“My point Gaz, is that the forest fans on here always bring up europe success, which is history, and then the derby fans bite, and then the whole discussion goes completely of subject and gets tedious.
Apart from the first couple of comments, mine included, how many on here relatet to the Deeney/Bywater story.

Im not the pot calling the kettle black at all, I am merely saying that the comments turn to a farce every day, and I know both sets of fans are as bad.

And Gaz, you are one of the worst. The comments left by many are the reason why I dont often comment.

Good luck to Forest, I hope they do well, they are better than us this season, and they deserve their position, much as we deserve ours.

Seems my comment strikes a sour chord with you though Gaz. Grow Up.”

“Nick, well said, but try reading the NEP, most days Derby fans have a go at Billy or that Forest ONLY get 25, 000 home gate, Pathetic from both sides,when in fact we both want the same for our club, STABILITY”

“Nick, pot calling the kettle black there isn't it?! Taking a swipe at Forest fans and then telling nobody else to have banter?!
Where are all of your contributions to the discussion today?”

“Sadly, I have once again been proved right. The small minded forest fans, that think glory 30 years ago makes them a big club are on here making pathetic comments, and the Derby fans are biting.
If forest fans are so proud of their club, why do they spend so much time on our news comments?
Grow up the bunch of you, its just typical of the attitude of moronic football fans - I read these comments to find out what fans think, not to see stupid comments from Idiots. Rivalry is one thing, but come on guys, you lot, and your comments are pathetic.”

“MB, refer back to this point for your answer:-

MB, you generally make fair points and in a reasoned way, but just get abuse from my fellow Forest fans (sorry about that btw).

Even he is ashamed of his fellow Forest fans ability to talk sensibly!”

“Smiling Red, The Big City ...yet you cant pinpoint what was untrue about my statement.

even when im stating stuff that supports your view you still have to argue

Interesting.. so come on, which bit was untrue?”

“Smiling Red/ Mighty Tree

I take on board your views about Davies although remain cautious. I don't take on board 'banter' given that i was trying to engage with Derby fans in a constructive manner and they responded accordingly whislt you contributed little.

It would seem that attitudes toward Clough are mixed although the general feeling is that there are matters 'behind the scenes' which are affecting things on the pitch. I think you have a good outlook because you have quite a few core players which will not let you down. Rob Hulse can be devestating if the ball is played to him properly and every time I've seen you play (which admittedly is not a lot), he's been the best player.

I personally think that Nige should be given more time to prove himself. These days, people expect instant success although often it's the tortiose and not the hare which does best. Look at Wigan for example... pretty much an established Premiership team and they took years of slow building to get there.

As for Davies, I think he has done an excellent job of building a steady side at Forest, although think that his strength has been to get that 10% extra out of the players. I think our current squad is good, however, would not cut it in the Premiership without more depth.

Davies' rants and moanings are the things which make me cautious. Sometimes he should just be a little more professional about things and keep quiet in front of the media. I'm sure we all get fed up with our own personal bosses, although we don't shout it from the roof tops because it's, well - unprofessional.

You guys will stay up and be a better team next season, and we will lose in the pay-offs I think. It'll make for another interesting 2 games next season.

Finally, not trying to wind you up but, Savages antics in the derby games this season have been frustrating, as have Forests rises to the bait.

Cheers

Forest Al”

“Well said Mighty Tree.
MB has always had problems with Billy..."you said ,he said", then he etc etc kinda kid arguments.
MB lives under that big red cloud you mentioned( just like most other fleece)”

“oops - my post peaked too soon (like The Reds).

Similarly Derby werent ready to go up,we knew that and Billy knew that and he told us so - again true so I dont see your problem.

We won the final and Billy said we had less time to prepare than any other club but refused to say if he would stay as manager - again true so theres no saying im talking rubbish or making things up.

He went on holiday for several weeks before be returning to sighn players - again true

When he did he signed mainly Championship players (Earnshaw etc), Scottish Players (Teale & Miller) or League 1 (Eddie Lewis)...again true.

Im at a loss as to see what the issue is with my statement”

“Mighty Trees, Stapleford - why is what i said rubbish?

Derby had £6 million spent on their protion campaign and youve had £10 million - thats the type of money most Championship clubs dont get to spend in 2 seasons...how is that untrue or rubbish?”
