Forest home and away since forever. Occasional groundhopper. Had 'done the 92'. Currently 90/92. To all fans: please be passionate, but don’t be abusive.

Two men allegedly fell out at a time when one man had recently lost a family member in tragic circumstances and the other man was under huge professional pressure. We never had to take sides; we can and should value the contribution of both men to our great football club. #nffc

@AO1865 @ReissNFFC @fratzroy @trickytrees12 @foxy219 Was it? Oh, dear! I was clutching at straws, then. This is a depressing topic. Can we talk about corners instead? 🤦‍♂️🤣

[Richard Garibaldi NFFC @HalfDecent92]

@ReissNFFC @fratzroy @trickytrees12 @foxy219 This wasn’t a pure direct strike because it took a big deflection, but Jesse Lingard at Blackburn in the Carabao Cup may be the answer.

[Richard Garibaldi NFFC @HalfDecent92]

@lockyreddog True, but I don’t think that a lot of patience will be required!

[Richard Garibaldi NFFC @HalfDecent92]

So, Dyche it is, fellow #nffc fans. You weren't thinking of disagreeing, were you?

[Richard Garibaldi NFFC @HalfDecent92]

The collective loss of form and confidence of our attacking players is astonishing. And terrifying. Not too good to go down. 😬

[Richard Garibaldi NFFC @HalfDecent92]

It doesn't matter what you think. It doesn't matter what I think. The players simply don't believe in him. And that's what matters. He hasn't lost the dressing room because he never had it in the first place. Look at the body language. The players have spoken. Time to listen.

Is the second season, when he *always* wins a trophy, next season or the season after? #nffc

🚨 Ange Postecoglou to be confirmed as Nottingham Forest head coach imminently after Nuno Espirito Santo departure. 60yo Australian will lead #NFFC for Saturday’s trip to Arsenal - joined by a number of staff worked with at Tottenham Hotspur @TheAthleticFC https://t.co/zOaGI5pzkO

@themanwhowasn1 @redsidetrentpod Thank you!

[Richard Garibaldi NFFC @HalfDecent92]

@redsidetrentpod Thank you. I think that I must stand corrected! The tickets sales do indeed appear to be for their home stadium. That’s mixed news for those of us hoping to travel. Easier to get to Graz, but probably a lower allocation. 🙁

[Richard Garibaldi NFFC @HalfDecent92]

We got so close, didn’t we? So close. And it seemed that we’d just slipped down a little snake, but we’re actually sliding at full tilt down a monster one. Our great club #nffc will climb again. First though, just leave me alone to be frustrated, disappointed and miserable.

[Richard Garibaldi NFFC @HalfDecent92]

@hannahforest @martinrich86 💯 correct!

[Richard Garibaldi NFFC @HalfDecent92]

@nffc2009 @paulmorley19 Yes. And for all teams, actually. There isn’t any direct qualification for the league phase.

[Richard Garibaldi NFFC @HalfDecent92]

@nffc2009 @paulmorley19 Just the one play-off round. Home and away. Aug 21st and 28th.

[Richard Garibaldi NFFC @HalfDecent92]

@beags_nffc @Nffc1973notts If Chelsea finish 6th and Forest finish 7th, Chelsea winning the Conference League *would* give us a Europa League place.

[Richard Garibaldi NFFC @HalfDecent92]

A reminder of just how important Taiwo has been to our football club. And a reminder that luck has rarely been on his side. Let's wish him a change of fortune at this most important time of all.
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[Richard Garibaldi NFFC @HalfDecent92]

Wow! Without Awoniyi in the starting eleven:
* Forest last won 10 months ago (Feb 5th v Leeds).
* We've only won 3 matches since promotion.
* Our points per game record would have meant relegation in 19th place, well short of safety.
Quick recovery, Taiwo! Please! #nffc

[Richard Garibaldi NFFC @HalfDecent92]

@Patrick78836127 @lumpus1979 If Newcastle finish 5th or above, they qualify for the Champions League. The 6th placed team qualifies for the Europa League. The Conference League place that Newcastle achieved by winning the Carabao Cup passes to the 7th placed team.

[Richard Garibaldi NFFC @HalfDecent92]

If Forest finish 7th, we play a two-legged play-off in August for entry to the league phase of the Conference League. We go straight into the league phase of the Europa League instead if City win the Cup OR we finish 6th OR Chelsea finish 6th AND beat Real Betis in their final.

[Richard Garibaldi NFFC @HalfDecent92]

@JasonGr84873444 I’d really rather not, but it is what it is!

[Richard Garibaldi NFFC @HalfDecent92]

@lumpus1979 Not true, I’m afraid. If Newcastle finish 6th, they qualify for the Europa League and so the Conference League place that they achieved by winning the Carabao Cup passes to the 7th place team (currently us, of course).

[Richard Garibaldi NFFC @HalfDecent92]

@OnlySteve68 @Seany60415474 I most certainly do!
