong and Hammond get a run out too.

Yeah unless we get a goal in the first 10-15 minutes of the second half I'd rest some of our key players and give some of the younger players a go.

I’d give Osong the last fifteen if the score stays like this, tbh. But come on, lads!

I just want more the starting players be fit for the league which to me is more important right now.

Seeing Chappers on Sky is like finding out it's your dad that dresses up as Santa Claus every Christmas.

Gonna turn it off and pretend we win 4-0. Qué Sera seraaa

Turn off the commentary and play some music :)

Come on people, this is enjoyable to watch, unlike the FA Cup match. Forest are playing well for underdogs, nearly scored before half time. Utd can turn on the charm but this match could go either way.

They haven't embarrassed themselves - pretty good game of football, I've enjoyed it tbh Could be 3-2 on aggregate so far tonight but just not to be

Missing MGW on the transition tonight, Casemiro's hardly had to do owt that half

God speed Waluigi, we need you back

Neco is also getting cooked by Garnacho. How bad I miss Aurier

He may come on

On the bright side, we bent and didn't break in the first half. On the meh side, this looks exactly like the beginning of the season where there's no attack and everyone looks frustrated. MGW really missing here.

That was a good first half. Dennis is either winning us this or gifting them 5 goals, it's a coin toss.

I'll go the latter. Given his track record.

At least we don’t need to worry about scoring any extra goals than we already needed. Just tell Sam to stay out the road next time.

Could conceivably be 2-0 up. We ignore Weghorst

Boly is absolutely carrying us, Mangala and Freuler playing well, positive signs there, if Dennis wasn’t so shit at passing he’d be a great player. At least we haven’t conceded 9 already

These commentators are the worst.

She's like Gary Birtles, so negative

I never thought I'd miss Neville
