And yes, Bruno going off was a godsend.

Just got back. Bloody wonderful day. The second half was terrific fun. Don’t know what Nuno tweaked at half time but it worked. CHO was much more effective and our whole midfield tightened up. Too busy drinking port now to write more. MotD on shortly. You reds!!
-
Do you have a favourite or is it any port in a storm?
-
Just seen this. Usually I root for the tipsters v the bookies but none of Ryan's fouls tonight were card worthy. Some of them weren't even fouls. And most of them weren't in 'dangerous areas', if that's even a consideration.

It's still very funny though. Of all of those, a Yates yellow must have been the most likely.
-
How many fouls are actually card worthy these days? Not as many as are given. Probably.
-
Yates doesn't tend to lunge in. In football parlance he's a get tight professional wrestler / cuddler, mainly from behind. The totting up will always be at the mercy of the ref, which is why he picks up bookings, but I would never bet on him getting a booking.

That was hilarious! Unfortunately my blocking of clients and friends weren’t enough for a blast from the past to get past my firewall. Having a long work day is not optimal for a match when I have to do later viewing. Onana is soooo bad! The two goals in the second half were just comical yet brilliant. Also Bruno being taken off was just mental which meant we were always going to win.
Wow just wow. We weren’t great but they were bloody rubbish at the back. A disjointed victory but happy all the same. Don’t give Shady any credit he almost fcuked it by being a Scouse turnstile jumper.
What’s great is we look almost certainly safe which is very pleasing.. and on top of that sticking it to the pro Utd media who didn’t give us a chance let alone a mention.
We push on to villa who have slump busted so we should be okay.
On the downside. Palarse almost beat Citeh as they had a go against them. I wish we had been so aggressive. Oh well.. onwards and upwards…
Chicago: Chuckling and muttering.

Jon Champion was very complimentary about us on commentary, he spent several minutes at the end reiterating that although the big story is going to be about Man U losing it's important to talk about how Forest were and are a really good side who are building something impressive.
-
That third goal is just hilarious. All those players waiting for any of them to do something.
-
Second half, on our left wing, what happened to the linesman? There was a long break in play. Couldn’t see from where we were.
-
Wasn’t there a headset replacement?
-
Sounds plausible. We couldn’t see.
-
Not commentary, but Alan Shearer was enthusiastically complimentary MotD. Again.
Alan Shearer.
-
I think he has to be really. We're still a fairly newly-promoted club which is punching significantly above its weight at the moment.
That's seven points from nine that we've taken away at Liverpool, Chelsea and Manchester United, which is crazy.
-
Or 8 from 18 if you include Arse, Citeh and Brighton…
Either way W2 D2 L2 is a pretty decent return.
