We just don't do we. I thought we had a self proclaimed singing section? Easy to sing when we're winning. Seemingly too much bother when we aren't. Long way to go yet...maybe today was an off day on and off the pitch... Can this not be said for every football ground in this country? |

Considering some of the shysters we've had playing for Town in recent seasons the treatment of Holmes is absolutely bizarre, least he gives a shit.
There wasn't much to get behind today though was there?

Some people need to actually watch football on sky. Most grounds are completely silent these days.

Assume you meant Forest. But no, town fans I heard behind me booing Holmes on (again) and defo some clapping Lolley off it. Weirdos Whoops yup…got confused with the Derby Reject chant in my head!! Suffice to say you sit in front of some idiots then…thankfully most of the Town fans didn’t have that reaction. It was NFFC fans booing |

Nice touch to boo Holmes onto the pitch and clap Lolley off the pitch. Some absolute freaks in that ground honestly That was the Derby fans surely!? Lolley seemed to get a round booing from the Town fans that I could hear, which was a bit odd in itself. Yep, they booed his substitution but there was also some polite applause. I thought the booing of Holmes was largely the Forest fans. Talking of Forest fans, they’re wankers, aren’t they? And why do they repeatedly sing that ‘you’ll never work again’ song? Is our unemployment record detrimental to Nottingham? |

And why do they repeatedly sing that ‘you’ll never work again’ song? Is our unemployment record detrimental to Nottingham? Bit of a weird one that... Just done a quick check and it would appear, according to plumplot, Nottingham has an unemployment rate of around 6.7% whilst the rate in Kirklees is 4.4% - marginally lower than the national average. www.plumplot.co.uk/Huddersfield-salary-and-unemployment.html |

Ironic that Holmes was the only player in blue and white prepared to take a risk and play through the lines .. Town fans are the fucking pits sometimes Holmes was our best player. He is far better as a sub always thought so. I think he just plays better in that position, centre midfield. He isn't a winger. As with all players the others around him can make all the difference, getting into space to receive a pass or drawing opposition defenders away. It is rarely about just one player. People moaned about Ward but nobody played it to his feet. One ball came at him around stomach height really fast when he had his back to goal, not sure what he was meant to do with it. |

Had one ‘wonder’ season for Forest when there was rumours of a big move for him but has been pretty average since I think. Don’t think I’d have him in over what we’ve got now. Not a fan. |

Long way to go yet...maybe today was an off day on and off the pitch... Whilst I understand the sentiment of the players needing to give the fans something to cheer about, the atmosphere today was really poor. I tried to get it going near me, but to no avail. Problem is, plenty near me thought we could just turn up and the game is won. That’s not how football works. The only ones 'near' me who thought turning up would get the desired result were the players.. Those near me have been here before, more than once. Seen more 'false Dawns' than a transvestite bar in Amsterdam.. |

Thought Holmes was the best of our offensive players even in just the time he was on on. The only one who actually caused them problems.
Didn't hear it from our fans myself, but if any were booing him when he came on , then what can you say?? Utter bellends that frankly the club would be better off without their 'support'.

He's been inept at times but his desire is clear to see and at least he tried to shift the play, change gear etc. To be fair, he's never had a run in the side in his best position - can we blame him? |

Didn't hear it from our fans myself, but if any were booing him when he came on , then what can you say?? Utter bellends that frankly the club would be better off without their 'support'. Quite a few of our subs make reasonable impacts on games. Start them and its often much less? I'm not sure which town some of the fans have been watching for the last few seasons? If they have been watching a consistently good team where results ran from week to week and defeats were always unlucky and provided decent fighting performances, they weren't watching the same town as me? It started poorly and got progressively worse and less effective, de ja vu? At least we may well do better away next week, which is a step up from previous seasons. The Fulham mauling, the speed at which Stoke equalised and Saturdays ineffective slog are as much a pointer to where we are as the last minute blades win and the stroll at Blackpool.  Inconsistent and capable of good and bad in the same week. It's better than losing week in week out. Never booed my team, it's counter productive especially with todays players. |

Definitely loads up in North Notts (practically every town around Mansfield is a pit town), but there were a fair few in and around Nottingham too (Bestwood, Gedling, Wollaton, Clifton, Cinderhill etc.) It doesn't sounds particularly romantic though, so they'd have you believe the Nottingham legacy is bikes and fags... |

Was ironic that the leader of the Notts miners Neil Greatrex turned out to be a crook, getting sent down for nicking 150k of his "democratic Union of mineworkers" dough
