    If Murillo scores we win 3-0 seems to be the new if Yatesy scores we're in the nearest available water course.

    Out of the country this week so missed the game and can't see any of the goals on the socialz unfortunately as those videos are 'not available in your location'.

    Which is a pity because the Murillo goal sounds a good 'un.

    We’ve finally got the goal we all wanted on the end of one of his marauding runs up the pitch. The absolute worldy he seems more than capable of next, please.

    Thought the ref was very good too, could easily have been intimidated in there, but wasn’t.

    I actually agree with McCoist giving Sangare POTM. He did more than enough, for me.

    I was only half watching because I was on work calls (again, that kick off time is stupid), but Morgan looked like he was having one of those games that reminds you why he's so important to us.

    Couple of records tonight as well: Forest's largest away win ever in Europe, and Jesus broke Barry Girdles' record for most goals in a single European campaign (granted Girdles never got to play in a convoluted league format competition).

    Can someone explain to me a) the meaning of Jesus's goal celebration and b) why he hasn't been fined for it yet? It is objectively awful, firing a pretend gun at the crowd and then committing suicide with said gun.

    Yeah. Stamp out those little fires. Let's not look at the petrol and matches people.

    It's not what you'd expect from, a good boy. Maybe he's not the Messiah?

    But it is terrible.

    I like it. Haven’t given any thought to the what or the why, tbh, but I think his execution* is excellent.

    I mime shooting myself in the head frequently. Is that bad?

    * does an unintended pun become intended when you notice it and leave it there because you want the pun and also you want the no-pun-intended point to stand unsullied by wordplay? Either way, I do think he does it well.

    AI says (so must be true)

    Google Gemini has written:

    Firing gun goal celebrations involve players mimicking shooting, often with finger guns, to represent accuracy, "sniping" goals, or as a tribute to other players or films. Popularized recently by Joshua Zirkzee (inspired by Django Unchained), Phil Foden ("The Sniper"), and historically by Gabriel Batistuta and Robbie Keane, this, though sometimes controversial due to its violent connotation, remains a common expression of high-emotion, celebratory joy in football.

    Key Players & Origins

    Joshua Zirkzee (Manchester United): Sprays an imaginary machine gun, a celebration inspired by a scene in the movie Django Unchained and a tribute to Argentine legend Gabriel Batistuta.

    Phil Foden (Manchester City): Nicknamed "The Sniper" by teammates due to his shooting accuracy, he mimics firing a gun, sometimes towards the crowd.
    Edinson Cavani (2014): Received a yellow card and subsequent red card for a similar, more pronounced celebration.

    Robbie Keane: Known for his signature cartwheel followed by imaginary gun fingers.

    Alex Iwobi: Explained his celebration as a reference to being a "young gun".

    Symbolism: While some view it as aggressive, players often use it to represent joy, defiance, and, for some, empowerment.

    Rules: Football authorities generally discourage "provocative" celebrations, and this gesture has resulted in cautions in the past.

    Culture: The celebration has become a part of player branding and club culture, with it appearing on merchandise.

    No idea about the shooting self in head bit. I'm not sure I can get too pearl clutchy over it though.

    This is the 15th time that Pereira has been appointed to a club and he is unbeaten in his first match each time. Could we sack him this morning and reappoint him this afternoon?

    It's your fault for calling it a bullet header on page 3.
