    Forest v Newcastle

    What a first half!

    0 - 1

    2 red cards for Newcastle (Shelvey and Dummett), both earned by Henri Lansbury with a performance that should sweep the Oscars!

    I just hope the Toon can hang on with however many players that ref leaves them with in the second half.

    Oh dear!

    2 - 1 (o.g. Lascelles) - after so long keeping Forest out.

    Didnt see the game but i'm guessing the refs name was Steve Martin?

    This is from comedian Steve Martins twitter.

    Evidently, there's someone who's a bad referee with my name, and now there are thousands of English who won't go see my films anymore.

    Yes, the ref was Steve Martin.

    When the vote is held for the worst refereeing performances of the season he will be in with a massive shout.

    I don't usually feel sorry for Newcastle, but tonight they were robbed by an incompetent ref and a cheating Lansbury. I was watching Benitez's interview at the end and imagining how Warnock would have played it if he was in the same position. Not so diplomatic!

    Doesn't help us either - Forest get clear of the bottom and Brighton have a huge chance to grab top spot tomorrow.

    Basically what we learnt is that to beat Newcastle you need to have a shit ref, a keeper on top form and for them to be down to 9 men.

    Based on what I saw of the game, the man of the match for Forest was undoubtedly the hopeless referee, but that's five Championship defeats already this season for Newcastle (as many as Burnley and Brighton lost all season last year) - they've also lost three times in the last week.

    They'll go up I'm sure, because they'll throw more money at it in January if they have to, but, their results this season are not as consistent as you would have thought.

    Whilst they have a talented team, I believe the team they had when they were last in this division was/is better.
