I know it's been said before, but I wish we'd made a bigger fuss about that play off final. Corberan meekly saying that's football and Hoyle not a peep. Money springs to mind. Then after Carlos to Greece and toffs and LOB to twigs 🤔

Delightful. The fans must be so proud. I would have wondered how Forest fans can be proud of their club if I hadn’t met so many of them on that day at Wembley.

But the crass, classless behaviour of a large proportion of your fan base before and after the game - both at the ground and subsequently on social media - has left a sour taste.

I cannot cater for any of that. I suppose it applies to many bigger clubs than mine. I can say (knowing some Huddersfield fans from work), they expected to win that game because you were recently a Prem team. Made a good point of telling me so as well. You may well have been had you come out more positive than you did. The ref was wank, I accept that. But I'm sure every club in the country has had its share. Mine is the Anderlecht ref in the EUFA cup semi final, who it turned out had a 17k loan, that never got paid back. Buy you move on. As for the abuse of Marinakis, nothing has ever been proven against him, despite the best efforts to accuse him. As a supporter, he is an owner who has fallen over back wards to progress this club. Maybe your owners should take a leaf out his book?

I don't suggest that you personally behave in a crass, aggressive manner, but the overarching fan culture at your club certainly does. It's an ugly culture and I don't care for it.

Probably didn't help one Forest player started singing about how VAR helped them - only going to rile fans up.

It certainly isn't our fault.

I don't think many of us thought we were favourites heading into that game. We were poor on the day, timid and flat. Forest weren't exactly brilliant either. They scored via a lucky deflection and never threatened our goal at any other time. An absolute toilet blocker of a game that could have gone either way.

As for favourites, you did finish above us, yet we were bottom on 1 point late September.

In general, I like to see opposition fans on this board - including some of our rivals, for example marshleeds, bilo the bantam etc. Forest fans however, I've absolutely no time for seeing them on here. In all my years supporting Town, I have never come across a set of opposition fans as deplorable as these lot. Absolute pond life the lot of them. Yes they might be doing ok now, but give me an afternoon down the pub before the town match - with countless sound people - any day of the week, over rubbing shoulders with those absolute morons every weekend. One day they will be back where they belong.

Maybe your owners should take a leaf out his book? One thing I can guarantee you. At some point you’ll be calling Marinakis all the names under the sun. You’re living in the moment, with your halcyon days being in the same era as Leeds and a few other clubs. You’re fortunate to have had that history and the Clough link, otherwise the media wouldn’t have been blowing smoke up your collective arse and inflating your egos. The one thing you’ve got going for you is that you’re always going to be a ‘city’ club. If franchise football ever happens you might be in a good place to take advantage of that, but you need to look at Brighton to see how much your owner needs to write off to keep you in the PL. The games gone daft, but I doubt you’ll be a staple of the PL unless your owner has a bottomless pit of money. When you do come back down I hope we get a chance to put the record straight. As you can tell I’m not a big fan of the PL. I was at Wembley though, as much as the PL would have been a nightmare for us, I couldn’t stop myself from wanting us to win a game of football that day.

This. And the twigs and the media didn't seem to know or acknowledge that the Clough era was a blip, an anomaly in their otherwise win-nothing existence. FFS before Clough (and I've said this god knows how many times) rocked up at florist Notts County were the bigger, more well-known club.

As for the abuse of Marinakis, nothing has ever been proven against him, despite the best efforts to accuse him. As a supporter, he is an owner who has fallen over back wards to progress this club. Maybe your owners should take a leaf out his book? Another couple of points. We had different owners then than we do now. Our current ones (and indeed the ones we had then) are not your concern. For what it's worth, despite our relegation we actually have a very good relationship with our current owners. As for the behaviour of the supporters of "bigger clubs than yours", I rarely notice an issue. We've competed in the playoffs many times - sometimes successfully, sometimes not - against a myriad of different opponents. We've competed in each of the top 4 divisions, and had rivals in our fights for promotion or against relegation numerous times (and we've not had a mid-table uneventful season for 16 years). And yet, we have no issue with the majority of the clubs we've directly competed with. There is no geographical reason for our clubs to be rivals. If you'd asked most Town fans what we thought of your club a year before that final you'd have got a mixture of mild positivity (attractive football, and fond memories of the Clough years) and complete indifference (just another team we hope to beat). And yet, it's been soured by the conduct of many associated with your club. Every club has its dickheads. Every club has its decent people (the LadBaby guy was apparently sound when Town fans stopped to chat to him) but every club also has its own fan culture. The culture at Notts Forest is ugly. Aggressive, arrogant and entitled.

The Forest fans I came across at Wembley that day were the biggest set of entitled wankers I have ever come across. The aftermath of the game, your fanbase again was embarrassing. The whole VAR chants will never be forgotten, I am so so glad that it has served its purpose since and made some very good decisions that you lot then cry about. Hypocritical, vile fans.

Worst day at work since they beat us in the play off final. All of them have actively sought me out this morning to offer their‘commiseration’ after Friday night’s shambles while trying not to look too smug (and failing miserably) about being 3rd in the Premier League.
Utter ba$tards all of them 🤬

I'll bet they are a bit pissed off about the lack of coverage in the media about their position. As they aren't in the North West, or London, the media don't seem to care.
