Having now seen this back, I agree with this. Silly boy.

Bad performances happen. First half was an even and good performance. However the second half (10 mins in particular) were woeful

But that's the thing that could be moved on from in the next match

Kudos let the club down. Getting sent off didn't affect the result of that game. It was over but not having one of your best players available for minimum 3 games (united, forest and Everton, don't get me wrong not easy games but games you would hope to get 4-6 points from) is unforgivable

The only positive is Summerville now will get a chance

This is how I feel about Forest under Nuno at the moment. Seems like he really wants to be defensively sound as a priority, yet that doesn’t mean parking the bus.

What’s the feeling among Wolves fans about Gary O’Neil right now? He got off to a flyer with you guys but the bubble seems to have burst now. How much longer has he got and if that’s the way it’s looking, who is being touted to take over?

I think we're swaying towards him going, we didn't end last season very well either, but if I'm being charitable, the fixtures we've had so far this season have been ridiculous:

Arsenal
Chelsea
Liverpool
Newcastle
Villa
With man city and Brighton our next two.

I can't see many managers getting much from that.

But we've looked OK in most of them and probably deserve to have more points than we've got.

We sold Neto and Kilman for 90m and didn't replace either really. A new CB was needed and we signed an inferior GK instead.

I blame the board more than O'Neil. My season ticket cost £725 this season. It's extortionate.

He might use the Jackson of Chelsea defence.

The inconsistency in decisions seems to be getting worse and VAR just backing them up.

VAR got the Saliba one right but why can’t the ref see that’s a red himself?
I reckon it’s less embarrassing for the ref to upgrade a yellow to a red than downgrade a red to a yellow.

In his defence he’s watching the incident and got White potentially coming across in his peripheral vision.

Right outcome and Saliba’s face even after the yellow was shown said he knew it was coming.

👀👀👀

What exactly is Spitty Carra alleging here?
Webb was at the game yesterday. When the ref gave his decision Webb was seen going to his phone. VAR then gets involved.

Now, Webb could have been messaging anyone, VAR would obviously be looking anyway. It looks a bit conspiracy like, the timing of what happened.

Said on motd. “ Webb was listening in to the officials commentary.

Not sure if he had an input
It looked more like a receiver unit than a phone!

Ah so Spitty Carra is alleging corruption among the referees is he?

Well considering Nottingham Forest got fined £750,000 last week for the same offence I look forward to seeing what action is taken both by his employers Sky and also the Premier League.

I’m confident he’ll be punished for it. 👍

He’s a commentator though it’s part of his job.
Not sure the PL rules apply to him the same way they do to a football club.

I know. I was of course being facetious and pointing out that, considering what he said about Forest, the man is an absolute giant hypocrite. I detest him.

He survived gobbing a greeny at a child. I’m sure he’ll survive this.

Yes it’s like Neville seems to be part of the job to say something stupid every few weeks.

Why will a commentator get fined by the PL 🤷‍♂️

He isn’t employed by them or plays in their league

And he wasn’t working for Sky for the game
