1. Get the so called big six f****d off to a European Super League so we can enjoy a level playing field Premier League again.
2. Next time another blatantly obvious horrendous referee’s decision goes against us I would like to see Nuno call all the players over to the touchline and lead them down the tunnel. Whatever consequences there might be we will take them.

I do wonder if it'll come to that with some team or other at some point. I remember Trevor Francis leading a team he managed off once before a penalty shootout as he wasn't happy with which end of the pitch the penalties were being taken. Never seen it actually during a match though.

1. Yes definitely
2. No that would be pathetic. We are already becoming known as a whinging team, complaining every game, employing an ex ref. We would get zero sympathy.

We're getting none now Salv. At what point do we say enough is enough and I really can't think of any another team that has so many bad ref decisions gone against them in one season and it proving a point when we get several apologetic letters from the PGMOL.

Wolves had a similar run at the start of the season. They have just got on with it and are now challenging for Europe.
Sorry, I know Im winding a few of you up, I just don’t like the we’re victims attitude. Prefer if the only people who did that were from you know where.

They also called it out every week.

What do we do Salv then, let it go and watch the rug being pulled from under our season? Or do we call it out and try, somehow, to change the mindset of the group of people who are responsible? You're not telling me that our 'situation' isn't being discussed by them internally as a group. Keeping the pressure on via the media has to affect their thinking, eventually.

I cannot disagree more with either point. I'm sorry but we lost to a non top 6 club, not because we were wronged but because we were shite. Yes, losing hurts. I hate losing. In fact I hate losing more than I like winning but get a grip. Walking off the pitch because we disagree with a ref decision. Truly that would be embarrassing and we would deserve whatever punishment dished out.
As for the top six sodding off. Why do we even care about being in the premier league? Why do we care about staying up? If it isn't to test yourself against the best then we should be happy playing away at Rotherham on a Tuesday night.
I'm sorry, in my opinion this is such an overreaction. Get angry, get annoyed but use that to motivate the side. Use that to create a them against us togetherness and team spirit. Don't use it to bleat on about how unfair the world is.

The fact we keep getting apologies shows the refs are either shite, blind or just down right anti nottingham forest. Which ever it is we need to keep calling it out then perhaps and I mean that with gritted teeth the boss man Howard Webb might do something about. I'm just wondering how patient is EM and how long will he stand for it and either go ballistic or say f**k it and call the refs a bunch of cheating assholes or even worse sell the club because we're fighting a losing battle week in week out.

Not sure Pap, just saying it seems to be getting to Nuno and he is passing that on to the team. Would prefer Nuno to focus on why we can’t score and keep making defensive mistakes.
Going back to Sniffers point No1. It’s going to happen at some point, I say bring it on.

If you were a referee and one team came out on the attack against your entire profession. Would you suddenly roll over and start giving them decisions or would you perhaps double down and actually start being biased against us?
I know it looks bad but the refs aren't conspiring against us. It's a shit system and it's bad luck but there is no conspiracy. It's just really f*****g annoying that it keeps happening but that's it.

Not suggesting they give decisions, just that they take a bit more care in making them. Media pressure would make them do that.
