It's the fella with the headphones puffing his cheeks out on 12 seconds that cracks me up each time. That's absolute resignation to the inevitable.

I've been looking for that picture as well. Need to send it to a few contacts..
If I was going to be critical about anything last night then it was our inability to get the 4th and 5th. We got very wasteful with the ball.
But it shows how far with come when that’s my grumble.
There was a segment before the game on Sky where the mascots raced each other. Robin Hood won and was revealed to be Carragher inside the costume.
Typical scousers, always Robin.

It’s funny how miserable they are about absolutely everything.
Interesting how many of them think there was a big shift at half time. They took their one good chance in the first half but we were superior from start to finish. It was only after the third goal that they really fell apart as they had to keep pushing forward and it left massive gaps that we could have exploited- if it hadn’t been us, they’d probably have gone into damage limitation at that point.

If I was going to be critical it would be that we were largely dogshit in the first half and let Winks and Co run right through us.
But it's impressive how we turned it around.
I remember him playing for Milwall, Leeds, Fester, Burnley. Newcastle. Didn't realise he played for Wet Brom.
Dunno about anyone else.
Anyway, Cooper was right about him and wrong about Shelvey./ 50% isn't bad.
Chicago: Memory man.
On a related tangent...
I was listening to Radio Leicester before the game and their "pundits" were doing a quiz: can you name 10 players who played for both Leicester and Forest.
One of these experts asked the question "Did Stan Collymore ever play for Forest?"

Makes me happy

I'd forgotten Millwall and the loans, but kept note on how Wood seemed to score goals to get teams promoted and then they'd upgrade on him and he'd be back in the Champo.
Until Burnley, anyway. And it's probably reductive.

Either 'expert' is doing a lot of heavy lifting in the Radio Leicester studio, or it's the most blatant form of shithousing. Either way, quite amusing.
Great atmosphere last night and I think we got the balance between the Nuno and Steve Cooper songs pretty much spot on. God knows how Coops would have been feeling at that point. The Leicester fans certainly got the hump which was fun. All the relevant points have been made in this thread but I’d add that based on last night and the Palace game, we seem to be managing to see out games much better than before. Also, the subs were all excellent. And also, the celebrations at the end, with CHO dancing and Moreno (not even our player) leading the fist pumps, were brilliant. What a night.
Moreno
He seems to have come in quite seamlessly. Unusually, exactly the player we thought we were getting.
Matchday pass.

Oh, they absolutely didn't know.
