Go on the Blues :wub:.

I hope Forest squeak through to safety in the last game of the season, so they can suffer for the rest of the season but stay in the division so we can have another crack at them :nod:.

Problem is I don't want Burton, Bristol City or Blackburn to go down either :(. Is it too late to drag Ipswich in?

I still think Birmingham City could be dragged in - five points clear with a less than easy run in, they could conceivably only pick up points against Rotherham for the rest of the season.

Let's not forget they just held the league leaders to a draw.

I'll be gutted if they go down.

Maybe we can all petition for QPR to be given a ten point deduction on account of being a twat of a club?

It's tremendous for us that Pontus Janssen isn't playing tonight - if you could have given me one player to choose not to play for Leeds tonight it would have been him.

Theyre a gooseberry fool stain of a club. Lets all hope they go down. Another win for villa. 10 points off the play offs...#believe :shifty:

Fabian Delph is a banana split.

The other games went pretty well for us I thought. Still 1 point in it though

beIN, I've had to use a stream, which strawberry floating died on me in added time and wouldn't come back, so I reload the BBC page to see they've only gone and strawberry floating equalised in the 94th minute!! :evil:

Scenes were mental in the Trent End! We strawberry floating deserved at least a point from that game. Game of 2 halves but we had the better chances. Britt was gooseberry fool again. Vellios should have played more than the 15 mins he got. When he hit the post I went strawberry floating mental and slammed my golf brolly repeatedly on the floor. Broke the damn thing and got soaked on the walk back to the car but I didn't care as a last minute goal against your rivals is sweet 8-)

Did the stream show the streaker in the 2nd half? He went and crouched right in front of the camera to the side of the Bridgford End goal and shook his tackle right down the camera lens!

It did on the main camera when the play was right next to him. What the strawberry float was he doing? :lol:

Have to say I struggle to accept that you deserved a point :P we had a perfectly legitimate goal chalked off and battered you for a lot of the second half. You did boss the first half though. A draw wasn't outrageous but I think we edged it.

Hope your lads enjoyed it anyway. Wish I could have been there but recently I've stood no chance whatsoever with any away tickets, let alone at Forest.

Oh well. At least it was an entertaining game. There goes the season for us. Roll on 17/18!

Tight first half. I think one goal will probably be enough to settle this one.

Re The disallowed goal - ref had blown before the shot had even been taken and our players stopped. Putting the ball in the net when the defence has already stopped is different from having a goal disallowed when ref blows after ball us in the net.

Our first half was great. Especially first 20-25 mins. We had several half chances. Plus it's commonly accepted that Brereton was fouled in box right before the corner was won for the 2-2 goal. Speaking of which, here is the goal you missed.....

I'm almost certain that's not true! I'll have to watch it back but from what I remember Smith dropped the ball and it was kicked into the net on the half volley. I could be wrong.

I've heard Brereton clearly dived and it should never have been a corner. I'm not surprised to learn we're being exposed to polarised perspectives! :P

Will have to catch the highlights programme tomorrow. I'm really drunk at the moment watching some gooseberry fool wannabe sport where a bunch of overgrown posh twats compete to see who's​the best at cuddling a misshapen ball.

The ball is in the roof of the net when the whistle goes, KingK :P.

The penalty is a tougher one to call. I'd need an impartial viewer to give me their opinion, because I think he goes down far too easily; the ref should have yellow carded him for diving and given us a free kick instead of allowing play to continue. I'm biased though, obviously.

Isn't he wildly anti-Semitic, or am I thinking of one of the other ones?
