Ovation at the end. (1 Viewer)

You are wrong we dont look far off the level, we were competitive against Man City, we should have beat Hull, we were competitive today until the red card we had so many chances, we should have a lot more goals

The issue is that we do look far off the level because we are missing so many chances. That's part of the issue.
 
It might lift the players to know the fans are staying with them, it certainly won't do any harm.

Would lift the fans if the players returned the favour.

First 10-15 minutes the fans were loud, players all getting their songs etc.

People started getting annoyed the 5th time EMC tried to muscle a bloke half his size and losing out. He then did it and they scored.

Half time, people looked deflated even at 1-0.

Second half, EMC gets another good chance with time to just take a shot and does a weird, limp pass back to the keeper.

It means nothing to me but I dont see the harm in it.
If people take some consolation from it then fair enough
 
Two things.gs I couldn't understand JDS mopped a Ball up in space and went to Rushworth who's distribution to the Wings was off he could have turned and started something.Amenda played a beautiful Ball at the end out to the left wing about 5mins from time.
 
BBC started their questions with not ever hearing that response in similar situations before
 
I don't have a season ticket these days but generally in previous seasons I've been subjected to such regular abject shite my response is to shuffle out muttering to myself about the utter crap I'd just watched. Fuck knows why anyone would applaud that, nevermind pat themselves on the back all over social media for doing so.

One of the few ways we can get out of this very tricky situation is to support each other, players and club.

Thats what are remaining fans did. The words of our traditional song say it all.

The best way is to score some goals, get some points.
 
So proud of the fans for not turning on the team at the final whistle.
Really great reaction. I know lots of people are likely to disagree with me (including my lad…who unlike me doesn’t remember the war) but I ain’t waited 25 years to see us playing in the prem only to moan and groan through the season cos we’re not very good in comparison to the other teams. Fuck that.

Hopefully we’ll reach the stage where we can actually score a goal…
 
I haven't got a problem with it but I'm pretty sure our fans will be singing 'were shit and we know we are' within a couple of months.
How shit must you be, we're drawing away!

It wasn’t an ovation, it was a show of support and defiance.
Spot on - we have a lot of new (and young) players, and the last thing we/they need is the crowd to turn on them. FL is an intelligent man and can see what we see (and more) and will change personnel as he sees fit. Let's see what we can do at Forest. PUSB!
 
I'd think if you were a player walking off with a standing ovation for getting your arse handed to you, you'd be a little embarrassed and want to do something about it.

Maybe it'll make a difference
 
The way the fans responded at the end of today’s game was one of my favourite moments over the last few seasons. Sounds weird. But it reminded me of what it means to come from Cov. Some people wouldn’t understand, but this spirit is deeply a part of us. Took me back to being back in the prem and our survival battles every season.
 
Supporting your club is tinpot now. Boring fuckers, atmosphere was way better when half the ground left so keep leaving early each to their own. All going on about 'We'll be back' but none of that defiance when we actually are back and are in the trenches as everyone with a brain expected! Back the team it's the only thing we can control. Genuinely moving at the end, brilliant display of what we are supposed to be as a fanbase

I must be weird but my favourite moments are goals and at least looking up for it and battling. It doesn't remind me of a survival battle because there was no battle. The players and the manager look shit and negative but not sure "waited 25 years" and all that really washes.

The players got a very good reception after the man city game, fans all stayed and were loud. Didn't seem to give them much inspiration today.
