i was wondering what game people thought we played best in for 90mins. every win i have seen this season has had a period where the opposition have been allowed to get back into it, but for me it has to be yeovil, what a comeback!
i didnt think we were too bad, the second half was an awesome performance. Col******r was a good display too[b said:Quote[/b] (Beefy @ Jan. 05 2006,21:07)]We were rubbish in the first half against Yeovil.
I've not seen us have a sustained 90 minutes in which we can honestly say we were the better side. Barnet in the Cup is the closest I'd guess.
I wouldn't say the Barnet game was the best 90 mins this season from what i saw, they had spells in the first half when they were on top.[b said:Quote[/b] (Beefy @ Jan. 05 2006,21:07)]We were rubbish in the first half against Yeovil.

Funny how the end result influences people's memory of the 90 minutes. We gifted you both your first and second goals, and after our equaliser we were the better team for a good spell. Following the second goal you were the better side in a fairly open game and killed it off like a good team. We were certainly in the game and for long periods.[b said:Quote[/b] (Dave the Shrimper @ Jan. 05 2006,22:22)]I dont think the win at Bradford got enough credit. We had just lost the first game of the season so morale may have been low and Valley Parade and the surrounding areas are not the most welcoming.
They started well but never looked like scoring and once we edged infront never gave them a sniff really. The did only have 10 men so guess hat helped a bi.
2nd would be Bristol City away and 3rd Col U - as thought they were never really in the game either....

Its special to me for walking pasy the North Bank on the way home and seeing the look of upset on your trampy fans faces[b said:Quote[/b] (tr0ublegum @ Jan. 05 2006,23:08)]Funny how the end result influences people's memory of the 90 minutes.

At the end of the day you won 3-1 in the derby, but I must say I'm mighty surprised if that's in the top of the table side's best 3 performances of the season.
I was just going to post the same thing.[b said:Quote[/b] (Kris @ Jan. 06 2006,01:46)]For me, Forest at home would probably rank as our best 90 minutes of the season. Although the opposition was lacklustre that day, it was a really controlled and disciplined performance by us - we were defensively solid, rarely looked like conceding and gradually turned the screw going forward the more the game went on. We should have won by a bigger margin.
Don't get me wrong, we've played much better in patches in other games - first halves against Tranmere and Oldham, for example, not to mention the blistering last 30 minutes against Yeovil - but overall, the Forest performance is one we should be looking to reproduce at every opportunity.
I rather suspected that had quite a lot to do with it and I don't blame you.[b said:Quote[/b] (Dave the Shrimper @ Jan. 05 2006,23:15)]Its special to me for walking pasy the North Bank on the way home and seeing the look of upset on your trampy fans faces[b said:Quote[/b] (tr0ublegum @ Jan. 05 2006,23:08)]Funny how the end result influences people's memory of the 90 minutes.
