One minute to go. Eight passes around the line of the 18 yard box. Ball put at risk of turnover three times. No Newcastle players bypassed.
Thank heavens the football is so much better, if we can't have the results.

Has Sels saved Ange? Or will 2-0 be enough for Marinakis?
-
Am I being forgetful in thinking we've posed no threat to them whatsoever? The shinner from Wood in the first half as good as it got?
-
I expect it depends on who else will take it.
-
We’ve looked as bad as any time since we were promoted.
-
Apparently we've had 5 shots.
And 1 corner. -
You've seen the same match as me, at least. Never tested Pope.
-
We did well for an hour in the same way that a lower league team does well for an hour in the cup. Never looked like being their equal.
-
Positive:
Morato looked capable. Better than I've seen him before.
Other than that, it was another game where, with luck, we might have nicked something. But we didn't. And we never really looked up to the standard.
-
Ange has apparently lost 30 of his last 49 games in the premier league.
-
Yep. Muddled thinking. If we were trying to clear the ball first and foremost, and play the interchanges where they can hurt the opposition, that would make more sense to me.
-
Don’t really like optics of Anderson laughing his head off with his Geordie mates at the end. I get it’s his job and he’s not really that bothered but at least save it until you are out of sight.
-
In other news, Newcastle 16 fouls, 0 cards. Forest 15 fouls, 4 yellows.
I know they don’t and shouldn’t perfectly correlate, but that feels very like the refereeing performance I watched.
-
I wonder how long players (especially Williams) continue to play their hearts out.
-
Forever, professionals go 100% all the time.
-
Would you be saying that if Woltemade had taken the chance he teed up for him?
