Didn’t know Stuart Attwell was pre-programmed with a 2 second delay!

Premier league isn't he? Needs VAR to make any decisions. His lino's are no help either.

Need a goal with all this possession, worried about the sucker punch! Keep it going we look great

It's frustrating that Twine is ineligible. Feels like with some of those chips and flicks he showed against Watford we'd have had one or two proper chances already.

This is a lot of impressive ball retention, proving and recycling, but there's just not quite been a spark that fires an actual shot at their goal.

Good football, but just needs one more piece of quality.

Playing so well, just need that goal that we probably deserve from somewhere. Conways touch is just a little off at the moment but he getting into some good positions.

We need a Scott Twine type player.

Hopefully we can get someone like him in til the end of the season for the league.

We have played very well. The FAC seems to suit us. 

Best half I have seen from Mehmeti, for the first time he has not been missing passing opportunities or holding onto the ball too long. 

A game that can go either way. All to play for.

Good half. Not outclassed or outplayed by another team above us.

Mehmeti is an enigma, either going to do something special or continue to frustrate, do like him though.

Did laugh, apparently Ross McCrorie has had a great season according to the commentator.

Best 45 in years. All outstanding. 

Mehmeti on fire. Quote, Mehmeti on fire.

Pray god history doesn't repeat with a Nuno Espirito blah blah team being given a chasing only to come out on top. 

Shame the referee isn't reffing what he sees but what he thinks is happening based on the West Ham game, eg James booking was a joke.

Fair play - you were miles better than us. This is the worst we’ve played for some time. It looks like we were on the piss  last night and had a hair of the dog before kick off. If Nuno doesn’t wake them up at half time you’ll deservedly go through.

Given the context of where are right now as a team, and Forest being prem, then my view of the first half might be a bit critical - but only because I know we’ve got more than this.

Good control of the ball, but too predictable IMO, there’s a diag begging to be hit to Pring, and presumably Ross from the other side but we take 2-3 passes to get there. Only in the last couple of minutes did we actually try it.

That or the triangle pass into Annis and bounce it off to Pring looks like it’s been on a few times.

For all the ball we’ve not created a lot and I feel for Tommy, nothing to feed off so far.

Its certainly not been bad, we’ve looked comfortable - maybe a bit too comfortable.

I’m sure Forest have more to show here, but I’m also confident we have too.

Atmosphere is a bit flat too, game needs a spark.

Passing it really well.  Enjoyable to watch. From that half, you wouldn’t think they are a division above us. Final ball/cross needs to be better though - for example, as Manning said in the week, that’s where Pring needs to improve; he gets into some great positions.
